i just saw a life sized one displayed at the Geek Store window a couple of days ago. Im not shitting you. I was saying "holy cow, he f*kin did it". Starts about 10k tho.
As entertaining a speech as this is, I strongly recommend everyone watch it for style points. Forget the speech, observe Nick's skills and instincts as a speaker. His face is open, his delivery is measured and very confident. This is one of the best non-political public speakers I have ever seen.
thats how speaches should be, nothing like all congratulations and do your best shit... listen to that man! though probably 90% of us wont follow his advices...
Oh boy I think he is on the road for a huge disappointment. As a mechanical engineer to another I hate to tell him that we do not build Iron Man suits and most of us don't work on fancy projects just solve everyday problems huh...
What strikes me is his professionalism. His delivery was perfect! Each of his points was clearly articulated, he had well-timed pauses, and even the section of his speech with the music was so well-memorized that he hit the script at the proper times to create impact with the music's highlights, building the audience's confidence in his testimonial. Excellent example of "it's not what you say, but how you say it."
Being the "disappointment" of my family for all my life, and being in and out of different foster families, no one has really understood my dream, and neither do I. I didn't know what university I even wanted to go to, BUT NOW I KNOW, BECAUSE I SHALL DELIVER A BAD-ASS SPEECH, AND INVENT SHIT THAT WILL BLOW PEOPLES MINDS AT GEORGIA TECH. THANK YOU, NICOLAS SELBY. THANK YOU.
God, I am so stoked for when you guys graduate in 2017 and come out to the workplace. You're going to have to start where all of us did at the bottom, but your minds are gold. I'll be waiting At the starting line when you hit the ground running...
This is the best speech ever it will motivate you to be the best you can be and offer the world something special (ask not what the world can offer you rather ask what you can offer the world)
I was that person. Wanting to do the impossible. I got in one of the best polymer engineering schools and was heading to my dream. What I missed is that I was running myself through a factory and running hard as I could. Until, my health deteriorated and I almost died. I didn't realize I had soo many underlying medical difficulties and syndromes. I now have taken a step back and realized I forgot my passion. How can I achieve my dreams if I'm dead? Stop, learn, enjoy your new experience, and NEVER rush yourself.....because you will not learn and be inspired because you will be in the ER most of the time. I will change the world, but when my time comes. I will do the impossible when it is my time and I will live to see it. That is my knowledge to all freshman. Don't pile over max hours taking classes during breakfast lunch and summer just because you want a phd at 25. I realized I have taken myself outside of this world so much for a good resume that I almost died. Knowledge is not just sitting in class, but experiences. I might not become world famous but I will have made a difference. To The Top.
Wow, rock star. Gotta say, I'm going to be on the lookout for a flying suit of armor over the Georgia Tech neck 'o the woods in the near future. Chances are, Nick will be on his way to his Gwyneth Paltrow-like girlfriend's house. Outstanding job, Nick.
Oh my goodness. This is what passion is. Lenard and Sheldon have nothing on this guy. Well done, well done indeed! Take the 7 minutes, you will enjoy it, you will laugh and you will be inspired!! God's speed, Nick
What rocks: being the guy that conceives of and delivers a speech like this.
What sucks: being the poor bastard that has to speak after him.
It was the provost, LOL!
"Meh, this is boring"
"I AM GOING TO BUILD THE IRON MAN SUIT!"
"I'm listening..."
Yep
i wonder if he finished his iron man suit

The helmet is $300.00
Honey he will probably become Iron man with his sass and charisma
He the irl tony stark
Yes. He has filed for patent. After that it will be available for sale on Amazon, Walmart. It has female version too.
There was no way that the Sign Language interpreter was able to put enough emphasis in her signs to fully indicate the power behind that lol
He was like: 🖕👁️👄👁️🖕
Yo how has 7 years been?
@@meechieflow_ I mean shit, you know.
@@LutherTraining How old are you now?
@@yoyoman_blue6485 29 my good man. Graduated college, opened a business, made that $ on some Gamestonk. Been a hell of a ride.
Holy cow, I thought he was gonna summon the power of Thor from the sky right at the end. LOL
OzzyTheGiant whoever holds this hammer, should he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor
YOU'RE FORGETTING HE IS AT GEORGIA TECH, HE CAN DO THAT!!!!

I noticed that as I was watching as well
yes, indeed
Pretty damn good. Probably from all that practice summoning his quick wit wit and extreme volume whilst talking smack in cod lobbies
@@chevy66driver only a few years late
I was gonna say that. Something about him is warm like an innocent kid from the 80s. This kid for president.
"You are never stagnant. You are always growing and maturing... or falling behind." - Nick Selby everyone, amazing quote.
That was the most epic speech in history.
I went to High school with this guy. He did speech and debate at one of the best S and D programs in the country. That's why this was so awesome.
really thats so cool
He will build the iron man suit.
he literally waits for the laughs like a comedian
thats how speaches should be, nothing like all congratulations and do your best shit... listen to that man! though probably 90% of us wont follow his advices...
Been seven years how’s time done you hope you’re well
Motivational talk for engineers xD
... man i need to get a life..
Have you obtained a life yet?

I wish I had the balls this guy has.
Nick Partain but you are gay
he should of just dropped the mic at the end and walked off like a badass
I wish all speeches can be like this.
This guy is the living definition of "like a boss"
I was really hoping for him to say “I AM IRON MAN” at the end lolll
Should’ve said “I AM IRON MAN” and then had the song by Black Sabbath start playing. Would’ve been badass overload
or say I AM ROBERT DOWNEY JUNIOR! would be even funnier
The only way he could top this is if he had flown out of the window..
I guess I'm just gonna say it since no one else will. Nick is the Shia Lebouf of 2013.
Congratulations to him! He graduated this year. Hope he's doing well. As a mechanical engineering student, I love his speech.
Oh boy I think he is on the road for a huge disappointment. As a mechanical engineer to another I hate to tell him that we do not build Iron Man suits and most of us don't work on fancy projects just solve everyday problems huh...
Imagine him having a fight with Shia laBeauf
im deAD
Am I the only one pissed of at all of these kids in the audience not appreciating how badass this guy actually is
The theme music is Also Sprach Zarathustra by Richard Strauss (aka the 2001 space odyssey theme song) if anyone was wondering :)
I thank you
+KettiexD thank you very much
The Sunrise Movement.

His choice of music is incredible.

I've never been so proud of a complete stranger in my life
I would really hate to have to be the person that followed that speech. That was awesome!!
At the end he just looks around like "shit did I just do that" nice!
I thought Harry Potter goes to Hogwart and not Georgia Tech.
i spent forever finding this clip because i saw the reference in "youtube rewind 2013"
Same. I kept thinking it was something to do with goats.
SAME SAME SAME
At the end of UA-cam Rewind it has a list of everyone seen in the video
i searched up "speech about iron man suit" cause i heard about a guy building the iron man suit in a speech and it was like the first result
How times have changed...
Epic.
I never even knew of this existing until UA-cam Rewind 2013.
same
same here
Same
how many kids wish they would of studied at Georgia Tech **Raises Hand**
nahh id much ather be a Tiger
gosh... I'd hate to be the person to follow that
Imagine the next person to speak, there is no way he can top that!
2021 HERE JUST CAME FROM TIKTOK THIS IS F****NG AWESOME!!🤘🤘🤘💪🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥

Amen to this entire video

I can't believe that he memorized that 7 min speech
He's a badass
That was amazing....
That was awesome
My teacher showed us this for our health presentation and we should be just like him when we present
this guy is my hero. im going to watch this before starting every year of any school year.
Is this the guy in UA-cam Rewind 2013 who's like "DO YOU WANT TO CHANGE THE WORLD? YOU ARE A GOAT! YOU CAN DO IT!"
x3 "YOU WANNA CHANGE THE WORLD! YOUR A GOAT!! YOU CAN DOOO THAT!" x3 epic lol
Thanks to his speech i have 23 cars, own 5 resteraunts, 6 houses, and oh ya i changed the world.
He is the one. The hero who will save us all.
Few words can express what I am feeling right now after hearing this speech.
So inspirational
My teacher actually showed this to the class and everyone, all at once, stood up and started clapping for this amazing man.
Badass, awesome, inspiring and all around EPIC are the only words I could use to describe this video
i still come back to this video what an amazing speaker
I call that BADASS. Nice job, man.
His legend still lives on today
This man can bring the world together with a speach
Excellent delivery!
Who's here from tiktok?
Me😂
and i searched "school speech i am ironman"
Everyone was sitting there like “what in the hell did I just witness”
I saluted and a single tear came from my eye.
This man has won the game.
I just love that this was on UA-cam Rewind 2013!!

My brother is a genius. He too goes to Georgia Tech

CulusMagnus Congratulations! You made the right choice!
Andy, thanks for sharing. Truly epic! '79
What an amazing young man. We will be hearing from him
I AM GOING TO BUILD THE IRONMAN SUIT
This guy,right up there?
He was drowning in sophomore pink after that.
What's sophomore pink? ..does you mean like alcohol or a drug??
Jibster310 Sophomore females private areas. How could that possibly meant drugs?
Zadentai no no i am pretty sure he meant PINK as in Victoria secret pink
A HattoriJunko Or the singer
pretty sure he meant vagina
Wow Tyler! What you said totally affects my life in a positive way! I totally cared that your brother goes there!
God, I am so stoked for when you guys graduate in 2017 and come out to the workplace. You're going to have to start where all of us did at the bottom, but your minds are gold. I'll be waiting At the starting line when you hit the ground running...
Like a boss
I AM GOING TO BUILD THE IRON MAN SUIT
This is the most fantastic speech I have ever heard
One of the best speeches I have ever heard. EPIC!!!
Freaking awesome! I am transferring to Georgia tech
They're all just like "wait whaaaa???"
love this guy, LEGEND. UK thanks this crazy LEGEND
This is the best speech ever it will motivate you to be the best you can be and offer the world something special (ask not what the world can offer you rather ask what you can offer the world)
So did he finish the suit I needa know it’s been seven years ...
what a fucking legend
Awesome Speech !! ( from Gilbert AZ)
I'll watch this for inspiration in my time of need.
if you want to build the tardis your at georgia tech you can do that!
I wish there was a video of the sign language interpreter trying to keep up with that.
THIS WAS SO AWESOME!!!!!
saw this on the news in canada... really good speech. loved every minute, it built perfectly, and that's tough to do.
bad. ass. SERIOUSLY BADASS!!!
Rewind UA-cam Style: 2013!!!
from now on this is what i will watch every time i need motivation
He probably may not have made the Iron Man suit but at least he encouraged somebody to make it happen
I would not want to go after that dude.
You are not the only one.
I see that we have 128 dislikes from the University (sic) of Georgia.
That was one of the awesomest things I have ever seen.
I was that person. Wanting to do the impossible. I got in one of the best polymer engineering schools and was heading to my dream.

I will change the world, but when my time comes. I will do the impossible when it is my time and I will live to see it. That is my knowledge to all freshman. Don't pile over max hours taking classes during breakfast lunch and summer just because you want a phd at 25.

Sucks to be the Vice President who had to go up after nick
Wow, rock star. Gotta say, I'm going to be on the lookout for a flying suit of armor over the Georgia Tech neck 'o the woods in the near future. Chances are, Nick will be on his way to his Gwyneth Paltrow-like girlfriend's house.
Outstanding job, Nick.
Wonderful job Nick...from all of us in Canada...BRAVO !! Looking forward to seeing you fly around in your ironman suit..
Well done Nick!
Well that escalated quickly
Back for my daily view
Excellent!!!!!
Oh my goodness. This is what passion is. Lenard and Sheldon have nothing on this guy. Well done, well done indeed! Take the 7 minutes, you will enjoy it, you will laugh and you will be inspired!! God's speed, Nick
