That's what u call a true friend ain't many of those nowadays
I teared up when they both have God the credit. Rarely on these types of shows do people do that. May God continue to bless his and his friends family
Man this is sadly true
You just have to keep looking until you find the right ones
I now man I feel u
Is anim at rite😑🤗😉😏🤪😁
My friend Jimmy Brooks fell out of his tree stand about 10 years ago. He became a paraplegic for the next 8 years, confined to a wheelchair and at the mercy of others. Despite all this Jimmy still hunted with a retrofitted rifle compliments of Buckmaster. He was a warrior! Jimmy Brooks passed away about 2 years ago. He left a legacy of true grit and determination! RIP Jimmy!
Jimmy brooks huh
Damn to jimmy brooks.
@@wabai_879 This has to be Satan, eh?
@@blurbn oh god oh no oh no no no I did not mean it like that I meant it like to jimmy brooks like when you say cheers and delicate it to someone I’m so sorry
@@wabai_879 Damn certainly is not a term of endearment but I'll accept your apology nevertheless! Peace!
My dad fell of a latter truck and I thank god every time i see my dad
🙏🏻🙏🏻
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

yes. E
You guys are lucky to have a dad😖
Hello Craig, my injury is a little more like yours seeing as I fell down a 100 foot cliff face. Thankfully I had two friend's with me at the time of my accident. Now Nathan I can also relate to your fall seeing as after my fall I had to learn to walk, feed myself, go to the bathroom, but those thing's happen after a 3 week coma and a Traumatic Brain Injury. I know that we both went through the same stuff through our Father and our Savior we are both walking and going through life like we did before the accident's. The one major thing that kept me moving forward was that I remembered where I was and I wanted to be back there again. I remember the wheel chair, then the pick up walker, then quad cane, and a few day's latter single point cane. As you probably know that single point cane is left behind more often then it come's with us. Keep on following the lead of our Father and our Savior will never steer you wrong.
Are you ok
I'm so glad your ok
Glad your ok
Kirk, all your injuries and you composed such a beautiful, humble letter. I hope you are doing well.
I was 14 when I fell out of a tree stand broke my tail bone messed my knee up next I go hunting I'm wearing a safety harness

That’s the nicest bond with two grown men I’ve ever seen and I wish I had a friend as good as eddie
Dude goes to my church. Awesome dude
This makes me want to cry. He’s a real trooper and hero. ❤️
Me to
Same vroooo
Same
I know Nathan personally and he really is!
Yes
Harnesses are a must I never get into a stand without
How does a harness work? Is it attached to the tree, itself, or to part of the stand? If the seat of the stand fails, are you just left hanging by your harness?
Always wear a harness.
Go gators
Right
I hunt to
Yes
Yes always one of the most important tree stand protocols
I’m happy he didn’t die
And that kids is why you WEAR YOUR HARNESS
God is Awesome. I believe my Son will walk again soon too 🙏🏽
I bet that was a fun trip to the ground^^ the hunter ride
@@edwardhood3660 why would you say that
Question, what makes you believe in god? Just wondering
@@Ranjeero because you commented, without God we wouldn't be here and without Jesus we are all sins
@@bradenbruce2785 have you ever thought of a more scientific answer to human life?
I cried buckets of tears on this😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Same 😭😭😭😭
I love how he is always thinking abt god
If we have faith. Miracles always happen. Salute all the survivors on these series ❤️
GOD loves us so much❣️
This man should’ve been in the army
Yessssssssiiiiiirrrrr
I’m legit crying right now third year hunting first year to hunt a tree stand I’m going to wear a harness! Just wow what a story
What would the harness have done? The bottom fell out?
Bless you All. Through any difficult times.
My pawpaw fell out of his tree bow hunting and broke his back luckily my dad called him and he didn’t answer so my dad got scared and found him
Omg i know what its like ,is he ok?

Glad he was ok and thank God for his friend being close by

This story reminded me of my fall out of my stand
I keep forgetting the host has a prosthetic. Also these two guys have such a pure friendship, it's really heartwarming.
My friend broke his neck doing that without a harness,he fine but that is why everyone at deer camp where's a harness
Is he doing better @Jr Pancake?
Jr Pancake if your friend broke his neck he is dead bro
@@floydhenry1777 yea if you break yo neck you gone
@@CptPrice-pf8nz ya this was a while ago he fell out of his climber and dragged himself to his four wheeler and drove back to his house where he got medical attention and he had to where a halo for a year
@@floydhenry1777 he can have a small break, like the neck is not snapped
By the comments it sounds like someone needs to redesign tree stands.
Guy: *falls of cliff and dies*
Guys soul: “I WAS LAGGING”
Lol
I want to laugh, but I will go to hell if I do
Not funny you are so rude
@@rickyarber4301 who said my comment had to be funny
@@rickyarber4301 noob
"...it's not about the kill, it's about the experience.." Really? After his painful experience maybe he will have an idea now how the poor animal feels when it gets shot with an arrow
Exactly! That's how animals feel when you hunt them. Just like he make the animals suffer. I don't feel sorry for him neither feel any respect. A hunter crying for pain is just karma he has it coming his way .
God put animals on this earth so that humans and other animals could eat. Hunting for food is a right of life, hunting for sport is what you should have a problem with, which this video doesn’t provide enough context to say these guys are doing🤷♂️😊
Thank you Lord for this heartening event of your great intervention! You made a tragic ending to a gladdening climax!
I find this crazy because he is my intro to business teacher at an alternative school and just now seeing this I realized he was probably the coolest teacher I ever had
The only time when you willing to accept trespasser on your land.
Damn right
Indeed correct
Slugs aren’t trespassers
Talk about a determined individual. Perfect example of anything is possible with God
I was in NC in the Burlington area and remember seeing this on the news and one of my hunting buddies had hear of it aswell. I have fallen 20 ft two times and walk away with small injury but one of two my last fall it got my hip and lower back. After I got over my hurt I told every hunter the safety belts will save your life because after my falls I wore them Everytime I went up. 1st stand fall made a mistake stood up take coat off back off the front of the stand. 2nd time I was invited to a lease that had wooden ladder stand and before I could strap my self the corner broke off due to rotten. Hunting friends be safe and always have your belt on.
Beloved Brother Nathan, I am so thankful to hear your story. More so the Glory you give to God our Father for interceding on your behalf, for giving you the strength, and courage you needed at that moment so you would not give up. For helping you to understand that if you did your part HE, your God would do what you COULD NOT.
See I'm a retired firefighter/EMT. My last fire ended in and explosion that was so big it damage homes more than a 1/4 of a mile away. I was in the center of that explosion. For the Glory of God I am alive to see my three children grown, married and my fourth grand child come into the world. I should have died that day but God protected me. Looking back I see all the ways HE has worked through me. (not my will BUT HIS not my GLORY BUT HIS)
I DO understand how Humbling it is to have to learn to walk all aver again. I had to learn to talk, eat, even potty and bath all over again. I sustained a head injury among other injuries, so I DO understand these things.
I think YOU ARE BRAVE, because....you allowed God to take control instead of fighting for control for yourself. Letting go and giving it to God is where TRUE BRAVERY comes into a persons life.
Thank you for showing the world what a REAL MAN looks like brother🥰
All my heart felt love
May God heap blessing on you and yours and be well pleased with you
Your sister in Christ
Question, what makes you believe in god? Just curious
@@deblawson1575 alright, thank you for the answer
@@Ranjeero My Pleasure I hope it helped, My I ask why your interested??
I'm just glad he is alive
They are so brave 🙏🙏🙏
I’m crying 😭
THIS JUST HAPPENED TO MY NEIGHBOR AND IT BROKE HIS BACK TOO
I fell 22’ back in 2018.. 3 broken ribs, ruptured spleen and my crossbow broke in half.. hurt and had me laid up for about a month.
Now I am terrified to go hunting and I go with my dad and we go in double stand🥺🥺
Me to
It’s not to scare you it’s just a documentary yes it can happen sometimes but it’s not likely to happen so don’t be scared
Me and my grandfather use a double stand for bow and gun and trust me, there safe as long as the straps are tight and you pay attention
Just be cautious
It’ll be fine
Trust me brother double stands are more secure you will be fine
The greatest thing he did was to pray to God and his angels..That crawl was unimaginable..only God gave him the strength to reach his ATV
Outstanding video..prays Jesus.. Nathan live life it to the fullest
And Enjoy your family God-bless..
As a kid I had a sociopath kid next door who would torment me from time time. A few years ago I looked him up, figuring he’d wound up in prison. Turns out his fate was much worse than prison - he fell out of a tree stand 15 years ago, but unlike this guy, he was totally paralyzed and died due to associated complications a couple years ago.
That is so sad
for him & for you.
We just never
know in
what direction
our Life will
take Us.
Be Safe, Take Care.
~ God❤Bless ~
I fell out of a 20 feet tree stand this year and I'm 10 but my dad was on the ground when I fell and that was 3 weeks ago :(
Were u ok?
I waa just lile this guy just not so bad
Well Bambi or his parents I should say was saved that day! Poor Bambi and his parents!
THIS IS DEEP.....and tough
This why my family keeps walkie talkies in our coats or in our pants
Smart lol
I went into a tree stand and didn’t know that the Rachet straps weren’t on and the only thing that held me in the tree stand was the tree that had grown around metal
That is lucky also check ur things when u go out
Thanks be to God for miracles
God is great 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙂
His sweet
kid has such a lovely face and huge eyes!!!
I'm glad you survived. That is a good friend of yours
When he said something about hollow eyes, I teared up man. That's so sad, I hope this man is really okay
Same
Same
That was one hell of a upper body workout
Thank you, Lord
Thank god he was able to walk again 🙏❤️
Glad hes ok and what a good friend
So glad he gives God the glory! Truly it was God who helped this man. Thank you Jesus for always being here for us in our weakest moments. ❤😊
I love how this man fought for his life and how he used all his strength to get himself help I love hiw he did that he is the best man alive he is a brave man
Thx
Nice name u got there to
Bro I have set here and watched this and all I can say is PRAISE GOD FOR WATCHING OVER YOU. I guess I needed this story, I am facing back surgery in a few weeks, they tell me I have severe nerve damage. I am afraid of what may happen. But you have helped me through your testimony. Thank you for sharing your story.
I am in a tree listening to this story.
Friends are like family they feel what you feel ❤
He had to feel it. Because of all those animals he injured !
@@saturahman7510 shut up god put the animals on earth for a reason
That's why you wear a harness folks 🦌
Praise God, you've done another miracle
Praise!
God and Jesus are the best 🙏
God and jesus not real
@@kurmis191 u not real wat a hypocrite God and Jesus r real repent or perish u fool
@@kurmis191 facts
@New Jack City God is real , Jesus is a fairy tale , it's proved beyond doubt.
Always wear a harness kids
God is good he helps in different ways
I was glad to hear you knowledge God in the whole situation 🙏. A lot of people don't knowledge God or His power. They think they did it own their own. Happy your doing good. And those 2 sweet babies are so cute. May God continue blessing you in life.
He did do it on his own. I didn't see god pick him up and carry him out of the forest. Did you?
Congrats on 1 mil
The camera man be like 👁👄👁
He is a definitely a true believer that God is the only One who saved him from that fall...and so am I! true believer!!!
I fell out of my stand one time. Thank goodness it was a ground blind. I didn't get hurt, but I spilled my damned beer all over myself. Never want to do that again.
Amen Hallelujah
I feel so bad, I am so happy that he is ok
Respect 100000000000000000
God bless him
Omg I cryed
My grandpa broke his back during his hunting had to get up and drive his fore wheeler to his house 3 miles away. The drop was 20 feet.
My grandma went cherry picking some years ago with some family friends. She was on a ladder and she fell and broke a bone. She was rushed to the hospital after that. But thank God she’s okay now
That is scary!
Man idk about tree stands anymore. My dad told me how dangerous it could be and i took my hunters ed class. I leaned more about it i been hunting with my dad since I was little. Now i understand the real dangers it can be sometimes
I’m 13 and I wear a safety harness any time I’m above 15 foot in a stand
I'm also 13 I go hunting we have a harness that I normally use but luckily we got like a really sturdy tree stand that we've been using for four years luckily I haven't had any accidents yet anyway and they're all like the edge of the woods because where we live we have deer everywhere so they're on the edge of the woods so I wouldn't really have to crawl anywhere if this happened I'm sorry I'm going to rant
I was incredible I can't believe you survived that
I am crying right know
True surviver
What a champ
Ayyyyyyy I'm in Tennessee baby
I’m crying
I'm letterly crying
Good Eddie :D
Why didn’t the camera man save him smh 🤦♀️
lmao
Pls tell me this is a joke
Hunters are innocent animal nightmares. Hunters are not heroes. Save the animals.
This man should be able to understand now, how much pain he is giving to animals by hunting them. He should feel the pain of the animals in this way. God has given him the right punishment .
Good.
This is why I don't use tree stands
I don’t cry much but this made me sad
I know Nathan personally so I’ve heard this story multiple times and it affects me the same way every time😢
I cryed a little
That is crazy
