- Sparsh Shah wants to show people how they can transcend every difficulty that comes their way in life and how they can start a chain reaction to be a guide for other people who want to turn their life around as well.
Sparsh is a 13-year old child prodigy, singer/song writer/rapper born with brittle bones (130+fractures), but an unbreakable spirit. He became a worldwide internet sensation with his Purhythm versions of Eminem covers. He aspires to inspire and sing in front of a billion people one day.
Sparsh has been learning Hindustani classical music for the last seven-and-a-half years and American vocal music for the last three years. Sparsh is multi-talented. He performs at community events and has appeared on local radio stations and television shows, besides hosting shows as an MC.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
His bones maybe fragile but his soul is really tough and strong.

Did u people notice that he didn't share his disabilities and feelings what he has faced....but still he motivated us , such a wonderful speech by 13 yrs old child. His voice is awesome ,the way of singing.. wow!! felt Goosebumps :)
Hello he share his problem and feeling in starting of video hope you understand!
@@gamerboys5189 i am not talking about the disorder , I'm just saying about the 'disabilities', he didn't mentioned the things which he can't do...!! We people ,feels more about the things which we can not do and blame ourself , but that child speaks in matured enough manner. I mentioned this point u understand!!
Dude he's a TEEN
I think his heart filled with pain.but he doesn't want to show to any other people. He just want to motivate them thats because I like him.ate the 13 he behave like a 70 years person his pain would be changed his personality god bless my child live long ...inspired all who thinks I am disabled. ...
Yeahh and in bollywood shows like indian idol there will always one guy or girl, who'll cry and say mere papa rickshaw chalate hai par unke legs nhi hai 🥲
He is speaking like a gentleman. He is absolutely a great person.
How genuinely he said 'Thank you' . GOD BLESS HIM.
How genuinely he said 'Thank you 'God Bless
I agree
Amen
What a great inspiration he is! When I was 18, I had a vacation job in a home for physically and mentally disabled children. It was one of the toughest things I've seen. The kids in the "bed" section were of all ages, up to 17 years, but they would never walk.... spend all their existence in a little bed. Their parents had all abandoned them, and nobody else wanted them, either. So the nurses there were the only ones caring for them. One little girl, the size of a one year old, who was actually 9 years old, had also what we called "glass bones", just like this boy. Except she had never had a family, who would believe in her, speak to her... nothing at all. The nurses never talked to the kids, they just cared for their bodily well being: feeding, washing, cleaning up diapers, giving medications.
I started to play with the kids, and they began to react to me, smiling mostly, as almost all could not move their body at all. I was sure that these children knew every one and who interacted with them or not. I managed to develop a real relationship with hand signs on my part, and mostly smiles or eye movements from the kids. The nurses and doctors were surprised to see the kids responding to me. It had never occurred to them to try it. I for one will never forget any of these children, they live on in my memory and my heart.
At what place did you get that job? may i know
Your comment made me cry.
That's so sweet of yours , i can imagine how beautiful and pure you are from your heart and soul.
" God bless you "
This is compassion to which even non sentient, plants respond. There nothing above a compassionate heart.
Kudos to you for your humanity
This boy is a Saint from Heaven. I just love the way he talks. He sings like an Angel. GOD BLESS!!!!!!
💓
GOD FORGOT TO BLESS HIM.
Hey, I have a disability as well and super 40s so it it’s kind of like yours but not as sentimental. I have a question for you I was wondering if I could use part of your video in one of my videos could you please email me at my email that will show up in your email when you get this comment notification. My name is Rebecca I am 31 I have watched your story literally over 1000 times, what is so inspirational not just me but to my family as well. Thank you so much for RUclips channel is called Rebecca movies, adorable baby clothes nursery if you would like to check it out that it’s a bit reborn dolls, but this is something that Hass to be called in my life. Thank you again Rebecca Russell.
Yes! Great song, story! Inspiring! Thank you to him for sharing and everyone for commenting.
he died btw
i love the way he gets happy when the audience clap for him
Yes
Yeah
@@miyi6621 Perchè? È molto simpatico, no?
I agree with you thank you
me too....but I felt awful when nobody laughed at his jokes.
when he would tell a joke and nobody would laugh I honestly felt bad for him.
Me too
They were just laughing for him.because he was laughing! and when somebody talks to me with laughing, I should also laugh him/her back. it’s not like that they were criticising him! I'm sure that audience loved him.
I agree with vanlikestoast,, and tjej still they weren't being that polite
By it he kept on going & never lost his laugh. I like his laugh.
I think they're just fascinated with how exceptional he is.
Him on a wheel chair saying "HELP OTHERS" wins my every compliment for him I can think of at the moment.
OH MY GOD..!!
He is So mature and smart..!
He knows how to talk to audience..!!
Love the way he says"Thank You"..!! (kinda cute)
Nikunj Garg true words.. really amazed
Nikunj Garg well said
Nikunj Garg I know right!
Nikunj Garg omg yall indian girls like him Lol
he is great
How to turn Impossible into I'm possible:
1. Find your passion
2. Never hold yourself back
3. Help others
4. Dream big
dream big, nah fkkkk it dream bigger
I know an easier way: impossible -> im possible -> i'm possible -> I'm possible.
P.S. yes I know what you meant lmao
@@danie.henryy nice
I like this boy.
You forgot no. 5
*:Fall from the height of your dreams*
Oh, and number 6:
*Never do those things again*
He sounds way too mature and smart...this kid gonna be huge...all the best wishes with you champ 👍🏼
wtf I am 14yr old programmer,hacker and developer but nobody knows me 😢😢😢😢😢
Tech Geeks4u haha bro now i know u and ive subscribed ur channel plz send me some cool haking code in private message so it ll remain anonymous 🤗
hey man u r so blessed with normal things cheer up.....
I think the audience felt laughing at his jokes would feel like they’re laughing at his condition. I think they were to nervous to laugh. Such power this young man has.
I see with you
that's what I thought, too, but still felt horrible when no one laughed at his jokes. But with his attitude I doubt it bothered him much.
Laughing on his jokes encourages him that he didnot attract pity from universe but the joy and energy.
May belaughter was not real because I was also seen the vedio . I barely smile once. I was surprisingly astonished to see the bravery of boy. How he drags whole sea of people along with leaving no space for sorrow, pity and all negative feelings. Isn't it
@@Yogaseyog yes, it is! He was so impressive.
I genuinely want to know what was wrong with the audience.
Coz the Audience is to OLD and not respect to a kids ( maybe )
Indians didn't expect humor from him 🤣🤣
@@azimmate6615 😂😂😂😂😂
just because they don't agree with his sense of humor doesn't mean they have issues lol
@@azimmate6615 nonsense 😶😶😶
This kid will make a landmark in human history .
Sparsh, you are more stronger than most of us. Keep inspiring.
Yes
That's not true this is your perception what you think
Hello
I hope u are strong too
@@kushagrasingh6293 8679899
this boy is unbelievable he was hiding his pain even though he was emotional /crying .when i was in 10th i got very less marks i had very high expectation that i'll score high i was depressed ,mentally and physically . just look at him his bones maybe fragile loved his speech now i'm going tell my self nothing is impossible everything will be possible if you want . fell in love with his voice
Seriously this is the meanest audience I ever know.
Henry Than, try and say sushi chef sushi
Henry Than don’t say that bruh just cause they didn’t laugh?
Itzy well, do you know what is meaner than someone doesn't laugh a 13 years old kid is doing his presentation ???
Henry Than, if they didn’t laugh they didn’t find it funny. Here let’s say I’m 13 years old and I make a bad joke that’s not funny what you gonna do? Probably not laugh if you laugh they’ll say the same bad joke again
Henry than, I know what’s meaner... someone robbing you
If you can sing classical Indian, you can sing anything....
this boy is inspirational indeed.
he did a joke and no one laughed at his joke. Bruh. His joke wasn't that bad tbh
true,PEOPLE APPRECiatee!!!!
😂😂
excactly i got so mar
@Mason Lamb lmao
I'm pretty sure the little mike on his cheek is not set up to record the audience. This happens to other Ted talkers as well. I can guarantee you they laughed, you just can't hear it in the little mike.
Awesome!
Everything is possible if you believe! I’m possible!
When I am down I listen to you Sparsh. I have listened to your music as well. You are my inspiration!
failure is not an option, giving up is not option either, we need people like you in this world
Failure is an option

But you should never give up and keep trying hard working
believe me i just feel goose pump when he started singing. he is so talented in just that early age. hats off young man.
It was a typo.. it is goose bumps...
Atif Ayub Petrol pump
Karan no it's goose bumps
me too
Jeez! The strength, talk, charisma and intelligence i see here is not of a 13year old! I don't know what level of wonder to place you but you are one of the earth's wonder! May you live long!
that pic of newborn was heartbreaking but this child is an incredible human being-he is like an old soul-props to his parents that never gave up on him!
HIS PARENTS MUST BE FEELING PROUD ON HIM
Ya they are very proud of him he is my brother

@@prachishah6595 you are very lucky to have him as your brother..
@@fathimanourin.1188 𝚈𝚊 😊
Loved his speech. Even a matured guy cannot speak like him. God bless Sparsh.
Whatever we say now people are doing amazing in their life and just show to the world "everyone have the ability to do whatever they want"
Thank you.

The boy was not physically and mentally paralized
The audience were
😂
Yes
I get what your saying 😶🙄
well thats because almost half of his references were american for eg Mr. Glass and the audience were indian with not much knowladge of western society
Your right I just feel bas
I’ve had the pleasure of meeting Sparsh and his dad Hiren in person. They are both absolutely incredible!
no words to express my satisfaction after watching dis video...he is just amazingggg
and I am sure I don't need to say god bless him Bcoz he is already blessed
ananya amakala chanel
ananya amakala O*
Amazing tone
ananya amakala ya like what kind of monster who would
i wonder what makes him 100% confident n faithfull i don't even have 20% confidence of anything. amazing guy
struggle made him strong..... when we meet obstacles, we know what we can overcome;
we people often tend to cower in fear of things from our imagination
On his confidence...because of his condition he was super protected and given the attention we all need as children. His health problem perhaps 'protected' him more from any form of abuse and/or neglect we normals are subjected to unconsciously. However, so much credit goes to his parents/caretakers. They did an excellent job independently from his condition.
The way he was saying "thank you" ....has my whole heart ❤❤
Inside a small boy is a talented, strong and brave man!!! God bless you!!! Lv u
I am also a paraplegic ...it's my destiny..but destiny can't defeat us.I can't move on my feet but I can fly with my internal power.I am trying for a teaching job ...and I have qualified all exams with good marks ..now I hope that I can get job....so we should never give up...in any conditions.of life..I want to be a teacher....
All the best.. god bless you..
r u smart
All the best
Never give up in life. Always believe in yourself.
You are already a teacher. You r inspiring ppl like u, thats what other teacher do
His jokes are adorable my favorite one is when he said”I guess you can call me iron man ironic right” I love this he said that because he had multiple screws and rods placed in his body
Life gives him hundred reasons to cry and he replies them with thousand reasons to smile.
very well said
shantosh lamichhane i
Exactly what I was thinking
You're the best my brother from another mother.
"I am not afraid" from Eminen is also my favorite.
Take the step.
Ima be what I set up to be.
God Bless.
His confidence is blowing my mind, he's truly a gentle guy!
this kid has more life than 10 people combined! amazing, truly inspirational!
2 minute silence for those who disliked this talent..
I salute you Sparsh ..
You are an Angel on earth ...
Stay blessed dear .
This was beyond me! Every thread in life makes sense only if we truly know our creator. God created you the way you are to bring hope to billions of people around the World. You truly touched my heart! God bless you!
amen....
we just come and go in this mystical world.... This kinda soul knows how to live... God bless him...
Real Hero..look bollywood wale
if u read the quran the pages start talking and they defend u like a court u will be judged and ur witness is the book of god the quran
and the key to jannah is to pray to god wash ur hands first then ur mouth then nose then face then arms then hair then ears then feet
and be a good person in general be kind to others and god will be kind to u in the judgement be have mercy and god will do the same
such a great inspiration ... I love the boy..
There's somethin so different about him.. very different. He's adorable..
He laughs..n smile... that's all ✨💜..he is so inspirational..y we always find limits in ourselves..?
The kid knows some nice puns at a young age and the audience has no sense of humor .
well i started lauughing at the first punch line not that it was good or bad but nobody reacted
I mean there not that funny
I’m not trying to be funny
Bcoz the audience are indians
@@abdulrahimkhan9285 stop it

This kids 19 now! Truly inspiring what he does!
There is no such thing as an impossible dream. This young man is full of wisdom beyond his years. He captivated my attention & I'm not easily impressed. Thank you for sharing your incredible message of inspiration. I truly enjoyed your excellent rendition of a perfectly chosen song. May you stay strong to continue realizing your dreams & perform before an audience of a Billion adoring fans. Abundant Blessings!
his smile is really cute and the way he presented himself to the all mature audience, hats off to him. we all with so many little problems and just whining about our problems but look at him.
when i see my self back when i was 13 😭😭😭😭😭 i didn't know 1% of the knowledge he has
Bro zmaana badal gya he jab tere papa 13 ke the tab vo utna jaante the kya jitna tum 13 me jaante the
Same here 😷😷😷
Don't underestimate your self... Everyone has different time to proliferate.. everyone got different social environment as well as mental support as well as economical .. everyone one is different and special
Live live to express not to impress. All r deferent
I believe he pushed himself hard to come forward with his problem to achieve something, it is extraordinary. He did it with very great family support. I would appreciate his parents to acheve this feet.
Such a sweet, funny and gifted human. You did 'Sparsh' our hearts💯. Amen to winning GRAMMYs.
There is one thing about this video that bothers me. The cameras did not show those of US in the front 3 rows having the time of our lives when Sparsh sang this. Whoop whoop! I was bawling. It was AMAZING!! I'll never forget it. Thx Sparsh. And thx to the Shah family. Simply amazing and we, the audience, could not have asked for a better close to TEDx Gateway 2016!!!! Life changing! .
Such a legend! Massive respect to him! He's changing lives and he's just 13! INCREDIBLE and God Bless :)
Sparsh is a pure soul. How can anyone be this great at his tender age? He has already left a footprint for us to follow.
Because Soul power is independent of the body age.
@@shashankgarg7476 ❤❤
His smile and his laughter just gives a very beautiful positivity ♥️
Dear Sparsh,
You’re super possible. It’s great to hear your song!
Keep up with your super art. Everyone loves you on this earth.

Hats off. His name is Sparsh (meaning a touch). A healing touch for millions who are desperate, depressed and feeling unlucky due to some small trouble in life. I have never seen a person who is so full of life. My respect from the inner core of my heart.
He is just like a living inspiration after Stefen Hawking
Exactly! When I first heard about this little angel, Stephen Hawking was the only man came in my mind
We should learn from him , He is inspiring the whole World . May be he is not perfect physically but mentally he is very perfect, strong And his smile literally ❤️
May god bless him
He looks so cute in every moment when he said "thank you"
S 😍
Don't say that the audience aren't cheering and being responsive. That is called respect, they are quietly listening to him.
they didnt laugh at his jokes good thing he is very strong
To all those who feel like their dreams are about to end or have almost shattered , this child is a true motivation. The confidence he has built in such a small age , fighting up with his disabilities and then too turning up higher than any normal being . hats off to you
WE ALL ARE NOT THE SAME , ALL OF US HAVE SOME OR THE OTHER THING DIFF . but child you have a mix of all the bestest qualities and abilities in you . kudos to your talent :-)
He does not seem to be of thirteen
What a personality👍
Ya
Really he is amazing
I literally applauded when he said "sparsh" everyone hearts 😁😁
That Kid has something known as ' Communication Skills '..!!
Nikunj Garg but the audience has got none!
Nikunj Garg absolutely right ..he's good speaker

I wish I had 1% of that quality from him.
