Nelson Mandela Biography: Life and Accomplishments of a South African Leader

[@marcspector9188]

most people, in my opinion, play lip service to the greatness of Nelson Mandela. Mandela,in my opinion, was probably one of, if not the greatest, human beings to ever walk the face of this earth.ANyone who doubts or even questions his greatness has some screwballs in his or head I believe. To go through what he went through, and still have no remorse and only love in his heart especially towards the very people that enslaved him, shows what a great man he was and his legacy will never be forgotten. God bless Mandela and the ANC!

[@OfficialVilky]

What an amazing man. He spent his hole life fighting for what he believed in, fighting for what is right, and never gave it up. I don't care who you are this mans life and legacy is what we should all strive to do for what we believe in no matter the cost.

[@DoctorZisIN]

Thank you for responding so quickly to the news with this fitting tribute to one of the greatest leaders of our time. The best tribute we can pay to the man is to follow his example, to seek peace and unity despite our many differences. R.I.P. Nelson Mandela.

[@LavenderJack540]

What a great, brilliant, graceful, astonishingly brave human being. We'll not see exactly his like again. Hawksmoor...From The Bleed.

[@dressingofsalad]

Requiescat In Pace Mr. Mandela. May God grant another soul your wisdom as a leader.

[@billwheels1749]

"I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear." -Nelson Mandela

[@HunterRodrigez]

while Mandela was imprisoned he recited a Poem to other oppressed inmates this poem was "Invictus" by William Ernest Henley, its my favorite poem and here is the text Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul. In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed. Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the horror of the shade, And yet the menace of the years Finds and shall find me unafraid. It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll, *I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul.*

[@HalliwellSon]

He truly was a hero. Rest in peace Mr. Mandela.

[@therealjerryseinfeld4321]

This news ruined my night. Such a great man. Up there with Gahndi and MLK Jr. The iconic thing is that the Nelson Mandela biopic was just released a few days ago. R.I.P

[@naishabatchu]

His name is spelled Gandhi not Gahndi😅😅

[@Mbazzcommoner]

One of the greatest civil rights leaders to ever live. Really up there with MLK and Gandhi.

[@D34DxChevy]

R.I.P You Gave Peace and love to your people Graet man A good head and a good heart are always a formidable combination. Nelson Mandela

[@MineShackle]

I am glad he is finally in Heaven.His life was temporary but his story is everlasting

[@vandercudo]

He looked so how to say cute in his elder years as he would be an really awesome grandpa,and his actions really made him that!

[@NUtDMa]

He also basically got South Africa to host the 2010 World cup, that is something huge for Africa in general. One of the best world cups imo.

[@kaylacolgan]

R.I.P. Nelson Mandela!!! You were a legend, you told your people a story about the journey! I don't care that you spent most of your life in prison! I cared that you were trying to help your people with apartheid!!!

[@mohammedfotboll]

[@maiki7306]

It seems that some people does't like this video but I don't know why. He did many important things. Color of skin is not related to our personality and humanity. All of us are same. And them we have to be fair all the time.

[@Crazshiet]

This is what defines (spelling) true heroes and role models! Not Pop/rock stars nor actors! He was a true inspiration for the rest of the world! RIP man! RIP!

[@Highretrogamelord]

R.I.P. Nelson Mandela. :( Along with Lincoln, Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr. I consider you one of the best people of all time.

[@Sly88Frye]

This was a great short bio of one of the greatest men to ever live.

[@MartinWolgen]

***** Are you really going to compare Mandela to Hitler? Because if so, you're a complete idiot.

[@woismith5899]

Nah. MLK Jr was far greater. What's Mandela's legacy? Nothing. South Africa is a shit hole under black rule.

[@vvvhhh6303]

@@woismith5899 wow wow wow we don't need no shitty opinions here on a 3 year old comment

Nelson Mandela, one of the greatest people of all time. He brought equality and made the world a better place. R.I.P. Nelson Mandela.

[@craftingeffects7817]

RIP MANDELA

[@p1nball3]

very informative, great video about a great man

[@TheBattlefront612]

People need to stop saying the he was a terrorist because he wasn't and he did more good than bad and he served time in prison for the bad things he done even though he had no choice to use violence because after the Sharpeville massacre in which 69 people were killed during a peaceful protests his only options were to start using violence or keep on doing peaceful protests and let more people get killed. R.I.P Nelson Mandela

[@DeSardet46]

Did you have this ready? This was done in only hours? I am intrigued...

[@mivapusa]

While it is sad that the world is now without the greatness of this man, this father figure of a nation, he became almost a hundred years old. I would say that he, if any, deserves the peace of death. I would have liked for him to keep on going for decades to come, but despite all his prowess and achievements, Nelson Mandela was but a man. He left us with dignity and without a wake of corruption, only fitting for a man of his status.

[@mattwatson6693]

We all will miss you Nelson Mandela, rest in peace knowing you've changed the world for the better

[@armineshghi8402]

GREAT MAN R.I.P. FUCK THE PEOPLE WHO DISLIKED YOUR SKUM THIS MAN ACCOMPLISHED MORE THAN ANYONE WHO WLL WATCH THIS VIDEO PUT TOGETHER!!

[@nomhlesicwebu6516]

You didn't know this?

[@general5104]

He had the RIGHT IDEA his whole life! I'm GLAD he finally got the awards and position that he should have had from the start! He had to put up with a criminal form of government, that kept him Incarserated a long while, but I'm glad he was freed to go on and make the difference he had tried to make, frim his youth!

[@ReiAyanami8]

Jimmy Johnson Sources, please.

[@mackmaster100]

Jimmy Johnson I think you're view of the world have ended upside down somehow and you should really try to change that..

[@spaceboy350]

www.wnd.com/2000/07/5704/ just 1 piece u can read. if you look and research your history lot of violence he did'nt condone. even sanctioned the bombing of churches. and many things his wife has done he didn't stop or condone any of this.

[@spaceboy350]

Mackmaster94 you should really try learn your history . My view of the world is not upside down as i know the truth. You obviously don't .

[@mackmaster100]

Jimmy Johnson Well if you look at the other comments in this video you'll probably see that not many agree with you on that..

[@djleandromusic]

You clearly ignorant to what Nelson Mandela has done in South Africa , he was a humanitarian and was given a noble peace prize for his lifes work . He could have led South Africa to a civil war but instead he united South Africans together in peace . Get your facts straight before you start throwing around racist and stupid comments .

[@LeoN-gh2tf]

and was given a noble peace prize for his lifes work . ----------------- 1) Obama also get noble prize 2) united South Africa is myth - google "south africa+white+murder"

[@chekcalbe]

Thanks WatchMojo...I really appreciate this.

[@HarryMudd]

Nelson Mandela will always be a shining example of healing a nations wounds. He could so easily have chosen a harsher route, but chose the more difficult task of asking every southhafrican to forgive eachother for the dark years of opression and segregation.

[@bennytime2789]

RIP Nelson Mandela.

[@DroBONILLA1]

Nelson Mandela, our modern day advocate of Humanity. I will always respect his contributions to our world. May he finally find peace.

[@jeffgordonadi24]

[@LordOfJoy]

You can either live your life like Nelson or you can yell "Yolo! Swag!" and punch your grandma in the face. It's a strange feeling, thinking about how extremely different the people on earth develop.

[@DominikKensylar]

These are the two ways of living? One might assume I am undead for neither of these two is my way.

[@LordOfJoy]

Never said so. These are two ways of about a few billion ways to live your life. And of course, one might assume you are undead.

[@DominikKensylar]

As I suppose your (newest) comment was at least partially of comedic substance, I have to say mine was as well.
