All young people of ANY race should know the story of this man. You can overcome any adversity if you want to achieve your goal. Chief Brashear, thank you for your service and your story.

RIP Master Chief Brasher You served as an inspiration to many. Thank you for what you did

I'm latino and Carl is my hero my god wgat a amazing human being I can't express what I feel about this man ....

This is the history of Americans that need to be taught in the public schools. A true hero and master of his own fate.

His only friend on the diving course of 1954 it was a brazilian officer that was interpret by the guy who stay on the room with him awhile the others left saying that they dont stay with negro at the same room. His name was Alberto Jose Nascimento.

Thank you master chief, i did a essay on you for black history month an it came in first place. R.i.P

Proud to have served with you Master Chief! Airman, 1981

Whenever I need motivation, when I lack motivation, all I need to do is press play and watch "men of honor". This is truly an inspirational story. Whatever you do in life, whatever obstacles you face, it's best to keep your passion and goals in tact.

master chief brashear was a true hero and a great American.plus a gutsy bastard.i have nothing but the highest respect for that man.rest in peace master chief

Mater Chief Brashear,USN THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE. THANK YOU FOR BEING AN AMERICAN HERO.

Настоящий и мужественный человек, пример настоящего воина, который не сдался и боролся до конца, и сделал своё дело! Покойся с миром легенда, ты настоящий пример , каким должен быть человек.

When my first son is born, I will tell my son the beautiful story of Master Chief Carl Brasher. I will inspire him to look up to this man as a hero and inspiration to always be the best and never give up. Thank You Sir

Now that's a man.

I can't get enough of this man's story.

This man is the toughest and hardest man ever, An inspirational story !

This is a hero. I don't care how Hollywood treated the story as you can look at the real story and see that Brashear is an inspiration to anyone. I just wish that I was as much a hero as he is.

Greetings from Australia 🇦🇺… have watched the movie again , but this time also studied his biography…Amazing hero of heroes and a True inspiration of a real Man that overcame 10 fold more obstacles than most of us combined. . May 2022 @1300 ON THE MOVE

Des hero's comme ont s'en fait plus.MAGNIFIQUE.❤

I can’t believe I’m watching the real hero. I found this video by chance. Such a legend

Had a chance to meet this American hero I was stationed at NDSTC Panama city Florida .I retired a Chief Boatswain mate I was not a diver but this Man was a inspiration to all men and women in the Navy ,God Bless Master Chief Master Diver Brashear rest in peace you have earned it

The fact that he had to overcome because he was black is both saddening and maddening. But the fact that he overcame being an amputee is miraculous and heroic beyond belief.

That was a strong man. He was very determined,RIP

Many people don't know but the only friend than Carl has was a Brazilian

A great military man and an inspiration to all races, I wish I would have half of the resolve that chief brashear has.

I think even Jacques Cousteau even mentioned him too. Thank you sir. There is a special place in heaven for legends.

I wish I could have met him, it would have been an honor. R.I.P. Mr. Brashear!!! Love you.

I’ll never forget your story Master Diver Brashears.

to the family of carl brashear he was and still is a great warrior he never gave up on his dreams this nation today could learn a lot from his legacy from this citizen THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE

My deepest respect and admiration for this great man.

Thank you Master Chief Brashear for your Honorary Service to the US Navy and To our country! God bless you Sir!

One of the best films ever, made even better that's it's based on the life of a true warrior. Fighting to make personal and professional success. For all you kids out there.....this is the definition of a legend.

When a person is set on achieving, only death can stop them. Man i feel so inspired.!! Some folks are truly built different.!

Carl brashier is the one who inspired me to be a scuba diver..the man is my hero and a legend

Seeing Carl walk through the crowd brought me to tears. What a man !!

Thinking about you tonight, sir! You are an inspiration. Thank you for holding onto your passion and convictions. I hope I can raise my child to grow up and never give up. Thank you for being you.

I have nothing but the highest honor and respect for this man he lost a leg and he still wanted to serve like I said I have the highest honor and respect for this man

I am floored by the obstacles this man over came. Understand how dam had it is to become a navy diver let alone master diver regardless of who you are. If that wasn't dam near impossible add in all those who stood in his way due to racial ignorance at that time. To me the Black Americans who pushed all that shit aside and bulldozed their way to success are all truly heros. All of those whom I've met are not bitter over it in the least, I find that truly amazing. I can't imagine after having gone to war and upon my return having one of my brothers be told you can't sit in this bar and have a beer after fighting for this nation. By God if any of my men had been told that today we'd have taken the dam place apart. Seems so dam absurd cause trust me when the bullets start flying and it dawns on you these fuckers are really trying to kill you and your soliders (your family, your brothers) you do not give a dam what color he is only that he's there watching your 6 just as you watch his. History has proven Black American soliders are a force to be reckoned with and God bless'em.

Thank you very much for your support and that is my granddad but died before I could even see him only my sister she is 14

I’m an army vet. This is my all time favorite movie.

To hear this American hero’s story just gives you chills. To not give up when so many times when many would have and should have he kept going. Years he fought not hours days or weeks years. It truly shows what a person is capable of doing if they truly put forth the effort. I wouldn’t have made it past the first denial letter. He is what every man should inspire to be.

I don't care who you think you are...race...rank...social status....you need to stand up and salute this man, for there are very few of his honor left in this world...............at least willing to show it!! THANK YOU SIR!!!

This movie makes me sad and happy all at the same time .

In my eyes,this man is the king of encouragement,even over King David in the bible

A very inspirational man, his passion inspires me to follow my passion now. Though I’m not military, I still find inspiration in his true story

I was so proud of that movie and Master Chief! I am in Norfolk now, but not in the service any longer, BZ, Master Chief and RIH!

2:27 This film does not portray reality as it is not said that this short man on the left is a late Brazilian soldier named "Alberto José do Nascimento"

One of the greatest movies I’ve ever seen,!! To this day those 12 steps scene always touches my heart😢 It inspires me, reminds me of how lucky I am to have the family I have and the mentally to never quit until until quitting is not even an option.🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾

Carl Brashear - Hall of Fame Inductee in the History of the World for Perseverance, Grit, Honor.

A totally Men of honor!!! 👍

Just reconfirmed my enjoyment of this movie. Although a an Army retired get luv this movie and it's authenticity.

In Memory Of Carl Brashear The First African-American U.S. Navy Master Diver. (Born: January 19, 1931 - Died: July 25, 2006)

One of my most profound conversations and honors during time in the Navy! Very impactful upon me Master Chief!

This is truly an amazing inspirational story of Carl brashear

Thank you Carl Brashaer I know for a fact you’d stand up for Americans who are being attacked today because we need people like you

iI love this man 4 what he did no one will ever fill his SHOES

Today i was at V.A. Hospital for an appointment and i saw a video of his son Maxi talking about his Father and his story and i must have seen the movie several times and when i saw his son talk about what his Dad had to do to become a Master diver and his son is a CWO Army helicopter pilot. I feel proud to have served!

God bless Carl.

He was such a distinctive, well-mannered, well-presented, and elegant man! Glod bess you and may you rest in peace, Mr. Brashear!

I remember BMMC Carl Brashear on the cover of The Naval Reserve magazine when I was in 1965-1971 very proud of his achievements RIP Brother

One great man and I've seen this movie many a time, cause hes such a great inspiration, and even in today's world could use more men like him! Great man great movie, and nothing but the highest respect to you sir salute 🥂🇱🇷

He may not have had many friends then, but Jesus he has now ! Thank you for you service Master Chief *salute*

Master chief🙏🏾 You Jane no idea how many black people in South Africa 🇿🇦 joined the navy after witnessing your life story in cinema... I have a friend that chose the Navy out on f school through your story. Funny thing is, we got the finest naval cadets we’ve ever seen “par exellance” 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

I was in special programs at ntc. Master chief Brasheir came and talked to us at ntc, I was so honored to see the man in person and hear his words

I love this movie despite what he went through it really shows if you want something bad enough you will give 120%. Through the highs and lows good and bad. N G U! Never give up!

Carl Brashear is a true hero! RESPECT

Well, I guess there is something else to say: I don't think enough words, or the right ones, can truly define Carl Brashear's character. There was no "black card" to hide behind, no "I've been cheated, so you all owe me something":. Just guts, so that even the biggotts and his enemies eventually respected him. Great story, and a great movie. Best Cuba Gooding Jr performance, and one of the best Robert Deniro roles,in my opinion. Okay; now enough said on my end.

Never gets old.... The best movie ever, and sir Carl breshier hats off

Great movie, watched many, many times, a son never forgets, now give me ten cookie.​

Respect to you sir! Thank you

One hell of a man, one hell of a movie, God bless you sir.

People like him prove that EVERYONE can achieve their goals. The only thing stopping you - is YOU

A True Legend and Hero Wow.

I first heard about Carl Brashear in the early 80s on the show Real People. An inspiring story.

His son could be his twin!

Carl was an amazing person every black man (yes I am Black) should strive to be just as willing!! Blew me away though when I heard that Billy Sunday was a fictional character!! I thought he was real!!!

FANTASTIC, WONDERFUL. THANK YOU.
