Unbelievable that no one ran out there they just stood and watched and video taped. Good ol America. I always help ppl out and half the time don't even get a thank you or they will want even more and take advantage of it.
Yup. You can tell they are good friends...first he calls him dumbass(in a friend way),and than you see him cry cause he got hurt. That's real friendship.
Well done dude, I know how hard it is to find something besides racing dirtbikes. In 2014 december I also had an accident during supercross in Germany where I broke my back and put me in the wheelchair. I know what you went trough! Nice to see you found something again, I know how important this is. Goodluck on your next career!
Serious props to Polaris for stepping up to the plate and giving a racer vet a second chance. I have never owned a polaris but you have just won a customer when I do. If you treat your athletes this well, I can only imagine how well you treat your staff in creating a superior made product. This was an amazing doc.
My son raced with Jessy all through mini cycles, he was always one of the fastest kids on the track. Great kid with a great family, I would give anything for him to walk again and race mx.
Freak accidents can happen anywhere; falling down the stairs, jumping in the pool, driving a car, ect. don't be scared of life and do what you love. Jessy you are so inspiring to everyone and we all need to give our 100% all the time! 💪🏼
Wow, this is a powerful documentary. I remember the day of your horror crash at the outdoors. I caught it on RUclips as someone had captured it.....sort of. To see the journey you’ve been on since with the rehabilitation, life change & all the other difficulties you’ve faced & likes be right, you’ve really put in the hard work to be back to enjoying racing, even if it isn’t motocross/supercross, it’s still racing which is your passion. I’ve been watching Us supercross/motocross over here in the UK for a good 25 years & seen some bad accidents, yours didn’t look so bad but, obviously the outcome was so severe, life changing. I believe you will walk again & you will swing your leg over a motocross bike again. Impossible is nothing Jessy. Respect👍🏼
Honestly, I don't cry a lot but I couldn't hold it back here. Sorry. Also it is so impressive how you became pro after your thumb injury, even more astonishing! I never knew that.
Not only is this video a testament to the human spirit and how it refuses to be broken despite being beaten down and left to die in the muck, but also the importance of having incredible people behind you, whether it's parents, friends, wives, husbands, etc when you're in the process of rebuilding yourself stronger and better than you were before! Also, here's hoping that his upcoming surgery to remove a cyst from his spine is successful and that it helps create a connection in his body to where he regains even more function 'n feeling! This young man is a bad ass and I'll always be a fan!!
Having lost my brother to complications of a broken back, I was more than happy to make donations to the cause. Glad your making things happen and living the life you want in a positive way.
I was very lucky to meet Jessy today randomly in a neighborhood I was working. I just got done watching the first road 2 recovery the same day I met him. I felt like it happened for a reason I just wish I watched this video before. Thank you Jessy for taking the 5mins to talk to me, you are an inspiration and you helped me out more then you know today.
American Badass!!!!! I have been a Motocross and Supercross fan and enthusiast for decades. Didn't know the whole story. My heartfelt wishes for his recovery. Extremely motivating. What an attitude!!!!!
I sobbed watching this. That corner at Unadilla is where I watch the races. I stopped watched moto for a couple of years after this because I hated the sport for what it did to Jessy. I'm glad to see he still battling.
We met Jessy at hangtown. He talked with my daughter and signed all of her stuff. You are an awesome guy Jessy. Cant wait to see the video of you walking on your own!
Man, I just had neck surgery 2 1/2 months ago and I was on the rebound until I slipped off a 4 inch high stool which put me back to square one. I was so bummed out until I watched this, while the pain is intense, i'm still walking and i'm grateful for that. Jesse's attitude is inspiring and the people he has around him are genuine human beings. The sponsors could've all moved on to the next guy, but they still helped out where they could which say's a lot about their values. Thank you for the inspiration bro, and all the best for 2019.
Man..So Inspiring. I was Honored to meet Jesse a few years back at a Local fundraiser deal for him..near Home. All I could say was Never give up..and he Agreed he would not. Obviously by this the young Man has so much Heart and drive to make the very best of his setback..I can't say enough how Inspring that is.. Life has challenges for alot of people..myself included, but you gotta fight thru it. So Thank You for that reminder here. I Hope to see you again sometime, and all the Best to you, Emily and your family.
My brother is the one who took the video by the sky shot when he hit that marker. They used his video it’s amazing I miss your racing jessy you were amazing
This was the most beautifully put together film I’ve ever seen. Jessy, you are so strong, it’s amazing to see you smiling the entire time. Life tried to fuck you over but you didn’t let it. It’s amazing to see you ripping the Polaris and still doing things that you love. You’re my true inspiration and thank you for being so amazing. Much love bud.
To say you are an inspiration would be an understatement, Jessy. You are still living like there is no tomorrow. I also have to say that this video is a great reminder of how tight the moto community is. Keep it up, and good luck this season!!
Great movie...a big thanks to Jessy and his family for being so candid. To all the sponsors that stuck by Jessy, that shows that they're not corporate greed mongers and the Moto community sees and remembers that. Go get that sweet life Jessy, you deserve it.
Damn I just had a Enduro accident ribs, shoulders blades cracked and t4 and t5 moved lucky for me not to mutch so It doesn't have long-term effects it's 4 weeks u haven't been riding and can't wait to go back racing. After many accidents and broken stuff people can't understand I still want ride but the truth is that I feel like I am dead when I am not able to ride my life is riding the only way to be free for me. But I am verry happy for him that he find a other way to race its in your blood or not but when you have it there is only one way to be fully happy racing 🤔good luck to you man
In the past year watching your journey had really made me realize that you have to take everything for granted, you are seriously my inspiration, I love you Jessy
Great film, made me cry, and I never do! I love how humble he and his family is, especially his wife! He’s a true warrior!Never quit! I hate ktm but I’m a big Nelson fan
First youtube video to bring a tear to my eye. Jessy, you are an inspiration to human beings. I really wish you the best for your future. If we ever cross paths, I hope to see you walk to a bar with me for a drink. Send It!
Man I may only be 14 but you inspire me to be more and push through and not give up... You are such an inspiration to me and my little brother to go out every weekend and still be thankful if we win or not. Thank you!
Jessy, you’ve been such a big role model to anyone who knows your story and it’s so cool to see you back racing! You were always my favorite supercross and motocross racer and it looks like now I’ll have a favorite racer in the 4 wheel side! Keep being you and always sending it dude!!!
Ryan Walters, great job man. Very well produced film. Jessy, you have nothing to hold you back in life with your grounded outlook. You have some BIG support rallying around you because your a winner. This film should be shown in primary schools across the world.. Take care.
Definitely the best video I´ve seen in a long time. Not easy to watch, nearly cried tbh. But seeing your smile while riding the Polaris made me smile too. You´re a great guy Jessy, thank you for inspiring me and so many other people! #goodvibesonly
I don't think the word "inspiring" does this enough justice. I mean...wow. You're a boss. It's also amazing to see how many people you have around you who genuinely love and appreciate you. Without a doubt, you'll be walking again.
Beyond inspiring man. Raced a couple amateur nationals and was at Loretta’s in 2006 and 2011. I remember watching you at A1 the night of your win and talking with my dad how damn smooth you looked that night. Looking forward to your continued recovery man 🙏🏼
San diago 2017 supercross we bought raffle tickets to support Jessy and my cousin actually won the specially painted fly helmet. That helmet is in South Africa now thats where we from…awesome documentary !!
Jesus man that gave me a lump in my throat. You have the attitude and talent to do whatever you apply yourself to. Honestly wish you all the best in your future, on and off the track! LEGEND.
How can someone dislike something that someone has put so much blood, sweat and tears into. Soo inspiring to keep pushing even when times get hard...you got my full respect for sure ✊🏼🤘🏼
A motorcycle accident left me in a chair as well. I use to ride ATV & side by sides every weekend and I lost all of that. Hopefully someday I can ride with my buddies again but at 61 it’s not look to hopeful. Your store is ver inspirational and gives me the glimer of hope we all look for. Good luck with your future endeavors!
Dude keep doing what makes you happy you are a huge inspiration to me you were my favorite Motorcross racer but now you moved on from your accident and kept your head height during the whole recovery and maybe one day you’ll be back on a bike thank you Jessey!!!
This story is so inspirational and it definitely makes you appreciate what you have. There are so many simple things that people take for granted in life. Never give up Jessy, and you will walk again!
Very inspiring, Jessy! Your attitude and perseverance are unmatched, and I wish the best for you moving forward. Been a huge fan in the Moto realm, and after.
You’re a huge inspiration to everyone! You have all the amazing things in life that most people take for granted! No doubt you'll get to where you want to go!
Jessy I truly miss watching you ride!!! I'm truly happy to see that smile on your face. You will always be one of my favorites! Congratulations on your marriage
Damn I’ve never been so close to tears in my life 😥 Your story should be recognized by everyone in sports as the story of person TRULY living life to the absolute FULLEST. We’re rooting for you Jesse.
Rare to see a video with no dislikes but this is truly amazing. Jessy, I broke my L1 L2 and L3 8 years ago on the dirt bikes. you're an inspiration to many, more than you may know. keep shredding bro. Legend in my eyes
So many emotions, I have a son that rides and we are soo.. connected, as a dad this brings up alot of emotions and philosophies about raising your precious gift ... huge props go out to Jessie and his wife and family !! And ... its huge to see companies that support our sports realities.... I know am going to buy all my shit...from Troy Lee industry now !!!! Im also going to look at the single seaters that Polaris makes !!! Our buys are a vote for the companies that do the right things !!!
Shout out to #677 Cody Williams for picking the bike up off of Jessy.
Unbelievable that no one ran out there they just stood and watched and video taped. Good ol America. I always help ppl out and half the time don't even get a thank you or they will want even more and take advantage of it.
I know him
11:34 may be the rawest emotion I’ve ever seen.....damn
Yup. You can tell they are good friends...first he calls him dumbass(in a friend way),and than you see him cry cause he got hurt. That's real friendship.
The relationship between a rider and his mechanic is unbreakable
Making the toughest grown men cry over this one. What a great video and inspiration to be appreciative and the best you can be.
this is awesome! it was hard not to cry but.. You are a big role model Jessy! Go and get that championship now! Thank you for being you.
HG#100 Vlogs me tooo
Ye If it didn’t end when it did I would have cried
I cried the entire time. What a guy. Makes me want to go change my entire career path to study robotics and go work for ReWalk.
Inspiring. No other word. Every time I watch his segments on the Moto movies I feel sad, but so happy to see he's feeling optimistic. Good luck Jessy!
Troy Lee said it best- "We need to do what we love". You can't break a strong spirit.
Well done dude, I know how hard it is to find something besides racing dirtbikes. In 2014 december I also had an accident during supercross in Germany where I broke my back and put me in the wheelchair. I know what you went trough! Nice to see you found something again, I know how important this is. Goodluck on your next career!
How you doing brother ?
Serious props to Polaris for stepping up to the plate and giving a racer vet a second chance. I have never owned a polaris but you have just won a customer when I do. If you treat your athletes this well, I can only imagine how well you treat your staff in creating a superior made product. This was an amazing doc.
if someone disslikes this idk whats going on on there mind. You‘re such an inspiration. pin it to win it
Back Stone well there's always gotta be one dickhead.
Damn, 14 people now? What's wrong with people?
My son raced with Jessy all through mini cycles, he was always one of the fastest kids on the track. Great kid with a great family, I would give anything for him to walk again and race mx.
You are a strong man Jessy. Great video. We all love what you are doing.
Such an amazing story and video I had chills the whole time
I wanted to watch it twice definitely the most inspiring story I’ve ever seen such a legend
Such a legend. Always will be 🗡
Going through two knee surgeries myself and having difficult rehabs all I can say is I have tremendous respect for this guy. God bless ya Jessy!
Freak accidents can happen anywhere; falling down the stairs, jumping in the pool, driving a car, ect. don't be scared of life and do what you love. Jessy you are so inspiring to everyone and we all need to give our 100% all the time! 💪🏼
What a badass!! Never stop racing
Wow, this is a powerful documentary. I remember the day of your horror crash at the outdoors. I caught it on RUclips as someone had captured it.....sort of.

I miss Jessy Nelson. I hope life is going great for him now. Class act and a good dude. If you see this, you still have tons of fans and we love ya
Laughed, cried, smiled, cheered, and cried again. awesome video about a great couple. Jessy and Emily. Rock on!
Who ever dislikes this has no life honestly
Honestly, I don't cry a lot but I couldn't hold it back here. Sorry. Also it is so impressive how you became pro after your thumb injury, even more astonishing! I never knew that.
Best video I have watched in my 51 years of life 👊🏻For the 20 thumbs down individuals...you are some miserable people.
Not only is this video a testament to the human spirit and how it refuses to be broken despite being beaten down and left to die in the muck, but also the importance of having incredible people behind you, whether it's parents, friends, wives, husbands, etc when you're in the process of rebuilding yourself stronger and better than you were before!

This young man is a bad ass and I'll always be a fan!!
Tears of Sadness. Tears of Happiness. Totally Inspirational!!! Go Get 'em Jessy!!!
A huge THANK YOU to the people at Polaris for stepping up to this. I followed Jessy's moto career and will continue to follow this new chapter.
Super stoked to hear you're gonna be racing again! You should definitely vlog that stuff, I'd watch in a second. This video kicked ass
If someone has limitations, that person is not as good as he, or she, can be. Kudos for never giving in and living life on your terms. #JN13strong
I've been missing seeing him ride... There's no one like him that's for sure! Such an inspiration. Can't wait to see him dominating on four wheels!
Having lost my brother to complications of a broken back, I was more than happy to make donations to the cause. Glad your making things happen and living the life you want in a positive way.
Amazing story big fan of Jessy in Moto and now on RZR 👍 never give up.
don’t stop being you jessy you are a great role model and an even better person
This was hard to watch without getting emotional. Jessy you're a badass.
I have never met you, Jessy, but I have thought about that day ever since and shed tears about it.
I was very lucky to meet Jessy today randomly in a neighborhood I was working. I just got done watching the first road 2 recovery the same day I met him.
