Entrepreneur and former firefighter Keith Young was diagnosed with a 9/11 related cancer after working at Ground Zero. Sadly he passed away before he could see his invention Cup Board Pro take off, but his children continued his legacy.

The daughters crying is one thing...but the cold, numb look on the son's face...true pain 😔
Yea when I was looking at the son you could see the pain all over him.
He has to be strong
it's hard to allow yourself to feel when if you do its pain
He has to be the rock that his sisters can rely on. It's a ton of pressure. I can guarantee you, he may look numb, but he's got a lot he's holding back on the inside.
@@Dakarn well said
When he said he was a widower also I began to cry. Poor kids lost both their parents.
Those kids are strong, because of how strong their Dad was.. must of been a great Human
Just terrible. Good for them for having theirs dads legacy live on.
I was 2 weeks shy of my 15th birthday on 9/11/01. I remember the planes hitting both towers. Out of all my memories I remember the men and women whom didn’t think twice and helped strangers. Your grandfather is a true hero. God bless him. And god bless and thank you to all the men and women who helped NYC when we were at our lowest. It’s my buildings. The Twin Towers will forever live with us.
This shark tank story was beautiful. I’m glad they realize sometimes is not all about money. They helped these kids and also they showed the world they can be kind hearted on national tv.
God bless you all.
their dad left his kids with more than just a memory of him. But a product that would financially take care of them for the rest of their lives...
I lost mine when I was 17.
So sad they lost both of their parents 😢. I’m glad they got a generous deal.
I agree. I knew that they would get a deal. They had to.
This is one of the most wholesome clips on shark tank.
R.I.P to their parents and all 9/11 Victims 🕊
My grandfather was a firefighter for 38 years in NYC. When 9/11 occurred, he had been retired for 14 years. He was 79 years old when the terrorist attacks happened, but wanted to go down to the city to assist in any way that he could. His health was not good, and we had to almost physically restrain him from going, for the sake of his own health. He had so many physical maladies at that time, the worst of which was his heart. First responders don't do anything because they have to. They step up to the plate because they WANT to. They risk their lives to save the lives of strangers. Whereas most people run from tragedy and danger, they run TOWARDS it. It takes a special person to be a first responder. I am proud that my Grandfather was one of those people, putting his life on the line each and every day that he worked for people that he did not even know.
@@TheVerbalVolley respect
100% one of the most moving stories ive seen on shark tank. I love when these families get a good deal.
@@TheVerbalVolley ur grandfather sounds like a amazing man
Don’t forget service members and police officers, some will give all and all will give none
Daymond has a gold heart...He is the most one who got moved and he always loves to help people
I thought a lot different of him after seeing this. Positively of course.
The offer that the sharks came back with was the most moving thing I’ve ever heard of or seen! I’m star struck. The fact these kids were able to come together and work together after they lost both their parents is amazing. Me and my brother fight none stop.
Tell you're brother you love him. Ask if he feels good mentally. I just lost my sister from suicide a week ago. It hurts not to be able to hear her laughter again. R.I.P. Ashlee. ❤😭🙏
@@MichaelYT22 Best of luck Michael. You are loved, too.
I wish though they invested it in the kids education
@@aminb8935 I bet they’ll help them along- maybe build the business eventually sell it w/them still holding a stake in it? it and they’d have a college fund? They’re the sharks! I think they’ll
Come up together w/an even better plan!
My heart hurts for these kids yet they are so strong. Your parents are angels watching over you now. God bless you all.
Aloha traveling brother 🙏
💚
My exact feelings after watching
@@SuperHassan2001 yes
Just my opinion - This was one of the most moving episodes in Shark Tank and Sharks made the most wonderful offer. Sending my prayers to all the families that lost their dear ones due to any reason related to 9/11 as well as those who braved cancer. Special prayer for these three kids. May their parents live through them
This one definitely takes the cake but the farmer one was a good one too
Agree totally.
The thing that makes me happy about this is I know Christian, Keira and Kaley personally. Keith and his wife Beth were very close family friends with my mom and her family, and we even own a copy of Keith’s cookbook in our house. I love this episode because not only do I get to see my family, but I get to see them continue his legacy and I couldn’t be more than happy for their success. Phenomenal episode, so moving.
thanks for sharing :)
Are they Millionaires now?
@@dmgfoto4508most likely
1:42 is the most heartbreaking moment, hearing Keira try keeping her voice together.
It was indeed. I hope they're okay now.
Yup, that voice crackle broke me.
3:02.
I bought 2 of these boards...1 for my brother and 1 for my mom. I think I'm gonna buy 1 more for a friend. I am willing to support this family by any means. I can't imagine what these children are going through. Every time I watch this, I start to cry...this is very deep.
Having lost both my parents by the age of 20 I can totally understand. I truly believe I and they have guardian angels watching over them. Well deserved and their parents had a hand in this success
I’m so sorry to hear that.. I lost my mom to cancer when I was 17, and was completely devastated. I couldn’t imagine both parents. Prayers for you and anyone else who has lost a parent.
Lost my mom at 15, I can't imagine not having a father anymore. He's my rock. Bless you!
Sorry man. Hopefully you’re ok and doing well.
"Who's ready to make our dad's dream a reality with us." When I heard the youngest child voice break . It really hurt my heart 💔😢🥺. My heart hurts for all of these kids. They lost both of their parents, that is a type of pain that will never go away. I will be praying for these kids 🙏🏾.
That got me too😭 she’s so strong for doing that pitch so soon after her loss I could never have done that. I called both my parents after watching this 😂

I remember the dad, Keith Young, from the Chopped Father's Day episode. His story was inspirational then. This is beyond. I need to get this product today and support this family!
SAME!
My mind was drawing a blank until they mentioned Chopped and then I remembered that episode. RIP Keith Young and all of the first responders who have died due to 9/11 illness.
I Will buy more then one 😍
I am still teary-eyed. This guys can be nurse sharks when they want to. Where can I buy this product to support these kids?
Williams-Sonoma
14 years of episodes, they all blend together, you forget what product was on what season and who sold what to whom. But this is an unforgettable episode. The best in the show’s history
Never gets old seeing this.
I have a feeling Daymond found them off camera, as a fellow New Yorker, and offered to help them personally, if they ever need anything.
Well I mean he has to meet up with them now that they’re partners but I’m sure he’s now in personal contact with them
From how well dressed and spoken the 3 children are I can only imagine how great their parents must have been,pure class from guests and host 😇
Sharks, it was the absolute right thing to do by them, their hero dad and valiant mom. By giving them an opportunity to work with all of you these kids will go places. Thank you....
Barbara: "I really don't want to cry today, but you made me cry! and for those reason I'm out!"
Bro u savage to Barbara 😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣
When I think I'm having a rough day, life's not fair to me, someone cut me off driving or maybe I just feel grumpy: I will remember what I just saw. Their courage is inspiring. I don't remember feeling so moved by any episode such as this one. How dare I feel anything but gratitude!!!
As much as I understand how you feel, it’s not fair to discredit or invalidate what you go through. Definitely don’t stop being grateful, but you aren’t wrong for acknowledging what you go through!
Tears are flowing in my eyes rn, I can’t imagine the pain these kids went through they must be so strong. I’m glad all 5 sharks partnered together for this. May the mom and dad, and all 9/11 victims Rest In Peace.
Losing both parents when I was 21 was the harder at thing in life. I’m 25 now and getting through this episode was VERY hard.
Sorry for your loss ❤️
Stay strong
Do you have any SALES though
Since this aired, Cup Board Pro became very successful and is still successful in 2021. The kids are doing quite well also
Net worth 15 million in 2023
So what do you think about the rough times you're having now? Holy mackerel, hats off to these kids. I think they're in pretty hands now, not a bad team to be helping you out, wish them the absolute best.
I'm actually in an extremely similar situation right now. Not as young as these guys, but I'm not old either.
it was kindof inspiring to see how strong they could be while talking about their pain like that. Gives me hope that things will get better.
Yes what we go through is nothing ❤️ compared to this family ❤️❤️❤️
My situation is worse. They had good parents atleast and eachother. Many don't even have that.
@@lightingthedarkremoteviewi8086 I’m so sorry.
@@CorruptedTyrael I’m so sorry you’re going through something similar. I really wish you find some friends that can help ease your pain.
As a father, I show my highest respect to their dad. He loved the family and he will be remembered!
As someone whose lost both my parents, my dad most recently 3 months ago, this really hits home. I'm glad these kids are gonna do great in life, they are an example to follow
So sorry for your loss. Keep fighting!
This one broke me down bad. The pain these 3 kids have had to face is unimaginable. You can tell how proud they are of their Dad. He's a true American Hero! Rest In Peace.💪🏽🇺🇲
It’s amazing how strong they are to keep their composure in front of the sharks while speaking/hearing about the death of both of their parents. It takes a lot of strength to control those emotions.
Not a dry eye in the room…except for the young man. He must’ve been trying to remain stoic for his sisters by shedding his tears inside of his heart 💔. Congratulations to these kids and the benevolent sharks!👏
How does one watch this and not get teary eyed 😭😭😭 im still crying lol
Strong kids come from strong parents. Appreciate the people who give you what you don't realize you have. We remember everyone who was lost today and will never forget.
I'm actually watching this right now and I never usually comment on these kinds of things but this was the best episode for a 9/11 NY'er. I'm so happy for these kids to endure the loss they've been through and still be able to get this opportunity. I'm sure their parents would be so proud of all 3 of them. My heart really goes out to all of these families and God bless NY!!💪💪💪😎
Omg, this made me cry.... It was sad enough to hear the dad had passed away, but then the mom too... I feel sorry for them, but their parents are looking down on them and feel so proud of them! The sharks handled this amazingly.
That has me in tears! So wonderful to see all the Sharks work together to help this family. A happy moment.
I saw this episode a few years ago..cried like a baby...these kids r amazing. Bless em all
I've watched this clip several times since the original date, but yet EVERYTIME I still cry.
Got bless these kids. As someone who lost one parent very young, I could only imagine losing both at a young age.
RIP to their dad and all impacted by 9/11 and cancer 🙏
One of the most wholesome clips I've seen on shark tanks in many years.
God bless those kids. R.I.P. to their parents and all the 9/11 victims
My heart breaks for these kids and I'm so sorry for your loss 😪. I definitely feel their connection to their dad and wanting to get his legacy and product out there. I'm not crying, you're crying 😢
Their dad deserves to be remembered for years and years. What a man to overcome such horrible events and very upsetting for the kids to but that man was strong and to keep going after seeing those things in 9/11, losing his wife and then being told about having cancer and still pushing through….wow…Rest In Peace dude and thank you.
I have watched this video before and watched again and this time got more emotional . Thanks to all the those firemen, doctors, and ambulance workers. As well as military , army and navy
Does anyone realize that, that woman took responsibility for her 2 younger siblings at nineteen!! WOW!
This is absolutely heartbreaking - I’m sobbing watching this - I lost my mom to endometrial cancer last year so I feel this on a very deep level. What an amazing group of kids, going on the show to keep their dad’s dream alive
I did not want to cry today... I guess there is always tomorrow.
Such strong individuals
When you think you have it hard...
This was so emotional to watch, especially the video clip of their dad enjoying his 3 children and watching all he did with them after their mom past away.
It was heart-warming that each of the sharks went in on this together.
Both their parents are looking over their children and are super proud of what they're accomplishing in their lives. God Bless these kids and the Sharks for helping them. XO
Incredible strength by these young entrepreneurs. Good to see the sharks become more humanize by giving the young family a opportunity.
Wow. What a moving story. Glad they’ve got an amazing deal. Mad props to the sharks for all contributing to their dad’s genius idea.
Thank you for your service Mr. Young and may you and your wife Rest In Peace ! 🙏🏼 . Your spirits will live through your strong children and your amazing product !!! God Bless the Young family !
Dad is helping take care of them even after he is gone. What a fantastic individual, father, and role model for all parents
I love how the sharks jumped immediately into “we are helping this family. Let’s do this” in their conversation. It is really heartwarming to watch people. One together like this!
What beautiful kids, so much loss but they have each other. May they find happiness.
Omg 😢 I’m truly moved by these strong siblings. I can’t even imagine how hard it would be to lose your mom and then go through the same with your dad at such a young age. Heartbreaking, yet inspiring.
These are the three strongest kids I’ve ever watched in my life. To keep a smile on your face and present as well as they did… their parents did their jobs.
My heart goes out to these kids and the sharks for such a generous offer
I currently have the cutting board from the father and it is A MUST BUY! Definitely a game changer
Please buy the product and contribute to the 9/11 survivors and first responders
Holy moly, what a one two punch of a story. The Dead look of pain and anguish on the sons face is making be tear up.
To make it an even happier ending... I read that within 18 hours after this episode first aired, they made 1 million dollars in sales. This company has a net worth now of 17 million.
I think this might be the most charitable they've ever made. All the kids had was product and a story. And that story got all five sharks on board in an incredible deal. It's really amazing to see this kind of generosity
S0 sad happy,.😥 your brave firefighter father & mother would be so proud of you all beautiful 😍❤
Wow this completely heart breaking . Tears in my eyes. God bless those children. My heart breaks for them. They are so strong . Wow... I'm so happy the sharks all helped them out and donating in 20% to charity , they are amazing to people . Definitely my favourite episode on Shark Tank yet
I cried right as she spoke the pain in her voice I can relate at the end of the day he ur guardian angel and mama bear these kids are so strong look at them the worst happened and look how they lift each other up
talk about heart wrenching. that is 1 proud poppa smiling down on those kids
God bless them. I'm happy the sharks came together to show support on a GREAT product!
Daymond is my favorite shark. He’s someone that came from hard times and came from nothing and is now one of the wealthiest people in the world. And being rich hasn’t changed his core values of doing right by people. He does truly have a heart of gold.
The second they played the clip of the dad, I recognized him from Chopped. I'm devastated to hear that he passed; he seemed like an amazing man. Proud of his children for carrying on his legacy and I hope they're doing well today
Its rare a clip from Shark tank makes you cry. Godspeed to these kids.
Brave kids! Their parents sure raised them well!
Made me shed a tear. God bless them
I was crying when I was watching this those 3 have so much strength and love, and it makes me feel so happy knowing that they made their dads dream a reality
Just found this Tearful, Inspiring Share. So Grateful to have found it and purchased Firefighter Youngs' Cup Board Pro. God Bless The Young Family, Their source of strength, and the Legacy that Lives on..!!!
This makes me cry every single time I watch it. Not just because of the sad story but the beautiful way that the Sharks didn't need to even say anything to each other to know that they were all going to help them. Really beautiful and inspiring.
I’m sobbing I just can’t I’m so happy they got to make his dream a reality and even improve to it! I hope that my children and I have a relationship that they had with their parents.
Their father was a real hero , they are awesome family, good job 👏
Very cool, respectful thing for The Sharks to do. For all 5 of them to be on board with this product, just amazing. I knew there was a reason I loved this show.
So sad for them. I couldn’t imagine losing both parents. Sending them love and prayers 🥺🧿🤍
As somebody who can sadly directly relate 😞 this was awesome 👏 happy for them 🙏
I've heard so many sob stories on this show and this is the only one that truly brought me to tears. Lost BOTH their parents. So sad!
I think it was phenomenal that the Young family used their Father's promotional video the he would have used for his Shark Tank audition to demonstrate his product . Well done for the Sharks to show such genuine generosity. Best pitch and Best offer and Best Deal ever done by the Sharks. So proud of the Young Family and so Proud of the Sharks!
One of the best clips till date ❤️
All the best guys
I remember him from chopped. He was amazing! He was in there multiple times. I can’t believe it’s him who is gone. He was so distraught over his wife’s passing. Man, that sucks. I am, however, so happy that he and his wife raised beautiful children and now they are being taken care of and won’t have to worry. ❤️ Praise God!
Keith Young was one of the many heroes from the 9/11 attack disaster. My heart breaks for the children because they lost both parents.
Losing both parents at such a young age has to be the worst thing to happen to someone. I’m amazed at how composed they were. Much respect to them and their parents.
I am crying … god bless the fam
I watched their dad compete on Chopped and he had an awesome talent for cooking. He cooked with so much heart and love. I’m certain he is greatly missed by not only his children but his fire fighter brothers and sisters. 💙💙
Thank you sharks for making my day! I believe in humanity now🙏❤️
This is an amazing episode.
God bless all of you.
What a tragic but beautiful episode. I wish them nothing but the best in life, what an amazing tribute to their father 💙 that made me cry!
Must be soulcrushing losing both of your parents at such a young age... two of them aren't even adults yet. Much strength to you all
I love how the Sharks asked the children to step out for a moment, and once they did the Sharks immediately started working together to give them a great deal. Way to go Sharks. Way to go kids.
Undoubtedly my favorite shark tank episode. As sad as it is, those kids are amazing.
I cry every time I see it
The amount of respect I have for these young people is no joke at all!! All our hearts are with you! I’m incredibly sorry for your loss! ❤
This broke my heart. I lost my dad at 11 years old. This makes me feel extremely lucky to still have my Mom. 💟
I never met my dad but he died when I was six in a motorcycle accident. I'm glad that this company is worth 17 million today
I lost my dad whom I was close with the summer before my senior year in high school and it devastated me. I can't imagine what these kids went through having two parents gone at such a young age. I'm so happy the sharks rallied around them to help keep their dad's legacy alive. This has to be my favorite Shark Tank episode of all time. It brought tears to my eyes.
Even I cried when listening to their story. Thank you sharks for being so kind and supporting them
This is just what I needed to start my day 🥺❤️
That was epic! Loved the way the sharks all teamed up. Not taking a cent for their own benefit (apart from the obvious tax breaks). Good on them. That is extremely charitable and thoughtful of them!!
How can anyone not cry watching this my heart breaks for them
I wish I could hug all 3 of them. I lost my mom 13 years ago to cancer and I still struggle. Stay strong.
This brought tears to me. Those kids are so strong.
You can really feel that the parents taught the kids right. They did well.
