@@TheHeavensFellen do you know what the time stamp is?
He still sounds so wounded and scared after all these years.
Of course he is! Anyone would be.
To think it happened 22yrs ago ,they said it feels like it happens last week !!!it’s a sad life n they’re almost 40 years old now
And they will never ever get over it...
I think you misinterpret him. He's just real. He's recalling all these moments that he lived through so personally back then. It's wonderful he found healing in helping others and going on mission. What struck me were how he prayed. How he needed to be WITH people who understood. I think that's like God. Emmanuel, God with us. Jesus wept. I think he's ok. He even said it doesn't dominate his thinking any more. I knew a student in my year who committed suicide and it still can affect me. And that was 50 years ago!
When he started crying I just wanted to hug him

I think the fire alarm probably saved a lot of lives.
Actually, it killed more then it saved.
@@cloudcraft7153 BS, it evacuated the building. They would have had corridors full of easy targets otherwise.
@@lonelylantern9135 no, the fire alarms caused the massive crowds on the 3rd floor of the parkland building, causing everybody on the 3rd floor to die
@@lonelylantern9135 and you do realize, people evacuating would cause easy targets in the halls, right?
@@cloudcraft7153 You are unrealistic. The alternative was far worse. The alarm reduced the shooters options massively. It probably reduced the duration of the murder spree also. It was a brilliant thing to have done, and I hope many more think to do the same should, God forbid, another school shooting happen.
That's a lot for a young kid to go through.
He’s so compassionate 💛 bless his heart
If he feels like that, imagine how the people in the library felt!! 💙🙏
After all these years, the story is still so terrifying to hear.
I like how he said show more love. This really hit me. Will said some very sweet and powerful words in this video. Everything he said was relatable and reminded me of something I have experienced and it has made me feel like I am not alone. I agree, we live in a materialistic society, which causes people to not show passion and love. It's very sad. It got me thinking of what I should work on in the way I treat people and how my actions might affect others. Thank you Will! I wish you and your family and friends love and happiness. You deserve it. Best regards.
Thing is you can show all the love in the world and there will still be people who won't accept it or in some people can't accept it and that's when stuff like this happens
TheDolphingirl20 doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try
Will Beck, what an amazing man & Brother In Christ. "Healing Through Service"....I love that. Thank you for this testimony of love & faith. It was very touching.
It's crazy how survivors always have a moment from that day that they tell, where they know it was God that saved them.
Rachel seems to be the only exception, however, Rachel wrote in her diary a year before the shooting, that she would only be on earth another year. I think she and Jesus agreed she would leave, and leave a legacy for His glory.
Rachel is one of the reasons I found Jesus.
Rose K I’m glad Rachel’s example could help lead you on the path to Jesus
They weren’t saved. The people who were killed weren’t guilty of anything. The only reason these people survived is because they didn’t get hit by bullets or the bullets didn’t cause fatal injuries. Religion makes people so unbelievably delusional and blind it’s concerning
I see the point of view of both you and Dylan. Humans will never understand
Dylan lol agreed.
Maybe it’s not true but if it brings people peace and hope. If that’s what helped people cope with what happens then I’m glad.
What a beautiful man. ❤️🙏🏼 Bless you Will
❤️
@@willbeck8189 it’s you... I think about this day all the time. Sending love from Vancouver Island
@@willbeck8189 ...may I ask how tall you are??❤❤
who would dislike this
@@luke-lq9yd wow so funny and original
This poor guy 😕 everything happened all at once.. prayers to him and anyone else in his situation.
Very touching. I’m very sorry for your traumatic tragedy.
Columbine was one of the first of literal decades of highly publicized mass shootings. It breaks my heart that these victims kept being reminded of their trauma by all the new mass shootings
Every single student that has been through this I admire them for their bravery and being able to talk on camera and in public about what horror they have went through! I don't know if I could do that because this is extremely personal for them. My heart goes out to all of the survivors of these horrific acts of violence!!
I think it very much DID define you! But, you let it define you in the best of ways. Instead of your trauma keeping you in a bubble, and shut off, you let it define what you wanted to do for others. That's amazing, and shows strength.
I love that you prayed and called out for God. ♥️
I’m sorry you had to go through this. I think you are an amazing human - God bless.
What a wonderful, brave soul. He does have a full and joyful life notwithstanding the tragedy he's been through and that is the greatest victory of all against the evil that was committed that day. I bow to his wisdom and I will come back to hear his words again and again. God bless him and his family.
This is a great guy
What a grounded young man. His Faith got him through that horrible tragedy. Bless him and all those that were there.
I commend him for being able to go back to school. There's no way I could have done it, it would have been way too traumatizing.
Theres so much wisdom in this. What a brave guy.
bless you will much love from United Kingdom
What a seriously good man. Will, you are truly a man of God. Your children are so fortunate to have such an amazing guy as their dad.
His account has been one of the hardest for me to watch. All the stories are horrific, but I could truly feel the impact in this man ..from inside his soul. 😢💔
Stay strong Will!!! We are all still in your corner
Thanks!
❤️ God Bless you Will.
Will l think you are an Angel and l thank you for sharing, our lives don't have much in common but your words have touched me and motivate me to just be out there for people no matter what they are going through, we all have something to bring each other. Thank you for being so strong.
What a beautiful soul he is. He carries that pain with him. So sad. His family is beautiful. God Bless you sir. Thank you for sharing your story. ❤️🙏
Powerful testimony
God bless you Will. Such an inspiration
The sad thing is that he will live with these memories forever.
Such a beautiful soul..who walks with the Lord
God bless you will. This is the first video I've watched that made me cry. Your an amazing person. Always stay strong under gods faith. He was with you that day, as you already know. God bless.
Thank you for sharing this, Will! Very powerful and moving!
Thank you for sharing your story! My heart is always with you all!!!
Thanks, God bless!
Watching this is a blessing. Thank you for your heart and your resilience. God bless you.
My God, poor guy. You can see in his face as he tells his story, he's reliving the experience over again.
7:01 ☺️ how perfect is that..You have such a beautiful family Will you are so lucky to have each other..and I hope someday I will find someone like you to make my own family with the same big heart..God bless you🙂
Pegz Τd thanks! Best of luck to you!
You greek? By the way, Will you are so fucking strong! Such an inspiration man, such an inspiration
I think you are very brave and admirable...I can't imagine what you have and continue to go through. Blessings to you...
best quote ever "im gonna go miss it"
Not sure why this came into my feed today in 2020... But YOU sir are a true inspiration and HERO for the story you share and the lessons you are teaching! Everyone should watch this!
I hope his sister made it out okay… Rest in peace to everyone who died that day.
Thank you for sharing your story Will. It blessed me greatly.
God bless you! You are an inspiration to so many.
He is an example of inner strength...thank you so much for sharing
Thank you for this wonderful testimony. I'm so glad I happened on to it and watched it. Keep up the good work.
Very well said, Mr. Beck.
Thanks for sharing.
I remember being in college and the whole thing watching the news non stop. It bothered me so bad even though I wasn’t there. These ppl won’t ever get over this.
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing!
A very powerful testimony, I can see how you go back to when you were that age at that time and its awful. I hope you are finding peace now. Lots of love and good thoughts XXX ❤
So inspiring!
God has so much MORE for you. I cannot imagine the grief on that scale. I remember another interview you did you said you got to make things right with Dan after picking on him a little. I think that was a God thing, he gave you that time. And that probably meant the world to Dan. Keep pushing, keep going. This life is temporary and short, you’ll get to see everyone again. And grief will exist no more. That’s a promise God gives us that we can hope in. Praying for you Will.
Eve Olivarez definitely a God thing! Thanks and God bless!!
God bless this kind loving man. So hard to comprehend being so young and witnessing a fellow student being shot or experiencing running for your very life.
What a sweet kind caring man! So gentle and loving! His heart is full of gods love! I was a freshman supposed to be a sophomore that year. I remember this like it was yesterday. High school just started for me and it wasn’t the same after.
Thank You for your courage! May The Lord Jesus Christ continue to work through you!
This is incredibly moving. 😓💕
God bless you
God bless you. I’m sorry what happened to you and your classmates. I was 13 when it happened, but it still scared me as a student. I also thought about Columbine when I was a high school substitute teacher because I needed to know how to keep my students safe. Again, I’m so sorry what happened to you.
This is a true Blessing, Praise God, God protected him, good thing you Believe in God.. What a Testimony, Thank you for Sharing, God Bless you + your Family 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
This is beautiful
Thanks for sharing .... I found this helpful and comforting
A great message
God bless you
Youve come a long way, sir!! God bless you!!❤❤
Thank you for your story and words of encouragement. Your family is beautiful and God will keep that great joy coming.
I honestly feel so bad for the people who had to experience school shootings, it is such a serious subject that not a lot of people talk about, and if news company’s talk about them they focus more on the murderers and not the victims, and the victims are the ones that have died or suffered. I think that they should focus more on the victims who lost there life’s and there families, and also school is a place where people should feel safe but with this subject it can make it very hard for them to feel safe xxx #stopschoolshootings xx
See how he's saying he didn't want to help himself, only distract himself away from it by helping other people. While that is great, the most important thing is to dig within yourself and heal your own pain. Not run from it
I hope he's doing well
What a nice young man
This guy's story is awesome
Job WELL Done Officers !!! I APPLAUD You !!!
May God bless you Will, you are amazing. Trust that God has plans, part of that is how you are living your life sharing your story with others is powerful.
What a beautiful man, so sorry for u to go through what u went through. And your right everyone has pain just different pain. Enjoying life is the key for sure. If u dont like it change it simple. We can others in that shooting cant thankyou for your kindness god bless
Bless this brilliant young man and his kind, loving heart.
Bless him ♥️
God bless this man.
Thanks!
@@willbeck8189 Thanks for sharing man. God bless you indeed
Will Beck you are so strong, thank you for sharing your story. God bless 🤍
I don't agree with quite a few comments. This guy is just real. He's worked through it, and is still doing so. His vulnerability touches me. "We all have hurt"... "Be kinder"... "Think about others"... Good advice!
God bless you Will.
Such a beautiful person. Sending all my love to Will
Thanks! I need it today!
Hi will, First, Thankyou for your service, you are a fabulous example of a survivor rather than victim. I do not mean any disrespect to any one who has been or is a victim. I do know how both feel.
I wondered iiiif I may ask you how things changed within the school, especially the jock vs not jock. I am from England and our terminology is a little different. I really wish you love and also send you a huge mum hug xx
Elle shoot me a message on instagram
What a beautiful person you are even at the horrible moment you were in you found your way through My heart goes out to you
This man is a beautiful soul!
God Bless you Will! 🙏🙏🙏

Cops sat outside for two hours

Will is such an amazing and a strong man. Bless him.
Man, what a loving human being he is.
The pain will never go away. You just learn to live a new kind of normal.
🖤❤️ I cried with you.
Megan Erives thanks, Megan!
@@willbeck8189 Me too with tears.✌ My StepDad was killed that day.😇 💙 Hugs to you Will.👍
I am so sorry for your pain
OMG very heartbreaking you can feel his pain watching this cause I sure do. I didn’t sleep for months seeing this on the news when I was in 8th grade the footage of the shooting used to be on RUclips till they took it down I was traumatized
What an amazing young man
I wonder how he's doing now. Poor guy! Sending him healing vibes and virtual love!
