He was very loving and my wife and I miss him dearly. He was not able to talk, walk on his own, or interact with others very much. But, we enjoyed him immensely and considered it a privilege to have had him in our home. My heart goes out to the mother and rest of the family for loving and caring for him. My wife and I hope to see our angel again on the other side soon.

I woke up this morning upset with life, stressed about bills and situations that have affected me during this rough time that we all are going through right now and somehow this video was in my feed and God called me to watch this. Im so happy that I did. This made me realize how much I as well as many of us take for granted, and Idk the last time where I genuinely smiled or felt the joy that Andrew showed in this video. It sucks but it tells me that I have a lot of inner work to do because no matter what goes on in life, I'm still here, able-bodied, healthy, and blessed. I pray God blesses Andrew with nothing but pure love, joy, and happiness! 💕🙏🏾

Its immensely difficult for people with Down's to be coordinated and have good balance, let alone dance with agility and flexibility like that. Truly incredible.

[@DVSPDC]

Yeah it's pretty cool. I've always wondered how comes people with down syndrome always look the same?

[@bunnygirl115]

@@DVSPDC it's a genetic condition, and it can affect physical features like the eyes and tongue. Usually with down syndrome, they'll have slanted eyes and poor vision as well as a thickened tongue. It's just part of the symptoms.

[@artsymarci]

It’s a possible physical characteristic, but each person with Down Syndrome is unique. My dance students have very different physical attributes. One student has hyper extension and great coordination. Another student is less coordinated but more expressive and in tune to the music. I love their passion.

[@gemmagemma344]

Music is his soul, he's deffo like billy elliot

[@NoldorianElf]

@South London Metal Detector While this is all true and should be discussed at all times, you just became an abuser yourself! Do you understand why? Not once you show any sign of apprecation or respect for Andrew and his pride, self confidence and considerable achievement. You did not even mentioned his name. No... you simply pushed him aside, his performance and ignore him altogether. You used him as vehicle for your agenda. I don't believe..not for one second, that any victim of the abuses you wrote about would condone would you just did. I tell you that, because I was a victim of abuse. Do yourself a favour and take time to think before you write.

For those saying he won just because of his disability, did we not watch the same video. He's good, REALLY good and definitely earned it

[@thatsEforEveryone]

@Hemp Slayer true however if he didn't have a disability I believe he would have won tbh

[@PherPhur]

Good in this sense transcends dance complexity. This isnt just about dancing, codings not just about 0s and 1s, talking isnt just about intelligence. Ya see humans are interesting creatures, we have a prefrontal cortex that orders priorities, and for the average person we do not only care about 1 thing, we care about many. And truly i tell you there is something to be gained for everyone by putting love as the top priority. That is whats really "good"

[@hello-vs4dc]

Did he win? This video didn’t even say whether he made it any further in the competition. Not that he wasn’t already a winner in people’s hearts after this performance ... I am in awe of his courage because at 50, I’m still terrified of talking in front of a group, etc. And it was truly heartwarming to see how much he loves dancing, and how the audience responded to his exuberance and joy!

[@RandomPlayer717]

HILARIOUS ! 😂

[@caatkins1000]

Rubee - you need to remember that dancing doesn’t come natural or easy to someone like him. That’s why it’s so amazing that he was as good as he was. Just because he isn’t as ‘flexible’ as the other contestants doesn’t mean he isn’t as good. He’s amazing in his own way, he’s in a league of his own.

[@trinaholman4083]

I do not usually watch these things. And when I do, I very seldom comment. That said.... It is exceptionally special when a "special needs" or "disabled" contestant comes to the front to reach for the stars. Whether it is the "Lost Voice Guy" or an amputee dancer or, as in this case, the "Extra Chromosome Kid", they are ALL inspiring. Especially when we recall that it wasn't that long ago when we simply locked these people away behind bleak walls as if they were animals. Win or lose, I say Well done young man. Well done indeed.

[@luprano]

What a beautiful comment Trina Holman and I think it's safe to say that this performance moved a lot of people including myself.

Not only is he good and you see that it's his passion. But also the thought that he doesn't let anything get in his way and he follows it is fantastic. Take a lesson out this people, no matter what syndrome of other problems you have, follow your dream.

[@vermilliongecko]

It doesn't really work like that. Heard of Ehler Danlos Syndrome? Where your joints dislocate every few minutes? Try dancing with that. I did, for 21 years, until it was too painful, until I couldn't even make a cup of tea, let alone dance. Don't preach lessons to disabled people.

[@rakuloe]

@@vermilliongecko dude i have an illness as well that makes just living already difficult. Im not saying you should dance but there is always hope you can achieve some of your dreams and yes sometimes you need to change them up a bit. There was a young girl having that same ilness as you and she went to a special gym, and she can do more things now. ( ofc she is young) so yes i can say that being stubborn and following your dreams can do wonders no matter what.
