For someone who has been paralyzed from the waste down for the past 16 years, I find you so inspiring because I personally want to be a trucker my grandfather drove long hauls and I spent my summer with him in his truck, from they day I can remember that was going to be my dream job,but I'm forced to wait on people who waited till I was a senior in high school to help me drive
There is a video out there where a guy in a wheelchair cut out the side of his sleeper and installed a lift so that he could wheel onto and he was able to get in the truck and he drove off don't know if the truck was an automatic but it can be done
@@chrischapman7452 I would imagine there are several companies with ready to go kits to adapt big rigs. Perhaps even the factories do. At least they should. Large businesses have been seeing the value in adaptability more and more. For a small investment it opens up an entire new group of people that are intelligent, hard working, productive, capable, valuable employees.
Wth! I clicked on the video because i saw a mans foot on a steering wheel.. then come to find out he runs the farm too 👀 wow! What an idol! Keep it up!!
I’m glad this was in my recommend videos. Thanks for sharing your daily work on your farm. I know people say they can’t work because they have bad knees. They’re only in their 20’s. I sent them this to show proof there’s no excuses for not working. God Bless man!
MORNING! A centennial farm so cool! You and your Dad’s farm is so pristine!! Just Beautiful. Really good hay!! And who doesn’t love running through the car wash 😂 Great video loved every minute of it!! Have a good weekend 🌞🙋♀️
You sir, are one amazing individual. I can't even imagine having to deal with what you do on a daily basis. Very impressive how it doesn't seem to slow you down one bit. Very cool!👍
I’ve never stated this for any of the other channels that I watch but, you have been a big inspiration, motivator and a role model for me. The small things that I bitch about everyday seem like a kid complaining about not being able to open the ice cream bucket...my full respect and admiration go to you, Sir. May God bless you and your family, they are truly blessed to have you in their lives. I plan to do a 48 state road trip in the near future and would love to have the opportunity meet you and chat.
It captures the spirit when you learn that there are such courageous people like Andy Detwiler. I wish him good health, happiness and prosperity of his business!
In one respect farming is farming.... but in another it's not. Love watching videos like this.... getting a perspective of what it's like to eek out a living in agriculture for others despite our locations being drastically different making out methods, crops, and output completely different. As we say in New Hampshire.... wicked cool. Beautiful property. Love it. First generation here.... the thought of my future family being able to say this has been here a hundred years is inspiring. You helped turn my bad day into a good one. I owe ya.
Anyone who complains that they can't find a job or someone who just wants to collect public assistance should watch these videos and maybe they'll get a little motivation! How could you not? This man is an inspiration to us all!
Thank You Andy for another terrific informative video, where deliver our grain we have to have all the safety gear, hard hat, safety glasses, safety vest and hard toed safety boots. Love the effort you go to getting all the different camera angles, makes your videos very entertaining, take care and God Bless.
I saw the video of your story. You're a great inspiration to me. Lots of people complain about everything and they don't know the half of it. You are truly an awesome guy. Keep up the good work and I'll keep watching thanks again. Kim Alejandro, San Jose California
I've seen 10 of these videos now,, and they are totally amazing.. Learning that losing something, doesn't necessarily mean you become useless,, in fact total opposite,, This guy became awesome,, I've seen him use wrenches with his feet, answering a phone like anyone else would with their hands... I watch these videos to remind me that anything is possible...
cant understand how this clip has so many thumbs down ,,this guy should be inspirational to all ppl ,,I mean he dont want nothing for free and works hard ,
The thumbs down are from lazy basement dwellers who are jealous of Andy's ability to overcome life's little inconveniences. But they will still watch all his videos.
I must say, you are one amazing human being. If more people knew of you and your videos, and watched them, this world would be a better place. I have no physical disabilities, but I am dealing with cancer, and going through chemo. You are very inspiring, and for that I thank you Sir.
THIS IS A NICE VIDEO. THANKS, ANDY, FOR TAKING US ALONG ON YOUR TRUCK DELIVERY AND OUT INTO THE FIELD WATCHING THE BALES POP OUT AND THEN LATER THE STACKING.
Amazing man I’m still flabbergasted and so intrigued about how independent u are and love watching the farming and understanding it more. Just one thing. U give so many people with any kind of disability’s hope and knowledge that u can still do anything. I’ve told many people about ur page. Thank u sir
Hi Andy, what a beautiful farm and the home built in 1817 -- that's over 200 years old. And a century farm -- farming in the family for over 100 years. That is something to be very proud. The corn looks great, by the way. Dean from Minnesota
Just stumbled upon this video from RUclips’s infamous suggestions, love what I see! Good vibes, sunshine, farms, I became a subscriber within 1 minute of the video!
Wow. Your Dad's farm is beautiful...awesome that it's been in the family over 100 years...beautiful home and the converted shop is awesome... Thanks for showing us around... Hey look, a shoe...one of my shoes..LOL Thanks again for your channel. I really enjoy the videos a lot..All the best to you and your family, Andy.
YOU SIR ARE AN INSPIRATION TO ME AND SHOULD BE FOR EVERYONE ELSE IN THIS WORLD. I DON'T THINK I CAN SAY I CAN'T ANYMORE. I DRIVE A KENWORTH DAY CAB 10 SPEED HAULING TRASH BUT YOU GIVE A WHOLE DIFFERENT MEANING TO DRIVING GOD BLESS YOU FROM CHICAGO!!
Hi Andy! Looks like a good yield on the hay! Keep up the great videos! The American Farmer, getting more done before 6 AM than most people can do in a day!!!
Absolutely amazing. That definitely is more than what people can do with their arms & legs. Shows that you should never give up no matter what. You're very strong-willed and legendary in my book. Much love!
To S or low income families? Not everyone has money and not everyone can get jobs and I understand of the fact of being lazy. I agree with you there people should at least try to get a job but don’t be shitting on people when you have no absolute idea what their life’s are like.

I think Carhartt needs to send you some swag! never see you wear anything else. Neither do I . Have a dreat day Andy! Todd the retired trucker from Oregon.
Now thats what you call a fxxx bad ass, my respects to you man, may god keep blessing you and your family.. if we all had your attitude it would be a better world keep it up Andy!
Brother your amazing, you are exactly why there is absolutely no excuse to be lazy, you have more work ethic with two feet than most people do with two hands
Wow, just wow! I showed this video to my 6 year old son, and told him about the episode that you told your story, and he is amazed to say the least! He got a whole new perspective on life, struggles and daily things he earlier complained on. You are a true hero and a inpiration to us all! Thank you!😎
My best to you man! Your inspiring! My grandfather lost his arm in a baler accident. I thought he was something great to do what he did with one arm. An you. Well I have no words that could even come close to explain how inspiring you are.
A lot more of neighbors helping neighbors needs to happen. Dow and his son Nick and I have been working back and forth for several years now. Works out well for both of us. Thanks for watching.
You know I saw you at the farm show before I knew you were a RUclipsr and I had to look twice I was shocked I saw someone with no arms but your doing great and doing things better than a lot of people
Hi thanks for making this video. I just came across it on you tube. I was blown up in Iraq war 2006 and spent 8 years getting fixed and am still working on the Ptsd but physically my spine is half metal and took a year to learn to walk again and gave up on ever thinking I could be of any use to anyone but seeing You I feel I have a chance to give back to the world again thank you so much you've given me so much hope take care have a good day and life your amazing in spirit heart and mind
Hi Paul, First, Thank You for your service. Its because of people like you that people like me can do and say what we want. Theres a whole world out there of people like you and people like me that need our help and motivation to not give up. Giving up is the easy way out. You too are a testimate of overcoming what life threw at you. Help your brothers and sisters that are coming home in pieces. They too will feel like giving up, and you can help them. They need you. Its so rewarding. Keep working on that PTSD my friend. I feel all that you have overcome, you will conquer it also someday. Thanks so much for watching my friend, and again, thank you for your service
We never had the round bails on the farm when I was growing up either Andy, we had the little square bails too. I sure miss the farming days. It is a lot of hard, demanding work, but I would go back to that way of life in a heartbeat. Another great video my friend, I always enjoy watching your stuff.
Ok I was impressed to begin with, but my jaw dropped when u put ur sunglasses on. How are you that flexible?! I cant even get my foot above my bellybutton
Some people take thing for granted, but this guy driving a tractor trailer with only two legs 🦵🦵 . Amazing...don’t kno this man but I wish him the best of everything in life.. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Brother, you are a badass. Life is what we make of it. Proud to see the american farmer still has the ride or die spirit. Thank you.
I tell you what our Heavenly Father put this man here for a reason..it’s do be thankful of what you have and no complaints and no excuse...
His Parents never treated him like a handicap person mind over matter and a pair of arms don't matter got a farm to run. Stay Blessed.
That's more than most people can do with all their arms & legs..
That's more than most people choose to do with arms and legs...lazy bastards.
More than I can do; it really makes me consider my efforts...
Man with no arms driving a rig and still better then swift drivers

There is a video out there where a guy in a wheelchair cut out the side of his sleeper and installed a lift so that he could wheel onto and he was able to get in the truck and he drove off don't know if the truck was an automatic but it can be done
Rob Parsons builds hand controlled drift cars, I'm sure he could make a rig the same! Make it happen bro!
Thank you for the support guys really appreciate it
