hi friends :) new adventure begins on our Seek channel right here 😇
im really inspired and feel motivated , i wish i had more time :)
Ok
awesome
Ive never done a comment like this and i know the chances of you seeing this are low but i just want to let you all know how much you've inspired me these past few years, especially you Ammar. You remind me of me when im at my happiest. ever since i was little ive always been fascinated with space, not because of the stars or aliens, but the worlds beyond ours. when i watch your videos thats how i feel. I feel like there is so much more to this world and i love it all. i saw a trainhopping video you did a couple years back in the Sahara and have been obsessed with it ever since. the Sahara, the train, the people, all seemed so unreal. It blew my mind that you guys did that and still does to this day. I know that even if you guys do see this that would be pretty impossible to pull off but i have hope. I hope you guys see this, youve literally made part of who i am today, that part that i cant find in anyone else, that part that just needs to be awakened by inspiring people like you. I promise i will never let go of my inner child, i promise to find more like me so that we can be like you. I love you all, I will always seek discomfort. God Bless.
So cringe
This is the best video on UA-cam, and your productions are getting better with every upload. So much emotion. Truly insipriational. Insane animations and FPV drone shots of the pyramids, and the jump gave me goosebumps. Love you guys and can't wait for our next adventure together!! :)
Drew I found you here
a collabo is long over due, last time you guys were together was in Mauratania if i am not mistaken
Let me join?
Literally had me tearing up how beautiful this video was this is the best thing I’ve seen on UA-cam
Agreed definitely the best
"i am home". the words of a child coming back to his roots, fulfilling the dream of a lifetime. this is absolutely wonderful!
This is so true, when i returned to india after 15 years i said exactly this went to the roof and cried
Love this yo
My first dream as a child was becoming an astronaut and to this day I'm still chasing this dream. I'm currently on the way to achieve my masters degree in Aerospace Engineering. After which I plan to start flight school whilst eagerly waiting for the next call of ESA astronauts! Ammar, you and the rest of the Yes Theory family have only inspired me more to keep chasing this dream, because I believe I can make it a reality! This astonishing video proves once again that the impossible is in fact possible no matter what people tell you! Much love from Belgium! ❤️👨🏻🚀🪂
Congrats bro! Wish you the best
This video made me cry about 4 times. It is so beautiful to see that Ammar got to fulfill his lifelong dream and to do it with his father, is a feeling that I am unable to put into words.
My lifelong dream since I was a child, is to travel the world, and have the ability to bring my parents along. It is hard to travel at such a young age and to bring your parents along is harder. I haven’t done this yes, and I wish that one day, I will be able to fulfill this dream.
Do it...within 5 years. Go for it.
"egypt is brighter with you in it" momma ammar seems like such a respectful, kind soul. bless her, alongside all her loved ones.
Just like many will comment below, I was in tears multiple times watching this. I feel like I've been on this journey with all of you from the videos, to the book, since close to the beginning.
Thank you for showing me and the rest of us that dreams do come true as long as you work, put the time in, and are relentless in the pursuit.
For that, I say thank you.
*To my childhood dream, I wanted to travel the world, just like my mom.
She was a travel agent for many of her younger years. Sadly, she passed away a little over a year ago from a rare disease called Scleroderma.
Last year I ran my first marathon and raised $2,700 for Scleroderma research in honour of her name. I would love to do this as well in honour of her.
If I'm not chosen, I'm just glad to have shared some of my thoughts and feelings to the world. God bless you all.
This made me smile, thank you 😊
That's a hard, painful disease, unfortunately I know.
At 60 years old, I too am a free child. I grew up in an era where people weren’t very tolerant of each other. My dream, even at 7 years old was to bring harmony. So much so that I would draw posters that were hung in the hallways of my school that was integrated for the first time ever. My dream hasn’t changed. Now, as I have become older, I love all things Egypt. Watching your adventure was a joy. Thank you for sharing.
thats amazing that your dream hasnt changed
The first dream I ever had as a kid was to proove I'm worthy... Thank you for making me realising my free child has been locked away too soon, too long. Thank you for everything. Beyond words. Love over fear.
love over fear and gratitude over fear
Is there a greater and more fitting compliment that “Egypt is brighter with you in it”? It’s so wholesome! Love it!
yup
When I saw the title I couldn't hold back. I had to stop everything. I knew what it meant immediately.
I am so happy this moment finally happened
In my 51st year, I feel we all are kids at heart. I lost my father on Dec 29th to colon cancer. I so wish I could have brought him to see the pyramids to see their beauty & mystery. My dream after seeing your video is to touch my Dad one more time, seeing that this is an impossibility.. sky diving over the pyramids is the next best thing... I might not be able to touch him, but I can be very close to him in heaven. Thank you for making this video it was very inspiring & touching.
you will see your dad again, on the other side. Meanwhile, enjoy your life and make him prouder.
As a long time follower, this one brought me to tears. Congratulations to you for your unwavering commitment to following your dreams. None of this happened without taking risk & the full circle moment landed right above the pyramids you dreamt of climbing all those years back.
Heli snowboarding is the first dream I can remember as a kid. To have a helicopter drop you at the edge of an untouched face, where no man has ever stood, and no line has ever been taken. I'm still in pursuit of this dream & I hope to accomplish it much like you did, Ammar!
Returning to YesTheory after having watched them years ago feels insane. So much change. I’m glad it’s good change.

Love you
I am a free child. Thank you so much for this inspiring video. It opened my heart in such a powerful way. Seeing that beautiful expression of your inner child’s greatest desire inspires and reminds me that it’s possible for me.
My first dream as a child was to be a famous performer. I loved to be on a stage and bring joy to people’s lives. Even in the school performances I remember feeling so overwhelmed with joy and excitement to be seen and admired and to be part of a work of art.
Life has been taking me along many different paths that I know is molding me into the person that will inspire, entertain and be loved by many. Thank you for sharing this story with the world. You have no idea how much it means to this free child in the Caribbean island of Tobago. ❤️🇹🇹🎉
Ammar!!! It gives me goosebumps to see you fulfilling your dream. And the whole production-it's incredible to see the progress. I'm just finishing Matt's book right now, and connecting all the dots and timelines about the whole story and seeing it here made me tear up a bit🥺
About my childhood dream. As a girl from the city of Prague in the Czech Republic, I always sought more warmth, sea, and palms (we always want something we don't have). I wanted to be a world-known adventurer going on expeditions in tropical countries, helping the environment and endangered animals. I am 24 now and have spent the last couple of years traveling around the world, finishing a degree in environmental management, and teaching yoga. Soon, I will go back to SE Asia to volunteer and backpack. And I can say I owe a lot of that to you guys. Without your videos, I might have never stepped out of my comfort zone and booked the first one-way ticket. :) THANK YOU💛 btw. If you would ever planned to shoot in Prague, I got y'all!!! 🥰
My keyboard is all blurry now. I can't even begin to look for the right words to explain what I'm feeling right now. What an honor to witness a person fulfill their childhood dream. What a privilege to be let into your journey. I have never felt more inspired, I have never felt this kind admiration and respect. This video is truly the most beautiful video I've ever seen on this platform. Everyone needs to see this. Ammar, you are a hero. You're showing us that dreams do come true, if you give it what it takes.
This is easily my all time favorite video. I know I'm just some random guy on the internet, but, I can't help but be incredibly proud of Ammar. Being able to finally come home and see his family, and even skydive with his Dad? That's just incredible. Thank you for sharing your journey over the years.
Watched the egypt videos 7 years ago as a 14 year old teenager, now watching it happen as a 21 year old woman, crying my eyes out. We are so proud of you Ammar🪂💙
Writing this in tears! My first dream was to be painter, after my dear uncle bought me colored pencils while visiting in Syria. Sadly, he was killed in the war and I have not visited Syria since 2010. My now dream is to visit Syria with my mom, and to experience skydive, as I always have been so inspired by Yes Theory and other skydivers that the best experiences are out there waiting for you
This is my first comment I’ve ever left on UA-cam… this story moved me to the extent that I needed to say something. Watching your Dad jump with you, knowing his fear of heights, was so powerful. And, you, pursuing your dream in your homeland is beautiful. Congratulations! Thank you for sharing and inspiring us.
I am weeping. To see this journey unfold over the years through all of the pain and adversity to this pure, beautiful celebration of a moment is so incredibly inspiring in infinite ways. Had me in tears of joy!
Me too!
Im still crying
What is the first dream I ever had as a kid? Adventure and fiction always went hand in hand with me, and so naturally, I always dreamt of being an author. From writing random short stories to jotting down every random plot idea that came to my young mind, it was always my dream. Now, as an adult, I'm making it happen. I've started writing my first book, a sci-fi dystopian, and man has it been a journey - I'm loving every second of it, and inshallah I believe that it's going to be one of a kind. Each word I write is a step closer to that childhood aspiration, a testament to the unwavering belief that dreams, when nurtured with passion and perseverance, can indeed take flight.
my first dream as a child was to be a guitarist, but I had terrible stage fright and anxiety. in college I decided to choose music performance so it would force me to overcome that fear. it is still something I work at now, but long story short I am now in Bristol, uk. I'm currently in my 3rd year of uni studying songwriting. I play lead guitar for a band and we had our first headline gig last Wednesday, at which my anxieties were present but manageable. my next goal is to start a solo project, playing guitar and singing (singing I have low confidence in) so I can follow and expand my dreams further. I hope that seeking discomfort in this new project will help me build confidence in my singing and songwriting ability. I am very internally driven for this, although its videos like this that help relight the spark of passion whenever I need a little boost and am feeling low. I love everything you guys do, big love! p.s. feel free to come along to a gig at anytime, perhaps one of you guys could join me on stage ;)
I cried with you when you stepped foot in Egypt again! You are such an inspiration to me and probably so many more people out there! Keep up the fantastic work with Yes Theory, and much love from Austria ❤
The cover of “Im coming home” in the back ground is what made my tears start going 😪😪. Happy for you AMMAR

same for me, i was in tears too! dude i am also from austria, we should link up if your down...

Hey Ammar, i am 22 years old Living in Cairo
as an Egyptian who's been following Yes Theory since the beginning, I've been deeply inspired by your journey and the meaning behind everything you've experienced. Watching this video really shows that noting is impossible no matter the circumstances.
i am really happy for you and your proud family.
Since I was a kid, I've always loved airplanes and been passionate about anything that flies.
My dream of leaving a fingerprint in the aviation industry has been a mix of determination and aspiration. i am seeking that dream by graduating in Aerospace Engineering this year, and I can't wait to see where it takes me!!
All the best with your Journey Mohamed !
@@ryanparampil6640Thank you ryan 🥰
my first dream as a child was to become a firefighter to be like my dad who was my hero growing up and help people who couldnt help them selves i had the honor of joining the same fire brigade that my father was one of the founders at and lived that dream for 11 years ive been able to help countless people along my journey where it being a firefighter a friend a brother or even a stranger to the crew of Yes Theory thank you for all the good times and all the stories youve shared with us fans and showing anything is possible as long as you say YES to everyone out there struggling with mental health or even just a bad day you got this keep your chin up and remember your never alone we love you and were all so so daym proud of you
The first dream I ever had as a kid was to become an architect. To help our environment and still make beautiful buildings. To make it more sustainable and affordable. To make the most beautiful things and let my creativity 100% do its thing.
Now I’m almost 19 and starting my architecture school in a couple months in my dream city with my very own apartment. I couldn’t be happier and I’m beyond excited for this journey to begin. ❤️
- PS: I of course always wanted to be a princess but that’s very unlikely to happen -> but I mean never say never ❤️
Love this video!!!
That is crazy how that video was 7 years ago. I started to watch this channel back when I was in high school. This channel helped me get out of my comfort zone. Since then, I've traveled to 7 countries and many cities throughout the US. One of my childhood dreams was to become a physical therapist and help support my single parent mom. And I am proud to say that I am currently a first year physical therapy student. My goal is to make her proud because she has supported me throughout this entire journey. Getting to skydive over the pyramids would be a dream of mine that I cannot even think that is possible. I have been wanting to skydive since I graduated undergrad in 2020, but COVID delayed it. I am fortunate that my boyfriend knew this and booked me a skydiving trip for my birthday last year and fell in love with the trill of falling through the sky.
Croinge
My first dream has been to cycle 40 000 km across the world… Which is the circumference of our beautiful Earth. I cycled so far 12 000, across 32 countries in Europe, Africa and the Middle East but had to put this dream aside for awhile to focus on my work and making a living. Every video of Yes theory gets me closer to jumping on my bike again and fulfilling this childhood dream of mine. Thanks guys and Mabrook Ammar !! The best video on the platform
Take this legend, yes theory!
What a video! Absolutely incredible and what an experience to jump over the pyramids!
My dream since childhood has always been to make movies that not only show the beauty and wonders of the world but also help people become a better version of themselves through cinematography. I cant wait to one day see one of my own film in cinemas with many people watching it! But to also see the world myself in all its glory and capture that.
The biggest dream and first dream I've ever had was to go skydiving, and I still haven't gone. I'm 32 years old, but god willing, I'll go one day. This video made me cry. It was beautiful for so many different reasons. Thank you so much for sharing. ❤
Not me crying watching this at the gym lol!!! I am so inspired endlessly by you Ammar. My husband is from Palestine; my best friend is from Egypt, I am from Ukraine. Watching you advocate, stay positive, and keep living your dreams out dream after dream has inspired us. I can’t wait to go back to Ukraine when it’s safe to be able to have the same feeling when you said “I am home” 🫶🥹
I’m crying from watching it while i’m doing my nails at salon 😅
I really just cried watching this. I‘ve been watching the channel for 6 years. Between all the ups and downs. Seeing a true childhood dream come true after everything that happened with Ammar is INCREDIBLE. Fucking love everything about this, your channel and (haven‘t met you yet but) you guys in general.
My childhood dream, as far as I can remember, has been visiting the national parks of Canada. Walking between the biggest trees of the world and being in breath taking nature.
I am so proud of you all. It’s so beautiful my heart feels so happy. I have tears of joy in my eyes. I appreciate you guys. I’m 62 years old and watch all your videos.. you’re never too old to be inspired❤
After nine years of following this channel and watching your journey it's incredible to finally see this dream come true. I still remember that Omar and Thomas initially found each other over Omars permit to skydive over the pyramids. It's great to see this come full circle and eventually close out this chapter.
The instrumental version of 'coming home' as Ammar literally is coming home in the airport in Egypt was perfect.
So happy for Ammar to finally go to Egypt after so many years. I can’t imagine having gone that long without being able to go back to my home country.
My childhood dream is to travel through Europe and cap it off by seeing the Northern Lights.
Talk about a tear jerker…. Must have cried 3 or 4 times briefly through out this. I say that in comfort and no shame at all because this was simply BEAUTIFUL and beyond motivating. I’m so grateful this world has people like you and your friends/family to spread light and utmost positivity in this dark world. Speechless. A true fan and follower for life. God Bless my friends.
Your story is an inspiration and I have never been so happy for another’s accomplishments. Thank you for sharing your personal moments and experiences. My first dream as a child was to make an impact on the world so great that others would remember my name. The first time I tried for this dream was at my 9th birthday when I asked my friends to bring canned food instead of getting me gifts, and afterward I donated all the food to a homeless shelter. Thanks again for making me feel like anything is possible, and I hope one day I will get to seek discomfort in the ways you do!
Hi, my name is Dhara and I'm a 23 year old living in the US. I have been following your journey in Yes Theory since Project 30, so when I saw the thumbnail of this video I was clicking on it before I even registered what I was about to watch. I am so happy for you Ammar! Getting to finally see your home again and accomplish your long held dream brought tears of joy to my eyes. Seeing you struggle and being constantly rejected and told no, I had wondered if you would ever make it here and have the courage to continue pursuing it. You've just accomplished such a core pillar of the yes theory story and I feel the gravity it. This story has beyond inspired me. I can't wait to see you build that city of seekers and like-minded individuals that you hope to one day.
Since I was a child, I have dreamed of working or volunteering in wildlife conservation. When I was around 9 years old, my parents created this campfire area in our backyard. Given the state of the environment with the glaciers melting and TREMENDOUS carbon emissions from a campfire, little me had to do something to stop it. So I put up posters all over my house protesting the campfire to save the penguins. It's a silly story, but it was the manifestation of that deep desire to help the environment and animals in need. Guided by high parental expectation and societal pressure, I ended up in mechanical engineering at a job I didn't enjoy. After a year, I quit in pursuit of figuring out what I really want to do with my life (about 3 months ago). In my soul-searching journey, I have gone back to my root desire of wildlife conservation and reached out to small group in the Bolivian Amazon that rescues wildlife (such as monkeys, jaguars, etc.) and rehabilitates them back into the jungle. I am now planning a trip this summer to spend my time there as a work exchange . I am as excited as I am terrified, since the conditions there are much different than how I spent most of my life (no electricity, more rustic conditions, snakes, bullet ants, tarantulas, high heat, and a lot of mosquitos) but my biggest desire is to push my limits. I know this will and so I am excited for my personal journey and everything I will learn about myself through this adventure.
One of the other dreams of mine since I found you all was honestly to meet you and go on an adventure. This group has so fundamentally changed the person I am and the way I have viewed life. From growing up in an immigrant family household with many limiting beliefs ingrained in me, you all are honestly what has shown me that there can be more to life than just what you see your parents and the people around you do. That you have the power to break your own preceptions of yourself and pursue the life you want however unconventional. And since connecting to this ideology I have been on a mission to continue breaking my self-created limitations. Yes Theory to me was like the pyramids to young Ammar haha.
To end this note, I just wanted to say again how amazing this story is and how inspired I am by you and the whole team. The group continues to evolve and it has been a priveledge to get to see this beautiful story!
I wish you all the best on your trip to Bolivia and all your future journeys! It sounds incredible ❤❤ i love this community and how it connects ppl from around the world. Seek discomfort!!
Bro used chat gbt😂
LMAOO im just unemployed and have too much free time 😂@@dion3302
The first dream I can remember was that I wanted to live in the United States. I was 8 and living in my home country The Netherlands. I didn't know how I was going do it, I didn't know when, I didn't even know why. I only knew that that was something that I was going to do. No matter what. I guess the American dream spoke to me. 13 years later, I am now 21 years old and I can proudly say that I have achieved that dream. I am now studying Psychology and Music at my dream school here in California and I'm having the time of my life! I am so thankful for this amazing opportunity and I can't wait to see what more the future has in store for me❤
Hey fellow immigrant! I also study in California achieving my american dream! Lets connect
Identical dream to me, except I'm from the UK and now past studying. Finding it harder and harder every year to try and achieve it.
Super vet dat je je droom aan het waar maken bent! Groetjes
wow!
Wow! This story deeply moved me. Tears flowed and goosebumps were definetely not missing. It’s just beautiful to see what can be made a reality. And it gives me hope to continue and pursue my dreams. I’m just proud about how you stayed so optimistic and enthusiastic and never stopped dreaming to get to this day. You are a role model. You’re are definitely one of my role models😊 I hope I will be able to meet you one day. I have never been seeking more discomfort than in the past few years.
Project Ammar deserves a Movie of it's own. It's on a whole other level!
Duuuuude that's awesome! Congratz! :D
ok
man i never thought i find you here you guys both make awesome content
For anyone curious, the helicopter they took was an old Russian military transport helicopter called Mi-8MTV-1
Why dont you apologise to jay
Never thought id see you here
Wow, you really know how to make one cry.. I don't know whats more beautiful.. Seeing you fullfilling you childhoods dream or you finally being united with your family in your homecountry after all you've been through! Amazing.. You're really inspiering for all of us who've been struggling with their roots and dreams..
I always dreamed about travelling the world without worrying about tomorrow or looking back. And I did escape home and traveled solo for over a year.. There is still so much to see! But it also teached me how important it is to have a place to call "home". I'm so happy for you!
What an amazing and emotional watch! Watching you fulfill your dream with your father alongside you had me sobbing in tears! Sending you so much love Ammar, be proud of yourself! Absolutely love the message too, never let your inner child die my friend! Ive been following your channel for the last 6 years and I just can't explain how happy I am to see you share so much joy with your family ones!
The very first dream I can remember was, I want to become a farmer and have animals like my grandfather, haha. Luckily I have this wonderful little child in me always coming up with new dreams to fulfill, and there is nothing I love more..
I was grinning ear to ear and crying tears of joy in this one. Was so moving as a longtime viewer. You're an amazing role model for your nephew. We love you Ammar. ❤
The joy and happiness i got from watching this is just undrescibable. Seeing Amar achieve his dream as i watched him thru hardships over the past years is just pure happiness
Years ago I did skydiving in Queenstown, New Zealand. The best way I could describe it: it's pure poetry.
My first dream was just to get to college. My parents didn’t grow up with the same opportunities as me. They had me and my brothers at a young age and worked their asses off for us to have more opportunities. I am currently finishing my last semester at Texas A&M University and finally about to complete my dream and my parents’ dream too. This would be a great second one. Just did my first skydive yesterday and it was great. I would’ve never done that if I didn’t watch your videos. They push me to seek different adventures everyday.
This decade long Egypt series… So inspiring. ❤
hey if anyone reading this hope you're having a good day, i need your help guys i recently lost my job and i have no more savings left and on top of that my little sister's tuition fee is overdue i tried everything to gather the funds and still i am unable to do so, please help me guys i need $5k for her fee , ill pay you back as soon as i get a job, i am in so much tention bills are piling up and now her fees please help me friends.
This is the most beautiful video on UA-cam right now. Brought me to tears
My first real dream as a child didnt come til I was 14-15. Scream crying hoping that life wouldn't always be as bad as it was then. After becoming a massage therapist and energy worker and helping people most of my life I have lived my freedom and made life better for me and the people that love me or have come to know me and love me. Now, I have taken care of my mother and my grandmother until she passed during Covid. My biggest fear right now is heights, and my biggest love right now is Sumerian/Egyptian history of the soul. And, seriously, my brother and I push each other to do what we talk about, and this year, it's to skydive, sew, buttons.... Seek discomfort.... plus that heli was badass and BIG
My dad is a musician and I started playing the guitar like him when I was younger. I wanted to be a rock star and my dream became to play at Wembley in London, most New Yorkers would probably dream of Madison Square Garden, but for some reason it was Wembley for me. As a teenager, I fell in love with football and I wanted to become a professional footballer, my dream remained to play at Wembley. Now both dreams are behind me but I'm still clinging to the possibility of playing in a charity match at Wembley (or Stamford Bridge) like you guys recently did. It's the earliest dream I can remember and I love that Wembley remained a constant even though my passion changed.
Watching Ammar soar above the majestic pyramids of Egypt stirred something deep within me. As someone whose childhood was a whirlwind of constant change and new beginnings due to my family's frequent relocations, I've always felt a kinship with the quest for freedom and exploration.
Growing up as an introverted kid in a perpetually shifting environment wasn't easy. Every move meant starting from scratch, making new friends, adapting to different cultures, and even learning new languages like a linguistic chameleon. But amidst the chaos, I developed an unwavering resilience and an insatiable hunger for adventure.
Now, as a quality engineer trapped in the monotonous rhythm of corporate life, I find myself yearning to break free from the confines of routine and rediscover the sense of wonder and possibility that fueled my childhood dreams.
Yes Theory's ethos of embracing discomfort and seizing life's opportunities resonates deeply with me.
Your journey to challenge societal norms and pursue the extraordinary reminds me of the dreams I once held dear but may have buried beneath the weight of adulthood responsibilities.
I've always dreamed of traversing the globe, experiencing diverse cultures, and embarking on my own passion project that aligns with my values.
Yes Theory's videos, from their groundbreaking documentary 'Project Iceman' to Ammar's triumphant skydive above the pyramids, reignite the flickering flame of ambition within me. They've shown me that it's never too late to reclaim my childhood dreams and forge a path towards a life filled with purpose and fulfillment.
So, as I stand at this crossroads of uncertainty, I look to Yes Theory not just for inspiration but for the courage and guidance to step outside my comfort zone, defy expectations, and pursue the extraordinary. Thank you, Yes Theory, for reminding me that the greatest adventures await those who dare to dream and seek discomfort 💪🏼 #LimitationsArePerceptions
That’s super interesting !
Thank you Karim ! 🙏🏼🤍
Good luck Dikra, I'm sure one day all your dreams will come true.
I really appreciate it Mehdi ☺️🙏🏼
Believe in yourself, because all the dreams have the potential to become reality. Good luck😘
This is, by far, my favourite yes theory video EVER. Not only because seeing the most ancient civilisation on earth in person has been my dream for as long as I can remember dreaming, but more so because I know what a deeply held dream this has been for Amar. To see it come to fruition with his dad by his side and his blood and chosen families cheering him on.....what an amazing moment ❤
I got a drumset when I was in 2nd grade. My father thought it was a crazy idea KNOWING the amount of nonsense loud noise that would come from it on a daily basis. For some reason though, my mom knew I needed one, she knew I was born to be a musician. From the time I got that drumset my goal was to make music my life and to climb my way to playing a show at Madison Square Garden. 15 years later I'm not there yet but I work daily at perfecting my craft and growing as a musician and a performer. I've gotten closer as the years and have been able to play larger venues with larger audiences but someday you'll see me at MSG and it'll all be worth it
Thank you so much for sharing your story Ammar. Leading up to the release of this video I rewatched all the videos that share your story. I feel honored to be one of the millions of people that get to watch you finally become the free child that you deserve. Your story brings one of my first childhood dreams to mind. This dream was born when I first found out that my high school graduation and golden 18th birthday would fall on the same day. As a kid, and still to this day I believe in the impossible. My younger self began planning my graduation/golden birthday. I had recently found out that it is legal to skydive when you turn 18. immediately I pictured skydiving, by myself, into my backyard. That grand entrance would be the perfect way to start my extravagant party. Now my graduation and golden birthday are in 3 months and I now know that my dream is dangerous to follow through on. But having the opportunity for my first skydive to be over the pyramids would fill the heart of my younger child.
Following Yes theory for 7 years and watching this video is heartwarming and most incredible thing , seeing myself as Mahmoud from Tunisia with the same passports issues and seeing myself in Ammar and what is he doing right now is a life changing even for me , my dream since I was kid is to travel the world and visit Japan , thanks to you guys , After 11 years from this dream started , I booked my flight ticket to JAPAN with no plans and nothing , I started achieving my goals thanks to you guys , I became a digital Nomad budget traveler ( wallah I am very thankful for that) and skydiving in one of my main activities that I am collecting for it and I believe that one day and going to do it
One of my first dreams as a kid was to go to Greece and see wild dolphins 🐬
Hey! Are you in Japan? Until when? I’m going for the first time after many years wanting to go
I am going to Japan in late April to mid may, I am going to do a full plan of hitchhiking and coushsurfing for it 😄
It’s been years since I’ve watched a Yes Theory video. The story telling in this brought me back to a younger me, where I would dream big and not stress as much about the future.
When I was 12, I read a book about mountaineers on Mount Everest. Being born and raised in the Midwest, I have never even seen a mountain. I instantly became obsessed by the wonder of mountaineering and would spend all night on the computer reading about different mountains, routes, and techniques. I told my parents I wanted to climb the 7 summits, but didn’t know where to start. They shrugged it off assuming it was a phase.
I had an uncle who lived in California, and upon mentioning this to him he told me about Mt Whitney. I was intrigued and determined to summit it so I could qualify for bigger mountains.
I mowed lawns all summer to save up enough to buy a plane ticket from Michigan to California. When I flew out there, my uncle and I attempted to hike it but quickly turned around due to weather. The next 4 years I repeated this process every summer, gradually making it higher on the mountain until I finally summited at 16.
Since then, my dream to climb the 7 summits has fizzled away. But my love for the mountains has only grown. When I was 18, I solo thru-hiked the JMT, summiting Whitney again. While on this hike, I met PCT hikers, who were hiking from Mexico to Canada. I was mesmerized by the adventure they were living. After hiking the JMT, I made a goal for myself to hike the PCT.
Fast forward, from 19 - 24, my passion took a backseat as I focused on school and starting my career as a data analyst. However, I started to not feel like myself as my dreams and passion dissolved with the corporate grind. My mental health started deteriorating.
Last year, I worked on finding more of a balance between corporate life and adventure. I took a mountaineering leadership course focused on technical skills and summited some bucket list peaks. I got promoted at work, but felt empty afterwards. My mental health was gradually getting worse, and then I was diagnosed with OCD.
The diagnosis scared me, but also made sense. The past 6 months I’ve been going through difficult therapy but my mental health has been improving.
This year, my goal is to reconnect with my younger self. After years of putting it off, I am quiting my job and hiking the PCT, starting in 2 months!
I am determined to use this time on trail to work on learning to be grateful and not overly self critical. To learn to manage and live with my OCD. To not let it rule me. And to find balance in the positive and negative.
Most importantly, I plan to share my ups and downs with the world. As we are all just doing our best :)
keep going brother
❤ follow your heart! You’ve got this!
You’ve got this!! Good luck and keep going 🙌🏻
Good luck! ☺️
Good English bro
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! My heart is filled with joy and hope. Thank you for letting us all witness this beautiful moment. One of my biggest dreams as a child was to see my mother enjoy a beautiful place surrounded by natural, animals, culture, colours, food, smells, community … everything she always talked about when I was growing up. Her dream to experience India and interact with a monkey (she loves monkeys but as never met one). My hardworking mãe, who always made sacrifices and gave everything and anything away for our family and neighbours in need, who always said yes when i asked to bring a hungry schoolmate home for dinner, who taught me to be cautious, but kind hearted, to never take anything for granted and to be greatful for everything i achieve in life with hard work. Making my 70 year old mothers dream come true would make me the happiest daughter in the world. This is my dream.
Love from a Portuguese friend, you are welcome to visit anytime!
What a beautiful, beautiful video. I wish I had seen this earlier but still want to share my first dream as a kid. It was to be an archaeologist and study in Egypt. Since I was little seeing the Pyramids and Sphinx has been my dream. My life didn’t take that path unfortunately but it is still my dream many, many years later to one day see the Pyramids in person.
Seeing them from the perspective of your sky dive brought tears to my eyes as did this whole episode. Ammar, you are an amazing person with an incredible pure spirit. My heart smiles for you that you and your Father got to share this incredible experience together.
I was crying of joy while watching this! I'm so so so happy for you like you're my family!
One of my dreams always was to see the pyramids since I also studied so much about them and I'm soo fascinated by them and the whole Egiptian legacy.
But my very first childhood dream was to become an astronaut and see the Space.
Thank you for this opportunity to participate in this giveaway and daydream once again.
To the whole team and their wonderful families: Stay with health and do more of what makes you happy!
You'll not believe that actually my childhood dream is to see the Pyramids since I had a topic related to Egypt in the school and started discovering and researching. I was so in love with Egypt and I am 31 now, yet it's not fulfilled. 1 anf half yrs ago I went to Egyptian Embassy made a visa, visa was approved and yet due to some circumstances I was not able to go and Inshallah some day I really wish to see the Pyramids. Whenever I open my passport I see Egyptian Visa without a stamp. You have waited for 7yrs and I have been waiting for more than 17yrs. Moved from India to Bahrain and Egypt is closer now so ya Inshallah soon this childhood dream will come true.
Ammar, watching this video as a Palestinian Arab born in America I can feel , the impact and emotion you’ve experienced , and I hope to experience the same. The amount of meaning in this episode is incalculable, the love for one’s country in unmatched and the gratitude I have for Yes Theory and for You is unbelievable. I feel the love of my country a million miles away. And although I’ve never been there I can feel the same impact you’ve had coming back to it. The warmth of your people and the atmosphere of your culture is my dream. The first dream I’ve ever had was to visit my country of Palestine . So I hope you can come across this message because before I even knew Yes Theory I embraced it, and appreciate you all so much. My first dream is to visit my country , and Africa is a close second 😂
The first dream I ever had was to become a master of magic, a wizard. As I learned that the type of magic I had in mind was not real, I switched to chasing being a scientist. Eventually, I did a bachelor's degree in computer science because being able to create anything out of few lines of code in a blank file felt like magic. Now, I am starting a new chapter in my life, aiming to understand the magic within, the magic of the brain, as I am applying for masters in neuroscience in the fall of 2024.
Thank you for this and many other stories that you have told, that have brought tears to my eyes and magic to our hearts and minds.
I was here when free child was first released 3 years ago and it astonished me how connected I felt to Amar's story. It was beautiful and I have been heartbroken and felt triumph along every step of Amar's journey to today's video. I have laughed, cried and loved every moment of this incredible journey 25 years in the making. Thank you Amar for involving all of us and showing us that on the path to our worst fears being realised we can discover ourselves and grow into the person we know we truly are and the person we are meant to be. Love over fear ❤
I cried. Alot 😂
Wow, watching this video brought back a flood of memories. As a small kid, I remember visiting the Austrian Alps with my family. I vividly recall taking the cable car up the mountain, feeling the excitement build with each passing moment.
But what stands out the most in my memory is the sight of another peak looming above us, just out of reach. I was too young to tackle the hike to that higher peak, but oh, how badly I wanted to see the world from its summit. In that moment, my cildhood dream was born within me, a dream to do the seemingly impossible and then behold the beauty only a few get to lay eyes upon.
Watching this video, I am reminded of that childhood longing. It's amazing how a single experience can ignite a passion that lasts a lifetime. Thank you for taking me on this journey and reminding me of the beauty that inspired my very first dream.
Yesss! I can definitely relate to that!
I mean the view of the piramides form above is as good as it gets
Mine is also quite similar. I always looked up to pilots and wondered what it must be like to see the whole world.
Which peak was it? was it Eiger? Great story tho bro ✊
I get it, no wonder it had such an effect on you. I always find my peace up in the mountains
When I was a kid, I was dreaming of traveling the world in a plane. My dad's dream was to become a pilot. Today, I'm doing my commercial pilot licence to make money out of my passion. My dad passed in january 2024, just before getting my private pilot licence and being able to bring my dad in a plane for a ride. It touched me in the core of my heart that you were able to live this wonderful dream with your dad. I hope I had more time with him but everytime I'm in the sky, I feel closer to him. I loved your videos since the beginning and would love to meet you guys. With love, Lauranne from Quebec xox
OMG, my first (and yet only) time in EGypt was in summer 2022. I never imagined, that I would cry like a child over a video about Egypt, it was full with joy and inspiration. I think I should go back too. Maybe next year... Thank you for sharing this gem with us.
I have never commented on a youtube video before but this was beautiful and brought me to tears as many of your videos do. The part about reconnecting with your inner child immediately made me think about how literally my first dream ever was to go to Egypt. My dad used to talk about Egypt and pyramids and how we would visit it one day. I understood that in a very literal sense, was very excited and started packing immediately for Egypt as I thought that meant that we would visit it very soon. My packed things sat in my room for a few months before I realized that we are not going there anytime soon and I was very disappointed. Im not sure how old I was, maybe 5 or younger, I'm 22 now and would still love to travel to Egypt and see the pyramids one day. I also used to be insanely afraid of heights. But, I worked on scaffolding and the first day was SCARY. I thought I couldn't do it. But on the third day i miraculously got better dealing with that fear as i was constantly going up and down the scaffolding and realized being that afraid of heights was irrational and i linked that to some other problems in my life like anxiety and that it could also be irrational sometimes, even though i'm still very much anxious but I'm trying to get better with that, especially in the last few months. Skydiving over the pyramids would be a HUGE challenge for me because it still seems scary because there is no structure supporting you like scaffolding. But i feel like it would make me step out of my comfort zone even more and it would be an amazing experience.
Dear Omar, I've let down my dad on multiple occasions. 😢 despite my flaws, my dad has been unconditional in both his love and support. It's because of my dad that my life is now absolutely beautiful bro. You and the team have been an inspiration for me throughout deep depression and saved me from chucking in the towel, I mean permanently! No joke. I don't need prizes, I only wish to say thankyou and in the native words of new zealand, " kia kaha" stay strong! You save more than you know throughout this beautiful world 🌎 love you Amar. And thankyou!😢
1998 visiting Egypt and to climb I still 100% remember (was 13yo); can't imagine how amazing it would've been to fly over!!! Unfortunate that there are now so many regulations/crowds/scammers that I will never go back.
I wish I could do this with my dad, but he has gone to rest (January 2023). I have learned from this video that there are loads of things to try with your parents which you never will know will be the most memorable day of their life. I wish I could do this for my mum, who misses her partner daily. I am Nigerian even though I am currently in the United States of America, I would love you to explore the wonderful memories that Nigeria and her citizens can add to the @Yes Theory.
The skydiving part is soo emotional, am happy for your Ammar, Ammar's Dad, and the Yes Theory Family.
My very first dream that I remember was to see the 7 ancient wonders of the world. I vividly remember my first visit to a museum with my mother and sister. We saw ancient statues and paintings, and when the guide explained the meaning and history behind all these things, I was fascinated. Then we came to a large room with 7 glass containers. Inside were models of what I think are the greatest architectural achievements in human history. I was so blown away by the history and meaning behind them.
As you can imagine, I was quite shocked when my mother told me that almost all of them were destroyed, except for the Great Pyramids of Giza.
My mother said to me that she would take my sister and me to Egypt as soon as I grew up. Unfortunately, she died before we could realize our dream.
To this day, it is one of my life goals and I work hard every day to achieve it one day. I want to take my sister with me.
Until I saw this video, I haven’t understood this about myself, but my first dream since I was a little girl was to have an older brother - someone that could encourage and lead by example, who could tell me that it’s okay to make mistakes, that life is journey of just trying and seeing where it leads you. I guess this is why my closest male friends (brothers!) were like guides, who taught me how to show up for myself, be brave, and trust in my voice and my dreams. Still learning, always. And I owe so much to my friends. And to you, YesTheory, for sharing your brotherly nature with all of us! Thank you 🙏🏽💫 so profound.
Ammar, I consider myself lucky to have been an early subscriber of you guys. I have seen every single video and have followed you through this zig zag of a journey you've had. I'm watching this after reading Talk to Strangers. I'm glad I did. This made me reflect on the beautifully unravelled relationship you had with your father. My favorite part was when your dad was telling everyone how you never give up, how you achieve every dream. Even if it takes 10 years. Well this took 7, and you truly did not give up. It filled my soul with happiness after watching this video. Thank you. Congrats to you and your dad.
oh ps. and not that it even matters or you'll read this, but my first dream I had as a kid was see the northern lights.
One of my very first dreams since I was a child has been to visit each of the seven wonders of the world! Seeing the pyramids from above must be absolutely breathtaking!
Agreed!
I got physical chills seeing the inside of that museum. How beautiful.
I wish I could answer the question. I am still trying to figure out my dreams as a 25 year old.
Edit: After finishing the video, I had chills for nearly the entire video.
My first dream as a kid was to become a pro at skateboarding😂 Picked up board at the age of 5, and fell in love. Although that never happened, getting on my longboard 23 years later seems to keep that child going. Love you guys so much, what an incredible video. Made a grown man shed a tear…or few. Keep doing what you guys are doing! Love the YES fammm!!
I've never felt anything remarkably close to how I felt while watching this. Had tears in my eyes as Ammar said "I have dreamt of this since I was a kid" Truly such an inspiration.
Ammar! I’ve said it before, but once again, you are an amazing guy! I can’t imagine how good it would feel to have you as a son, brother, friend or anything else. On top of that, you and everyone else on Yes Theory and Seek Discomfort deserve props for the content that you guys have produced over the years. I’ve been a viewer and fan for a long time. During my high school years, you guys were one of my sources of fueling and achieving my childhood dream!
My childhood dream has always been to see more and more things. From a young age, I’ve always been fascinated by all types of “useless” facts. Since my mom and dad were and still are the biggest help in finding these useless facts, I am very thankful for them providing me with such an amazing upbringing. As a young kid, I wanted to know a lot about the different places we visited as a family, whether it was 10 minutes or 12 hours away. During my childhood, we would spend our holidays driving through different countries in Western Europe with our caravan on the trailer hitch. This grew my love for travelling and exploring different countries, cultures and languages. The love of learning languages came to a hold during high school, when I felt overwhelmed by the pressure and the way of learning the language. I am very blessed by the high level of education in the Netherlands and by learning six languages before turning 18. While some of my language knowledge faded away, my love for travelling has not. With my friends (who luckily also like exploring new places), I have explored some countries, but I am far from satisfied! During my university studies, I got the chance to live and study in Kazakhstan for half a year. These months were some of the bests of my life, where I got to know myself, but also so many great other people. This also gave me the chance to really indulge myself in the Kazakh culture and learn a new language. After finishing my bachelor’s degree, I took my first trip to Africa with some friends. A few days into the road trip around Namibia I got the message that my dad was in a bad car accident, almost killing him. Luckily, he survived, but it made me realise that life can be much shorter than we expect. This experience taught me to make sure to spend as much time as possible with my loved ones. At the same time, like Avicii said: “one day you’ll leave this world behind, so live a life you will remember.”
Beautiful. My parents were much the same. Thanks for sharing ❤
This is everything! Alhamdulilah. Ammar, I have followed you and this team for years now. I have prayed to God to find friends like you all are to each other. I am still looking but I am hopeful. This channel makes me hopeful about humanity. I hope to meet you guys one day. So much to say to you all.
My first dream ever since I can remember my life was to become a medical doctor. I finally became one last July. After many years of struggles. Alhamdulilah. I have many more dreams to achieve. The ones I don't even know yet and the one that I still can't believe I can achieve.
You are an inspiration! Thank you for all the stories in all these years. I laughed with you, cried with you, travelled the world and managed to conquer some of my fears.
I thought Thomas’ dream with Hobbiton would make me cry the most, but no, this is it.
One of my first dreams was to write a book. To tell the stories from my heart. I even tried it once, as a kid, with a fairytale and all i remember is people laughing.
But I’ll try again. Because some dreams are worth pursuing for the pure joy you feel in your heart.
Words are inadequate to express how i felt watching this video. The bond you share with your Father Ammar bought tears to my eyes as i jogged my memory of me and my father from years ago. He is no longer with us but i am absolutely certain he is wishing us all well from above. Thank you my friend for this amazing video it nothing short of breathtaking but most importantly one that bought back memories of my childhood with my Father and i thank you from the bottom of my heat for that. All of you guys are LEGENDS!! God bless my friend.
Watching this video had me in complete tears from start to finish. Remembering years ago when you all visited Egypt, to watching Ammar continuously elevate the bar in skydiving, to now seeing him do both things simultaneously, seriously brought me so much joy.
As for my dream, I’ve always wanted to go up high, beyond the clouds and into space. Every new place I’d go to as a kid, my first instinct at night would be to look up at the sky and see if there were more stars there versus back home. I’m still taking baby steps towards that goal of reaching space, but skydiving in Egypt would put me a few steps closer in more ways than one! Thanks for everything you guys do, and the message you stand for of seeking discomfort!
Nothing like a Yes Theory video to get me absolute bricked to the max on this fine Sunday afternoon!
constipated?
Ayo????? 🤨
HUH
@@clash3583 I'm not sure either man, I just let it happen.
what?
The first dream I ever had as a kid was, that I would be able to inspire people around the world to love each other. I saw my mother go through cancer and sadly she passed away in 2017. I told her when I was young and she said that she believed I would meet many people in life who would bring me success in bringing like-minded people together. Remembering that made my understanding of that same dream even stronger. I would like to show people all around the world how we can achieve such an incredible dream by giving as much love to every person we meet, no matter how different we view things. This was a beautiful video and as always I thank all of you for sharing such an amazing moment. Brave and kind-hearted people like you will be the change many seek.
When I was a kid, I was a great athlete and so I always dreamed of playing of playing professional baseball. I played all the way up until college, but being a smaller dude and continuously getting injured cut that pretty short. Over time, though, I’ve grown and matured and realized that you can’t just dream. You’ve got to take action and build to reach your goals. Today, I’ve got a new dream of being the best daddy, best husband, and best LEO I can be. Working hard to fulfill all of them.
Congrats on your accomplishments, Ammar. Really beautiful to see.
This put a tear in my eye (and that usually NEVER happens!!) So wonderful to get to follow you along your journey and watch you accomplish your dream, Ammar! It's been a true joy all these years! ❤💛
The first dream I had was to fly like Peter Pan and Superman - being free from the ground and soaring through the skies 🤩 I've always thought the closest I could get would be either a wingsuit, a jetpack, or going to space. And as crazy as the last one seems, it's definitely not escaping my bucket list!!!
The first dream I ever had as a kid started when my father bought an old camcorder to document our family life. He showed me (6 years old) how to film stop-motion films on it, not knowing he had startet a spark, a love for filmmaking, inside of his son. Fast-forward many years and a difficult path, I graduated from film school, hamdulillah. I am so thankful to him that he always supported me to achieve my dreams. He is definitely my hero.
Tears of joy. I couldn't help but smile and cry throughout the whole video. What you have done is something so special that no amount of words can express how much gratitude I have for being a part of this community. Thank you for this. My childhood dream was always to give back to those less fortunate in Iraq. My parents having been immigrants to Australia and having grown up here, I always dreamed of going to my family's home and helping those in need. Thankfully for my 25th birthday in October, I will be visiting family in Iraq and volunteering with a Church orphanage. Without you guys and the inspiration and push you gave me I wouldn't have had the courage to fulfill that. Truly love your work and hopefully one day our paths cross. Love you guys and I truly am proud of you :) Sarah
I think this is the pinnacle of this channel. The emotions, the story behind, the journey. It felt incredible.
I'm use to cry on your videos but this time was special because my childhood dream was too see the pyramids. And it was also my dad's dream that, unfortunately, passed away almost 5 years ago.
After his death I started to think about life and its meaning (I was just graduated from university and started a classic 9-6 office job) and that bring me to your channel and it was very very ispirational. I started to travel, to connect with people, I aborted prejudice and tried to give sense to each moment.
But sometimes I got lost.
Fortunately, the last Dicember, on the anniversary of his death I could achieve my dream, our dream.
And now I saw you doing skydiving with your dad over the pyramids. I felt like it is a sign from the sky, like my dad saying "I saw you, good job. Keep going".
I couldn't quit my job or persue my career dream (I would love to be a video game designer) but I created a community where I organized events with strangers and this is very fullfilling.
I thank you from the very bottom of my soul! Thank you very much.
I remember so vividly my first childhood dream was to touch the ocean floor. I seem to have forgotten the inspiration but the feeling of yearning is so vivid. Something seems so tranquil about the sea. Nobody can judge you underwater, nobody can rush you underwater, and you're just alone with yourself and/or people you trust. And this innate thing in me tells me that if I were to listen to the ocean so far below, I would somehow be hearing all of it. All of earths beauty just humming through every current.
My dream as a child was to be able to do everything possible in the ocean with my father. The memories I have with him jet skiing will forever live on with me.
Unfortunately at the young age of 7 I lost my dad due to him taking his own life.
But now I live on with his legacy by surfing waves anytime I get a chance and every time I’m in the ocean it reminds me of him and how precious this life is.
I have ALWAYS wanted to sky dive, this video has inspired me in ways I can’t describe.
The yes fam has changed my life I am forever grateful for finding this channel.
Thank you for all you guys do 💙💙💙💙💙💙
My biggest dream as a child was to fly as far as the horizon stretches, to touch the ocean floor as deeply as I can sense the power of the water crashing against the shore.
I dreamt of hills blanketed in the freshest grass, creating a panoramic view that left me feeling both serene and ecstatic at once.
As I dreamt, I found myself gazing at the stars, feeling that by reaching at them everything is possible. The moon instilled a sense of reverberation and peace and the sun filled my heart with passion and joy to be alive.
When I was young, my greatest dream was that these endless possibilities would never cease to exist. My biggest fear was never finding a place where such wonders actually still do exist. Thank you for showing me this beautiful world you live in, and thank you for sharing those incredible experiences. I am deeply moved by your journey. Your videos bring light back into the darkness that lays upon these dreams of mine. I'm touched and moved in places of my subconscious that I haven't been in for a while. Being the same age and seeing you as a full fledged life that puts me in awe makes me want to pursue the greatest version of myself. You are not just a creator - you create meaning. You made me realize how the dreams I never had where always deep inside and the pursuit of those is the only thing that creates meaning to me. I am looking forward to see your journey continuing ever more. All the love to you guys.
Good gosh this video was the most amazing tribute to your homeland and a testament to your love for your roots. What a beautiful thing, im in awe. Absolute awe.
My childhood dream as a kid was to visit Greece. I wanted to see with my own eyes all the stories i grew up hearing, and all the movies i grew up watching. I wanted to do more than just hear about the history, i wanted to be a part of it. Last summer I finally visited the country after 8 years of waiting. And i saw myself in your reactions. I think ive found a new dream, help a girl out.
It's truly a full circle. Seeing your dream coming true, especially alongside your dad, makes us viewers all so happy. I actually cried as I watch your vid. Your story has inspired us a lot, Ammar!! The Yes Theory boys should be proud of what they've been doing for their communities for the past 10 years!
