During the day time performance of our 2016 marching show, someone went down on the field. It is a little hard at first to see where he is but if you watch it a couple times you can figure it out.
I would like to take a second to point out something. This video isn't for views, attention, or to call myself a hero. It is to make aware how little people are to go out of their way for someone. Granted we were in the middle of the performance, BUT, he was on the ground for a good 10 seconds before I got to him. People were marching all over and around him but no one stopped to help. That doesn't make me special, but I had to do something in order to help him. I couldn't let people just keep marching all over him, that would be awful. Some people after the show were saying things like, "I was going to help him but..." There are no buts here. Someone should have helped him. He was on the ground for a long time, the least you could do was help. Did me helping put me out the rest of the show? Yes, but I would rather not finish a show and help someone than he die and live with the regret.
Also, for the record, I asked the other person in this video to see if it was okay to use this clip, he has agreed it was alright to use.
My message is to pay it forward, you saw a "good deed" here, now go make a difference.

A COUPLE THINGS: 1) This is a college exhibition show, not a high school 2) I know you were probably told just “march over people” that went down 3) If you’re wondering why there are hardly any views on a video with nearly 2 million views, there used to be thousands of comments. I set the video to private by mistake not realizing it would remove all the comments so now the comment section is empty. Enjoy the video. Be a good person.

I’m in high school and they told us “If you see someone faint whether it’s summer band, after school rehearsal, football games, competition, UIL, state championships, or even grand nationals, help them out. Don’t put a fellow bandmate’s life in jeopardy just to get a better score, 'cause depending on the judge they might lower your score.”

@ta3kwondo 4 года назад

Willow Sky because football injuries can be WAY worse than collapsing on the field. Pretty much all of the time it's being dehydrated, locking knees, or twisting an ankle. Football is a different story however. That's why they're treated differently

@galicode2887 4 года назад

@@ta3kwondo Fainting on a field should be seen exactly as getting a cramp in the leg as a football player. Football players know the risk just like band members. Each should be treated equally with respect. If a football player fainted from exhaustion/ heat, the game would stop, so why not for a band member?

@ta3kwondo 4 года назад

Hannah Walters football games are constantly stopping and starting. To stop for an injured player is no big deal. Competitions, however, are not something you stop and start again. For one, it would throw the the time off for every band after. Each band has a certain amount of time on the field. You can't go over this time. And it's not the performers job to help other members. There should be band boosters or athletic trainers on the sideline ready to help people, just like football. It's not about showing respect. It's just not feasible to stop the show for one member.

jinnie eats When I worked the city day parades with the PD, there were 5ft troughs of water along the route. If any band member was looking like heat exhaustion or sun stroke, they were immediately dunked in the water. Uniform and all to cool the person down immediately. Many schools that marched had only fall/winter wool uniforms to wear for football season. Didn’t go well for the summer day parade. The dunk saved many from further complications.

@MailaGraal 4 года назад

Yeah it really is dangerous to March in some degrees. They won't stop the show for ANYTHING at all. 4 years ago a girl guard broke her foot in the middle of the show and she had to crawl back off the field to get out of everyone's way. Another light-hearted example, two days ago when we were practicing I had shoes on that were a little too big for me (in our style of March, we March backwards on our toes) so I started back marching and both my shoes fell off and are woodwinds the director had to sprint and take them off the field.

Rescue as in having compassion and making sure the person was ok and getting the necessary help. As for stepping up...its because no one else did and is emphasizing that at least Scott did. I totally get the quotations as there is nothing hard to understand about it and is not sarcasm.

@DragonLover-hb7pz 5 лет назад

Kronk well, it’s not the band members fault all the time. Like echo said, you only need 1 person to help, 2 max. And a lot of directors drill into your head, “don’t stop for anything, the show must go on” while a lot of directors wouldn’t mean, don’t stop and help someone if they’ve passed out, but rather the band members thinking that way. I know I personally would stop no matter what, even if my director told me not to, luckily she doesn’t, but still. Unless I really couldn’t, I would definitely stop. And I know a lot of people would too.

I had a thought. During a football game, when someone faints or is injured, the whole entire game is stopped and everybody stays silent for the fallen player out of respect. But when it comes around band, if somebody faints, the marcher is ignored and everybody continues on. I am in marching band myself so I understand the value of how a show looks. But shouldn’t the marcher be shown the same respect?

Ethan McKelroy "Following orders"? This isn't the marines or something, its marching band. I'm pretty sure the judges (if there even are any) aren't going to point him for helping a marcher who fainted off the field. When someone faints, you must always assume its serious. Sure, it could just be heat stroke or exhaustion, but he could have been having a stroke, and no one would save him just to save a performance. This was the right call.

@malditobandito98 6 лет назад

Ethan McKelroy Are you kidding me, kid? Someone fainting could be something serious, he could've been having a stroke or any sort of attack.

There’s a toxic mindset that a lot of marching band directors (especially old ones) try to drill that’s “no matter what happens, keep marching”. Not only does that mean you keep marching if you drop your music or your pants fall off, it includes leaving a comrade behind or running into a bystander during a parade for fear of breaking line. It’s really stupid, because some directors flip a shit whenever someone holds up the line during practice, even if it’s for a good reason, so there’s that “I can’t help anyone” mindset that the marchers develop. I’m proud of you for helping. I don’t know your director, and I don’t know if they had that WHATEVER YOU DO JUST MOVE ALONG attitude, but unfortunately so many do. So glad you sacrificed your spot in line!

I know this video is over two years old now, but it just popped up in my recommended. I would just like to say how amazing this is. As marchers, most of our directors have passed on such toxic attitudes to us about “if someone falls, leave them, they’re down,” but marching band is a team sport. We cannot be a team if we don’t support each other. This person obviously wasn’t getting up on their own and no one else was coming to help, so thank you for helping them when that massive band would not.

I think you forget the state of mind in marching band. Just b/c some one messes up and falls you don't. If something goes wrong you act like everything is fine. Now that being said, I would and also encourage some others to help some one if they faint in a show as that is very serious and they're not on the ground b/c they messed up. However under normal circumstances the show must go on and normally if other people fall even in your way you keep going. I've even been ran over and have ran over others it happens. And I've also seen this but I didn't have to stop and help myself as others were quick to. So just keep this in mind when you attempt to pass judgment on others. Esp. When you work months for scores of this one performance. And walking off the field most definitely DQ this band

Kind of the opposite but Jack State University 2016 was the coldest I have ever been. My friend (Baritone) and I (flute) were both in our member jackets, had blankets and had hot hands and we were still freezing. But the person that had it worse was the little girl sitting behind us. She was a thin little girl wearing a light jacket and that was it. She kept telling her mom she was cold and her mom couldn't do anything so she kept telling her that it would be over soon but in reality there was still two more performances and then awards. The only thing that we could do to help was to give her some of our unopened hot hands. When we asked her mom if she wanted them and explained how they worked, the look in the moms face was something I don't think either of us will ever forget. The little girl of course didn't really understand what we were talking about but the mom did and I am glad that we could help that little girl and her mom out. I don't think anyone knew that it would be that cold. We swear it got below freezing if not in the single digits.

I’ve seen this happen too many times in my band while marching. Thankfully a director, a judge, or someone who wasn’t marching saw and got them off the field immediately. It’s scary to experience and just as scary to watch. You just see the person go down and have no idea what is happening. What makes it even scarier is that sometimes you don’t even know they go down until after the performance is over. I’m sure that everyone has been told at one point or another to “not stop for anything”, but if something like this happens, you should stop and help. Whether it be in practice or a competition, something like this should be taken care of as soon as possible. You shouldn’t march past the person and leave them there. That decision reflects badly on you. And while I’m sure people have their own reasons for marching past the person this has happened to, I don’t believe it to be right. The whole band is in this together and every decision you make reflects positively or negatively on the entire band. I believe that your decision to help this person instead of leaving him there reflects positively on your band and what kind of person you are. I know many people would not have the courage to step out of the drill and do what you did. It was a very courageous thing to do. Thank you for everything you did to help this person.

Sad as hell to see no one else stepped in and everyone just went around him lmao those of y’all who have band directors that say that, y’all got twisted minded ass band directors. I had mine say a couple weeks ago that if we were missing games and Monday evening practices for being sick or other personal issues, like family issues, then we have our priorities set wrong. That just did it for me. I wish I had been wide awake that morning because I would have set him as straight as he thinks his priorities are.

John waffle WV Your bandmate’s health should matter far more than a temporary score. This man could’ve been seizing, could’ve had heat stroke, or could’ve been going through something life threatening. A field show does not matter as much as a human life.

@jackmoseley1628 4 года назад

@@annaa.9990 Could have been something worse. But, was most likely just either a fall, locking knees, or overheating. Marching band is like synchronized swimming. If one person is out, it sucks. Even more so when multiple people break the form to help someone.

"I wanted to help but......" No. If you wanted to help how come I didn't see you helping me saving a life? "The conductor told us to keep going though." And?

David Ng lets say that at your band mates funeral after they die of heat exhaustion like do you realize how dumb you sound? Don’t help someone because your supposed to keep marching no exceptions. And then people have the audacity to preach one band one sound and how marching band is a bond if you would rather watch me burn in a thick uniform and potentially have further injuries than to break out of show for one competition you are not my band mate.

I did this once during a run through at the end of a practice. A freshman trumpet player fainted and everyone just kept going. I ran, picked her up with my sousaphone still on me and brought her to the sideline to get water. I'd do it again if I had to but bottom line is. You can never have too much H2O

@ingridlee2587 4 года назад

I’m in AFJROTC, and we had this one cadet faint while we were running, so... I decided to stop running, and help him finish the mile instead of getting my PR. So, I guess you could say that Band and ROTC both have something in common... We both care for one another, and when one of our brethren fall, we must help them up and do what we can to finish the job. No matter if it means stopping a competition, or a performance to help them. YOU MUST HELP NO MATTER WHAT, OR IT WILL COME BACK TO BITE YOU IN THE FUTURE!!!

That's fine in afjrotc. I did that for my AFROTC unit. But in marching band, it's very controversial to do this. I understand that you can't have 20 people stop to help the guy, but SOMEONE has to.

@spider-woman9482 2 года назад

@@cadenorris4009 these people are completely brainwashed it's insane. a competition/sport made up by humans, scores being written on a thin piece of paper that won't even matter in the future is more important than saving a human being's life..."we're not supposed to" so because some other human tells you not to assist another human being that's suffering, you're going to listen to them? i hope people like this get a taste of their own medicine. then they'll see the true value of protocol, a concept made up by ordinary beings to keep others under control.

@Clark98 4 года назад

Thank you for bringing attention to this! You never know what health issues someone has. I get the whole “bank kids should be tough” thing because, let’s face it, bank kids like us aren’t really look at by society (especially in high school) as popular or tough, but that day you helped a fellow human in need. That to me is pure coolness. Imagine your body going through something so hard that it can’t even hold itself up anymore! The guy needed medical supervision. Also, people could have stepped (marched) all over him, or tripped on him and dropped their instrument on his head. Baritones are heavy! Good for you Scott. Good good good! From the comments I learned the guy’s name was Weston. I know this is from three years ago but Weston, my dude, I hope you’re doing well! Much love.

@@saintcel51 I would definitely say it's a sport. There is so much sweat, time, effort, and teamwork that goes into this. If golf is considered a sport and all you're doing is swinging a club, marching band (whether at a highschool or college level), far surpasses the term.
