Stepping Forward: The Koni Dole Story

After getting his right leg amputated, Koni Dole returns to the game he loves with determination, passion, and a new prosthetic leg.

[@megballard1190]

This is my grandson and no matter how many times I watch it I still cry. So proud of him!

[@kyledougherty6219]

Meg Ballard sure it is

[@dylanizydorczyk3411]

Meg Ballard yeah sure

[@BadgolfTV]

[@kindrasedgwick5487]

Meg Ballard he went to my school! I was at the football game he got very injured at 💔 it scared me and broke my heart.

[@kindrasedgwick5487]

I remember waving to him at the back of the ambulance 💔 I cried he was amazing. He is a great kid but this night made me so sad. My sister was his sisters best friend so me and koni would always play toss with me ❤️

[@williamf.w.mcdonald3063]

The sky is the limit for you Koni. Keep that work ethic and that desire strong. Your story is amazing.

[@jolissa98]

Ahh man Koni, there aren't enough words in the world to describe the inspiration that you have so graciously spread with your story. You give new meaning to my role as a football mama & God bless both of your parents for what they went through. Most of all, God bless you for your relentless strength! NFL or no NFL, you will go places son!

This video is so inspirational, if I ever think I can't do something I hope someone will call bull. If you can get back on the field after a break and amputated leg I'm 10 months, I think i can do something smaller. I love this video, Knoi Dole you absolutely impress, and inspire me.

[@KessieStevens]

Awe what a great story, I used to with with his dad, Andy, who is Samoan. This is so inspiring I am so proud of Koni and the family!

[@steinbergidan]

Amazing kid. Good luck for him, very inspiring.

[@virginiawilkinson742]

You are such an inspiration and now it's a whole different game. You hang in there Koni. You will continue for now just breathe in and out every day. You will survive and new adventures are going to come your way. You are a survivor. Bless you Koni.

[@LeflerJordan]

Way to make Montana proud! I may be a Griz fan but I'm rooting for you! Good luck with MSU!

[@celiajaeger5255]

Man this is so cool to me I've never seen a video like this from Montana as an athlete from one of the smallest towns in Montana this is awesome.

[@blake-hp9iu]

Who would dislike this

[@kindrasedgwick1886]

Exactly, I still come back to this video. I knew Koni, this story is heart breaking.

[@RobetPaulG]

Wow. This is an impressive guy! Best wishes towards him for his awesome attitude.

[@nicholasletang8878]

This Griz fan will be cheering for you, Koni! Keep on inspiring us!

[@jaydog985]

BTW....don't get rid of this video..... Makes me want to go into :"beast" mode at the gym...

[@EricIbe]

Mad respect 😢💯

[@josephmorales1995]

That's incredible!!

[@aaronespinoza4050]

Much respect

[@LivingMicah]

My parents would have never let me see even a picture of a football field if that happened to me.

[@nickcarter997]

Mad respect dude!

[@justjulie23]

Someone needs to share this with Bryant Gumbel's, 'Real Sports'.....!!!!!

[@TheGotHeem]

the ending song is "Who you are" by Building Castles. I think you can only listen to it on soundcloud

[@luciwolfesynek4313]

One amazing young man! Good Luck trying out for MSU!

[@nickevans770]

Hes awesome 🙏💯 that's wassup over coming adversity🙏

[@BigSkyWarZone]

Welcome to Big Sky Football Koni

[@jasoncipitelli362]

Damn some people take so much for granted

[@BrinkersMad]

dude is this guy part samoan or something? that'd explain his physicality and determination

[@madditz]

BrinkersMad he is. Fathers side

[@jolissa98]

SERIOUSLY! I cannot find it either! :(

[@gpowderxdd]

Really touching and moving. Claps for Koni. He did inspire me , but I won't call the sport he played football. Football is sphere in shape.

[@greysongladney4403]

That's the beauty of language.... Meanings are different from language to language. Football here is American football and soccer (which fyi was the original name) is what we call our sphere kicked by a foot sport. How about you just enjoy the video and let us call our sports the way we call them, eh?

[@jaydenrussell4906]

Koni made the team at Montana State, and got to play in his first college game last Saturday, a 45-10 win for the Bobcats. He's earned the playing time. twitter.com/BradB3030/status/640368911905521667 He is the "excuse eliminator" for his teammates and an everyday inspiration. Kudos and respect to you Koni!

[@jeremiahtrigueros8847]

I have a lot ofrespect for koni he works hard and fights for till the end such a inspiration man!

[@jeremiahtrigueros8847]

I live in California I'm hoping I can watch the montana state games.

[@jaydog985]

Instrumental song at 3:40 with the beat in the back round.... What is that?

[@AlvinYorkII]

WHAT is the name of the song? It's bugging me i spent the last hour trying to find it!

[@geofox1741]

What's the name of that song?

[@theroach4400]

What truck he got?

[@jaydog985]

6:50 I will take it as for as my body will let me go, But I know my MIND will get me father-- Their is no excuse for anything, nothing worth having in Life comes easy.....
