I am here not offend him, but to respond back.

Well, I believe that everyone has their own steps to become successful, but I don't necessary believe lifting 500 pound weights or serving 140 mph tennis serves is the way to success. (note some of those numbers might not be real so don't take the vid too seriously)

This video was not supposed to be leaked, but apparently some person did.

I don't agree with him and I think that some of those numbers are fake (especially the 140 tennis serve [world record was about 149mph {correct me if I am wrong}]), but that doesn't mean people can make fun of him like that.

Tell me, what are your ideas on him? Where you motivated?


P.S. Thanks for all who helped me in the Programming Help thread. I decided to learn C and I am using Dev C++ for my IDE. Thank you!

I feel sorry for him but then again he seemed like a total [I AM TEKNOMAN! LET THE WORLDS UNITE! WEEEEEE BROOM BROOM] and needed to be brought back down to earth.

He makes me think of someone that got picked on and then was like "I shall become the greatest ________ ever, just to spite them!"

You can totally tell his 'spotters' are doing the work.

I think it's awesome that the shrimp got 2000+ comments and this has 200

A fast tennis serve is probably pretty achievable, but I think the world record has to be done in a genuine environment (i.e an actual match) otherwise you just keep hitting as hard as you possibly can until one of them gets on target.

His methodology seems pretty sound but he does seem like a bit of a loser.

Whoa, pretty funny to be seeing about this here... This guy goes to my school, and he was big news around here a day or two before the media found out about him. On the one hand, not even he could overexaggerate how ridiculous/hillarious he is, but on the other, I can't really help feeling a little bad for him.

The whole physical thing is pretty true though. I always do better in all things once I get working out regularly.
