Great video. Toby Stevenson puts things in perspective in this video, like he said, he's been to every level. He is an inspiration for guys like me who are nobodies that want to make it big.
If you're gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough.

"i'm just a nerd who went to stanford who wore a helmet and used a stick to jump over another stick"

that about sums up toby.....a man who has achieved what almost everyone here has ever dreamed about achieving at the highest level and breaks it down into a simple sentance like that.....gotta love Toby
