About Roll With Cole & Charisma:
Hey everyone! We’re Cole & Charisma. Since the start of our relationship we've gotten a lot of questions about how we make things work as not only an interracial couple, but an interabled one as well. There are certainly differences, and despite them we have a great time, all the time! On this channel, you’ll find travel vlogs, Q&As, couple challenges, how-to/educational videos and more. We started this channel to bring people into our lives so we can answer some questions about how we navigate the world. We’ll show you behind-the-scenes stuff people typically don't see, and hopefully raise awareness surrounding accessibility and dating in a wheelchair. You'll quickly see in our episodes that we're all about positivity, inclusion, and keeping a great attitude no matter your circumstances, so if that's what you're into, you're in the right place!
I love how Charisma didn’t jump right in to help Cole get in the lift properly. She helped him when he truly needed it when he got stuck but she gave him the space to do it himself. Love how you show how Cole is able ❤️❤️.

I was thinking the same thing!
Yup! That's encouraging and promoting independence. Very important for people with disabilities. 😊
I was thinking the same think👏🏾❤️❤️
I'm disabled n people just don't understand how much we need to do things for ourselves n they just gotta be patient nobody hates it more than us
I agree with you . Charisma u rock! You know Cole can do it, and that's what's it's all about. So proud of you 2
As a person with a disability who is struggling to adapt to driving, I needed to see this. Thanks!
You've got this ! Hoping you are feeling more confident and comfortable behind the wheel now.
Lol, I cannot picture Cole driving a mini van. He is too cool for that type of ride.
kenya Mack can you picture how cool he’d look when he was able to utilize his modifications with ease?
A slammed Chevy express is pretty pimp.
kenya Mack: weren't we all?
Wow, Yeah a minivan how uncool! Imagine only being able to drive a mini van if you were in his shoes! The rich parents help make that happen.
Most people in his shows aren’t as lucky to be able to have this bought for them.
How about a suped up sprinter, with a lift in the driver side,but also a lift for the back passenger interior. Have classy interior and interchangeable front seating so you can take turns driving or enjoying the amenities as a passenger Cole.😆😍
That is a real completely adapted car!!
Truck* -.-
@@originalg6918 ok.
Eduardo Padilla playing with you man haha. Truck is really cool though, the fact that they made it so he can still drive, that is awesome.
I understand what you mean, but the fella can’t even get onto the lift. I understand he’d rather not drive a van, but it would be a substantial improvement to his life.
@@rackemwells I disagree with your comment. I too use a wheelchair, and some days we're on, and other days it seems nothing works out. The struggle is good. Without it, our muscles waste away. I do agree that a van would be more practical if kids are on the way.
“How’d you get upon the curb”
“Cuz I’m in a truck”
PERIOD 😂😂 I swear I hit curbs at least 3 times a week 💀
You guys are so adorable. I love how real it was when Cole was frustrated and not getting things to work quickly. You could have edited it out, but it was real. Charisma, love how you let him do things without jumping in to help. That is so tough for me, but I can see how empowering it can be to let him be. God bless you two.
Love you both so much.you put a smile on my face every time I watch your videos.😘
At least you stayed with it and didn't get overly frustrated, great lesson for us as well. It happens to us all, demonstrating what may be everyday things can comes with a few hiccups. Stay Positive. Love you guys.
I have to say, "I love the 8 attempts". I'm a quad and my wife and 2 daughters let me struggle until I ask for help. I also do wood working as a hobby. In my shop, patience is definitely a virtue. I struggle with clamps, screw guns, and especially putting screws in wood. Sometimes I just have to laugh at how long it takes me to build something. Keep struggling, keep posting, and keep being positive. Attitude is everything and the two of you seem to have great attitudes. FYI - you speak of having kids. My wife and I went through IVF and were blessed with two daughters. Don't give up.
Cole, the fact you needed 8 attempts to get on that ramp just makes it real. Some days we're on, and get it right away, and other days it's just not happening. Like it how Charisma helped you when you got stuck, but she didn't just jump in and move you. Whenever you get your van (and triplets?! lol), I'd totally buy that truck off you! I have muscular dystrophy, but your hand controls are the same as mine were. I bought my first van from a C5/6 quad.
A give a huge hi-five to Clem Daddy and Mama Kelly for actually "allowing" Cole to be as independent as he can-or should. Cole is a man; and in order for Mr. Cole to mature as a man, he must be independent and do certain things on his own. I'm sure it couldn't have been easy for his parents to lessen the reins, but it was necessary. I send positive vibes and earnest encouragement for you both to keep growing and maturing.
Why i couldn't have said, "what a dope-ass truck." And leave it at that. Lordt. 😩🙄
I had hand controls fail on me once. They were hooked up through the engine and got stuck on acceleration. I have never been so scared and yes I wrecked. Today I drive with hand controls very similar to Cole's. I feel much safer. Love your truck Cole!
I have regular controls and my acceleration petal got stuck. Something i will never forget. No accident, just scared the Jesus out of me.😁
Oh hell no. The most I’ve had happen to my hand controls (which are similar to Cole’s) is the pole connected to the accelerator fell off while I was driving.
There he goes with the triplets.😊😊
Maria Elliott won’t they be surprised if that really happens! What a story they would have to tell. 😁
Lora Schrock and we would all be rejoicing for them. They make me smile when I’m feeling grumpy.
He wants his triplets. He's speaking as he sees it. Triplets he will have. Lol
This has become the thing me and my grandma (Biddy) look forward to the most. She’s gotten forgetful but she asks everyday about y’all and when we can watch. Thank you for giving Biddy something to look forward to again!
riku125 it’s nice to watch something with your grandma that’s wholesome and leaves you with a smile on your face. 😀
Studies have found that cholesterol medication causes forgetfulness (dementia) I'm fairly young and I was on cholesterol medication I would forget I was cooking and go out and do yard work, forget to feed my dog. I quit taking it and quit forgetting.
That is so Great! I was very close with my Grandma before she passed! Tell Grandma Biddy Hello from Texas!😊❤️
I just wanted to say I found y’alls channel like 3 days ago and have watched every single one! I’m obsessed! Bless y’all!
VintageSirens been watching them since June! You’ll love them !!! ❤️❤️
VintageSirens same
Me too I so love them
The most surprising part of this video is that the McDonald's ice cream machine is working
😂😂
I was about to say the same thing...lol
I work in disability services here in Canada and this just makes me so happy and hopeful. You guys are the best find on UA-cam! Take ❤
That little screw thing on windshield wipers is a good idea. I might have to put one on mine too because it's definitely a challenge turning the wipers on in the rain and still trying to steer with one hand. Even my girlfriend thinks it's a little hard for her being able-bodied. I also just thought about getting automatic wipers installed that turn on when it senses rain.
Cole's are automatic and sense the rain but the screw allows him to adjust the speed up or down to his liking if the automation isn't at a speed he needs for the rain conditions.
Thank you Ms. Kelly for explaining that.
I really enjoy your videos and love for each other! It's such a blessing that people devote their careers to adapting items to help the disability.
57k!!!!🎈 Secretly waiting for the video where Cole pops the question & they announce they're expecting. But no rush. Lol😁 love you guys❤
Where do you wanna go charisma? I’ll take you anywhere!!😍😍😍
Yeah😍😍😍
I caught that too! I love how much they love each other. ❤😍😁
Wow! That was cool! Another way for Cole to be independent.
My brother broke his neck when he was 16 in a car a accident. He is now 40 I wish they had this type of technology then! This is awesome!
This is so amazing I had no idea this kind of thing existed! When I first heard Cole's story I thought it was heartbreaking that he got his injury the day after his licence because he was so excited to drive and I didn't think he would be able to.
showing this too my mother cause I as well am in a wheelchair and i’ve told my mom about wanting to start or learn to drive and this video has just inspired me more that I can do it.
He said for the Triplets( that's right cole) lol 😛😝😛😜
Will Charisma hire someone to help with 3 babies? One baby can be a tremendous undertaking. I hope new parents value their sleep and ability to engage in other normal adult activities because when babies come, you become their 24/7 caregiver and bottle washer, etc. until they are old enough to fend for themselves.
One sister only has two children (separate births) and her life is not a fairy tale now. Her husband also works. BUT she takes care (by herself) of the household chores AND their children alone. She has gained over 40 pounds but he remains slender, he has time to go to the gym. She's too exhausted and stressed out. Probably beautiful babies but...
Ikr❤️❤️❤️😭😭
Thank you both for sharing your lives with us. Cole, I think you had all those attempts because you were showing how it's done but normally it's so automatic for you that you do it without thinking. 💖
I have a few questions
1. Have you ever had a spasm while driving?
2. How are your reflexes when having to stop suddenly?
3. Is parallel parking a task?
Shaunlunda Harrison I wondering too
I can answer one of your questions. Cole mentioned in another video that he does have spasms sometimes while driving.
Roll with Cole & Charisma thanks for responding. I was curious. I can’t even parallel park so big ups for you! Enjoy you guys
When driving, Cole's spasms happen most often when in the midst of a turn from a start up at a stop light, or a bump in the road. Something shifty or jarring causes it. The spasms are in his legs and he doesn't use his legs to drive, so that is a plus!!!
He just takes his time with the acceleration and we have discussed that he doesn't need to feel rushed. People behind him can just be patient!
@@KellySydnorRollwithCole mum to the rescue, you have raised a good man mam, thanks for being a super mum, Cole is actually blest to have two sweet women in his life you and Charisma... Cheers Sydnor Family.
Omg you guys are awesome! I am a C5-C7 from a car accident in 1999 and my husband and I have been together since high school...we are going on 18 years this July! I don’t think people realize how ridiculously ordinary interabled relationships really are. I have a similar truck and I ALWAYYYYSSSSS get stuck getting on the lift. I swear if the ground is even just slightly inclined, it throws off the whole thing and I get stuck. I end up having to tell 76 strangers how I can “do it on my own but thaaaaanks.” while simultaneously dropping my 34 Target bags that I can also “get by myself” and swearing under my breath. 😂
You guys are a couple made in heaven. Sincere love and care for each other. You are my favorite couple.
Hi Guys,
You guys are the best!!! Full of vibes. You are so great in teaching how and why of dealing with issues surrounding being a roller. I love how active you guys are. Keep spreading inspiration and hope to all of us. Love you guys. Blessings.
I’ve watched almost every episode and I love you guys more today than yesterday!! You two smile in every episode and I love it!!!! 🥰🥰 I have no clue how I found you two but I’m so happy I did!!!
I love how cole always mentions triplets and charisma just like ya ok
I love you guys, you are so inspirational.
Cole, that was great, do very well, even when people are looking at you. Hi Miss.Carisma.yall take care of yourself and each other God bless ya'll xoxo len
I love your guys energy and positive attitude, keep up the amazing job and may God continue to Bless you with a Loving family.
I wish you all the best. It is amazing how you don't let that stop you from enjoying the things we take for granted, like driving.
I can see why Charisma fell in love with Cole. They way to a man's heart is through his stomach but the way to a woman's heart is through laughter and he cracks me up every video. I can only imagine the fun they have when the carma is off
It makes me so happy that Cole can drive!!
Thank you, Cole and Charisma! I have never seen a driver side lift before! Way Cool!
This was so amazing i was so curious how you drove cole. Proud of you 😀 you push passed your limits to do above and beyond. Y'all are such a cute loving couple. God Bless you guys abundantly
Cole I applaud your tenacious spirit and your positive attitude. Instead of wallowing in why me and bitterness You've taken control of your life and become an inspiration to countless. You have loving and supportive parents, and last but not least you have a precious gem and partner in Charisma!
Cole your so damn funny! From the blanket to pimp your ride! Every video I watched you are the sunshine and always make me laugh! Your one lucky girl.
You and your family is such an inspiration Cole. Miss Charisma you’re one special young lady. Keep sharing and educating us.
Cole you crack me up, take your time we are patient we can wait I still love you guy's stay positive
I love your glasses charisma, love your truck cole!!!!
Your confidence is awesome Cole. Keep moving and keeping pushing through guys❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
It's so funny how I kno Cole is obviously in a wheelchair and doesn't use his legs buuuut... I am just now realizing he's not using his legs when driving lmao. I never thought anything of it til this video My mind trips me out sometimes 😂🤦♀️
I love how you guys face and conquer challenges. It really takes love and patience and you show it all so authentic. Can't wait for the wedding and triplets, and yes I like your glasses to Charisma and Cole drives so professional. God bless the both of you.
Charisma you are amazing. The natural inclination is to jump in to help But you stayed so calm and just allowed Cole to try to do it himself. You were always ready to help when he really needed you but you never made him feel like a child that needed rescuing. Kudos to you and to whoever designed that truck 🛻 what a life changer in the independence of disabled people.
Amazing how they can make that so accessible.you two are great thanks again for sharing you lives with us.can not wait for the next episode.
I love how kind and understanding they both are.
I live in Alaska and I sometimes get a little a lazy to gear up to just walk outside during the winter to grab mail. Props to you for sticking through it even when you got frustrated.
This was a very informative video, and I am sure it will help many people in similar situations. You guys are the best.
I have been so excited about the education you both are providing this week!! Charisma you said 100,000 by end of year, you guys will have 1M by year end my prayer! Hope we see your day to day Charisma with school etc.
Another great video! Very informative because I was high key curious about the driving aspect.
This guy isn’t letting anything stop him! What an adorable couple. They have the same great smile! That’s what’s important. It shows what’s in the heart.
Just found your channel yesterday and I had to subscribe!! You two are so genuine and have such beautiful souls. I pray God fills your lives with unlimited amounts of blessings.
I do like this video because you are showing something that I have been wondering about driving.
Awesome, I knw it took a minute to adapt but his willingness to do what he can by himself, no one should have a reason to not do certain things. He is a positive mood and a strength mood and an overcomer. 🙏🏾💙 many blessings
You are absolutely amazing Cole, the amount of strength you show is out of this world! Thank you to both of you for allowing us into your amazing life!!!!! New subscriber just like that!
Such a great video guys!! Thanks for sharing ... can’t wait for the next one
I love how independant cole is awesome and also love that charisma let cole figure out his problems and dont help him until he ask her to thata really awesome ....god bless yoh guys
I just found this channel and I’ve never met anyone who was quadriplegic much less disabled in anyway so I really am learning a lot. So glad you made this video because I saw Cole driving in other videos and was wondering how. Innovation and technology has really come a long way. Love the videos and both your energies. ❤️
This is pretty cool😎Awesome truck.Sorry for the frustration Cole, Your amazing and have determination.Your my hero

I literally love every single video that you make!❤️❤️❤️
Hey, it would be cool to see a wheelchair challenge video where Charisma or Cole's family members roll out in chairs too. I wonder what reactions you guys would get and everyone can see things from Cole's perspective.
Pimp my ride...Cole, you are so cool and funny. Thank you for not editing out your frustration. I was cheering you on because i know it was one of those camera is on type of moments and your probably don't need that many times otherwise. Stay Positive😉
