A TEENAGER WITHOUT ARMS SHOWS US WHAT COURAGE IS: HE DOES NOT GIVE UP UNTIL A 50 CM BOX JUMPS

There are achievements of our children and young people that excite us and show us that they are capable of achieving any goal, even with the support of adults.

Y the viral video of Tim, a 14-year-old teenager without arms, trying again and again to jump a 50 cm box until he succeeds, is one of them.

The images were recorded in one of the camps of the Nubability Foundation, in Illinois (United States). This organization works, through sports, with young people who lack some limb.

An exciting example of bravery

Tim looks at his monitor. He is sweating. In front of him, a crossfit exercise: you must jump a wooden box 50 centimeters high. She yells at him "Jump, now!". He obeys and tries, but without success. It doesn't even touch the box. And also in a second test.

But the monitor encourages him to do it again and again. On his third attempt, Tim performs the test with more force, even shouting and manages to set foot on the box. But he falls backwards and makes a small hint of abandonment. But then he takes the opposite attitude: he is determined to follow.

He manages to jump on a box in the fourth attempt and screams with emotion. Hugs and joy around him because he has succeeded. Tim breaks into tears and hugs the woman who has managed to trust her possibilities.

That's what these images shared on Twitter by one of the coaches of this Chicago boy tell.

My favorite moment from Nubability Camp. Tim overcoming his fears and self-doubt and landing a 20 ”box jump. If you have not heard of Nubability Athletics and its founder, Sam Kuhnert, check them out. # NubCamp2019 # DontNeed2 #GameOn

In Babies and more, he was born without hands, but his effort and improvement have won him a national calligraphy prize

Because as the organization explains on its website, its mission is "Encourage, inspire, instruct different young people (congenital amputee or trauma) by removing them from the stands, the bench and bringing them closer to conventional sports."

We stay with the spirits of his monitor after achieving his feat and tears of emotion from Tim, a teenager who makes us dream of a better future. The woman hugs the boy and says looking at the box:
