Modern Day Rainman Turned Michael Jordan
This remarkable story is testament that anybody in life can achieve anything they set their mind to no matter what their circumstances are. This video will give you such a warm feeling - it's not to be missed!
In this video an autistic high school basketball manager, who is used to feeling different his whole life, gets his shot in the limelight by coming off the bench for the last 5 minutes of a ballgame.
The events that unfold are nothing short of staggering as he stuns his high school friends by shooting 6 three pointers in the space of 4 minutes. Witness the jubilation of the whole hall as a kid with hardship and learning difficulties throughout his life reaches the top of the world!
