As a cancer survivor, Brian, this had me tearing up. Your selflessness is absolutely incredible. You use your influence and reach for good, and to help others. Words can’t describe, man. You’re just such a good dude. If you’re ever in the Madison, Wisconsin area, passing through, I want to meet you and hug you. Thank you for what you do.
Congrats on beating cancer 👏👏 glad you're still here, and glad your still out there doing what you love 👍
First of all thanks for sharing your story. Thanks for for the love expressed here as well. This was one of the first times I’ve ever done anything light this. It felt really GOOD. I think it’s a man thing but anytime I do something that has purpose behind it I get fulfillment out of it. Sometimes that’s showing someone how to fish. Other times it’s just speaking to a random stranger about the weather. I never realized how much I get from giving until I got older.
Brian! Man I followed you for the fishing, the entertainment and the tips! After your intro in this video, man it hit me! I am a stage 4 cancer fighter and fairly new bass fisherman. I bought myself a fishing kayak and hit the CA Delta as often as I can! I started following you because I thought you were a cool dude and I enjoy watching you fish and now I know you’re also a great human being! Thank you Brian!
At 27 after being married for 4 years I was diagnosed w/ testicular cancer. As our churches summer camp started that summer my hair started to fall out due to the chemo, so I had some
other youth ministers and friends shave my head bc cancer had taken my summer but I wasn’t going to let it take my hair. Being bald wasn’t a big deal but I saw many others who were next to me getting chemo often in tears over losing their hair. For some it may seem silly but it really effected some cancer patients. I’m 49 and now have beat 2 cancers and told I’d be dead so many times😂😂. The trauma that comes with cancer can be overwhelming and if having a full head of hair eases some of that it’s worth every haircut!! Appreciate ya B!!
B's mind was circling from start to finish.... Always real
My mom is a cancer survivor. One of the mental struggles she was dealing with was her own vanity. She didn't consider herself a vain individual, at all. She didn't wear makeup unless it was a special occasion, even lipstick. But when she lost her hair...she couldn't make herself not be subconscious about it, no matter how hard she tried to not care, and that tore her up.
To some, it's just a simple gesture they make because they wanted to make a change in their lives and chopped off all their hair. Figured they had it and were just going to throw it away anyways, so may as well donate it, not realizing that the free wig somebody gets from it might just give somebody the spark they need to keep fighting. The confidence to get out of their bedroom and remember why they might want to stick around for a bit longer.
While writing this novel of a comment, you repeatedly thanked people for leaving comments. No, sir. Thank YOU. Because someone donated their hair, my mom was able to have confidence. The difference in her attitude was night and day. Granted she was a redhead, so I, unfortunately, never got to see her with dreads, somebody's mother, father, child, or even somebody who doesn't have anybody else, will appreciate that more than most will ever know. Being able to have a slice of normalcy when nothing in your life is normal is priceless.
The universe is pretty funny man. That one person, song, etc will pop a thought into your mind somewhere, and eventually it will reverberate until it clicks. It's wild. I'm glad you made this video, I'm glad you said what you did. You really absolutely did something beautiful in this video. My wife beat cancer and during her process she lost her hair, and we had bought a few different wigs, and it helped her worry about one less thing during our day to days. Now before she lost her hair, we sat down and discussed the decision to take her hair by her own hand, and keep her power, vs losing it bit by bit and feeling helpless. We did a photo shoot and everything, what a beautiful strong, powerful woman looks like when she goes to battle. Not everyone has that and it's absolutely tougher on other folks. Once my wifes hair started growing back after her chemo, I started growing mine, going to keep growing it. At that donation length, cut it just for that, and keep growing it out. Awesome video man !!!
As a husband I’m always interested in what your family thought of your decision. It’s always nice to hear the lessons our kids and spouses learn or their feedback. #ProudOfYouBruh 💪🏾
Brian, I donated mine 3 years ago. Havent started again yet, but plan on it. Stay real, keep up what you're doing, stay safe on the water and God Bless
Ha! Had me all messed up initially with those aerial shots. I'm like, "that ain't the Potomac!"
Videos like this one started is a perfect example of why I watch you bro. Cancer runs in my family. I'm doing what I can to avoid it. Generous people like you, donating something as simple as dred locks to help out cancer victims and others. It says a lot about you as a person. The videos with your kids bridge fishing. I believe you had shaved recently too. Respect and appreciation. 🙏😎🎣
Do not need to get anyone approval. You did an awesome thing!!! I can tell you are good hearted person. That's why I follow your channel.
That was a wonderful donation that you gave to that person ,God bless you
It’s been a good experience!
You're a good man, BLat. Funny how those little ideas percolate down until they become reality
Brother -You are the real deal, no matter what tou do. So many layers to BLat.
Brian, I'm a fan from México, man... I'm touched... Thank you!!
"BIG" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you are a great brother. GOD BLESS YOU.
I was wondering why, I commented on one of your pics on IG asking. Don’t be scared to say it on here bro, God put that thought in your mind to do that. That’s a blessing✊🏾
Cancer is a touching topic for me. Runs in my family heavy & wife had it when we were in high school, Dad passed from it 9/3/13.
Seeing some crispy J’s on bass boat makes me so happy! ❤
Donated 11.5 inches recently. Didn't start with that as the goal, either. I was just going through a hard time and stopped taking care of myself. My dad was battling cancer, so eventually I knew I wanted something good to come out of letting it go that long. Been a year now since he's been gone, and recently decided I'd get back into fishing like we used to as a way to heal when I found you and your channel. But hey, good things can come out of bad situations. Can't say I think like that every day, but today is ok.
I love this! Thanks for sharing your story here. As of recent I’ve found a happy place in giving. My favorite RUclips vlogs are ones where I give in some type of information in a creative way. I finally realized that’s my space.
Nice video the best part was the first half about your haircut. It shows why you are truly the champ 🏆
Word of advice from a man with a little wisdom. That got his wisdom from a lot older people. When a total stranger say something like that. It could be the the Holy spirit telling them to suggest that to you. Brother I'm so glad you decided to donate your hair. As for someone like myself that had a kidney donated to by a total stranger just by someone els throwing it across there attention. I'm so grateful. Goid job on the tournament.
Man I love hearing stories like this. It’s amazing to think we can literally give parts of our body to other so they can live and get still live and thrive. That’s so wild when you really sit and think about it.
I cut my locs off recently and saved them (not sure why at the time)… now I know what I’m doing with them. Thanks for sharing 💯
Just found you and I love the way you think, keep fishing never stop.
how tf are you so naturally well spoken and normal lol, you the man BLat
Wow! B Latt… now I know I really like you now!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽🙏🏽
Your a GREAT spirited person! When your in the Jacksonville Florida area hit me up. I always tell my wife ALL about you! We will take you to dinner place of your choice.
Awesome stuff, thanks Bro!
Amen brother 🙏🏼 that was beautiful.. we should all encourage each other to do good works.. keep letting that Light shine B 👊🏼☝🏼
Yep, that’s something Brian Latimer would do. Excellent! 👍
Sir, you are an awesome human being. Thanks for sharing.
Nice work bro. Man I needed you to fish the long dock on the other side of the marina. Or the Duck blinds on the left when coming into the creek. Next year bro. 🤛🏾🤛🏾
Very Cool ! I applaud you for having a heart to help others . If everyone did Something, the World would be a much better place.
My pops had long hair for years, when he would get it cut he would always donate it. Not a man of many words but he was a man of action.
Just enjoy catching bass. Live it up man. You made love bass fishing and win lose or draw I will have a rod in my hand
great video sir- well done for supporting the cause
This is why we all support you man! 👊
Good stuff...at some point we ALL need to start paying it forward.
You are a better man then most. 👊
Very moving and powerful beginning to your video B-Lat! Hats off to you sir!
Thanks you for the love and kind words.
And the beginning of your video shows that you have a heart of gold there aren't many people in this world that have a heart like you you have awesome spirit
Thanks man! I wish I could take credit for it but I was inspired by others.
We keep supporting you!!!
Glad you made this I had no ideal they donated locks...
This is why I have followed you since the first video I saw. I have nobody I know dealing with those unfortunate situations. I just want to thank you for being real!!
Appreciate the love
God places on our hearts to do unique things in life! Love it! 🙏🙏🙏
I met you at the bass pro event in Knoxville Tennessee. It really amazed me how much of a standup guy you are. Thanks for reaffirming that! My hats off to you! My mom lost her hair with cancer, sadly passed away, but she got a wig and completely changed her attitude!!
I personally like your hair in this video. But I completely understand why you grew it out and respect you for helping someone. My wife did the same thing a few years ago. You are a awesome person and your 3 years of growing your hair will make someone in need very happy. Keep doing you brother and never stop making these amazing videos. A lot of us truly appreciate your work.
You’re a stand up dude!
The world needs more men like B Lat
High praises Brian. My youngest brother is in the program to donate his hair similar to the reasons you spoke of. At some stage of his life he like yourself was enlightened to the need and he was growing his hair long as a lifestyle so why not do it for a cause.
I wish I had known about this earlier in life. I’m older now so my hair isn’t as aggressive as it used to be 🤣. But I’d do it again. It does take some patience but I would do it again.
Man that was an inspiring story and I had gotten used to you with the locs. Keep doing YOU!!!
Make it simple....You are a good man......Thank You ❤
Simple is ALWAIS BETTER
Your a good man B Lat!
Let me start by saying your blessed and you have a big heart, to be where your at it’s not easy for us as color people and for you to give as much as you do your blessings is just going to grow even more, when I started fishing you was one of the first people I followed on RUclips I didn’t know to much on how to fish for bass to teach my kids but you help with that so thank you for all that you do
Good Man B-Lat!.. My mother went through cancer and had to deal with the loss of her hair and this hit home for me! Appreciate you using your platform to help others.
Hey you handsome guy with your new haircut! Yess you had to do this video! Your dreads where pretty amazing and fitted you good! The fact that you committed doing that not for looks but charity! 🙏❤ what a nice thing to do! ❤👌👊👍❤️🙏
You're the best! It was enlightening experience. I wish I had the space to REALLY share all I learned in this process. This lead me to all types of light bulb moments. It also made me learn how to stand up for myself and my culture. I learned about empathy. I learned about self care. I gave but I received so much.
@@BrianLatimerFishing by the way nice grind on the tournament! Deep thoughts. Loved it ! 👌👍
You a good man Brian. Good luck in the tournament!!!!
Thanks, you too! This is one of my favorite fisheries
@@BrianLatimerFishing Brian I’m about 40 miles from Your hometown LYMAN S C THANKS FOR REPLYING GOOD LUCK
I would go ,but there is no right answer, there could be a tank in there. Good luck my friend I'm rooting for you
You're a good dude B-Lat!!
Awesome for you to do that man, for real. That sort of thing may not seem like a big deal to some...but its huge for others. I personally dig the short hair, now go grow it again and donate some more. Keep up the grind bro.🤜🤛
I fish weekly tournaments every Wednesday out of hope springs marina. Also have a camper next to the marina too, wish I would’ve ran into you!
Great video love the channel I always try and keep my head down and stick to the plan
Man I grew my hair out for probably about 4 years and decided to get a hair cut and the barber told me about an organization that uses people's hair to make wigs for cancer patients... I never knew that was even a thing until then but I thought it was a pretty cool cause so it wasn't a hard decision. Great video as always keepem coming brother!!!
I wish I had known a long time ago. I’ll do it again as long as I have hair. That’s questionable as I age🤣
Gotta comment on this. I have been growing my hair out for 2 years now with intentions of donating it. My wife's cousin has a little girl who has alopecia. I won't say I've been struggling with commitment, but I'm getting sick of it. It's so long and thick and it's difficult to manage because it has so much body and wave naturally. Anyway, thanks for reminding me that's it's not about what it looks like to me or how it feels to me. I came across your content as I've recently returned to bass fishing. Found out you were an SC native so I was like, hey this guy know my region; what's he fishing. Keep doin what you're doing.
Bro!!!! Listen, I SEMI HATED IT!!! It was always touching me. I used to sit at the salon for 3 hours to get it twisted every 6-8 weeks and so much more. It was not convenient. Everything doesn’t have to be easy and convenient for me. A masculine life has purpose at every corner. This experience had so many layers to it that most of my viewers probably wouldn’t be willing to listen to. I wouldn’t encourage anyone especially boys and men to try it.
You are the real man out there. You
You never think about your self
Rita’s Custard is best I’ve cream around by far!
GOD GOT YOU, PEACE BE STILL, AND FOCUS, U GOT THIS, BELIEVE IT, and RECEIVE IT!
Coldstone is FAR better than Dairy Queen! Great video man!
You got it brother trust God got you
Welp. B Lat became a sorcerer. He opened up a temporal rift and received inspiration from his fans from a point in the future. Congratulations everyone. We have achieved a form of time travel.
Your our hero anyway you slice it!
Happy Fourth of July 🇺🇸 from Georgia 🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟😃😃😃
Top fisherman big ups from 🇬🇧 my friend learning loads from your vids to take in to my perch fishing.

Great introduction 👍👍
I thank you for what you did life is about helping others I have a plumbing business and a person called yesterday that had a sewer back up so I went out and cleared it he is a navy veteran on a fixed income and going through Colin cancer and I never changed him I do that a lot for seniors. Even though I could use the money so thank you. I’m looking for some more videos with your boys Racing
Your a great man Mr. B Lat. I hope to meet you one day. You couldn't have explained it any better. Also those river fish are MEAN!!
That's awesome Brian! I donate my hair to Locks Of Love for children suffering from hair loss. Such an easy way to help someone and restore a bit of confidence and sense of self! I love to see content creators using their platform to bring awareness to worthy causes. Keep up the great work!!!
You the man B-Lat
Man great video thanks for the inspiration. On to the next.
Thank You !
Good luck! Keep your head down, keep fishing.

I love your video's bro. Good vibes only.
That is awesome of you to donate your hair to charity, Brian! Damn, miss the cut by less than a pound! Wish you more luck on the next one!
You are one class act Brian! Best of Luck to you in the future!
You’re a good man B Lat….
HELPING IS DOPE !
5:52 had to stop the video. Much respect to you B. With the job I have now over the last few years I have time to spend watching all kinds of videos and I really enjoy all sorts of content from the Dustin Connell, Jacob Wheeler, Adrien Avenna, MDJ, Swendel. BASS, FLW, MLF whatever. But watching your videos, I love your heart. I learn new stuff. I just really enjoy your content. I'm at a loss for words but I hope to run into you one day, maybe when I'm down on Santee or Clarks Hill or maybe you'll make your way up North and catch you around one of our local lakes. Good luck sir and you are an inspiration. God Bless
I hope to meet you one day as well. Thanks for the support. I hope my videos are always valuable to you!
Ooh, decisions, good topic. Each one affects you or others. Selflessness is the key to a well lived life. Just my opinion.
I didn't get the sandwich to a homeless on a selfie vibe. Just the love and care for others. That's dope!
Great intro bro !! Great video 🎣
Interesting vid as usual. Very Nice gesture with the hair. A positive thing to do no doubt! Now back to the fishing :) Seems like a lot of your tournaments...lots of smaller fish from the dock areas. You always have quantity but sometimes not as much bigger fish. If your true goal is to win or do better in some tourneys, To get something different, you have to do different. I would recommend doing what you do for 2/3rds of the time but dedicate 1/3rd of your time to bigger fish. Maybe a 8-9" glide bait or similar. If you do same things, your results will be same. Expand your techniques and maybe, win some tournaments. There may be a few more missed cuts but that happens sometimes anyway. Go for it. I would like to see you reach your goals.
Man this is cool brother doing gods work 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
👍👍💖 Great intro.
Absolutely awesome, you're a good man.
As to fishing, just let your intuition lead you. If it's your time, you'll do it.
That shirt is epic!
Best dude in fishing right now. I enjoyed your intro
So glad you cut it!
Who cares what people think! Great job! Love your stuff! Keep grinding!
