    I’m so thrilled that people are coming here after seeing “Clouds” and learning more about him! Was so devastated when he passed away. I encourage everyone to learn more about childhood cancer and osteosarcoma, it is not as rare as people think. 1 in every 285 kids will be diagnosed with cancer before their 20th birthday, and only 4% of all money in the national cancer institute goes to childhood cancers. Osteosarcoma hasn’t had a new drug treatment in over 30 years. We need to do better!

Have you any respect for Zach? Don't you understand that your comment has so many negative connotations to it? The implications of these connotations also have such a negative impact on its viewers. You are the one creating negativity in the comments of a video where you should be humble and respectful. Think twice before asking such a redundant question.

      +UndeadNeko302 Everyone handles grief or hard to handle topics/themes/stories in different ways. Plus there's always the emotional detachment alot of people have when something isnt happening right in front of them. Its not really fair to call someone cruel or that their heart was black, humans are social creatures we form our ideals and morals largely based on the area we live and grow up in. Besides directing hate or bitterness towards more hate or bitterness dosent help. Keep a positive outlook no matter what and try and help others reach a positive outlook themselves.

      Sad but true. I remember our history teacher back in high school showed real film of the piles of human bodies of WWII concentration camp victims being moved around and buried in mass graves. There were close ups of their lifeless bodies, etc., and so many kids in class were laughing at it. If this is the sort of cold hearted, dark, selfish, callousness inside of so many people, then it makes me sad for this world's future. I like to be kind, but to be honest, I've grown tired of so many others' coldness over my 41 years on this earth.

    How could you dislike this video? I'm a 15 year old guy and I sobbed throughout the whole thing. No one wants to think about death because it's so scary, but he lived it every day and was happier than I ever am. Him and his family are incredibly strong. I read the fault in our stars and this little film reminded me of it. But this is real life and the only reason the book was so good was because it was an unrealistic outcome for a situation like that. But he was the real thing. My worst fear is being told how much longer I have to live. Because I am 100% positive that my assumed life expectancy would tear me to shreds and would live out the rest of my time absolutely miserable. I need a hug after seeing this, it's so inspiring but so unfair.

      I have my own views.
      I liked the thing, it was a touching story. But there is one small problem.
      People die like this every day. Hundreds, maybe thousands. And even if they went through as much grief as Zach's family, it seems almost insulting to glorify one person's death while not caring about another.
      If we all are to die, why do so few get chosen to have their lives told in this way? What makes one's death more important than someone else's?
      You can argue it was his musical talent. But if he had not had that cancer, if he lived his life out like a normal human being, and died at peace in his 90s, would "clouds" have been the monstrous hit it was? Maybe. But the song's success was built on guilt. If you didn't like the song, you didn't approve of a dying teenager's final thoughts on life. People would say you were a soulless monster.
      Its not that his death is tragic, its that many people go through this suffering without 14 million UA-cam views. If you had a relative die from cancer, does it seem far that their life went without the media's notice and Zach did?
      I say yes, it is reasonable to cry at this. It is normal to feel sad. But do not glorify his death, as hundreds suffer the same way as we speak.

    • @Ben-jp8kb
      @Ben-jp8kb 8 років тому +14

      Sam Katz I understand where you're coming from and agree that his death shouldn't be anymore glorified than anyone elses. But I don't think I glorified him passing more than I would anyone else's death. If there was a video for every single person that died, I'm sure I'd feel moved for all of them, and I don't know where you got the idea that I don't care about the other people that died because of course I do, I know it might appear that way because I didn't mention anyone else, but this video wasn't about them and I don't think there's anything wrong with that. And why is it so bad to have millions of people standing by him and sending loads of support to his family to help them get through this process. I know that this is only one person and we should acknowledge that this happens all the time and we don't support them because we can't support everyone but if there's an opportunity to share this type of thing to people I think that's great. And my grandmother passed away from cancer about three years ago and I didn't care that she didn't get tons media attention because she knew that we cared and we knew that we cared and we didn't need millions of people supporting us to show that.

    I really love how they captured this family in the movie. It’s so accurate, and i love how they didn’t change it for a movie. This movie really keeps the memory of Zach alive.

    He has such a beautiful genuine smile that has a calming effect. So tragic he did not live past 18 and has live more than most of us. Rest in eternal peace Zack!

    He's the sweetest boy and his laugh is so precious. Rest in peace Zach. You're brilliant. You've impacted more people in 17 years than most people will do in 90+ years

    To Mrs. Sobiech, you spoke at my church yesterday about not only Zach's story, but the grace of god and how in situations that are hard to handle, keep going and have gratitude for every opportunity you have gotten from god. I love this story and Zach has taught me so much about how life is amazing because life is what you make it. I thank you, and I thank Zach. You are forever in my heart and god bless you.

    For almost a decade I have had an album in my phones where I store photos of the wonderful skies I see. It's titled "Up, Up, Up" and every time I add a photo, I can hear the song he wrote in my head :)

    I was only 8 years old when he died. And being able to know him now that I am 18 years old already makes me feel so happy. He's an inspiration and a real angel sent from above. You will forever have a special part here in my heart, Zach Sobiech. 🕊

    What a beautiful, talented, loving, caring young man. He has changed the lives of everyone who knew him, for the better. The film “Clouds “ filled my heart. So much courage for someone so young. A brilliant film about an amazing person. R.I.P Zach ❤️🇬🇧
