I'm so sorry, dude. We are all seeing his legacy play out through your adventures and success. Remember his best days and he will never be gone. Rest in peace.
I come back here every now and then just to remind me how amazing life is. Don't take anything for granted while you have it. Man my heart breaks every time I watch it but I leave so grateful for life. You're an amazing guy, James. Thanks again for your huge heart and true love for everything you do.
This video brought me to tears. James I’m so incredibly sorry for your loss. Your father is still here in spirit. Life doesn’t end with death. Our relationship with others doesn’t cease with the end of a physical body. I believe my dad is my biggest guardian angel constantly look out for me, and I believe the same with your father. My condolences to you and your family. Me, as well as thousands of others, are here if you need anything. You are loved 🖤
@@mangogameing508 shut up the mans talking about how painful it is to have something like this happen and ur talking about how this guys one of ur favourite UA-camrs, not the right time man
My dad died 20 years ago. Im 30 today. I still cry like this some days and honestly its the best therapy there is. Drive to his grave or favorite spot and talk about the shit you can't talk to anyone else about. It will hurt but I promise it'll make the other days easier.
I lost my dad when I was 8 I'm only 11 now its been 3 years since I've seen him btw i'm sorry for your loss it's one of the hardest things in life to deal with
@@jessicacremer6728 I'm sorry for your loss ❤️ don't suppress your emotions no matter how big they feel and live every day trying to make him smile/proud. My happiest times are those where I think "man, dad would be so proud of me"
@@Itjayyy death is sad. But it’s something we have to accept, for we will deal with it all of our lives. We will face death one day. There is no way of escaping it.
Wow, this is the most raw unfiltered conversation about a loss I’ve ever seen. So used to seeing you always happy, your content is always so refreshing and you inspire millions around the world with your happiness. So sorry for your loss and appreciate you being so authentic with us, nothing but love from Ireland!
James I rewatch this video at least once a month and I cry…God bless my man….my dad is 3500 miles away and many times I think I don’t talk to him enough. This video is golden ❤
@@oakenmind he’s a troll that posts on everybody’s comments to get clout. Check a bunch of other comments. He is trying to use this guys loss for a platform to gain more attention. It’s disgusting.
To Strad: Dont worry, your dad is in heaven and he will always be watching you from above proudly. My great-grandma recently passed and I was having a very hard time coping, especially my grandma. Keep up all your hard work and dont forget, your dad will always be with you. God bless you. ❤
i still watch this video all the time and it makes me cry, because of how much i love my dad, and when he inevitably passes im going to be so distraught. he gave me everything and continues to do so, thank you james
Don’t worry Strad its been more than a year your dad would be so proud of u Remember your dad will be always with u protecting you!😊 Ur dad will be never forgotten everyone is proud of you
Yo stradman if you see this man I went through the same thing man but all of us subscribers we all love you man and we all have your back and we just hope your ganna be ok and if you do see this we all love you your a amazing person and a great UA-camr and I hope you will pull through. And please don't mind my spelling I'm not the best at it.
February 2nd 2022 4:06PM my step dad died. Due to covid and complications with COPD. I called the ambulance. When they finally got there he passed. They tried to bring him back and took him to the ER with me racing behind them and somehow brought him back after 45 minutes. But 45 minutes is too long to not have oxygen to the brain. He was a fighter. With him stating to us he did not want brought back. And with all scans coming back as brain dead. We let his body go. He waited till I left the room so I didn't have to see him again. Thank you Ted. Thank you for helping fix my car. Thank you for going on drives with me. For letting me send it in my first car with you. I wish I could show you my new car. I know you'd like it. I still have your seabring. It's getting repainted to give to mom for you. We all miss you every day. R.I.P Ted.
Discovered this a year, soon to be 2 years later. Your dad died on my birthday, as well, which makes it even worse on my own perspective. I've been watching you for quite a while, and I already knew you're a lovely person. This video shows that you really are amazing, I wish I could be just like you. You're my idol, Strad. When I grow up, I want to just be like you. You're amazing, keep it up, we all love you. In loving memory of your dad, may he watch over you until the day you get to see him again. He's very proud of you, we all know that. Never stop being such an amazing son of your dad. #StradDad
I feel your pain . Rip to your dad may he fly high higher than any of us ever can . I'm deep into cars myself. When I got my s6v10 it killed me the first night driving I wanted to have my step dad with me. He died before I bought that car. He didn't see it. I'm hoping he got to still see me in it from the other side. I miss him just as much as u . They take a piece of us when they leave. Honor him by driving the hell out of that car. Red line her till fire pops out the exhaust. I still do it for him and I can say I almost feel him when I do it. Godbless u and rip to your dad . This video is from a year ago but I hope u healed . No cap I'll rev my car a few times for your dad. Rip to your dad. May God continue to be with u man. Keep going up that's the only way from here on out.
Don’t worry man we’re all here for you my dad died because of a lot of mental issues and I had called him on a Sunday the next day my mom was crying saying something happened to and I never saw him again I feel you and some ways but just remember your family and your fans are here for ya we love ya man I’m so sorry for your lost😢
I freaking cried and I don’t usually cry my heart goes out to you and your family this hits close to home I’m so sorry for your loss you’ve got one of the biggest UA-cam/ social media family behind you and your family love you bro R.I.P papa strad “ gone but never forgotten “😢❤️
I wished I never saw that man without a smile he always smiles makes me happy just watching him and seeing him sad makes me cry bro I’m sorry for your lost
I’m so sorry dude. It’s strong of you to share your emotions and he’d be so proud of you and all of your accomplishments. Keep it up buddy - keep on spreading your positivity and silliness.
I lost my dad 7 years ago to a heart attack, 2 weeks after his 60th birthday, 4 months before my son was born. I know the pain and struggle. I have donated $100 to the America heart association In your name. Stay positive my friend.
Strad, you gotta know that your dad was one of the most or if not the most proud dad ever. He was so proud of you and was your biggest fan. I hope you're ok.
I have watched his content for 3-4 years now and he makes my day with his happiness and I feel his sadness, he has helped me to stay happy through covid and i cant thank him enough for his content
@@turbokid99 do you understand how hard it is to lose the man who taught you what life was about and everything good about life everything had and a role model and a friend I can’t even begin to imagine what it would be like he might be I hope he’s not but everyone handles it differently some people suffer in silence and some are vocal like James it really sucks and there’s nothing you can do about it
@@turbokid99 most of the time when we cry we hold some of it But in the beginning he didn’t hold his feeling at all and that’s why he completely broke down It sound very fake for some reason too
I'm so sorry dude there's nothing that anybody can say to make you feel better all you can do is keep him in your memory as top priority for the rest of your life until everybody else how amazing of a person he was because of him you are what you are today take care buddy ..... You may or may not believe this but he is there with you all the time he is always by your side when you making those decisions he is there without you realising that his influencing whatever you are deciding to do he is obviously a very proud father and very proud of you you have become very very successful and the only reason that has been is because you have had a very good parent upbringing which taught you never to give up and push yourself forward regardless of what life might throw at you and that's all down to your parents bring you up correctly you can cry doesn't matter who cares what people think at the end of the day it's something that everybody does with their admitted or not it's up to them he was an amazing father to you as you've said you just keep on going ahead for him you keep on moving forwards for him because when he left this world he left it knowing that you would not quit you would move forwards and make him even more proud and like I said before yes he is looking down at you but he will also be by your side believe me I've seen these things in reality with other people it's not rubbish it's true do what you do cuz you do it well make your father proud Keep on going forwards buddy....... Take care and look after yourself and remember don't give in or give up make your father and your family proud there's lots of people in this world that love you with you know it or not
as someone who never liked cars. this man helped me love cars. that's how I became a car guy. hearing this made me tear up, you're are one of the biggest legends ever
1 year later and I have watched this 3 times.. and I have cried 3 times. Seeing your Love for your dad makes me miss mine. Thank you James and the car is absolutely amazing!
@@jakebriscoe why are we worrying about him liking cars when we should be worrying about James dad and James himself, is that all you care about? If someone likes cars and so?
Never thought I’d cry over a UA-cam video until I saw this… it’s so sad that this happened to you stradman I’m sorry that this happened and I always love your videos
I just watched your video of you selling the Bugatti and for some reason, I felt like I needed to watch this video again. Your dad is proud. Very proud. Keep hustlin James.
I’m so sorry to hear this man! My dad struggles with his health as well (stroke) So it hits home. Your dad is definitely looking down at you in full peace and smiling for sure! RIP!
Definitely hits home for you Mike! It might be harder for you though since you can't see him since he as often as you would want due to that he lives overseas...... How is he?
@@biitle He didn’t downplay it. He just said that it’s harder for him because he can’t see his Dad. Strad took solace that he spent quality time with his dad before he passed.
Man…this hit me hard. You never know when it’s going to be the last time you see you loved ones….It’s a beauty bro..Your father is smiling down on you 😢
I come back here every now and then just to remind me how amazing life is. Don't take anything for granted while you have it. Man my heart breaks every time I watch it but I leave so grateful for life. You're an amazing guy, James. Thanks again for your huge heart and true love for everything you do. rest in peace
I’m so very sorry for your loss man. I completely understand how you feel because I lost my mom on Valentine’s Day 2021, a brother on Labor Day in 2021 and another brother on my birthday in 2022. I would like to say thank you for posting this video and sharing this with us at such a painful moment. Even though we don’t know each other I can tell by the way you talk about your dad that he would be extremely proud of you. I look forward to more of your videos.
Came back to watch this one a 2nd time. I watched it when it initially came out, and it was just as powerful seeing it again today. My girlfriend lost her Dad this past June unexpectedly, and another friend lost his Dad unexpectedly this last Sunday :( . So difficult to lose such important figures in our lives, but I'm certain this is a car he saw this, smiled with tears in his eyes, and is extremely proud of as he rides shotgun.
@Josiah Oliver can you please watch the video it’s not a freaking joke. This is a serious topic. His dad passed away. Stop trying to be funny and get attention.
Bro I've been going through some of your videos today and I came across this one and I was okay until you got to the part about your Dad never lying to you and then I lost it 🙏🏾 my Dad passed away in 09 and I was nowhere near as close as you were with your Father. Papa Strad will always be with you I know your parents are extremely proud of you and he was right your day is going to come it's pretty much already here. So sorry for your loss rest in peace to your father God bless your family and your friends. I'll always be a fan of this channel and continue to follow your story and your journey salute 🙌🏾
I've watched this video so many times.. it's touching and my father got me into cars and this video is such a reminder to cherish all the moments! No mater the size.. I hope someday I get the opportunity to drive my dad up and down the freeway in a lambo... with all the love to you and Strad-dad!
Even after he lost his father, he was still able to force together a smile and tell us the good news first. He is truly a marvel. So sorry for his loss.
I did not think I was going to cry to a video of a Pink Lamborghini but here I am. I know this video is a year + old and you will never see this comment but I wanted to say... I think the way you filmed this, the emotion and with your heart on your sleeve showed more strength than I have ever seen. The way you spoke about material possessions being pointless when some people would "do anything for a Lambo" really puts things into perspective. The only thing that was heavy on your heart was your late father and money can buy everything in the world besides time. I know for a fact your dad is proud of you. Not because of your success, not because of your cars or charitable work you may do but because you are a Genuine Good Person. Everything he taught you shows in this 13 minute video. He showed you how to be honest, he showed you humility, he showed you how to cherish others, to value your time with them and he showed you that you should never give up because your dreams are only one step away. You did exactly what your dad had planned for you the whole time and you kept your morals and values while doing so. I haven't called my dad recently because I've been going through some depression and feel like nobody can help me through my own issues. I feel like as a Man I have to find the way through alone. He reaches out quite often and I blow him off. I love my Dad and this honestly broke my heart and made me feel like no amount of money or problems financial should get in the way of your true loved ones and appreciating the days you wake up and life you live. For that I thank you. You didn't know that a moment of pain being recorded for your viewers would touch so many lives and change them for the better but I can't be the only one. This was a much more important video than you will ever know.
My man I feel this is your Best video. The raw emotions and Love for your father is the best gift to give to him... always remembering is the Greatest Gift❤
i’m so sorry you have to go through that. That’s definitely something super hard to go through. I respect you for making this video explaining what happened. stay strong my friend!
Same way I’ve been watching him for every day since 2019 and I know it is not that long of a time but it does break my heart seeing him cry rip papa strad

The fact that James picked up the camera and filmed and edited for us is insane. I think all of us feel sad. Stay strong
Losing a parent sucks, but man, hes acting hard here. TRust me.
@@turbokid99 do you understand how hard it is to lose the man who taught you what life was about and everything good about life everything had and a role model and a friend I can’t even begin to imagine what it would be like he might be I hope he’s not but everyone handles it differently some people suffer in silence and some are vocal like James it really sucks and there’s nothing you can do about it
@@turbokid99 most of the time when we cry we hold some of it
But in the beginning he didn’t hold his feeling at all and that’s why he completely broke down
It sound very fake for some reason too
So true man
True mate
your dad is proud of you no matter what i bet he has a good life in heaven looking over you RIP may God bless him
I haven't cried in years - nothing could bring me to it. Your emotion here is so palpable that the tears were flowing. Holy shit
At least he got to see his son become extremely successful while remaining humble. RIP Pops.
No words can do your loss justice but know that our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.
No

anyone else rewatching this a year and a half later when hes moving into his bagilion square foot home? Bros a real one.
As a kid I was crying. You dad must be really proud of you.
I can’t be the only one that cried watching this...James is such a good man
yes
I lot cried dude
Trust me i did to
No u are not
It is just so sad
“I had 32 years with him, I wish I had one more day.” Now that, hit me hard
same :(
Same:(
Same:(
It hurts like hell because Stradman wanted his Dad see him get married, have his first child, etc --- now his Dad won't be there for life moments
That hurt me hard too and I understand bruh...
I'm so sorry dude there's nothing that anybody can say to make you feel better all you can do is keep him in your memory as top priority for the rest of your life until everybody else how amazing of a person he was because of him you are what you are today take care buddy ..... You may or may not believe this but he is there with you all the time he is always by your side when you making those decisions he is there without you realising that his influencing whatever you are deciding to do he is obviously a very proud father and very proud of you you have become very very successful and the only reason that has been is because you have had a very good parent upbringing which taught you never to give up and push yourself forward regardless of what life might throw at you and that's all down to your parents bring you up correctly you can cry doesn't matter who cares what people think at the end of the day it's something that everybody does with their admitted or not it's up to them he was an amazing father to you as you've said you just keep on going ahead for him you keep on moving forwards for him because when he left this world he left it knowing that you would not quit you would move forwards and make him even more proud and like I said before yes he is looking down at you but he will also be by your side believe me I've seen these things in reality with other people it's not rubbish it's true do what you do cuz you do it well make your father proud Keep on going forwards buddy....... Take care and look after yourself and remember don't give in or give up make your father and your family proud there's lots of people in this world that love you with you know it or not
as someone who never liked cars. this man helped me love cars. that's how I became a car guy. hearing this made me tear up, you're are one of the biggest legends ever
A wise man once said “never give up, and always move forward”. -Stradman, 2017
u are so f**king right my guy
Ikr Jacob

It’s been some time, but ever time I watch this, I can’t control my tears. I’m so sorry.

steven schapiro likes cars!? 😮
Agreed man!
@@jakebriscoe why are we worrying about him liking cars when we should be worrying about James dad and James himself, is that all you care about? If someone likes cars and so?
@@300mags2 exactly
STEVEN WTF I didn’t know you liked cars. I watch your videos all the time!
the happiest man on earth crying, really heavy stuff
True
Yep…
My dad lost his dad and i only saw him once nov 9
Never thought I’d cry over a UA-cam video until I saw this… it’s so sad that this happened to you stradman I’m sorry that this happened and I always love your videos
I just watched your video of you selling the Bugatti and for some reason, I felt like I needed to watch this video again. Your dad is proud. Very proud. Keep hustlin James.
I did the same thing bro!!!
I’m so sorry to hear this man! My dad struggles with his health as well (stroke) So it hits home. Your dad is definitely looking down at you in full peace and smiling for sure! RIP!
Definitely hits home for you Mike! It might be harder for you though since you can't see him since he as often as you would want due to that he lives overseas...... How is he?
Love your videos my man. Greetings from the 🇬🇧
@@TaffPlays dont downplay others situations
@@biitle I wasnt, i care about his father too
@@biitle He didn’t downplay it. He just said that it’s harder for him because he can’t see his Dad. Strad took solace that he spent quality time with his dad before he passed.
Your Dad is proud of you man. We all are. My condolences 💙🙏
Me a fan of you dude this sad
Yes we are, may he rest in peace 😭😇
He is proud
He is so proud of you
Periodt!!!
Man…this hit me hard. You never know when it’s going to be the last time you see you loved ones….It’s a beauty bro..Your father is smiling down on you 😢
I come back here every now and then just to remind me how amazing life is. Don't take anything for granted while you have it. Man my heart breaks every time I watch it but I leave so grateful for life. You're an amazing guy, James. Thanks again for your huge heart and true love for everything you do. rest in peace
I started crying immediately as soon as James said “I’m sorry guys I can’t.”
mee too . James please dont cry.😭🙏
Same
@@TiRtH_PaTeL I’m crying
Same
I am can’t stop crying it’s been a hour and a half
Some say real men don’t cry. But we all know real men do cry. Real men are so strong that they know that tears are not a sign of weakness.
Yup. James has balls of steel to do this video
yes real men do cry stradman is the stronkest man i have ever met
Yes, that idea of a real man is dum, stradman shows what a real man is
Real men also also have a hot pink Lamborghini
Stradman is the strongest man and his dad is a big part of that
I’m so very sorry for your loss man. I completely understand how you feel because I lost my mom on Valentine’s Day 2021, a brother on Labor Day in 2021 and another brother on my birthday in 2022. I would like to say thank you for posting this video and sharing this with us at such a painful moment. Even though we don’t know each other I can tell by the way you talk about your dad that he would be extremely proud of you. I look forward to more of your videos.
Came back to watch this one a 2nd time. I watched it when it initially came out, and it was just as powerful seeing it again today. My girlfriend lost her Dad this past June unexpectedly, and another friend lost his Dad unexpectedly this last Sunday :( . So difficult to lose such important figures in our lives, but I'm certain this is a car he saw this, smiled with tears in his eyes, and is extremely proud of as he rides shotgun.
It takes a real man to cry on camera. Fly high stradmans dad🙏🏼🕊
It does
And a man to cry from watching another man's loss, the Strad clan mourns
This was a hard video to get through 😔
Its so heartbreaking to see you crying my brother ... I'm so sorry for your loss💔🙏
Pray for Strad guys he needs it ✊✊🙏🙏
@Josiah Oliver can you please watch the video it’s not a freaking joke. This is a serious topic. His dad passed away. Stop trying to be funny and get attention.
@Josiah Oliver dude what is wrong with u

Bro I've been going through some of your videos today and I came across this one and I was okay until you got to the part about your Dad never lying to you and then I lost it 🙏🏾 my Dad passed away in 09 and I was nowhere near as close as you were with your Father. Papa Strad will always be with you I know your parents are extremely proud of you and he was right your day is going to come it's pretty much already here. So sorry for your loss rest in peace to your father God bless your family and your friends. I'll always be a fan of this channel and continue to follow your story and your journey salute 🙌🏾
Its ok man i love you and you are loved by your many subscribers and were with you throught the power of the lord you will be healed
He is always so happy, and it ruins me to see him cry
That's what hit hardest for me. To see someone with such joy and a positive outlook on life be so torn is heartbreaking 💔
I feel the same

Seeing James cry is the saddest thing ever, RIP PAPA STRAD
Yeah RIP Papa Strad
Ikr I started crying too lol
Yep
İm sure he was a great dad.
I have never seen him cry
I've watched this video so many times.. it's touching and my father got me into cars and this video is such a reminder to cherish all the moments! No mater the size.. I hope someday I get the opportunity to drive my dad up and down the freeway in a lambo... with all the love to you and Strad-dad!
Moment of silence for your father may he Rest In Peace🕊🕊
😢✊🏻
😭😓😢
I can't breathe cause of how much I'm crying
Even after he lost his father, he was still able to force together a smile and tell us the good news first. He is truly a marvel. So sorry for his loss.
Yeah , i never saw him crying this video broke my heart 😞 I always see him smiling, laughing, having fun , hope I never see him again crying 😔
I did not think I was going to cry to a video of a Pink Lamborghini but here I am.
I know this video is a year + old and you will never see this comment but I wanted to say... I think the way you filmed this, the emotion and with your heart on your sleeve showed more strength than I have ever seen. The way you spoke about material possessions being pointless when some people would "do anything for a Lambo" really puts things into perspective. The only thing that was heavy on your heart was your late father and money can buy everything in the world besides time. I know for a fact your dad is proud of you. Not because of your success, not because of your cars or charitable work you may do but because you are a Genuine Good Person. Everything he taught you shows in this 13 minute video. He showed you how to be honest, he showed you humility, he showed you how to cherish others, to value your time with them and he showed you that you should never give up because your dreams are only one step away. You did exactly what your dad had planned for you the whole time and you kept your morals and values while doing so. I haven't called my dad recently because I've been going through some depression and feel like nobody can help me through my own issues. I feel like as a Man I have to find the way through alone. He reaches out quite often and I blow him off. I love my Dad and this honestly broke my heart and made me feel like no amount of money or problems financial should get in the way of your true loved ones and appreciating the days you wake up and life you live.
For that I thank you. You didn't know that a moment of pain being recorded for your viewers would touch so many lives and change them for the better but I can't be the only one.
This was a much more important video than you will ever know.
This is a real man. Not afraid to cry out loud in public in front of a camera.
Agreed!
He sure is. RIP Dad.
He defines is
R.I.P James Dad
The only youtuber crying that is actually legit and heartbreaking
We fucking love the shit out of you man your a hero and a legend in my eyes thank you so much for being you!
My man I feel this is your Best video. The raw emotions and Love for your father is the best gift to give to him... always remembering is the Greatest Gift❤
i’m so sorry you have to go through that. That’s definitely something super hard to go through. I respect you for making this video explaining what happened. stay strong my friend!
I've been watching this guy for years, and to see him cry like this, breaks me. Love you man, your dad was the best.
Same way I’ve been watching him for every day since 2019 and I know it is not that long of a time but it does break my heart seeing him cry rip papa strad
yeah 😔. Well said my friend
Same, this was hard to watch. It's hard after seeing him so pumped all the time, just deflated, and hurt. It was real, and raw.
RIP PappaStrad
same :(
Rip Papa strad
We love your dad rest in peace to the coolest dad in the world we will remember him 😭😭
You got your answer to why he wasn’t uploading that you commented in the last video.
@@kubapamula5577 yes😭
We love papa strad
Sending love and support stay strong

Youre not only one who got little tier

I wish this never happened, rip.
@Ba Oaic F off
@@lukeparsram9925 I agree like we are talking about someone’s death and u link a random Chinese video. Like if you don’t have anything to say just watch the video or leave. I’m talking to you @Ba Oaic
I've never seen James cry, or ever even pictured him sad, he's always been optimistic and a ray of sunshine in our gloomy world. We are all sorry for your loss James, you can take time off from posting videos if you need to, we understand.
