That man lost his dad about 2 years ago, and then he lost his coach during the filming of this Mr. Beast video. That’s a lot of emotional trauma for anyone to deal with in such a short period of time! I’m astonished that he managed to cope with all this grief and still lose 100 pounds in 6 months! If that doesn’t inspire you, then I don’t know what will.

I wish Coach Wall was still alive to see just how many supporters he's gained through this video man. It is truly a shame. RIP Coach Wall!

I'm 300lbs after losing 80 (and still going), and literally nothing Dr. Mike says is fat phobic. It's ALL about leading and maximizing a healthy lifestyle. All I have to say is thank you, Dr. Mike, for just wanting the best for people!

I’m so glad Dr. Mike is always so real and ready to critique when needed without any bias. The trust he has with the viewers gives his advice so much weight and value 💚

So sad to see his trainer pass away. Glad he was able to push through and lose the weight on his own. He is a really big inspiration for a lot of people!

I did not expect to be crying from this video. This man has loads of trauma and still pushed himself forward.

Best thing a trainer ever did for me was ask me to hold a 50 lb weight and start our initial information session. I kept asking to put it down while he was asking questions and taking notes. He kept telling me to hang on a little longer. When I finally put it down it was huge relief. Then he said, now you can imagine the change you'll feel when you lose 50 lbs. That was interesting to see how they accomplished a similar thing around 18:14.

8:46 thank you so much for normalizing grief. As a psychiatrist, I really do my best to remind my patients that unpleasant emotions are part of life and should be felt (to a degree of course). As long as these emotions are not evolving into a an actual psychiatric condition, you have to allow yourself to feel them (frustration, anger, sadness, stress…).

9:20 I watched the video he lost his father last time he tried to lose weight.

@19:13 can confirm. As a lifelong chubby, to overweight, to fat, to obese, to morbidly obese , I can confirm your world continues to shrink smaller and smaller. 3.5 years ago I committed to making small changes and try to lose only 30 pounds a year. And a 5 year plan. Knowing small changes would be easy to make permanent. 3.5 years in, I’m 115 pounds down. And it’s been mostly easy. Slow. Easy. And hopefully permanent.

I absolutely love when you cover things like this. I know it's sensational, but being able to break this down and give us what it looks like when a medical provider looks at it is wonderful.

I lost my swimming coach to suicide 1.5 years ago. I am not exaggerating when I say he was like a second dad to me. I cried throughout the entire video after learning about coach Walls death. I wish I could give Majd a hug. Rest in peace to two great coaches🕊️🌌

I really appreciated what you said around 8:30 about acute grief being NORMAL. As an RN, I see MDs push antidepressants way too often in my opinion. I was taking care of a 93 year old patient once whose husband just passed and they wanted to prescribe her antidepressants. And I was like, “Isn’t it normal for her to be sad? In fact, wouldn’t it be strange if she wasn’t? Why are we pushing meds on her?” It didn’t sit right with me. People are allowed to be sad and grieve. Again, I’m grateful you explained this.

Although usually get fit quick fads are almost always extremely unhealthy, what Majd did here was truly respectable as in that he instilled good habits and also changed his life for the better with the guidance of Coach Wall, and it really goes to show how mentally strong Majd was to keep going even after such a devastating loss. RIP Coach Wall, you will never be forgotten.

Great video, thanks so much Dr Mike. Didn't wanna go to MrBeast's channel cuz I didn't want to feed to the algorithm, watching it here with your commentary was a great choice.

You can really see and hear how professional Dr. Mike is, even when there were emotions involved (by the way RIP coach Wall). His critique and advice is very neutral. He's truly a good doctor.

Seeing Mike being so encouraging but also critiquing certain things is really good to hear

As someone who's lost a loved one, I can understand the feeling..... It was really brave of Majd to go on and continue with his training. For himself and for Coach Wall. I really respect people who do that. R.I.P. Coach Wall 🍀

9:00 it's nice to hear that from a doctor. It's common for people to immediately say "you need to go to therapy" when you lose someone. But sometimes therapy just isn't accessible for people. So it's reassuring to hear a doctor say this.

Mike really does find the balance between offering genuine praise to providing criticism and not just blindly on one side i thinkthats what really seperates his react content with other creators
