You won't believe how far this 61-year-old walks for work

[@alangoodwin1966]

That’s a man. Doing what he HAS to do , to feed his family. That’s honor, drive, loyalty, devotion, commitment and love. May God bless this man seven fold!!

[@MP-lj4co]

@Alan Goodwin. Why not eight fold? Stingy.

[@Navy35]

This is why it makes me so angry when I hear politicians say that illegals take jobs that Americans won’t do!

[@jmgmarcus808]

Ellen needs to get this guy a small car, instead of giving damn Daniel a lifetime supply of shoes. This is not right. USA today just watches him like a zoo animal and says wow.

[@chailatte7926]

Vans gave him the lifetime supply of sneakers, not Ellen. But your point is definitely right on.

[@plainzero7847]

This guy works at a casino and the casino is aware of his commute, correct? I can only assume so after working there for so long. You're telling me that the casino can't figure out a way to help this 61 year old man who has been loyal to their company for however long? Thats some greedy shit I tell ya... When you hear about stories like this, then you look at the place of employment for that person. It's hard to not think less of that company, or in this case, casino.

[@zcorpalpha2462]

Plain Zero Welcome to reality

[@fruitmonkey1292]

Casino employees should unionize

[@Discipleofthelordandjesus]

@@fruitmonkey1292 vegas will never let the odds be in others favors🤣unions will milk casinos as they should

[@thestork2210]

I live in NYC, I love these small towns, people are more cordial in there, and they have a peaceful and quiet life.

[@clairepaul3573]

I would totally help this guy if I saw him :) he works so hard to keep his job and it is amazing

[@kendricboykin4829]

I was complaining about waiting an hour to catch the bus when I get off work, but I will keep mouth shut now. At least I have some type of transportation. When you think you have it bad, others have it worse.

[@CrazyhawkSS]

God bless you get a car one day.

[@colombianflag717]

Very true

[@bonnieyoung4037]

The walking is good for his health he'll live a long time, what a wonderful husband

[@danielhorton8986]

That's amazing.. unbelievable tough guy.

[@rosemaryspencer1501]

I don't know how he does it.

[@grimreaper4733]

I would buy this guy a bike....

[@maryshaffer8474]

Bicycles aren't allowed on interstates, motorcycles hAve to have license, insurance, and upkeep.

[@cheddarbob8368]

mary shaffer u think u could push a bike on the interstate tho? Honest question and I’m not asking you bc I think u know or sumn lol

[@michaelanderson9792]

I don't drive this winter I was walking to my bank and nearly there when a woman with two dogs stopped and asked if I needed a ride I thanked her and smiled i am where I need to be I said but bless your heart for thinking of me.

[@mitchmiller2382]

Someone please offer this man a job close to where he lives. That would be the easiest solution.

[@puppetmaster3911]

This man will stay healthy though.... what a trooper.

[@TheForeverMacedonian]

Everywhere is a hard life... Bravo for this man who walking away to work to earn a piece of bread for him and his family... I wish all the best to further :) Greeting from Republic of Macedonia...

[@radigeorgiev9662]

[@leeleeperez7415]

I will NEVER complain about my hour walk to work EVER AGAIN!!!! #INSPIRATIONAL

[@dblessed6789]

Toughest man I ever seen .. this is unbelievable

[@TheQueenSpider]

This is a proud man.

[@omenncs]

Well doing all this walking at 61 he's set to live till he's atleast 110

[@ala4362]

Actually no

[@KozzieJ]

It should help tho

[@jasonyorlang5934]

I appreciate this man. He is motivating.

[@drnocka-rocksteady]

I use to walk 1 mile to my 18 wheeler and thought I was doing something. 🚶🚶🚶🚶

[@smokey-smore]

this was 5 years age wonder where he is now

[@michaelanderson9792]

He must be in great shape

[@michael93DG]

God bless this man

[@LaughterandJesus]

My mom doesn't drive and she loves to walk. As a child I use to feel embarrassed.....watching this......my mom isn't alone. I actually love to walk.

[@luckyclarke7189]

Does anyone have any update on this man?aww

[@ebenclukey7293]

He feels healthy because of all that cardio. Between the daily miles and the purpose dude will live forever. Don't feel bad. The man has cemented himself as local legend.

[@maribelbarquie]

Amazing things in life ...at times necessaries never impossible. This man's journey is pre-historically lived and today's recorded....Wow!👍

[@carolliubicich8222]

Beautiful strong story Thank you

[@cristambaoan1005]

Can't you do something for him pls... This is heartbreaking...

[@happyhermit8802]

Someone should invent the bicycle!

[@5065ca]

PUT THIS IN YOUR GOOGLE SEARCH BAR; davis city ia to osceola ia distance ; the distance is listed as 29 miles and it would take 9 hours 41 min to walk...his commute and work day is over 27 hours, he must sleep on the job..

[@Jwodcock]

Currently work with him and hes still putting in work.

[@tomsmith3987]

I have walked 5 hours to work before

[@ai6894]

Grandparent: "Boy, when I was your age we had to walk 12 miles every morning one way for class!" This video: invalidated the above statement.

[@georgethompson3763]

I can't imagine doing that everyday without at least listening to a podcast. I would be so bored to walk that long without any distraction.

[@Angel_Peg]

Exactly i will hve to listen to music at least one earphone on one side the other one free so i can hear my surroundings.

[@YahwehIsMine]

OMG I CRIED THE WHOLE TIME...WHATS GOING NOW WITH THEM...PLEASE

[@Busola29]

[@moonman2588]

Ofc he is full of shit lmao

[@scdevon]

They look able to afford a moped or a scooter and he certainly looks in good enough health to ride a bicycle. (Yes I know it snows in Iowa but the weather is half decent there at least 9 months out of the year).

[@mr.wizard2974]

hell I use to walk to school that was 50 miles all uphill in the snow barefoot.

[@zortman100]

One tough man... I couldn't do it now and I'm half his age 😭

[@AngelekaL]

$400 rent that they barely afford, no gas for the minivan, and he’s walking hours to work in dangerous conditions. What is happening here!

[@adammarkowitz7944]

No one can walk 35 miles each way to work, that's just silly. And the narrative says he has a mini-van but can't afford to put gas in it. That's less than two gallons of gas--one way-vs. 7 hours of walking? That would be 14 hours a day of walking and 8 hours of workHard to believe. -

[@oldbatwit5102]

35 miles each way is 24 hours walking..... every 24 hours

[@carolann2710]

He says '"Y KNOW"' EVERY SENTENCE , WHAT

[@fiziwee386]

wat

[@surfax100]

Inspirational!

[@itsmecc2454]

I wonder if someone had seen this and offered him rides.

[@601man4]

Well when you walk everyday u get faster and it doesn't bother you as much as it used to when you walk everyday

[@johnnyhuggins2520]

Probably in good shape

[@apdjr7309]

Best gift for such person is a bicyle... convenience (no upkeep, no gas, light) plus exercise!

[@monicagaleana609]

God bless his soul. Can we help him?

[@WienerVL]

Ive watched many of this vids! Whats going on in US?

[@YourGraceMyLady]

Can’t believe ppl don’t stop n offer a ride. This shouldn’t be happening in this day and age

[@tomcognilio1816]

He looks really healthy

[@PrettyINCs]

So was this real? Walking 35 miles both ways seems like he'd be rail thin and muscular. How is his job worth keeping if it doesn't pay him enough to put gas in his car?

[@abcdefg15005]

If there was a way to give him a car I have one to give him

[@maryshaffer8474]

I want to see his heart health.

[@dixiedoesit]

I would go to his house and take him to work.

[@mrgonzalez4583]

I wish someone gave this man a Honda

[@arvindraramdass9824]

Good soul

[@toddstewart9070]

motorized bicycle?

[@trevormichaud8701]

Me going to get weed lol

[@jonathancoleman7148]

😂

[@ecclairmayo4153]

I'm not surprised honestly. He is an older veteran, those are always the toughest most committed men I know! I think this is dangerous for him though, because he could get hit by a car. If there is a fund to help him get a car or some type of gas, I want in

[@celestemcguigan3858]

Obviously no fatigue management requirements at his work......😕

[@marcyallison5996]

No way

[@JoseSilva-gp4zq]

I walk 22 to work every 5 days a week.

[@philipblades9343]

My grandfather said as a kid he walked 20 miles uphill both ways to school my mom told me the liar lived across the street from school

[@williammize8799]

B.s. on that 60 miles round trip took me 4 half to go 7 miles ahah

[@FaithandNova]

Something about this story I don't believe.

[@gbalo241]

so he walks 12 hours to and from work and "works" so this guy is gone like 20 hours if he is working an eight shift

[@tinywentz]

buy a $600 scooter. hell they get 70 miles to the gal. cheaper then buying shoes every 8 weeks.

[@jonathancoleman7148]

Ridge runner 1 good idea

[@modernrebel3788]

thats a lot of walking

[@megleague1130]

This guy has a car. Just no gas money

[@victoriabardsley8097]

I wonder how Steve is doing now? He'd be 66 and I hope he's been able to find some transportation to help him get to and from his job.

[@mitchmiller2382]

Getting a second job for 8-10 hours a week would pay for that $7 week in gas easily (thereby cutting out that insane amount of walking), and would put a lot more hours back into his sleep and family life.

[@FaithandNova]

Truthfully what he's doing makes no sense. I would have been found a way to make the extra for gas

[@TheCissero]

Maybe he gets a cot at work to overnight it and some and rides from troopers by now.

[@donicibianca4362]

car for u i pray

[@johnfolsom9682]

Why don’t one of these rich people buy this man a car?

[@cristianchavez1413]

Bruh he works dubble shift

[@larrydeleau8538]

This an amazing story..but it doesn't add up...walks 14 hrs a day...works at least 8....sure he's starving when gets home..gotta eat...so he's getting maybe 90 mins sleep...sorry no can do..the body can't do that....maybe I'm wrong...usually am...but it just doesn't add up..

[@Akva77]

Does he ever zzzzzz?

[@JohnHallgren]

If you want to help out: www.gofundme.com/Steve-Simoff

[@5065ca]

John Hallgren why it's hog wash

[@annjean8709]

This is so sad!😞😞😞

[@paulmartinez4605]

I guess a bike is out of the question then?

[@Vitriden]

Sorry about my ignorance, but don't you think a bicycle or a motorcycle would have been a somewhat better solution?

[@JohnHallgren]

Bicycle has multiple issues: 1) Some roads are more dangerous on bike than foot 2) If on a bike, he'd have to use it ENTIRE way cause getting rides with a bike would be difficult if not impossible 3) Weather - safer to walk in snow 4) Health issues might prevent biking but not walking 5) He is allowed to walk on interstate but bike would be illegal for sure He also may not feel safe on a motorcycle as would have to ride in traffic lanes.

[@fireluvr]

he wanted to get away from his wife

[@SamiulHaque1466]

nice video....

[@AIUpscalerx]

liked the video but the intro was an earrape

[@erikbreaman9124]

Don't worry I'll do it: More proof people choose to be poor.. You're welcome America

[@metromrtro9122]

I think it's great that you would do anything for your family you definitely proved that but walking 5/7 hours each way you can move around the casino work a double shift and still spend 30 hours more a week at home great person you are. But. come on

[@bipolatelly9806]

Get a pushbike, ya silly bugger!!!?!!

[@BodycamBureau-b9d]

word.

[@a633319111]

remember "lawn skis"! they work on most surfaces! (except snow)

[@katarzynamariamuszynska2811]

He working in the night shift So when he finish job he will be back home how long it takes him to walk back after the job? I thought the usa today could gives him even used car

[@estelleschneider9033]

He has a van.they do not have money for gas..back and forth

[@rubyjames3105]

sell that fuckin box and by another box close to work to put your couch and bed in. it's a fuckin box!

[@binboy7263]

im calling bullshit how far he walks so the dude never sleeps ??????

[@jsg8771]

Buy him a car with the money you made off him. Shows you how little news stations give a shit

[@dyardsale5475]

I don't believe it. Google maps says it's 11 hours walking each way.

[@FaithfulReasoning]

I'm trying to do the math, he walks 5-6 hours each way that's 12 hours plus 8 hour shift that's 20 hours, so he's sleeping only 3 to 4 hours a night🤔🤔😕😕

[@ecclairmayo4153]

He is running on fumes!

[@hassanmohamed5472]

this strange mentality would make the people not to help one another i gave rides so many people needed and ignored strange people
