The fact that, instead of raising the award in the air, they pulled Damar into their arms to comfort him through his tears speaks volumes for the humans on that stage. ❤
The way they surrounded him and embraced him made me shed tears. The way they were comforting him and holding him up in that moment was very emotional and so moving. A very beautiful display of empathy and humanity.
Man… Got me In tears. You can see how much Damar truly values these professionals for saving his life and doesn’t take it for granted. Very moving.

Is he gonna be able to play again

@@ab-lk9oi what’s it like being a troll?
@@DookieBoiWilliamsu obviously don’t watch because he’s a solid corner u just wanna be an edgelord
I want to just flat out say that the training staff did not just “do their job” the day Damar Hamlin passed- they saved the life of a man in front of over 60,000 people in Cincinnati and over 3,000,000 watching on television. They had to work under all that pressure and still saved Damar’s life- it has been so beautiful seeing Damar begin to become so outright thankful for everything, and he can play 1 game next year and he’ll still win Comeback Player of the Year, because no matter how bad you were previously, overcoming death is the greatest achievement
What a great and true statement ✊
All orchestrated don't be fooled.
@@tlaclacan7722what?

@@tlaclacan7722o outside. Go touch grass . Go be with people instead of sitting on the internet all day.
As a Bengals fan, I am so proud of our city and everyone on both teams who held his life in their hands. Such a touching video.
And you should be, the people of your city, just two words, class act. My fellow fans in Buffalo appreciate you all, thank you.
@@stevenberry3294 We are just so glad he survived! Inspirational man for sure.
Bengals fans are honestly some of the classiest fans in the league. I remember the Thursday night when Tua went down and as he was carted out, the fans were chanting his name.
Then the bengals mocked it the next game
I can't stand the Bengals and I was rooting against them hard that night. That said, I do live here in Cincinnati and am a patient at UC and I am so proud of the doctors there and the first responders that night. When that happened I put my hate aside and just wanted him to live.
Thank you to the Bills Medical Staff. What a heart felt moment
NO MAN YOU CANT SAY THAT
@@horky1 yes he can
It’s also University of Cincinnati Medical too.. just sayin
@@melanietatco30 i think you missed the point... this was awarded to them bc they resuscitated him ON the field. if they hadn't done that, his experience at the U. of Cin. would've been extremely different...
@@AndrewH1220 heart. Felt. Moment. Quite ironic statement?
The Bills medical staff must've felt more anxiety than all of us, as they knew it was their responsibility from then on to save Damar's life in front of millions of people watching. They knew how to act, they put their training to the test, and proved how skilled they are and that their job matters a lot.
We can never have enough people educated in academics and sciences. It's both game changing and life changing knowledge to have.
the first one to him knew right away that it was bad. I don't recall then man's name but he immediately said he didn't like the way Hamlin went down and called on his radio for all support. That obsevation in a split second is amazing then for all to perform so valiantly when they knew ... inspiring

Has to be one of the most deserving and impactful sports awards ever presented. There isn't a better embodiment of our hero Pat Tillman. Can't imagine how much love Damar feels. What an amazing group of physicians.
They are Athletic Trainers not physicians only 1 person is the team physician all the rest are Athletic Trainers and super grateful to see us finally appreciated for the life saving work we do in sports every day
Tillman was killed for exposing special ops as drug runners in Afghanistan
Lmao dude doesn’t even know what Tillman stood for and believed him. Fighting an illegal war and spoke out against it. Our hero lol, dude should have never been there and was killed by his own men
@@bubbag8895 And given a silver star to cover it up. That said, it doesn't make him less heroic.
how is he a hero? Please... explain...
Man I teared up watching this, well deserved I’m glad he’s still here
Looked scripted
@@Test7017 shut up 🤡
@@Test7017LMFAO it’s not reality tv? Of course it’s scripted they write speeches? He’s not a celebrity this man’s job is athletic training. Bffr
Teared up? Cmon man. You wasn't crying when you seen him turning it up beside Roger Goodell at the super bowl.
I didn't. That was an awful speech. For fucks sakes dude talked about AED. Make it emotional mf. I would have been up there sobbing thanking my mom and calling her the real MVP and how I came from the projects. Never thought I'd make it here I'd say. 😅
I believe Travis Kelsey was the first person to stand up in the audience to lead the ovation for Demar and the men and woman who helped to revive Damar!❤
Wow
But in the clip before you see a guy in black start standing so no
He definitely was up right away that's for sure
As a Bills fan, I cried.
As a human being, I wept.
Boohoo
👏🏿👏🏿🖤🖤
This...yes this.
🌽 🌽
I did too
This young man is as genuine and sincere as it gets,truly inspiring.
I have been an athletic trainer for 22 years. I was in tears seeing this. He's right they were just doing their job. We practice these scenarios everyday. We hope we never have to use CPR or an AED but it absolutely saves lives. Seeing Damar's genuine emotion and gratitude is beautiful. I'm soooo proud of these athletic trainers and our profession.
Thank y’all for being the heroes of these teams. Without the you guys there won’t be great athletes that we that we see today. As a person that had to be revived using CPR it’s definitely a important proseguir to train on.
@@kingted5364 I'm happy you are still here with us
Psyopss
@kingted5364 glad you're still here bro. Cheers.
I wasn't honestly. No disrespect but the speech was awful. He couldn't write some Hollywood script or pay a guy to write something more dramatic. I could hardly finish the video.
Real life hearos but also a huge thank you to the hospital, the staff, and doctors who were there in Cincinnati who were also part of saving Damar's life
100% the way Cincinnati Dr's and medical staff went above and beyond is truly inspiring. They get love, no doubt, but man, I wish they would've been up there as well. I get why they aren't, but I'm happy they got a shout-out at least
Alot of people played a huge role. It all began right here. I was certain he died that night
Right . Unlike Pat Tillman.. they need to chill with that

@@Ween1776 hospital facilities & staff in cincinnati hospital are the best.......i too survived a heart attack in cincinnati
Nah they foreal saved a life that night!! Saw it live as it happened and it still feels like a dream , unbelievable he’s alive and well!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Was he dead on the field that night ?
@@Aomsw Yes. 9 minutes of CPR on the field before he was transported with a faint pulse. They lost his pulse a second time on route to the hospital but again, CPR and everyone who worked that night to save him.
Miracles happening in real life is wild. But Damar is certainly an example of that.
@@Maggie2323 woe he is definitely a walking miracle
@@Aomsw CPR is to mimic a pulse and keep oxygen flowing through the body, and is only used when the person has no pulse (clinically dead), and an AED is used to shock the heart to in hopes start the pulse up again. So yes, he was and they brought him back to life in front of the entire nation
There's always that ESPYs moment that rightfully, we all come back to for years on end. Stuart Scott's speech, Craig Sager....too many to name at the moment.
Damar and the Bills training staff joined that club tonight. What a powerful message and moment.
This will be up there with Jimmy V's speech.
Yeah the Stuart Scott speech hit me the hardest
So True !!
@@kwicksand12 I know I cried when he passed away 😢.
@@kwicksand12 ESPN hasn't been the same without him I remember watching stump the schwab and other programs featuring him.
If you’re not moved by this, I don’t know what to tell you. Thank the Bills training staff for acting and responding so quickly to save Hamlin’s life!
IKR.
trying to start an argument
Well it's not him sooo
@@earthquakkejake9894 what’s that mean? Just curious
@@luiswiley372their's technology when they cab have a double or a clone
It’s so great to see medical staff be awarded
Seeing him collapse on live TV was literally the most horrifying incident I've ever seen.
I'm glad that he recovered and god bless Bills training staff (and other medical staff who were involved)!!!
Some heroes don't wear capes and they are definitely real heroes the world need right now!!!
"Get up! Get up! You're going to cost us a timeout!" - Skip Bayless if he were coaching the Bills on that play
@@Zenigundamlmfao for sure 😂
You must live in a bubble if someone falling over is the most horrifying. You never seen car accidents,body parts flying,anything like that???
@@johnnycapote9817 bruh your comment is redundant.
Wow. You're a very lucky person if that's the most horrifying thing you've ever seen.
The Buffalo Bills training staff deserves more than they can ever imagine. They didn’t just help Damar with what they thought was an injury, rather a cardiac arrest, for which they saved his life. All love for Damar ❤
I, and most medics i know can’t look at Damar at not immediately start sobbing. That man is a miracle. That’s a miracle. And when you get a save like that, it helps you continue being a medic/doctor for all the ones you can’t. Just incredible. Miracle.
was in the stands that night, ill never forget it. every time i see this man, alive, upright and now in that Bills uniform again, fills me with such joy. im so proud of my team, my town and my place of work for the care and love they showed this young man. Bills Mafia and Who Dey Nation, brothers and sisters for life! WHO DEY!
Cincy went above and beyond in every aspect. I would hope my Bills would do the same. Cheers bro
@@Ween1776 I have no doubt. Buffalo is an amazing town filled with caring people
@@Ween1776I’m ok with the Bills, but I’m a die hard Panthers fan simply because I’m from NC and that’s probably the most negative thing I could ever say about Bills Mafia lol
Incredibly amazing city and fans! I’ve never been but you can just tell how awesome y’all are! 🖤🧡
This is what being a human is about!!! No color, no politics, and just love!!!
Agreed!!!
Greatly put
exactly
Yet here you are mentioning it
Facts ❤
If anyone recalls the Bills training staff led the way in sideline treatment for players with severe spinal injuries. In 2007 when TE Kevin Everett was paralyzed during a game they saved his life. The Bills at the time were the only training staff in the NFL to be prepared with a sideline training staff to deal with such an injury. Everett was eventually able to walk again.
Incredible. Real heroes
I’m not surprised when your head trainer is best friends with the G.O.A.T. Of Athletic Trainers you’re definitely prepared & I’m not surprised🫶🏽The Bills have one of the best Athletic training staff in the world but when you train with the best you naturally should become the best 💯⚕️
This is beautiful. I hope Damars story will inspire lots of people to sign up for CPR certification and basic life saving skills classes! People can save lives! God bless the bill's trainers here and the university of Cincinnati hospital team 💕 from a bengals fan in Cincinnati, we love you all!!
After this happened my job brought in a team from our local hospital to train the entire staff on AED & CPR..For a whole week the entire building was full of excitement to learn this life saving technique you would have thought we all got a bonus.
This comment means alot to me. I lost a cousin in June to a cardiorespiratory issue. This reminds me to go and get that training..
Life is so precious, yet so fragile. Thank you to the medical team for saving his life.
go get your local pfizer shot :)

I teared up. I’m grateful Damar is still here.
I'm crying happy tears, this young man is a walking miracle. Thanks and blessings to all who were involved.
God has his hand on us all and all we gotta do is believe
Never forget watching this game was unbelievable, Never seen anything like it in my 38 years on earth, Props to Bills staff for keeping this young man alive!! And the city of Cincinnati and the Bengals! It was a true team effort
Gratitude for all you folks did for Damar🎉😎❤️🏈
I recently got cpr and aed certified 🙏 it is serious and can help save a life, what a great job by that medical staff and all the ones saving lives out there on the daily 🙏❤️
Outstanding!!!!!
After watching what happened that night I went and got certified myself I just don't want to stand by anymore and wait for paramedics if I can help save a precious life I'm all in.
One of the best things that will come from this incident is more people getting CPR certified. 👏
Damar, you deserved that standing ovation and so much more. You have no idea how many people were praying for you to recover. Even if we were not there physically with your family, friends and teammates, we were there spiritually.
That was SO WELL DONE! Written, delivered, humble. The message and inclusion was really something.
This made me tear up, may he have a prosperous and healthy career and top it off with a chip. Amazing moment!
True heroes. Everyone who played a role
Just an amazing story! Almost unbelievable if I didn’t witness it myself. This man coded twice and 7 months later not only is he alive, but he’s participating in OTAs and Mini Camp heading into Training Camp. A true modern day miracle, thanks to everyone involved in helping this young man to continue living his best life.
This is bigger than sports will ever be, as a human you can’t help but smile at this. I’m glad to know Damar is still with us AND able to play football again as a huge bonus. Thank you to those doctors and trainers.
What a moving moment.....God bless all of them.
Go Damar!!! I’m glad the bills staff is getting the love they rightfully deserve! Let’s also not forget to give the Cincy staff and the Cincy hospital and the people of Cincy love too. ♥️
Did you listen to the speech? They acknowledged a lot of people including the hospital
@@amandavee0x yeah I 100% listened to the entire speech. It made me cry. I was just looking through the comments and didn’t see enough love for what I said. I appreciate everyone who was there that made a difference. I just wanted to shine the light on those others who made a difference
Whew! When he fell into the arms of the guy to the left, tears just fell from my eyes. To God be the glory for the great things he has done. May God continue to richly bless each and every person that provided medical treatment to Damar. And May God continue to bless Damar in all of this future endeavors.
I love Pat Tillman and what he gave up to serve. I am a Marine Corps combat veteran 02-09. Pat inspired many of us. These folks are deserving of this award carrying Pat’s legacy. These service oriented people make me proud of our Country and the individuals that make it. In a time where our Country and world are struggling, Demar and the team of medical personal gave us all a moment to come together and pray together as one Nation under God. Watching Demar on stage with all of them putting a hand on him is an inspiring image for humanity. If we all worked to serve each other as they do everyday, our Country will be stronger, better, with a brighter future. Congratulations and thank you for serving humanity and equally thank you for all first responders and healthcare professional who work around the clock. This group represented an entire cohort of service minded people on national t.v. And is what is even more amazing is that there are millions just like them, doing similar life saving actions daily and go home with little recognition.
This seriously brought tears to my eyes !!!!! Humanity is not lost we need to appreciate the beautiful souls on this earth
Teared up watching this. Strong message and leaders
This is why I’m so excited to be a nurse. We save people’s lives and get to see them live theirs after a set back.
Exactly. It warms my heart and makes me happy that I can positively impact someone’s life one day.
Loved this…As a member of the military that served in Afghan and Iraq, so happy this team earned the award. Shows what’s it’s truly about. There is no color. He’s a human being. Damar, so happy you are still with us. Training staff, so happy you were there. Could not be prouder.
Thank you for your service♥️🇺🇸
I cried ❤. Thank you medical team. Go Damar Hamlin 3❤
What a great moment
In tears watching this. God Bless Damar and God Bless the entire Bills training staff.
THANK YOU FATHER GOD FOR YOUR MIRACLE FOR THE HEALING OF
DAMAR HAMLIN
Glad you are still with us! The entire NFL followers Damir sent prayers your way!
Saved his life 🙏🏾
How do you not cry with this boy.
What a blessing for everyone.
So heart-touching! NFL brothers & family have always came together in time of need, for 1 player to multiple players, that’s what makes this amazing Sport in the USA so astonishing! Love🏈Live🏈Footbal
Glad to see him recovered and ready to play football. This man defied the odds. Commotio cordis has a 97% fatality rate if not treated within 3 minutes.
We should all stride to live for moments like this… where you can truly feel the love for total strangers.
I couldn't be more proud of this organization with all we went thru last season. God bless this medical staff and of course... GO BILLS!!!!!
What an amazing speech from him
Great speech, great job young man.
I remember where I was when he collapsed it was beautiful watching everyone drop what they are doing and gather around a TV and pray and hope to god this man was okay
Wow, what a moment! I definitely cried as soon as I saw Damar tear up. Then cried more when everyone gave him a standing ovation (which they stayed standing that whole time, which is paying some AWESOME respect). Then I was a bawling when the whole staff huddled around Damar to comfort/support him. Amazing!
I’m thankful for all the prayers lifted up for this talented player … it’s so wonderful he is still here enjoying life so much … I’m one who always remembered him in prayer
i was watching this live with my friends, it was absolutely terrifying. glad he’s okay, huge props to the bills training/medical staff
Thank you for your service.
Man that made me tear up. The love and appreciation that Damar has for these heroes is incredible. The way he understands what these men and women meant to him on that horrible day is what gets me emotional. Well deserved is their praise and gratitude, not to mention that award went to the perfect candidates!
Big thank you to the Bills, and Bengals medical staffs for saving Demar. From a Bengals fan that was such a hard thing to witness happen. Both teams were amazing that night and by doing so saved a young mans life.
Also, thank you to The University of Cincinnati Medical for all they did to help save Demar.
The way I just cried this cry when he fell into their armssss!!!! Seeing him collapse LIVE on the TV while watching the game is something I will never forget… watching everything happen that night after, football froze and so did the world! This is so beautiful to watch because that night is etched in so many minds thank God he is alive to tell his story!
Amazing these people deserve every bit of it just amazing !
UNITY! WE ARE ALL SO MUCH MORE ALIKE THAN WE ARE DIFFERENT! LOVE IS STRESS FREE! BE KIND!
True professionalism and humanity at its finest. What a special acknowledgment ❤ sending my love and gratitude to all of these beautiful humans ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
They truly saved a life that night! My son plays football and I pray if something were to ever happen to him the team around him are able to save his life!! #3
Praise God Praise God Praise God!!! He Kept this young man!!!
Really beautiful speech. So happy for the athletic staff to be recognized that way and for Hamlin to be there, alive & healthy, to witness this & be able to continue his dream career.
Very moving. Well articulated. Well deserved with a “to-do” list message for caring about our youth in sports. We have lost too many youths in sports that didn’t have the same level of medical staff available. His words were not empty.
Thanks to the women and men!!! You guys are hero's.
Why is this making me cry and I don’t even know him like that, but this award as well deserved especially if you’re a football fan you know we could have almost could’ve lost that young man.

Beautiful moment. Love is real
i remember me and my class all praying together for damar while he was in the hospital. so thankful for the medical staff who helped him and am so so so thankful he is ok.❤
As a bills fan I was ecstatic🙏🏽! Forget about a espy, Oscar, Grammy or Emmy. The biggest honor in the world is saving someone’s life!
Loved this! And I am glad people stood up for him. There could have been the chance he wouldn't have been standing there with them all tonight.
I still tear up the bills have a great medical staff. What a heart felt moment.
Its hard not to cry! God bless all of them. ❤💯
So heartfelt 😢❤🙏🏽🙏🏽 Amazing job!! Remarkable service. You all went above and beyond the call of duty! ❤

This clip shows the very best of humanity. Thank you for being a bright light in this world!!
Thats awesome....and well deserved. From an SF 49er fan, big ups to Buffalo and Cincy for their efforts and for the way they handled everything. 👏
Amazing moment
Love for damar❤
Nate is from my home town Webster, SD. A great guy, very proud of him and his actions in saving this young mans life. Fantastic speech!!
When you know its gonna be sad and click it anyways, Respect to everyone who reacted and saved damars life, and way to acknowledge the other teams staff that came to help also, true professionals
This is beautiful. I work in the medical field and cardiac has always been my passion. This medical staff did a fantastic job.
Pat Tillman was killed by friendly fire and his mother had to fight for years to find out her sons cause of death. He was also a harsh critic of the Iraq war.
So happy that Damar is well, so thankful for the incredible work done by amazing people that brought him back to life.
I know incredibly sad story, pat was a really good football player and all around great guy. I didn’t know him personally, but was a child when he died from friendly fire and it was a really sad story.
He was born in San Jose, California. Went to Leland high school and then scholarship from ASU. This story hit home.
Also drafted to the Arizona Cardinals, he was such a great player and better human being. He cares for others more than himself and was heart breaking to see him go.
I was in tears, so happy he's doing better. ❤ You feel the love and the family relationship between them.
Well deserved moment won a lots of hearts
Tears 😢 running down my face.
Thank you to the training staff of the Buffalo Bills. All of you deserve the award for saving Damar Hamlin’s life.
This made me cry. It’s great to see all come together
enough to make a grown man cry
"Thank you for staying alive brother"
❤WOW! From an American Indian woman who fighting a stroke recovery !! All specialist that God has given a gift … We pray for everyone , the family , and technology …. God is Great!! Love you All
What an awesome staff of professionals. Every team should be so lucky.
Did you notice how he thanked the owners but not the nfl, because those assholes wanted them to continue the game. The team owners and coaches said no way! Good for them!
