listen I worship the ground Sir pTerry Pratchett (rip) walked on, but if I ever turned around and he was just right there, I'd be just like poor Averie. I hope they were able to spend time after the interview in private so that Averie could get some time to really enjoy meeting Laurie.
Agreed! You can tell that her folks did not have pity on her and raised her to be no different than anyone with two whole legs. Thats the way to do it. If a child is raised being told they are disabled they will always feel limited. if they are raised to think they are no different than anyone else, the sky is the limit.
I don't do any types of sports. I am a 64 year old, and out of shape ol man. I find this angle a great inspiration. You can see it in her eyes. God Bless, and may she make it to the Olympics, and succeed.
This absolutely beautiful child deserves gold in the Olympics. She has turned a disability into an ability and she has humility and grace as well. I wish her every success for her future. ❤xx with love from Australia 🇦🇺
Averie does NOT deserve the gold in the Olympics merely because she can compete with an artificial leg. The gold goes t the best gymnast in the competition, NOT the one with the best story.
Hello, you may already know of this story about a young lady from 2017-2018. She is a flautist in her High School Band. In her senior year she became the section leader of flutes. Her name is Hitomi Kanamaru or Kanemaru. There are hundreds of videos of her band on the UA-cam and her story is on the www too. She attended Kyoto Tachibana (a wild Mandarin type of orange tree) Senior High School Brass Band Club during the years of 2015-2018. Here are the titles of three videos that she is prominent in.

What a beautiful, talented and sweet young lady!! I wish her the very best in her pursuit of that gold medal!! I am sure Lauren Hernandez has a new best friend, I hope they stay in contact with each other and they continue to inspire each other and so many others!
Life threw her a curve but she didn’t strike out she knocked it clean out of the park !! Young lady your beyond special you are simply amazing and I have a feeling nothing is going to slow you down or stop you from reaching your goals in life !!
This is awesome,love this strong willed young girl.She is already a champion and I believe she will accomplish everything she wants to do and inspire many.
This little baby girl is my hero. How Good is she?!? This incredible human being came out on that stage hiding her medal, as humble as a day is long. First time she stops covering them with her hands is to hug her idol. Massive, Enormous, Gigantic young lady.
Wow! Out of the mouth of a babe, so matured . I am inspired by her attitude,spirit and character. Many successes in your journey. Bless you. Her story made me cry.
the mom and dad must be the proudest parents in the world knowing there daughter not letting the loss of her leg not stopping her from doing what she loves Averie i will say this honey i am 44 no kids yet BUT if i ever have a daughter i hope she be just like you putting her dreams first and doing what she would love to do because not only you are doing what your dream is but you are showing other children all around the world younger and older that you that because you have a disability should not let it stop you from doing your dream you have full support from Australia honey and hope one day we see you at the Olympics go get that gold medal honey you deserve it
Lauren Hernandez was genuinely kind to this young lady. That will inspire her to continue to be great and work toward success in every facet of her life.
She’s such a beautiful girl & so humble & grown up. Her getting to see her idol is fantastic.She’s going to go a long way it life with her postive attitude.Brought tears to my eyes when Avery looked up & said that’s so sweet ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Wonderful story of courage & determination in the face of adversity, she truly is an amazing young lady who you would be so proud to say was your daughter, well done Averie x
I have a paralyzed arm and leg. I can walk. But I have pain. I have seizures that prevent me from doing things. Like working and driving. But this girl is a blessing
This young lady has a beautiful soul, the heart of a lion in the will of a warrior! And an attitude that the world really needs right now she’s a breath of fresh air and I wish her nothing but the best of success and there’s no doubt in my mind that this young lady will achieve everything she wants to… Thanks for motivating a broken old man.
This girl inspires on a whole different level! Ever imagined what it means to feel the position of your body with a body part that can’t feel? Her performance and demeanor is off the charts. She WILL become an Olympic Champion!
Averyis already s winner and an inspiration to all to set your goals and go for them! Don't ever let anyone define who you are because you certainly know who you are. You live life head on! GOD BLESS YOU FOR BEING WHO YOU ARE. YOU NOT ONLY PUT A SMILE ON GOD'S FACE, BUT ALL OF US WHO WERE BLESSED TO SEE THIS AND THOSE WHOM YOU WILL CONTINUE TO BLESS WHEN MEETING THEM THROUGHOUT LIFE!
This is awesome i was in the medical equipment industry for 20 years and am a veteran so I’ve dealt with many amputees over the years and I find this truly awesome and one of my good friends is a Usmc amputee veteran that was in the Paralympic actually 2 of my friends over the years have been in the paralympics , they are my real hero’s and although I don’t actually know her other than what I just saw in this video I truly respect her and what she has accomplished and her attitude
She is. I told my boys.. who complain about not being able to do something.. about Averie. I told them I don't want to hear their excuses. If this young woman can be an amazing gymnast, you boys can accomplish everything you set your mind to!
Ms. Averie same as my sister name Ms. Avery both are CHAMPIONS all around 🙏🗣️🔊🤲🇺🇸🚨🥰🤩🥳🫵👁️👁️👑👑💼💼 Thank You 🙏 both❤🕶️🕶️💐💐❤🎉 and Thank You Mr. Steve Harvey, you are the greatest person human being for your platforms!
What a sweet kid! She'd be an inspiration regardless of using a prosthetic. There's something she wanted to do, so she found a way to do it. That in and of itself is inspiring :)
God bless you little angel 😍. You’re an inspiration and roll model to not only kids but 63 yr old women like me. Love and blessings to you and your family. You’re only going up from here 🙏🏾❤️
I'd be willing to bet that Avery makes it to the Olympics, and gets a gold. She's got just the right mentality for it. Her mindset is just where it needs to be!
@@christophertmunro4503 A classic example of a religious bigot ignoring root cause. Incidentally, do you honestly think using ALL CAPS emphasis your argument? So sad.
@@christophertmunro4503 I call you “a religious bigot ignoring root cause.” And the best you can do is call me “Mr. Grammar Police”. You really do need to closely examine your belief system if you can’t defend being called a bigot.
Absolute talent. What she does on the balance beam is amazing. Having no feeling in that foot makes her accomplishment even more outstanding. I can barely balance with 2 good feet :)
She’s a tough kid. She will go far in life with whatever she does. Hope to see her in the Olympics some day! She’s got a champion’s spirit for sure. 🩷 Keep going Averie!! We are rooting for you!!
I hope she makes the Olympics short term and achieves the awesome goal of being a physical therapist long term. Two perfect places for her. You go girl!
"You can't break this leg. Well, you can, but it won't hurt as bad." That's making lemonade, for sure.
I'd say she passed lemonade and went straight to lemon lollipops. Absolutely amazing
Can break that leg and her real 1 at the same time. As a amputee I have done both when I was a kid
I love that
She was so young that was the plus
I laughed and teared up at that at the same time.
Avery was frozen in her tracks at her idol, but I’m willing to bet she went home and hasn’t shut up about this since it happened! ❤😂
listen I worship the ground Sir pTerry Pratchett (rip) walked on, but if I ever turned around and he was just right there, I'd be just like poor Averie. I hope they were able to spend time after the interview in private so that Averie could get some time to really enjoy meeting Laurie.
She's SO smart and mature for her age. Certainly was raised right. 👏🙂
Agreed! You can tell that her folks did not have pity on her and raised her to be no different than anyone with two whole legs. Thats the way to do it.

Well whoever performs the best deserves the gold, but she definitely is a champion for soldiering through losing a leg and kicking ass.
This is fantastic. She is a beautiful person 🎉.
Averie does NOT deserve the gold in the Olympics merely because she can compete with an artificial leg. The gold goes t the best gymnast in the competition, NOT the one with the best story.
@@cathynewyork7918 Yes, I'm well aware of all that. I was commenting on her courage, not suggesting that judges give her a gold medal to her unfairly.
This world and country needs more stories like this rather than what the media wants to push.
THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH STEVE HARVEY.

" Hey! "
I would love to live long enough to see that young lady compete in the Olympic Games. WORD LIFE!!!
She is inspiring.. She has already got the biggest medal of all..
Would wide gold medal for showing us never to give up..❤
Well said I love her spirit and humility for a full life.❤😊
She is an inspiration to the young generation
she was a baby when she lost her leg, and kids adapt far better than adults. also was sweet of you to have her on and also her idol.
At the age of two, she wasn't really a baby, but chances are she doesn't even remember what it's like to walk with two real legs.
She is so overwhelmed
Bless her
Amazing young lady. May she see the Olympics sooner than later and shine like a champion she is.
That girl is wise beyond her years.
As someone who is't particularly a fan of gymnastics, but seeing someone doing what's difficult WITHOUT a handicap is just amazing.
She is very brave, first meeting her hero then performing in front of her her, so much pressure but she nailed it! Wonderful! 😃
Way to go girl!!! From my home state of Oklahoma!!! So proud of how she's turned her disability into an amazing skill with gymnastics!!!
Shaking like a leaf in a storm, and still she nails a balance routine I couldn't do if my life depended on it. What a legend!
What a beautiful, talented and sweet young lady!! I wish her the very best in her pursuit of that gold medal!! I am sure Lauren Hernandez has a new best friend, I hope they stay in contact with each other and they continue to inspire each other and so many others!
Very inspiring young woman and athlete. Steve Harvey…just the most genuine, sweetest person. He was made to interview youth.
No, Steve Harvey is loud and annoying - but this is a sweet story about the little gymnast with an artificial leg.
I love Steve's positive messages. So many resonate with me. Thank you Mr. Harvey.
"The mindset of a champion." I like that inspiring concept.
This little girl is a true inspiration
I have a prosthetic left leg. Im 61...this wonderful, beautiful soul has inspired me. Much love..❤
she is already a winner to me... an Olympic Gold medalist....❤❤❤❤
She'll be in the Olympics one day. And it'll be COOL!!!
She would dominate in special Olympics, but she doesn't consider herself disabled, so competes against to non-disabled athletes.
She inspires this 64 y.o. man w a prosthetic left foot!
Beautiful girl she is a inspiration to other handicap kids she is proof if you make up your can do it ❤❤ love her
Life threw her a curve but she didn’t strike out she knocked it clean out of the park !! Young lady your beyond special you are simply amazing and I have a feeling nothing is going to slow you down or stop you from reaching your goals in life !!

Keep, IT, Going, Avery.
2:12 "I really don't have a disadvantage," she says. That mindset is what makes her sensational!
You are Living Proof, that you can do anything you put your mind too.
Best wishes to you Averie...thanks Steve
What an epic and brave young girl. I can’t do that with two good legs. Hope she achieves everything she wants
i am not crying.. you are..
I love how matter-of-fact she is - an old soul in a young girl's body! Love her! And Lauri Hernandez is SUCH a sweetheart! Love her too!
I'd be willing to bet that Avery makes it to the Olympics, and gets a gold. She's got just the right mentality for it. Her mindset is just where it needs to be!
If this didn’t just bring me to absolute tears…of pure joy and pride and inspiration…wow. 💜
What a seriously phenomenal young lady, I will definitely see her at the Olympics one day!🧡💜🧡💜
