He didn't win a medal but he did win the hearts of everybody who watched him complete the race. People can win medals and never be remembered again but to come last and be remembered forever shows humans care more about what you put in then what you take away which was shown in this historic moment.

RIP

[@s1n5_0]

I just cried. It reminds me of life's situation. The security was doing his job but this had to work out this way to be a testimony to others. Blessings to the one who created this video. Blessings to Derek Redmond and his dad for the reminder to never give up. Man plans but God directs......

[@Livingoracle68]

Derek won my heart. He was wounded but not not rejected. He kept his focus on the finishing line. Life is never a bed of roses.... It is lined with curved called challenges and bends called opportunity. You may scream, yell or cry but never you give up both on yourself and on God. Keep hope alive! Shalom.

[@dashdash8266]

He held him at his first steps and then held him at his most important steps, any man can be a guy with a kid but its takes so much more to be a father, never giving up on you child, never letting them walk alone and holding them in their darkest moments is what a father does naturally.
