"Going as far as you can, and then going farther. I don't collect titles. I collect hours - hours of hard work." .. Absolutely love this commercial and message! Reminds me of something Buddha once said: "It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles."
One of the greatest videos ever! I remember watching this back in 2012, which totally changed my perspective of life, these words kept echoing in my head all times and right now I'm here watching this again in 2016, brings back so much of memories! Oh yeah I have reached way above what I thought I could become! :) Thanks for this man! Keep motivating many more thousands like myself!
More commercials like these... these kind of commercial inspire people not only to look at life more optimistic and know to stay true to yourself.. but it also gives Nike a higher popularity... More like these.... Just wanna have MORE.
They should make more commercials like this.. this 1:39 min inspires many people to work harder in life when they feel like giving up.. most useful video of youtube.. Im glad i watched this..
Thanks for your kind comments about my work. The music is an original piece composed specifically for the video. Unfortunately, it's not available for download.
Dude, this is awesome! Even though you say Nike never saw it, I am sure it must've got you some other paying clients, right? I am wanting to go down this road also for my video production business and I want to hear from you what your experience has been like from this spec ad. Thanks :)
This video only touches on the first part. You need to conquer yourself first (like this video is saying), then you go and test your best against others best.
" I don't wanna be a superstar I wanna be better than that. " Indicating that he wants to be best version of himself , whether that leads him to being a superstar or not , is not important.
yeah dude, that's how this life work, and sometimes I must admit it sucks, when you deserve something good, but in fact you didn't get anything, but someone who is worse than you get everything, so sometimes, just sometimes, life really sucks...
📝 i think it should say, ''the media HAS never heard of me," instead of "the media HAVE never heard me." .. IDK Nike may have dropped the ball, on this one.. 🏀.. but good everything else.. good ad and dream
I don't think you understood the point of this video. It is not to promote yourself, hoping a wealthy sponsor is gonna get you into NBA/FIFA etc. It is to prove that there is something that's worth a lot more than a shiny cup and money. To prove that there is something way harder to obtain than that cup. That battle, even if it's the hardest battle one can lead, it is the most rewarding. Beating yourself, pushing your limits beyond what you have ever dreamed of....THAT is the ultimate reward.
it's not about life it's never is it's about what you do in your life like it's not about the end of the road it's about what you did when walking that road and that road is rough for the people how see it that way it's an easy road just put some effort i know some is overrated but trust me just some effort and that will lead the whole way i am still at the start of my road i am 14 years old kid from egypt but trust me if i am nothing when i grow up then anybody can piss of at my grave.

This is a fan film, it wasn't paid for by Nike. I don't even know if they actually saw it!

There's a lot of bad spec ads on youtube...this is not one of them. Amazing work
this commerical makes me cry!!i love it!!
This video only touches on the first part. You need to conquer yourself first (like this video is saying), then you go and test your best against others best.
*POWERFUL !*

use firefox and look for youtube downloader app in the firefox app centre...
Beautifull motivation. Give it your all!
Un beau message, une belle réalisation : We all just wanna be us !
it's amazing...
" I don't wanna be a superstar
I wanna be better than that. "
Indicating that he wants to be best version of himself , whether that leads him to being a superstar or not , is not important.
The bank shot is just a way to say "I'm going to be me"!
yeah dude, that's how this life work, and sometimes I must admit it sucks, when you deserve something good, but in fact you didn't get anything, but someone who is worse than you get everything, so sometimes, just sometimes, life really sucks...

I wonder where this was filmed
I dont wanna be a star but wanna play with stars
📝 i think it should say, ''the media HAS never heard of me," instead of "the media HAVE never heard me." .. IDK Nike may have dropped the ball, on this one.. 🏀.. but good everything else.. good ad and dream
@MisterVeezy Le terrain était à Bir-Hakeim, mais il a été détruit quelques semaines après le tournage.

No shame to belong to ordinary people's class.
We do extraordinary things too.
Like this ad...
