1
00:00:16,460 --> 00:00:19,130
(dramatic music)

2
00:00:21,898 --> 00:00:23,100
[man] Filming?

3
00:00:23,134 --> 00:00:24,501
[Jennifer] Mmhmm?

4
00:00:24,535 --> 00:00:26,570
Good morning.

5
00:00:26,603 --> 00:00:30,107
I don't know if I should
wave with my right hand

6
00:00:30,141 --> 00:00:32,476
or try and wave
with this hand.

7
00:00:35,412 --> 00:00:36,147
Kinda hurts.

8
00:00:39,483 --> 00:00:43,154
So maybe I'll just
talk about today

9
00:00:43,187 --> 00:00:45,522
and kind of today's
significance

10
00:00:45,556 --> 00:00:49,126
but I'll introduce myself
to my camera first.

11
00:00:49,160 --> 00:00:51,162
Eduardo Garcia, hi.

12
00:00:51,195 --> 00:00:54,498
Today I'm going
into an operation

13
00:00:54,531 --> 00:00:56,500
where I've made a decision

14
00:00:56,533 --> 00:00:59,303
to take off my own limb,

15
00:00:59,336 --> 00:01:02,839
this big ole...

16
00:01:02,873 --> 00:01:07,478
left arm of mine
I've had for 30 years.

17
00:01:07,511 --> 00:01:12,783
And I don't know if it's
always done great things

18
00:01:12,816 --> 00:01:16,620
but it's always done
great things by me.

19
00:01:16,653 --> 00:01:19,723
(music playing)

20
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:27,331
* When I grow up

21
00:01:27,364 --> 00:01:29,600
* I want to be a forester

22
00:01:29,633 --> 00:01:34,371
* Run through the moss
on high heels

23
00:01:34,405 --> 00:01:38,675
* That's what I'll do

24
00:01:38,709 --> 00:01:40,911
* Throwing out a boomerang

25
00:01:40,944 --> 00:01:45,849
* Waiting for it
to come back to me

26
00:01:54,491 --> 00:01:57,928
* That's what I'll have

27
00:01:57,961 --> 00:02:01,198
* Staring at a sea shell

28
00:02:01,232 --> 00:02:06,570
* Waiting for it

29
00:02:06,603 --> 00:02:09,273
* To catch me or hold

30
00:02:27,324 --> 00:02:30,261
(dramatic music)

31
00:02:30,294 --> 00:02:33,564
-(heavy breathing)
-(heart beating)

32
00:02:37,468 --> 00:02:39,236
[Garcia]
I remember coming to

33
00:02:41,938 --> 00:02:44,808
and not being able
to move my body.

34
00:02:47,844 --> 00:02:50,614
But I remember knowing
that I had to move my body.

35
00:02:50,647 --> 00:02:52,649
From that point,

36
00:02:52,683 --> 00:02:56,487
from waking up and rolling
over onto my hands and knees,

37
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,455
there's a gap.

38
00:03:00,924 --> 00:03:03,594
(heavy breathing)

39
00:03:13,504 --> 00:03:16,773
My next memory is the road.

40
00:03:16,807 --> 00:03:19,743
I thought I was
totally in a dream,

41
00:03:19,776 --> 00:03:22,346
somewhere in the mountains.

42
00:03:22,379 --> 00:03:26,517
There's no way I could
be in this sensation

43
00:03:26,550 --> 00:03:28,819
and not be in a dream state.

44
00:03:31,054 --> 00:03:34,291
When I put it together
that I wasn't dreaming

45
00:03:34,325 --> 00:03:36,393
was I could hear birds.

46
00:03:37,694 --> 00:03:39,863
(imitating chirping)

47
00:03:39,896 --> 00:03:43,300
I could hear my boots scuffing

48
00:03:43,334 --> 00:03:46,303
and that was real,
that was then.

49
00:03:48,772 --> 00:03:50,374
And then it clicked.

50
00:03:54,411 --> 00:03:56,480
I was out hunting today.

51
00:03:56,513 --> 00:04:00,050
I came across this metal barrel

52
00:04:00,083 --> 00:04:02,986
that was in the earth.

53
00:04:03,019 --> 00:04:05,389
I looked in it,

54
00:04:05,422 --> 00:04:10,293
there's this decomposing
or decaying carcass.

55
00:04:11,862 --> 00:04:14,665
I want to check it out,
I'm curious,

56
00:04:14,698 --> 00:04:16,967
I take my knife out.

57
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,602
(dramatic music)

58
00:04:18,635 --> 00:04:20,571
(explosion)

59
00:04:20,604 --> 00:04:24,074
But it hits me like
I'm being electrocuted.

60
00:04:26,477 --> 00:04:30,013
I need to get down,
I need to get to a house,

61
00:04:30,046 --> 00:04:32,483
I need to ask
someone to call 911.

62
00:04:34,918 --> 00:04:37,621
(dramatic music)

63
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,443
There was no warning,

64
00:04:59,476 --> 00:05:02,413
it was just this dead
bear in a metal can.

65
00:05:04,415 --> 00:05:08,351
How was I supposed to
know it was on live power?

66
00:05:24,801 --> 00:05:27,538
The outdoors was my first love

67
00:05:27,571 --> 00:05:30,974
and then cooking
was my second.

68
00:05:31,007 --> 00:05:33,477
It came from
my environment.

69
00:05:35,712 --> 00:05:37,814
It was a place of freedom.

70
00:05:39,215 --> 00:05:41,184
Food became this language

71
00:05:41,217 --> 00:05:42,753
that I could speak with anyone

72
00:05:42,786 --> 00:05:45,889
from anywhere in the world.

73
00:05:45,922 --> 00:05:50,794
A passion that was
defining who I was in life

74
00:05:50,827 --> 00:05:54,698
and everything was
just coming together.

75
00:05:54,731 --> 00:05:59,570
Something that you've
worked your whole life for

76
00:05:59,603 --> 00:06:04,475
and having it yanked out
from underneath you.

77
00:06:04,508 --> 00:06:08,411
I don't know how else
to describe that.

78
00:06:12,248 --> 00:06:16,553
My phone just started to buzz.

79
00:06:16,587 --> 00:06:18,054
I'm with your brother,

80
00:06:18,088 --> 00:06:19,490
he's been hurt.

81
00:06:20,891 --> 00:06:22,526
I spoke to the surgeon

82
00:06:22,559 --> 00:06:25,696
and he said that I should
speak to Ed on the phone

83
00:06:25,729 --> 00:06:27,731
because it might be the last
time that I speak to him.

84
00:06:27,764 --> 00:06:30,534
I asked him, "Is he
alive, will he live?"

85
00:06:30,567 --> 00:06:32,703
He said, "I've seen cases

86
00:06:32,736 --> 00:06:35,606
"where people survive
something like this."

87
00:06:35,639 --> 00:06:40,210
He said, "But he would have
some significant handicaps."

88
00:06:40,243 --> 00:06:42,546
[Daphne] There is
a lot of maladies

89
00:06:42,579 --> 00:06:44,014
that come out of
an electrocution

90
00:06:44,047 --> 00:06:46,650
because we just don't
know how it affects

91
00:06:46,683 --> 00:06:49,720
all the other
tissues in the body.

92
00:06:49,753 --> 00:06:53,657
And he just wrote
something like "I love you

93
00:06:53,690 --> 00:06:56,593
and I don't want
to lose my hand."

94
00:06:56,627 --> 00:06:59,530
(rapid breathing)

95
00:07:01,532 --> 00:07:02,966
When Ed first arrived here,

96
00:07:02,999 --> 00:07:06,703
he had several life-
threatening injuries.

97
00:07:06,737 --> 00:07:07,738
It was his hand

98
00:07:07,771 --> 00:07:09,172
which is the entrance wound

99
00:07:09,205 --> 00:07:12,809
and then it was the chest
wall area, his ribs.

100
00:07:12,843 --> 00:07:14,711
He had two areas on his head

101
00:07:14,745 --> 00:07:16,947
which were exit wounds.

102
00:07:16,980 --> 00:07:20,517
He also had a blow out
on his left thigh.

103
00:07:26,923 --> 00:07:28,191
I remember we landed

104
00:07:28,224 --> 00:07:29,593
and the first thing I said

105
00:07:29,626 --> 00:07:31,027
once I woke up
when we landed was,

106
00:07:31,061 --> 00:07:34,531
"So what time are we
going home tonight?"

107
00:07:34,565 --> 00:07:35,899
You know what I mean,

108
00:07:35,932 --> 00:07:38,769
like I just had no
idea how big this was.

109
00:07:40,637 --> 00:07:43,574
[Man] Yeah, the amount of
current that went through you

110
00:07:43,607 --> 00:07:44,608
it's amazing that--

111
00:07:44,641 --> 00:07:45,776
[Woman] You're alive.

112
00:07:45,809 --> 00:07:48,144
[Man] Yeah, so amazing.

113
00:07:48,178 --> 00:07:50,614
[Eduardo] Amazing I'm alive.

114
00:07:53,083 --> 00:07:54,551
[Man] One sec,
we'll clean it off.

115
00:07:54,585 --> 00:07:56,319
[Eduardo] So just
when I look at it,

116
00:07:56,352 --> 00:07:58,555
it just looks gnarly man,

117
00:07:58,589 --> 00:08:02,092
black and funky and--
There's exposed tissue there

118
00:08:02,125 --> 00:08:04,294
and there's concern that
maybe you cut the ribs,

119
00:08:04,327 --> 00:08:06,897
maybe not very alive either.

120
00:08:06,930 --> 00:08:10,066
[Jennifer] Baby,
look at me and smile.

121
00:08:10,100 --> 00:08:11,067
Smile.

122
00:08:21,211 --> 00:08:23,780
It made me really sad
to think of Ed waking up

123
00:08:23,814 --> 00:08:26,282
without a hand and
these horrific injuries

124
00:08:26,316 --> 00:08:27,884
in a dark room by himself

125
00:08:27,918 --> 00:08:31,622
with just a bunch of
machines just beeping.

126
00:08:34,324 --> 00:08:36,627
During the day is when
everything's normal

127
00:08:36,660 --> 00:08:38,729
and as soon as
the night comes,

128
00:08:38,762 --> 00:08:40,964
it's kind of when
crazy stuff happens,

129
00:08:40,997 --> 00:08:42,365
nightmares or whatever

130
00:08:42,398 --> 00:08:44,100
like obviously Ed had
a lot of nightmares

131
00:08:44,134 --> 00:08:47,003
so I was really glad
just to be there

132
00:08:47,037 --> 00:08:49,372
so when he did stir in
the night or whatever.

133
00:08:49,405 --> 00:08:53,243
So really sleeping
there in this chair

134
00:08:53,276 --> 00:08:55,245
was way worth it

135
00:08:55,278 --> 00:08:57,280
and I wouldn't have left.

136
00:08:59,415 --> 00:09:01,351
Yes, he's right here with me.

137
00:09:01,384 --> 00:09:02,986
He's in a little bit of pain

138
00:09:03,019 --> 00:09:05,756
but nothing crazy,
just happy.

139
00:09:05,789 --> 00:09:07,791
That felt so good.

140
00:09:07,824 --> 00:09:09,993
[Man] So that's
you on the CT scanner.

141
00:09:10,026 --> 00:09:14,164
It seemed like they really
cared about each other.

142
00:09:14,197 --> 00:09:16,733
I didn't actually know
that they weren't dating

143
00:09:16,767 --> 00:09:17,934
when I first met 'em.

144
00:09:17,968 --> 00:09:19,369
I thought they were.

145
00:09:23,707 --> 00:09:25,208
I could've been sleeping there

146
00:09:25,241 --> 00:09:26,977
but is that what he needed?

147
00:09:27,010 --> 00:09:30,914
My mom could've been there
sleeping for a month.

148
00:09:30,947 --> 00:09:33,717
Is that what he needed?

149
00:09:33,750 --> 00:09:36,152
No, I think he needed
Jen there.

150
00:09:39,189 --> 00:09:41,124
We have to be
supportive of one another

151
00:09:41,157 --> 00:09:42,993
and if you're used
to being the captain

152
00:09:43,026 --> 00:09:44,327
like I was for example,

153
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,362
you have to let go
of certain things

154
00:09:46,396 --> 00:09:50,667
'cause it's really not about
you that much at that point.

155
00:09:57,808 --> 00:10:01,177
Being alive with
a few handicaps

156
00:10:01,211 --> 00:10:04,180
is much better
than being dead.

157
00:10:04,214 --> 00:10:05,648
That's for sure,

158
00:10:06,482 --> 00:10:08,184
that's for damn sure.

159
00:10:10,987 --> 00:10:11,788
Yeah.

160
00:10:15,391 --> 00:10:17,861
(slow music)

161
00:10:17,894 --> 00:10:22,833
[Kathie] Eduardo and Eugenio
came in on August 4th, 1981,

162
00:10:22,866 --> 00:10:25,235
seven and a half
weeks premature.

163
00:10:25,268 --> 00:10:27,203
We called them the boys.

164
00:10:29,105 --> 00:10:32,308
Indra was two and
a half years old.

165
00:10:32,342 --> 00:10:35,045
We were living in Calabasas
outside of Los Angeles.

166
00:10:35,078 --> 00:10:37,147
Then, when they were
three months old,

167
00:10:37,180 --> 00:10:38,414
their father left

168
00:10:39,482 --> 00:10:42,018
saying he would come back,

169
00:10:42,052 --> 00:10:44,788
that he was gonna
return to Mexico,

170
00:10:44,821 --> 00:10:47,257
he was gonna return to this
little island where he grew up.

171
00:10:47,290 --> 00:10:50,927
I looked at Indra and then I
looked at Eduardo and Eugenio

172
00:10:50,961 --> 00:10:54,998
and I knew that I had
to be there for them

173
00:10:55,031 --> 00:10:59,736
and make the best of
a difficult situation.

174
00:10:59,770 --> 00:11:02,305
She's a very spiritual
woman, my mom

175
00:11:03,974 --> 00:11:07,343
and she founded a
spiritual community in LA.

176
00:11:08,945 --> 00:11:11,314
(slow music)

177
00:11:18,154 --> 00:11:20,223
Almost the entire
community moved to Montana,

178
00:11:20,256 --> 00:11:21,758
I'm talking hundreds of people.

179
00:11:21,792 --> 00:11:23,426
[Indra] There was
definitely like singing

180
00:11:23,459 --> 00:11:26,262
about being Montana bound.

181
00:11:26,296 --> 00:11:28,765
We welcome you to the heart

182
00:11:28,799 --> 00:11:32,202
and we sing the
song of gratitude.

183
00:11:32,235 --> 00:11:34,905
Here, oh universe,
I am grateful.

184
00:11:38,374 --> 00:11:41,444
[Eduardo] I just kind of
think growing up that way

185
00:11:41,477 --> 00:11:43,113
is a privilege.

186
00:11:43,146 --> 00:11:45,982
There's others that
saw our community,

187
00:11:46,016 --> 00:11:48,218
definitely thought it
was a little weird.

188
00:11:48,251 --> 00:11:51,221
I always tell my mom
that was the best move

189
00:11:51,254 --> 00:11:52,288
she could've ever done

190
00:11:52,322 --> 00:11:54,424
was getting us here.

191
00:11:54,457 --> 00:11:56,559
For me it was
almost like we moved

192
00:11:56,592 --> 00:12:00,496
into the set of a National
Geographic magazine.

193
00:12:00,530 --> 00:12:05,135
The mountains had their
own special magical allure

194
00:12:05,168 --> 00:12:07,270
for a child's imagination.

195
00:12:09,873 --> 00:12:11,374
We would spend our summers

196
00:12:11,407 --> 00:12:12,809
fishing in Yellowstone,

197
00:12:12,843 --> 00:12:14,277
running into the hills.

198
00:12:15,879 --> 00:12:18,081
I definitely took
to that very quickly

199
00:12:18,114 --> 00:12:19,916
and made it my home.

200
00:12:25,989 --> 00:12:27,557
[Jennifer] Hello, Ed.

201
00:12:29,592 --> 00:12:30,894
Hey.

202
00:12:30,927 --> 00:12:32,562
No, we're filming this for

203
00:12:32,595 --> 00:12:35,465
just documenting
my recovery for us.

204
00:12:35,498 --> 00:12:36,499
[Woman] Cool.

205
00:12:36,532 --> 00:12:38,234
Yeah.

206
00:12:38,268 --> 00:12:43,039
[Jennifer] It's pretty
hard for a YouTube video.

207
00:12:43,073 --> 00:12:47,343
I saw it as part of the
recovery process to film.

208
00:12:47,377 --> 00:12:49,479
It was really
important to me

209
00:12:49,512 --> 00:12:51,381
that he didn't come
out the other end of it

210
00:12:51,414 --> 00:12:53,984
and be like, why did
you sign that way,

211
00:12:54,017 --> 00:12:55,085
why did you sign this way,

212
00:12:55,118 --> 00:12:56,953
and not really understand.

213
00:12:56,987 --> 00:12:58,488
[Woman] So we would go in

214
00:12:58,521 --> 00:12:59,589
and raise up all
these loose edges

215
00:12:59,622 --> 00:13:01,057
and free them up

216
00:13:01,091 --> 00:13:02,392
so that they can
come together

217
00:13:02,425 --> 00:13:05,929
and allow this hair
to shift to this area.

218
00:13:05,962 --> 00:13:07,898
Okay, and you
think my eyebrows

219
00:13:07,931 --> 00:13:08,965
are gonna be all like this?

220
00:13:08,999 --> 00:13:10,166
[Woman] I hope not.

221
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:11,868
[Jennifer] Also for Ed,

222
00:13:11,902 --> 00:13:15,638
filming actually kind of
gave him something to do.

223
00:13:15,671 --> 00:13:20,376
See you later, I'm going to
get my head wound closed up.

224
00:13:20,410 --> 00:13:23,213
I'm just kind of coming
out of anesthesia.

225
00:13:23,246 --> 00:13:25,348
[Jennifer] You want
to look at me, Ed?

226
00:13:25,381 --> 00:13:26,216
Very cool.

227
00:13:27,150 --> 00:13:28,551
Ready Jennifer?

228
00:13:28,584 --> 00:13:30,053
[Jennifer] I'm ready.

229
00:13:30,086 --> 00:13:31,387
When you're in the hospital,

230
00:13:31,421 --> 00:13:32,588
every day is the same.

231
00:13:32,622 --> 00:13:34,124
Everything's getting better

232
00:13:34,157 --> 00:13:35,992
but it's very slowly
getting better.

233
00:13:36,026 --> 00:13:38,929
Is it video,
filming right now?

234
00:13:38,962 --> 00:13:40,363
[Jennifer] Mm-hmm.

235
00:13:40,396 --> 00:13:41,464
You close enough?

236
00:13:41,497 --> 00:13:42,632
-[Jennifer] Yep.
-Are you sure?

237
00:13:42,665 --> 00:13:44,167
I think you should
be closer.

238
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:45,135
Want to turn the light on more?

239
00:13:45,168 --> 00:13:46,102
[Jennifer] No, I'm good.

240
00:13:46,136 --> 00:13:46,970
You're good?

241
00:13:47,003 --> 00:13:48,204
You sure?

242
00:13:48,238 --> 00:13:49,472
[Jennifer] It
just gave a focus

243
00:13:49,505 --> 00:13:51,007
on something other
than just the fact

244
00:13:51,041 --> 00:13:52,042
that we're in a
freaking hospital.

245
00:13:52,075 --> 00:13:53,143
Yes, I got it!

246
00:13:55,311 --> 00:13:57,013
Nailed that sucker!

247
00:13:57,047 --> 00:14:00,116
I've been trying that
for like 10 times.

248
00:14:01,384 --> 00:14:03,186
[Boy]
I'll help you.

249
00:14:03,219 --> 00:14:04,420
[Boy #2] God it's cold.

250
00:14:04,454 --> 00:14:06,289
Hurry up.

251
00:14:06,322 --> 00:14:09,525
I didn't have a dad
growing up.

252
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,495
There was really no one
looking over us saying,

253
00:14:12,528 --> 00:14:14,097
"Don't do that or
don't do this."

254
00:14:14,130 --> 00:14:15,665
It was really our
world to discover

255
00:14:15,698 --> 00:14:19,369
and make our own mistakes
and learn from them.

256
00:14:21,071 --> 00:14:23,639
I just remember that
they were both crazy

257
00:14:23,673 --> 00:14:27,610
and having them both
together was chaos.

258
00:14:27,643 --> 00:14:29,379
Yeah man, what's up with you?

259
00:14:29,412 --> 00:14:30,580
Hey, bitch, come on.

260
00:14:30,613 --> 00:14:32,648
Yeah, you think you're bad.

261
00:14:34,217 --> 00:14:35,485
[Kathie] They had
a lot of energy.

262
00:14:35,518 --> 00:14:37,487
I tried the best I could

263
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,090
to keep Eddie in line.

264
00:14:40,123 --> 00:14:42,625
[Eduardo] I guess
my educational history

265
00:14:42,658 --> 00:14:45,028
is kicked out of nine
different schools

266
00:14:45,061 --> 00:14:47,730
starting with preschool,
disruptive behavior.

267
00:14:47,763 --> 00:14:51,367
First grade was for
filling condoms with piss

268
00:14:51,401 --> 00:14:52,969
and throwing them
down the hallway.

269
00:14:53,003 --> 00:14:55,438
I started a fire in
the boy's bathroom

270
00:14:55,471 --> 00:14:57,340
so I got kicked
out of that school.

271
00:14:57,373 --> 00:14:59,242
[Eugenio] Got into a fight,

272
00:14:59,275 --> 00:15:01,411
we kind of both got kicked
out in that situation

273
00:15:01,444 --> 00:15:05,048
but I think he was
leading the charge.

274
00:15:05,081 --> 00:15:07,750
Eugene, he was 11 years old,

275
00:15:07,783 --> 00:15:09,719
never even thought about
not having a father

276
00:15:09,752 --> 00:15:11,154
and he goes, "I need
to meet my father."

277
00:15:11,187 --> 00:15:13,990
And she said, "Okay."

278
00:15:14,024 --> 00:15:15,391
And within months,

279
00:15:15,425 --> 00:15:17,560
it was literally that fast.

280
00:15:17,593 --> 00:15:20,363
Where's dad and then
we're in Mexico.

281
00:15:22,098 --> 00:15:26,036
All I knew is he was this
incredibly dark, tanned

282
00:15:26,069 --> 00:15:27,370
pirate looking figure

283
00:15:27,403 --> 00:15:30,073
that fished for
sharks and lobster

284
00:15:30,106 --> 00:15:33,576
and lived this crazy
jungle lifestyle.

285
00:15:33,609 --> 00:15:35,678
He was like a hero.

286
00:15:35,711 --> 00:15:37,147
It was idyllic,

287
00:15:37,180 --> 00:15:39,182
me and my twin
brother running around

288
00:15:39,215 --> 00:15:41,051
just having a blast.

289
00:15:41,084 --> 00:15:42,518
Hi, mom.

290
00:15:42,552 --> 00:15:43,353
Hi, guys.

291
00:15:46,389 --> 00:15:49,059
(mariachi music)

292
00:15:55,231 --> 00:15:58,101
We decided to
get together again.

293
00:16:02,405 --> 00:16:04,674
We went through a lot of
changes, a lot of changes,

294
00:16:04,707 --> 00:16:08,444
and then me becoming
pregnant with Ellie

295
00:16:08,478 --> 00:16:11,114
and integrating into a family.

296
00:16:16,452 --> 00:16:18,088
[Eduardo] The first
time my dad's actually

297
00:16:18,121 --> 00:16:20,190
gotten to make a snowball.

298
00:16:20,223 --> 00:16:22,158
I don't know if he
expected himself

299
00:16:22,192 --> 00:16:24,394
to play dad all of a sudden.

300
00:16:24,427 --> 00:16:26,629
Hey, dad, no,
don't throw it!

301
00:16:30,633 --> 00:16:31,467
Say hi.

302
00:16:31,501 --> 00:16:32,802
Hi.

303
00:16:32,835 --> 00:16:34,404
And we're gonna
go say hi to Eduardo

304
00:16:34,437 --> 00:16:35,738
who's having lunch

305
00:16:35,771 --> 00:16:39,109
and he does not know
that dad is here.

306
00:16:39,142 --> 00:16:41,377
(speaking in Spanish)

307
00:16:41,411 --> 00:16:42,578
It's a surprise.

308
00:16:42,612 --> 00:16:44,114
He doesn't know you're here.

309
00:16:44,147 --> 00:16:48,184
No (speaking in
Spanish).

310
00:16:48,218 --> 00:16:48,851
[Eugenio] Whistle, whistle.

311
00:16:48,884 --> 00:16:50,586
(whistling)

312
00:16:50,620 --> 00:16:54,457
(speaking in Spanish)

313
00:17:00,530 --> 00:17:02,198
Hey, how you doing?

314
00:17:02,232 --> 00:17:03,266
How you doing?

315
00:17:03,299 --> 00:17:06,369
Thank you, thank you to be here.

316
00:17:06,402 --> 00:17:10,240
(speaking in Spanish)

317
00:17:22,652 --> 00:17:24,787
[Eduardo] For many years,
he wasn't really my dad,

318
00:17:24,820 --> 00:17:26,489
he was a friend.

319
00:17:26,522 --> 00:17:29,125
[Manuel] Watch it,
don't break the line.

320
00:17:29,159 --> 00:17:31,227
Don't break the line.

321
00:17:31,261 --> 00:17:33,163
It's a big fish, wow.

322
00:17:35,265 --> 00:17:36,366
It's big fish.

323
00:17:37,700 --> 00:17:38,534
Ha ha!

324
00:17:41,271 --> 00:17:44,140
[Eduardo] At 13,
I started using drugs

325
00:17:44,174 --> 00:17:47,743
and then I started smoking
cigarettes with my dad

326
00:17:47,777 --> 00:17:49,279
and doing drugs with my dad

327
00:17:49,312 --> 00:17:50,313
and drinking with my dad

328
00:17:50,346 --> 00:17:52,248
and he becomes my best friend

329
00:17:52,282 --> 00:17:54,850
because he's not telling me no.

330
00:17:54,884 --> 00:17:57,420
And I was already
hanging with a crew

331
00:17:57,453 --> 00:18:00,156
that was tripping on
acid and doing coke

332
00:18:00,190 --> 00:18:01,791
and everything else.

333
00:18:01,824 --> 00:18:04,327
[Kathie] When Eduardo was 17,

334
00:18:04,360 --> 00:18:06,162
he sat at the kitchen
table and he said,

335
00:18:06,196 --> 00:18:09,765
"I realize that my habits
were hurting my family."

336
00:18:09,799 --> 00:18:12,235
[Eduardo] So I'm tired of
living in the shadows of lies

337
00:18:12,268 --> 00:18:15,671
and I just want to
level the field here

338
00:18:15,705 --> 00:18:18,441
and me, Euge, Indra, dad,

339
00:18:18,474 --> 00:18:21,711
we've been using drugs for
years behind your back, mom.

340
00:18:21,744 --> 00:18:23,446
I mean, I was livid.

341
00:18:24,780 --> 00:18:26,516
And I think for Eduardo

342
00:18:26,549 --> 00:18:28,918
going straight was essential.

343
00:18:30,686 --> 00:18:33,556
[Eduardo] I decided if I
want to make an impact in life,

344
00:18:33,589 --> 00:18:35,458
I needed to get to business,

345
00:18:35,491 --> 00:18:36,892
I need to get to work,

346
00:18:36,926 --> 00:18:40,396
I need to be
purposeful in my life.

347
00:18:40,430 --> 00:18:44,867
I had already been cooking in
restaurants since I was 15.

348
00:18:44,900 --> 00:18:46,969
And then I decided
culinary school

349
00:18:47,002 --> 00:18:49,672
was going to be where
I put all my energy

350
00:18:49,705 --> 00:18:51,774
and through that,

351
00:18:51,807 --> 00:18:56,412
I wanted to discover
my potential

352
00:18:56,446 --> 00:18:59,249
on my own without substances.

353
00:18:59,282 --> 00:19:00,983
[Announcer] Eduardo Garcia.

354
00:19:01,016 --> 00:19:04,254
(audience applause)

355
00:19:10,693 --> 00:19:12,428
[Eduardo] Danielle, you
want to see something cool?

356
00:19:12,462 --> 00:19:13,763
Come here.

357
00:19:13,796 --> 00:19:14,630
[Jennifer] Yeah,
this is pretty cool.

358
00:19:14,664 --> 00:19:15,998
So, this is lefty,

359
00:19:16,031 --> 00:19:16,866
you now lefty, Danielle?

360
00:19:16,899 --> 00:19:18,368
[Danielle] Yeah.

361
00:19:18,401 --> 00:19:20,002
I can feel all my
fingers still over there

362
00:19:20,035 --> 00:19:21,371
even though they're not there.

363
00:19:21,404 --> 00:19:23,273
That's my thumb moving,

364
00:19:24,474 --> 00:19:26,242
this is my pinky moving.

365
00:19:27,810 --> 00:19:31,447
Maybe I'll be able to
get a prosthetic limb

366
00:19:31,481 --> 00:19:35,351
that has like some
kind of sensors.

367
00:19:35,385 --> 00:19:37,653
I don't want the ones that are
supposed to look like hands.

368
00:19:37,687 --> 00:19:41,891
I want like cool, custom made
like hardwood cherry hands

369
00:19:41,924 --> 00:19:44,994
or oak or like titanium, I
don't know, something cool.

370
00:19:45,027 --> 00:19:46,429
[Woman] Antler.

371
00:19:46,462 --> 00:19:48,631
Fucking yeah,
antler, like bone,

372
00:19:50,766 --> 00:19:52,368
kinda cool.

373
00:19:52,402 --> 00:19:53,536
[Woman] That's awesome.

374
00:19:53,569 --> 00:19:55,405
That is awesome.

375
00:19:55,438 --> 00:19:57,473
Boom, boom, boom, boom.

376
00:19:57,507 --> 00:19:59,709
Only time I was worried for him

377
00:19:59,742 --> 00:20:02,512
was when he had
his chest operation

378
00:20:02,545 --> 00:20:06,482
because they'd never done
anything like it before.

379
00:20:06,516 --> 00:20:08,918
With the rib, you
can't just cut it off

380
00:20:08,951 --> 00:20:11,354
and leave a hole in the chest.

381
00:20:11,387 --> 00:20:12,688
What we have to do

382
00:20:12,722 --> 00:20:14,857
is try to find ways
to cover that up.

383
00:20:14,890 --> 00:20:16,792
[Jennifer] So we had
like the burn team,

384
00:20:16,826 --> 00:20:17,793
the plastic surgeon team,

385
00:20:17,827 --> 00:20:19,595
the cardiothoracic team,

386
00:20:19,629 --> 00:20:21,030
everybody around the bed

387
00:20:21,063 --> 00:20:23,333
just kind of
brainstorming essentially

388
00:20:23,366 --> 00:20:25,034
what muscle they
could take from where.

389
00:20:25,067 --> 00:20:26,702
[Doctor] Everything
that's dead.

390
00:20:26,736 --> 00:20:29,339
-Gotta go.
-[Doctor] Gotta go, yeah.

391
00:20:29,372 --> 00:20:32,875
That may leave you with a
hole on your chest this big.

392
00:20:32,908 --> 00:20:34,644
Yes, sir.

393
00:20:34,677 --> 00:20:36,712
[Doctor] Like kind of
stick my head in it kind of.

394
00:20:36,746 --> 00:20:38,481
Yes, sir.

395
00:20:38,514 --> 00:20:42,017
The likelihood of you
doing pull ups again is zero.

396
00:20:42,051 --> 00:20:43,353
Pull ups again

397
00:20:43,386 --> 00:20:44,720
-in a year?
-Ever, ever.

398
00:20:44,754 --> 00:20:46,322
You're gonna have,

399
00:20:46,356 --> 00:20:48,991
your lat's gonna be
turned around to here.

400
00:20:49,024 --> 00:20:51,794
(knives scraping)

401
00:20:54,730 --> 00:20:59,369
[Eduardo] I just wrapped
up a very successful year

402
00:20:59,402 --> 00:21:00,503
as a yacht chef,

403
00:21:00,536 --> 00:21:02,037
11 years of hard work.

404
00:21:04,507 --> 00:21:07,042
My way of cooking as a
professional yacht chef

405
00:21:07,076 --> 00:21:08,411
really became: get there,

406
00:21:08,444 --> 00:21:10,112
figure out what's in the market,

407
00:21:10,145 --> 00:21:11,647
what's local, what's in season

408
00:21:11,681 --> 00:21:15,418
and then figure out
how to put it together.

409
00:21:16,819 --> 00:21:19,422
Definitely developing as a chef.

410
00:21:21,924 --> 00:21:24,560
You're going around the world.

411
00:21:24,594 --> 00:21:26,796
There were all
kinds of adventures.

412
00:21:26,829 --> 00:21:29,599
It kickstarted a time of life

413
00:21:29,632 --> 00:21:31,567
where I was accountable
to myself only

414
00:21:31,601 --> 00:21:34,637
and myself was interested in
letting loose a little bit.

415
00:21:34,670 --> 00:21:38,107
So that is what
brought me into hey,

416
00:21:38,140 --> 00:21:40,410
been six, seven years
since I've had a beer,

417
00:21:40,443 --> 00:21:44,547
hmm, there's a drink being
passed around, yeah, why not?

418
00:21:46,081 --> 00:21:48,651
I remember sitting on the
couch at the crew house

419
00:21:48,684 --> 00:21:49,685
when Jen walked in

420
00:21:49,719 --> 00:21:52,054
and where we connected

421
00:21:52,087 --> 00:21:55,057
was she was game to have fun.

422
00:21:55,090 --> 00:21:59,094
I wanted to go surf five
a.m. and be at work by eight.

423
00:21:59,128 --> 00:22:01,597
Hand went up,
she's like, "I'm in."

424
00:22:01,631 --> 00:22:03,699
[Jennifer] Most people just
wanted to go to the bars.

425
00:22:03,733 --> 00:22:06,068
He was the only
person on the yacht

426
00:22:06,101 --> 00:22:07,470
that liked to surf
and run and skateboard

427
00:22:07,503 --> 00:22:10,005
and all the things I like to do.

428
00:22:10,039 --> 00:22:11,907
And we started hanging out more.

429
00:22:11,941 --> 00:22:14,944
And then we started dating.

430
00:22:14,977 --> 00:22:17,647
[Eduardo] She was
keen to dance, to play,

431
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:19,482
to express, to live.

432
00:22:20,215 --> 00:22:22,585
(laughing)

433
00:22:28,924 --> 00:22:31,126
[Man] Ed's walking.

434
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:34,029
[Eduardo] I think I
felt a responsibility

435
00:22:34,063 --> 00:22:35,798
to be tougher than
I should have been

436
00:22:35,831 --> 00:22:38,133
because of how hard everyone
was working around me.

437
00:22:38,167 --> 00:22:40,035
[Woman] Okay ready?
Turn around.

438
00:22:40,069 --> 00:22:41,136
[Eduardo] There's gonna
be someone else out there

439
00:22:41,170 --> 00:22:42,672
that has it worse than you do.

440
00:22:42,705 --> 00:22:45,541
Just be grateful for
what you do have.

441
00:22:45,575 --> 00:22:47,042
[Woman] Everything feel okay?

442
00:22:47,076 --> 00:22:49,545
Yeah, I wish I could
use this sucker.

443
00:22:49,579 --> 00:22:50,546
You can yeah.

444
00:22:51,681 --> 00:22:52,515
Pretend.

445
00:22:52,548 --> 00:22:53,949
Yeah.

446
00:22:53,983 --> 00:22:55,818
[Eduardo] Gotta pretend
he's doing something.

447
00:22:55,851 --> 00:22:58,721
That sucker has no
free rides, man.

448
00:23:01,924 --> 00:23:02,758
Thanks.

449
00:23:02,792 --> 00:23:03,826
[Nurse] You done?

450
00:23:03,859 --> 00:23:05,060
No, I'm not done.

451
00:23:05,094 --> 00:23:06,662
I'm just saying thanks.

452
00:23:06,696 --> 00:23:08,564
I appreciate it.

453
00:23:08,598 --> 00:23:10,065
[Nurse] No problem.

454
00:23:11,534 --> 00:23:13,202
This is my new
typing attachment.

455
00:23:13,235 --> 00:23:14,970
Gonna help me just
do some simple typing

456
00:23:15,004 --> 00:23:18,541
until I get my prosthetic
in, kinda cool.

457
00:23:20,543 --> 00:23:23,212
I never felt a fear for my life.

458
00:23:23,245 --> 00:23:27,149
I felt anxiety about
everyday matters of life,

459
00:23:27,182 --> 00:23:28,751
how I'd get back to life.

460
00:23:28,784 --> 00:23:30,520
This is awesome.

461
00:23:30,553 --> 00:23:31,587
That's great.

462
00:23:35,691 --> 00:23:37,159
I think hiking is gonna be

463
00:23:37,192 --> 00:23:40,496
some of the best
therapy I'll ever do.

464
00:23:42,297 --> 00:23:44,099
(exhales)

465
00:23:52,742 --> 00:23:55,811
You know, how am I
going to be me again?

466
00:24:11,661 --> 00:24:14,630
Not to be funny but
this is my first stab

467
00:24:14,664 --> 00:24:16,265
at working with a prosthetic

468
00:24:16,298 --> 00:24:18,668
or any attachment on lefty.

469
00:24:26,709 --> 00:24:28,243
Works.

470
00:24:28,277 --> 00:24:31,113
And Jen invented,
show the camera, Jen .

471
00:24:31,146 --> 00:24:33,082
Basically it's
this two foot fork

472
00:24:33,115 --> 00:24:35,851
and one end's for scratching,
one end's for eating,

473
00:24:35,885 --> 00:24:37,720
do not confuse the two.

474
00:24:39,722 --> 00:24:41,657
Thank you.
Well done you.

475
00:24:43,292 --> 00:24:45,728
I know it's kind
of weird for you.

476
00:24:45,761 --> 00:24:50,165
Not just kind of weird,
very, very messed up

477
00:24:50,199 --> 00:24:54,670
but well done you for hanging
in there 37 days with me

478
00:24:54,704 --> 00:24:58,674
and not abandoning me
for some other whatever.

479
00:25:07,216 --> 00:25:11,320
I wonder if I can just launch
this carrot at my face.

480
00:25:14,089 --> 00:25:14,890
Oh, yeah.

481
00:25:16,358 --> 00:25:18,761
[Jennifer] We had this
amazing relationship

482
00:25:18,794 --> 00:25:20,095
but I had two minds,

483
00:25:20,129 --> 00:25:21,731
part of me was telling me

484
00:25:21,764 --> 00:25:23,599
that Eduardo was the
most amazing guy ever

485
00:25:23,633 --> 00:25:25,835
and then the other part of
my brain was just telling me

486
00:25:25,868 --> 00:25:29,071
that something was going on,
he was disingenuous.

487
00:25:29,104 --> 00:25:31,206
He just said that
I was paranoid,

488
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:32,875
that I should shut up,

489
00:25:32,908 --> 00:25:35,745
that all of his friends
thought I was a mean person

490
00:25:35,778 --> 00:25:37,813
for even suggesting
such a thing.

491
00:25:37,847 --> 00:25:40,082
[Eduardo] And I didn't
make the connection

492
00:25:40,115 --> 00:25:42,618
that me cheating on
her would somehow

493
00:25:42,652 --> 00:25:45,955
subconsciously speak to her.

494
00:25:45,988 --> 00:25:48,190
And I don't remember
how I said it,

495
00:25:48,223 --> 00:25:52,695
I remember sitting on the
port side of the yacht

496
00:25:52,728 --> 00:25:54,196
and just spitting it out

497
00:25:55,898 --> 00:25:57,800
like there was this time,
there was that time,

498
00:25:57,833 --> 00:25:59,168
there was this time,
there was that time.

499
00:25:59,201 --> 00:26:01,671
And then I was just
destroyed, I think,

500
00:26:01,704 --> 00:26:04,674
because it wasn't this
kind of like one off thing

501
00:26:04,707 --> 00:26:08,944
it was actually kind of
two years of complete lies.

502
00:26:08,978 --> 00:26:10,913
He's been cheating
on me basically

503
00:26:10,946 --> 00:26:12,948
for most of our relationship,

504
00:26:12,982 --> 00:26:14,149
that just hurt.

505
00:26:16,752 --> 00:26:20,055
[Eduardo] It was a recurrence
of that same time when I was 17

506
00:26:20,089 --> 00:26:24,126
like shit, how have my
actions become actions

507
00:26:24,159 --> 00:26:27,096
that are hurting people,

508
00:26:27,129 --> 00:26:29,665
not who I want to be in life.

509
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:33,435
It was time to clean up my act.

510
00:26:33,468 --> 00:26:36,238
I came home for seven months,

511
00:26:36,271 --> 00:26:40,743
no drugs, no alcohol, just a
lot of time in the outdoors,

512
00:26:40,776 --> 00:26:42,745
a lot of time working.

513
00:26:42,778 --> 00:26:45,781
I was so depressed,

514
00:26:45,815 --> 00:26:47,249
so physically ill.

515
00:26:49,952 --> 00:26:52,955
I had this cabin in Montana
that was really rough

516
00:26:52,988 --> 00:26:54,990
and I remember fixing
up the interior

517
00:26:55,024 --> 00:26:57,993
with a goal that maybe
Jen'll come back to Montana,

518
00:26:58,027 --> 00:26:59,695
no expectations,

519
00:26:59,729 --> 00:27:02,832
I don't need you to get
back together with me.

520
00:27:02,865 --> 00:27:03,833
[Jennifer] Despite everything,

521
00:27:03,866 --> 00:27:05,034
you love who you love

522
00:27:05,067 --> 00:27:07,269
and I wanted
to be there for him

523
00:27:07,302 --> 00:27:10,239
and help him get
through everything.

524
00:27:16,145 --> 00:27:18,247
[Eduardo] It
was the first time

525
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:21,216
her and I had been in the
same space clean and clear.

526
00:27:23,986 --> 00:27:26,822
[Jennifer] He was
definitely trying to show me

527
00:27:26,856 --> 00:27:30,059
that he was somebody that
now did actually care.

528
00:27:30,092 --> 00:27:32,728
So when I have my
ridiculous photo ideas

529
00:27:32,762 --> 00:27:34,063
he was up for that.

530
00:27:37,399 --> 00:27:40,302
[Eduardo] When we start
talking about something

531
00:27:40,335 --> 00:27:43,138
and we're both into it,
it's unstoppable

532
00:27:43,172 --> 00:27:45,941
the amount of ideas
that come out.

533
00:27:49,311 --> 00:27:52,247
I left my full time career as
a yacht chef after a decade

534
00:27:52,281 --> 00:27:56,451
and I was ready for
a career change.

535
00:27:56,485 --> 00:27:59,822
Together with Jen,
my brother, my sister,

536
00:28:01,356 --> 00:28:05,294
we started a food company
called Montana Mex.

537
00:28:05,327 --> 00:28:06,395
[Jennifer] And on top of that,

538
00:28:06,428 --> 00:28:07,997
we started planning

539
00:28:08,030 --> 00:28:10,532
for Eduardo to have a
outdoor cooking show.

540
00:28:10,565 --> 00:28:12,334
Rolling.

541
00:28:12,367 --> 00:28:15,037
[Jennifer] We're just
on a rampage of creativity

542
00:28:15,070 --> 00:28:16,939
and it was super fun.

543
00:28:18,908 --> 00:28:20,910
[Eduardo] That's when
I got to know Jen ,

544
00:28:20,943 --> 00:28:22,077
like the business part of Jen ,

545
00:28:22,111 --> 00:28:23,846
the intellectual part of Jen ,

546
00:28:23,879 --> 00:28:24,880
the creative part of Jen ,

547
00:28:24,914 --> 00:28:27,049
the challenging parts of Jen.

548
00:28:27,082 --> 00:28:29,084
Look how big our ducks are.

549
00:28:30,986 --> 00:28:34,890
That was the beginning of
our friendship for sure.

550
00:28:37,592 --> 00:28:39,361
And I put this on it

551
00:28:41,196 --> 00:28:46,969
because otherwise
when I'm in bed

552
00:28:47,002 --> 00:28:49,004
it will just keep me up.

553
00:28:49,038 --> 00:28:51,040
You've been doing it
that same way every night?

554
00:28:51,073 --> 00:28:52,007
Yeah.

555
00:28:52,041 --> 00:28:53,375
Really?

556
00:28:53,408 --> 00:28:55,911
Yeah.
I don't know, I don't feel

557
00:28:55,945 --> 00:28:57,012
like I need to sleep in
a real bed at all really,

558
00:28:57,046 --> 00:28:58,013
it's fine.

559
00:29:00,082 --> 00:29:01,817
It was a very bizarre situation

560
00:29:01,851 --> 00:29:03,552
'cause you're trying
to care for somebody

561
00:29:03,585 --> 00:29:05,354
who is going through
the pit of hell

562
00:29:05,387 --> 00:29:06,388
but at the same time,

563
00:29:06,421 --> 00:29:07,990
I also had all these things

564
00:29:08,023 --> 00:29:10,392
from obviously the relationship

565
00:29:10,425 --> 00:29:12,995
that Ed and I had previously.

566
00:29:14,029 --> 00:29:15,064
Did you make it?

567
00:29:15,097 --> 00:29:16,065
No, it was so close.

568
00:29:16,098 --> 00:29:18,067
It landed right side up.

569
00:29:18,100 --> 00:29:19,568
Try it again, try it again.

570
00:29:19,601 --> 00:29:21,837
Ugh, that's even worse.

571
00:29:24,039 --> 00:29:26,608
Obviously annoys me at times
but I love him,

572
00:29:26,641 --> 00:29:29,011
I've loved him a long time.

573
00:29:31,213 --> 00:29:33,048
I will always love him.

574
00:29:39,989 --> 00:29:42,457
[Man] Please breathe
in and hold your breath.

575
00:29:47,162 --> 00:29:50,165
Start breathing again.

576
00:29:50,199 --> 00:29:53,135
[Amalia Cochran] The testicle
that had been damaged

577
00:29:53,168 --> 00:29:56,038
from the electrical
injury was not viable

578
00:29:56,071 --> 00:29:58,173
and there was no way for
us to help it survive.

579
00:29:58,207 --> 00:30:01,143
So that's discussion number
one that we're having

580
00:30:01,176 --> 00:30:04,346
with a young healthy guy
and his family

581
00:30:04,379 --> 00:30:08,383
about it is our recommendation
that we do this.

582
00:30:08,417 --> 00:30:09,518
[Jennifer] For
whatever reason,

583
00:30:09,551 --> 00:30:11,086
he chose me to be the signer.

584
00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:12,922
Especially because of
the cheating thing,

585
00:30:12,955 --> 00:30:14,423
it's like almost hilarious

586
00:30:14,456 --> 00:30:17,059
this sense that the ex
girlfriend that was cheated on

587
00:30:17,092 --> 00:30:19,028
got to sign away his testicle.

588
00:30:19,061 --> 00:30:21,296
[Doctor] Your charts look good,
your blood looks good,

589
00:30:21,330 --> 00:30:23,933
you kind of went through
the basic and then

590
00:30:23,966 --> 00:30:26,101
but we got some bad news.

591
00:30:26,135 --> 00:30:28,170
The pathology report pops up

592
00:30:28,203 --> 00:30:32,074
and low and behold there's
a testicular cancer.

593
00:30:34,276 --> 00:30:36,045
[Eduardo] Are you kidding me?

594
00:30:36,078 --> 00:30:40,082
My focus right now is figuring
out how to be an amputee,

595
00:30:40,115 --> 00:30:42,317
other surgeries
that are ongoing,

596
00:30:42,351 --> 00:30:45,587
picking myself up out of
the ground for the most part

597
00:30:45,620 --> 00:30:50,059
and on top of that you're
asking me to deal with cancer?

598
00:30:50,092 --> 00:30:51,160
[Jennifer] And that's
when they realized

599
00:30:51,193 --> 00:30:52,661
it was second stage

600
00:30:52,694 --> 00:30:55,998
because he had a tumor
halfway up his spine as well.

601
00:30:56,031 --> 00:30:59,268
[Eduardo] Any chance to
see that tumor clot on my?

602
00:30:59,301 --> 00:31:00,335
[Man] Yeah.

603
00:31:00,369 --> 00:31:02,604
That's big, man.

604
00:31:02,637 --> 00:31:04,273
[Jennifer] Basically

605
00:31:04,306 --> 00:31:06,108
they couldn't do all the
reconstructive surgeries

606
00:31:06,141 --> 00:31:09,578
because he needed to get
not chemotherapy immediately

607
00:31:09,611 --> 00:31:11,146
before it went to his brain.

608
00:31:11,180 --> 00:31:13,548
So...

609
00:31:13,582 --> 00:31:16,118
I forgot one.

610
00:31:16,151 --> 00:31:19,221
It just became my
norm being in ICU,

611
00:31:19,254 --> 00:31:21,090
you know what I mean?

612
00:31:21,123 --> 00:31:22,357
It became my norm.

613
00:31:24,526 --> 00:31:26,128
[Jennifer] How do you feel?

614
00:31:26,161 --> 00:31:27,629
Mechanical.

615
00:31:27,662 --> 00:31:29,098
[Jennifer] But in a cool way?

616
00:31:29,131 --> 00:31:30,632
Yeah, I think so.

617
00:31:31,700 --> 00:31:33,568
I think I was actually terrified

618
00:31:33,602 --> 00:31:35,370
to leave the hospital.

619
00:31:38,340 --> 00:31:41,410
The doctors in the burn unit

620
00:31:41,443 --> 00:31:47,049
decided I was healthy
enough to go home

621
00:31:47,082 --> 00:31:49,051
or leave the hospital today.

622
00:31:50,552 --> 00:31:52,554
So we packed up our stuff

623
00:31:54,423 --> 00:31:57,226
and put it in the truck.

624
00:31:57,259 --> 00:32:00,229
Pretty amazing that
we're out of here,

625
00:32:02,531 --> 00:32:05,234
pretty fucking
glad I didn't die.

626
00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:13,142
I don't have my left hand.

627
00:32:17,212 --> 00:32:20,449
But otherwise we're
in really great shape,

628
00:32:21,583 --> 00:32:23,285
really great shape.

629
00:32:29,224 --> 00:32:31,193
I think I got over there

630
00:32:31,226 --> 00:32:33,395
two or three days
after he was discharged

631
00:32:33,428 --> 00:32:37,299
and I worried about them both.

632
00:32:37,332 --> 00:32:38,800
Although they were
pulling together,

633
00:32:38,833 --> 00:32:41,370
there was an atmosphere

634
00:32:41,403 --> 00:32:44,039
because they were
both so exhausted,

635
00:32:44,073 --> 00:32:45,307
both so exhausted.

636
00:32:46,608 --> 00:32:48,777
(laughing)

637
00:32:54,249 --> 00:32:56,351
We didn't know what
to do for Christmas

638
00:32:56,385 --> 00:32:59,621
and I think I'll
never, ever forget

639
00:32:59,654 --> 00:33:03,692
the fact that we decided to
go to Arches National Park

640
00:33:06,261 --> 00:33:09,598
and it was just unbelievable

641
00:33:09,631 --> 00:33:10,799
when I could see Ed's face

642
00:33:10,832 --> 00:33:13,502
thinking that even he had said

643
00:33:13,535 --> 00:33:16,271
he never thought
that would happen.

644
00:33:16,305 --> 00:33:17,806
(laughing)

645
00:33:17,839 --> 00:33:19,541
[Eduardo] What's
happening now?

646
00:33:19,574 --> 00:33:22,244
Let's check it out,
let's check it out.

647
00:33:22,277 --> 00:33:25,480
Just stay shoulders right
over your feet, okay?

648
00:33:25,514 --> 00:33:27,616
Yeah, you're good,
it's no problem.

649
00:33:27,649 --> 00:33:29,651
Look at Jen and your feet.

650
00:33:31,353 --> 00:33:33,555
[Corinne] Then they got
me across this high thing

651
00:33:33,588 --> 00:33:36,758
that was so steep I didn't
think I'd get across

652
00:33:36,791 --> 00:33:38,260
but he said,
"No, you're scared,

653
00:33:38,293 --> 00:33:40,162
"we'll get you across this."

654
00:33:40,195 --> 00:33:41,430
[Eduardo] Take it like that,

655
00:33:41,463 --> 00:33:43,232
two, three steps
at a time, pause,

656
00:33:43,265 --> 00:33:45,367
two, three, don't think
of it as a big wall,

657
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:47,402
okay, very good, very good.

658
00:33:48,470 --> 00:33:49,871
You did great.

659
00:33:49,904 --> 00:33:53,275
That was, this is
just fear, isn't it?

660
00:33:55,544 --> 00:33:57,379
He'd survived,

661
00:33:57,412 --> 00:33:58,880
nothing else, the fact
that he'd survived through

662
00:33:58,913 --> 00:34:00,482
in a wonderful place.

663
00:34:01,650 --> 00:34:04,819
[Eduardo] She's insane, huh?

664
00:34:04,853 --> 00:34:09,391
Ed was, even at
that very short space

665
00:34:09,424 --> 00:34:11,693
that he'd been out
of hospital,

666
00:34:11,726 --> 00:34:13,262
no one would guess that
he was going through

667
00:34:13,295 --> 00:34:14,663
what he was going through.

668
00:34:19,868 --> 00:34:23,305
[Eduardo] I don't remember
the day I arrived home.

669
00:34:23,338 --> 00:34:25,607
It must have been
momentous in that sense

670
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:28,310
but I don't remember
walking in

671
00:34:28,343 --> 00:34:29,644
to my house
for the first time

672
00:34:29,678 --> 00:34:31,380
and opening the door.

673
00:34:32,947 --> 00:34:35,884
What I remember was
wanting to hide,

674
00:34:37,352 --> 00:34:39,321
I don't even know why.

675
00:34:39,354 --> 00:34:41,590
Locally I live in
a small community.

676
00:34:41,623 --> 00:34:44,659
They knew I had
been electrocuted.

677
00:34:44,693 --> 00:34:47,162
You couldn't hide that
I was missing a hand

678
00:34:47,196 --> 00:34:48,197
but you know what,

679
00:34:48,230 --> 00:34:49,198
I could hide the fact

680
00:34:49,231 --> 00:34:51,633
that I was going through cancer.

681
00:34:52,867 --> 00:34:57,806
Today is February the seventh

682
00:34:57,839 --> 00:35:01,610
and it's official,
my hair is falling out.

683
00:35:01,643 --> 00:35:02,544
Bucket.

684
00:35:06,248 --> 00:35:07,782
You see that?

685
00:35:09,551 --> 00:35:13,422
Bink, how disgusting.

686
00:35:13,455 --> 00:35:18,193
Bink, bink, oh my.

687
00:35:18,227 --> 00:35:20,195
Jen, do you want to try this?

688
00:35:20,229 --> 00:35:20,895
You might enjoy it.

689
00:35:20,929 --> 00:35:22,364
[Jennifer] I will.

690
00:35:22,397 --> 00:35:23,632
Holy, look at that.

691
00:35:23,665 --> 00:35:26,701
[Jennifer] I can
make a bald patch.

692
00:35:28,437 --> 00:35:30,405
Hey, baby, do it
systematically.

693
00:35:30,439 --> 00:35:31,840
[Jennifer] I'm
turning you into my dad.

694
00:35:31,873 --> 00:35:33,275
Look at you.

695
00:35:33,308 --> 00:35:35,910
[Jennifer] This
is just like my dad.

696
00:35:35,944 --> 00:35:37,379
Does it not hurt at all?

697
00:35:37,412 --> 00:35:39,514
This is excellent fun.

698
00:35:39,548 --> 00:35:42,784
No, if it hurt,
I would ask you to stop.

699
00:35:43,885 --> 00:35:45,220
It hurts a little.

700
00:35:46,521 --> 00:35:48,423
Grab a clump and
just go for it but.

701
00:35:48,457 --> 00:35:49,324
Pink.

702
00:35:50,692 --> 00:35:53,662
It's literally
like having a cat.

703
00:35:53,695 --> 00:35:56,265
You've always wanted a cat.

704
00:35:58,467 --> 00:36:00,569
(slow music)

705
00:36:02,504 --> 00:36:04,473
(laughing)

706
00:36:08,477 --> 00:36:10,945
(dramatic music)

707
00:36:17,619 --> 00:36:18,787
[Jennifer] How are you doing?

708
00:36:18,820 --> 00:36:20,655
I'm hanging in there.

709
00:36:23,725 --> 00:36:25,494
It's been a long week.

710
00:36:27,529 --> 00:36:30,765
Pretty nauseous almost
every day this week

711
00:36:31,933 --> 00:36:34,269
but we're hanging in there.

712
00:36:34,303 --> 00:36:36,371
I'm getting my pick
line taken out today

713
00:36:36,405 --> 00:36:37,539
so it'll be nice.

714
00:36:42,977 --> 00:36:44,513
[Jennifer] Happy?

715
00:36:45,614 --> 00:36:46,781
Yeah, thanks.

716
00:36:48,783 --> 00:36:50,819
[Nurse] You're welcome.

717
00:36:52,887 --> 00:36:55,590
Back on Monday,
Monday at noon.

718
00:37:00,862 --> 00:37:02,397
[Jennifer] When he was
going through everything

719
00:37:02,431 --> 00:37:05,367
the priority was get
him rehabilitated

720
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:07,402
and get him back to life.

721
00:37:08,703 --> 00:37:10,505
But further down the list

722
00:37:10,539 --> 00:37:13,608
is what is the deal with
our relationship as a whole?

723
00:37:13,642 --> 00:37:17,078
How are we gonna get
out of this as friends?

724
00:37:17,111 --> 00:37:19,881
What's gonna happen
in the future?

725
00:37:33,728 --> 00:37:36,431
(hens crowing)

726
00:37:38,032 --> 00:37:39,701
The doubt didn't start

727
00:37:39,734 --> 00:37:43,538
until I tried actually
getting back to life again.

728
00:37:47,576 --> 00:37:50,412
All of a sudden overnight
at 30 years old,

729
00:37:50,445 --> 00:37:53,948
I had to rethink how to do
every single task.

730
00:37:57,552 --> 00:38:01,590
Ashes is one of my favorite
place to hike anywhere.

731
00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:09,864
You now had my mom, Jen , my
sister, my brother, my dad,

732
00:38:11,500 --> 00:38:14,803
take a bear spray,
don't hike alone.

733
00:38:14,836 --> 00:38:17,539
Really concerned
about my ability

734
00:38:19,608 --> 00:38:22,877
to be the guy I was
a few months before.

735
00:38:28,450 --> 00:38:29,818
[Jennifer] Ed losing his hand

736
00:38:29,851 --> 00:38:31,720
is really something
that everybody sees

737
00:38:31,753 --> 00:38:33,822
but not many people know

738
00:38:33,855 --> 00:38:36,491
that he also lost so
much of his muscle mass

739
00:38:36,525 --> 00:38:38,660
from his torso, from
his legs, from his arms.

740
00:38:38,693 --> 00:38:40,161
The fact is that he operates

741
00:38:40,194 --> 00:38:43,465
with way less muscle
than most of us do.

742
00:38:47,536 --> 00:38:49,638
[Eduardo] It's such a
horrible thing, you know,

743
00:38:49,671 --> 00:38:51,406
to have someone care for you

744
00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:54,609
and for you to
think, "Hey back off,

745
00:38:54,643 --> 00:38:58,913
I need a moment to see
if I can do this again.

746
00:38:58,947 --> 00:39:01,750
Give me a second
to fail on my own."

747
00:39:15,163 --> 00:39:17,666
[Jennifer] I think what a
lot of people see with recovery

748
00:39:17,699 --> 00:39:22,203
is this grand coming
out of oh I'm recovered

749
00:39:22,236 --> 00:39:25,006
and actually it isn't that.

750
00:39:25,039 --> 00:39:27,208
It's this kind of
never-ending process

751
00:39:27,241 --> 00:39:29,644
of a million little
achievements.

752
00:39:30,612 --> 00:39:32,514
Undoing these knots

753
00:39:32,547 --> 00:39:35,817
is definitely proving to
be a little more difficult

754
00:39:35,850 --> 00:39:38,453
but I don't think undoing knots

755
00:39:38,487 --> 00:39:41,456
is ever easy for anybody.

756
00:39:41,490 --> 00:39:42,591
There it goes.

757
00:39:45,627 --> 00:39:47,128
That's a deer.

758
00:39:54,603 --> 00:39:57,539
I love to hike for elk antlers

759
00:39:57,572 --> 00:39:59,741
and my goal was I want
to be able to hike

760
00:39:59,774 --> 00:40:02,110
a solid eight miles
into the back country

761
00:40:02,143 --> 00:40:04,145
and feel strong about it.

762
00:40:08,717 --> 00:40:11,653
Being outdoors was
my recovery, 110%

763
00:40:11,686 --> 00:40:13,755
and that was where I,

764
00:40:13,788 --> 00:40:15,690
it was my way
of rehabilitating.

765
00:40:15,724 --> 00:40:17,526
That's a heavy pack.

766
00:40:33,274 --> 00:40:34,976
I would get home at 5 p.m.

767
00:40:35,009 --> 00:40:37,512
and there'd be a race.

768
00:40:37,546 --> 00:40:40,949
If I couldn't get a meal
under my belt by six,

769
00:40:40,982 --> 00:40:44,786
I would be too sick
to cook a meal,

770
00:40:44,819 --> 00:40:46,721
I would lose all interest.

771
00:40:48,256 --> 00:40:49,858
I guess as a bonus,

772
00:40:49,891 --> 00:40:51,660
I don't have to worry

773
00:40:51,693 --> 00:40:53,562
about cutting the fingers

774
00:40:53,595 --> 00:40:56,230
off of my left hand
anymore when I'm chopping.

775
00:40:56,264 --> 00:40:58,867
I'd be pretty crushed if
I couldn't cook anymore,

776
00:40:58,900 --> 00:41:00,134
be pretty crushed.

777
00:41:03,872 --> 00:41:06,841
It was only until
I actually started

778
00:41:06,875 --> 00:41:09,544
getting back into
trying to cook again

779
00:41:09,578 --> 00:41:11,145
that it all started to click.

780
00:41:11,179 --> 00:41:13,014
I'm like, "Wait a minute,

781
00:41:13,047 --> 00:41:15,249
my career is built off of
the ability to work quickly,

782
00:41:15,283 --> 00:41:17,118
efficiently with my hands.

783
00:41:17,151 --> 00:41:21,623
Fuck, I got one
hand and a forearm."

784
00:41:27,896 --> 00:41:29,631
That's hot.

785
00:41:42,977 --> 00:41:45,747
We knew that my
chemotherapy treatments

786
00:41:45,780 --> 00:41:47,181
would be a three-month ordeal

787
00:41:47,215 --> 00:41:48,850
and we just had to survive that

788
00:41:48,883 --> 00:41:53,755
and the day it ended my
focus immediately shifted

789
00:41:53,788 --> 00:41:56,190
to, "Okay, let's get back
to recovery.

790
00:41:56,224 --> 00:41:57,692
We've got a long
list of things

791
00:41:57,726 --> 00:41:59,894
that still need
to be healed."

792
00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:13,875
[Jennifer] Do you want
to describe what was here

793
00:42:13,908 --> 00:42:15,877
when you were electrocuted?

794
00:42:20,982 --> 00:42:24,152
Not a big box with
working locks on it.

795
00:42:27,288 --> 00:42:31,826
I'd have probably stumbled
straight down here.

796
00:42:31,860 --> 00:42:33,261
Let's see if it goes
to a road.

797
00:42:33,294 --> 00:42:35,096
[Jennifer] Yeah,
you want to follow it?

798
00:42:35,129 --> 00:42:37,131
-Yeah.
-[Jennifer] Okay.

799
00:42:37,165 --> 00:42:39,634
I don't know if I saw
some of these trees.

800
00:42:41,235 --> 00:42:43,705
Incredible, I can't remember.

801
00:42:48,677 --> 00:42:53,347
I didn't like being up there
standing next to that box.

802
00:42:53,381 --> 00:42:54,315
It was hard.

803
00:42:58,019 --> 00:43:01,823
Trying not to feel anger
through this whole event

804
00:43:01,856 --> 00:43:04,292
and then you go back to the
site where you nearly died

805
00:43:04,325 --> 00:43:05,927
and you're looking at it

806
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:09,030
and it's...

807
00:43:09,063 --> 00:43:13,001
locked up,
posted, sealed,

808
00:43:13,034 --> 00:43:17,171
huge padlocks,
shut down, safe.

809
00:43:17,205 --> 00:43:18,439
That's how it should've been

810
00:43:18,472 --> 00:43:20,842
when I was up here hiking.

811
00:43:20,875 --> 00:43:22,677
That's how it should've been.

812
00:43:22,711 --> 00:43:24,813
It angered me to see that.

813
00:43:30,284 --> 00:43:33,221
One tiny event can
rock you so hard.

814
00:43:39,460 --> 00:43:42,396
I didn't feel a need to
stay there for too long,

815
00:43:42,430 --> 00:43:43,431
it turned me.

816
00:44:07,355 --> 00:44:08,289
Hello.

817
00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:15,897
(speaking in Spanish)

818
00:44:17,265 --> 00:44:19,067
Dad, you're here
early though, man.

819
00:44:19,100 --> 00:44:20,001
[Manuel] Huh?

820
00:44:20,034 --> 00:44:22,837
(speaking in Spanish)

821
00:44:22,871 --> 00:44:24,806
I was totally joking with dad

822
00:44:24,839 --> 00:44:27,075
but I guess he's here to work.

823
00:44:28,442 --> 00:44:29,744
That's harder.

824
00:44:38,086 --> 00:44:39,420
Isn't that weird?

825
00:44:39,453 --> 00:44:41,923
You see the circulation
missing in that finger?

826
00:44:41,956 --> 00:44:44,759
It just gets,
they get cold.

827
00:44:44,793 --> 00:44:47,762
I think there's nerve
damage or something.

828
00:44:47,796 --> 00:44:48,963
The scar's healing nicely.

829
00:44:48,997 --> 00:44:50,331
Yeah.

830
00:44:50,364 --> 00:44:52,066
I'm glad it's
got nice and flat.

831
00:44:52,100 --> 00:44:52,934
Try to open it up a little bit.

832
00:44:52,967 --> 00:44:53,968
That's better,

833
00:44:54,002 --> 00:44:54,936
you got some blood to it now.

834
00:44:54,969 --> 00:44:55,837
Good job, Indra.

835
00:44:55,870 --> 00:44:57,238
Yeah.

836
00:44:57,271 --> 00:44:58,506
[Jennifer] When we
were in the hospital,

837
00:44:58,539 --> 00:45:00,208
Indra and I,

838
00:45:00,241 --> 00:45:02,510
we'd like shamelessly get
out all of our paperwork

839
00:45:02,543 --> 00:45:05,046
and we'd be running our company.

840
00:45:05,079 --> 00:45:07,548
Let's make sure
that our company

841
00:45:07,581 --> 00:45:10,018
doesn't go completely under.

842
00:45:10,051 --> 00:45:11,452
We've got stuff to do,

843
00:45:11,485 --> 00:45:13,321
we've got stuff that
needs to happen,

844
00:45:13,354 --> 00:45:17,458
we have things that need to
not be lost because of this.

845
00:45:27,035 --> 00:45:29,370
[Eduardo] That will come off.

846
00:45:31,005 --> 00:45:32,773
[Man] There you go.

847
00:45:36,845 --> 00:45:39,313
[Eduardo] That's pretty cool.

848
00:45:39,347 --> 00:45:40,214
[Man] So how you
gonna trigger it?

849
00:45:40,248 --> 00:45:41,515
Just bring it up.

850
00:45:41,549 --> 00:45:43,284
Oh, just click
it on your cheek.

851
00:45:43,317 --> 00:45:44,352
Oh, there you go.

852
00:45:44,385 --> 00:45:45,386
Yeah.

853
00:45:45,419 --> 00:45:46,821
Alright.

854
00:45:46,855 --> 00:45:49,123
There was one
online for 1,100 bucks

855
00:45:49,157 --> 00:45:51,092
and I figured
we could make one

856
00:45:51,125 --> 00:45:54,528
so it's like I'm $33
into it right now.

857
00:45:54,562 --> 00:45:58,900
And exactly,
and Montana style.

858
00:46:31,199 --> 00:46:35,103
I mean, I think we could tweak
it maybe a little more but,

859
00:46:38,306 --> 00:46:39,340
You got this?

860
00:46:56,457 --> 00:46:57,258
Jesus.

861
00:47:06,100 --> 00:47:09,938
Alright, step one.

862
00:47:09,971 --> 00:47:12,106
[Eduardo] I like it.

863
00:47:12,140 --> 00:47:14,675
Super lightweight, super
strong, it's cleanable.

864
00:47:14,708 --> 00:47:16,177
It's just a--

865
00:47:16,210 --> 00:47:17,411
You guys are doing
this right here?

866
00:47:17,445 --> 00:47:18,279
This is what we're
about to build?

867
00:47:18,312 --> 00:47:19,147
Yeah.

868
00:47:19,180 --> 00:47:20,514
That's so neat.

869
00:47:23,084 --> 00:47:24,152
What's going on?

870
00:47:35,263 --> 00:47:36,664
(whirring)

871
00:47:36,697 --> 00:47:39,167
(hammering)

872
00:47:40,501 --> 00:47:43,537
It's pretty just phenomenal

873
00:47:43,571 --> 00:47:45,706
to be able to sit in
this shop all day long,

874
00:47:45,739 --> 00:47:50,044
make these little changes
almost immediately,

875
00:47:50,078 --> 00:47:52,213
go back and forth,
go back and forth

876
00:47:52,246 --> 00:47:55,016
without having to ship a
product back to the maker

877
00:47:55,049 --> 00:47:56,284
and then get it a week later,

878
00:47:56,317 --> 00:47:58,186
that kind of a process.

879
00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:00,421
That was quick.

880
00:48:11,665 --> 00:48:12,700
I'm ready to take it off.

881
00:48:12,733 --> 00:48:14,335
Yeah, let's do this.

882
00:48:16,137 --> 00:48:19,207
That's it, destruction,
it did well, that thing,

883
00:48:19,240 --> 00:48:22,543
that thing's done well.

884
00:48:26,614 --> 00:48:27,681
It's pretty cool.

885
00:48:29,450 --> 00:48:31,352
I think I'm gonna have a
hard time beating this up.

886
00:48:31,385 --> 00:48:33,087
It'll be like a new surf board.

887
00:48:33,121 --> 00:48:34,722
Once you get the first
ding the it'll be alright

888
00:48:34,755 --> 00:48:39,060
but until then, polish it off
at the end of every night.

889
00:48:41,762 --> 00:48:43,331
Crank down.

890
00:48:43,364 --> 00:48:44,398
Crank it down so
you can really just--

891
00:48:44,432 --> 00:48:46,500
Do a pull up.

892
00:48:46,534 --> 00:48:49,670
Yeah, and that's kind of
when it's gonna be necessary.

893
00:49:03,717 --> 00:49:06,320
[Woman] Nice, wow, fantastic.

894
00:49:08,122 --> 00:49:08,722
Good work.

895
00:49:10,224 --> 00:49:12,126
That's a start.

896
00:49:13,794 --> 00:49:16,397
The guy before the injury,

897
00:49:16,430 --> 00:49:18,699
very confident about
where I was in life

898
00:49:18,732 --> 00:49:24,238
to overnight being a guy
with one hand instead of two,

899
00:49:24,272 --> 00:49:25,506
holes in my ribcage,

900
00:49:25,539 --> 00:49:27,775
cancer also on top of that.

901
00:49:27,808 --> 00:49:30,411
A year worth of
surgeries in front of me,

902
00:49:30,444 --> 00:49:34,348
no idea what my long term
capacities were gonna be,

903
00:49:36,284 --> 00:49:39,287
and no idea if I
could even go back

904
00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:43,424
to the career that I'd
worked since I was 15 on.

905
00:49:43,457 --> 00:49:44,492
There you go.

906
00:49:44,525 --> 00:49:47,761
See if you come over here, Sam,

907
00:49:47,795 --> 00:49:52,100
see it's almost like the
snow kept it from freezing

908
00:49:52,133 --> 00:49:53,534
on top of something.

909
00:50:00,374 --> 00:50:01,842
Except for the one thing,

910
00:50:01,875 --> 00:50:03,711
never doubting
that I would live.

911
00:50:03,744 --> 00:50:06,347
The second my eyes opened
on that forest floor

912
00:50:06,380 --> 00:50:07,615
and I had a heartbeat,

913
00:50:07,648 --> 00:50:09,483
I'm gonna get myself
out of here

914
00:50:09,517 --> 00:50:13,621
and I'm gonna get myself
back to that, back to life.

915
00:50:36,710 --> 00:50:39,513
[Jennifer] How
you doing today, Ed?

916
00:50:39,547 --> 00:50:40,781
I'm good.

917
00:50:40,814 --> 00:50:42,216
I'm about to fly
out to New Mexico

918
00:50:42,250 --> 00:50:43,484
for this catering gig

919
00:50:43,517 --> 00:50:45,386
so getting my knives sharpened,

920
00:50:45,419 --> 00:50:49,190
feeling a little time
crunched right now.

921
00:50:49,223 --> 00:50:51,325
I was just looking around

922
00:50:51,359 --> 00:50:53,327
and it's pretty awesome place
to be sharpening your knives,

923
00:50:53,361 --> 00:50:55,463
out in your front yard.

924
00:50:55,496 --> 00:50:56,297
I like it.

925
00:51:03,471 --> 00:51:04,338
So marinade for the?

926
00:51:04,372 --> 00:51:07,375
Yeah, dry, dry rub.

927
00:51:07,408 --> 00:51:11,545
Ranga and I are doing
a little at home testing

928
00:51:11,579 --> 00:51:14,182
for this catering gig.

929
00:51:14,215 --> 00:51:15,883
It's quite a big function.

930
00:51:15,916 --> 00:51:19,420
It's over the course
of a week, 150 people.

931
00:51:20,688 --> 00:51:22,490
Working with guests

932
00:51:22,523 --> 00:51:25,426
and what are people gonna
think about the crazy hand

933
00:51:25,459 --> 00:51:28,429
and I like the way
this one looks.

934
00:51:28,462 --> 00:51:32,333
I feel more confident
with it, that's for sure.

935
00:51:47,981 --> 00:51:51,385
I haven't put one of
these on in almost a year.

936
00:51:52,920 --> 00:51:54,488
That's the longest
time I've ever gone

937
00:51:54,522 --> 00:51:58,359
without putting one of
these on since I was 15.

938
00:51:59,527 --> 00:52:01,762
(upbeat music)

939
00:52:03,264 --> 00:52:04,332
Firing it up.

940
00:52:11,539 --> 00:52:13,841
Ranga, these
hors d'oeuvres can go.

941
00:52:15,443 --> 00:52:16,410
Guys how far are you

942
00:52:16,444 --> 00:52:18,246
on having a single platter done?

943
00:52:18,279 --> 00:52:20,381
Guess.
Two minutes?

944
00:52:20,414 --> 00:52:22,483
-Uh, three.
-Let's go.

945
00:52:22,516 --> 00:52:24,818
(upbeat music)

946
00:52:27,020 --> 00:52:29,557
Summer squash salad,
thank you.

947
00:52:31,259 --> 00:52:32,560
Put that with the vinaigrette,

948
00:52:32,593 --> 00:52:35,663
feel free to splash some
shrimp, send it out.

949
00:52:35,696 --> 00:52:36,830
Thank you.

950
00:52:36,864 --> 00:52:38,566
Hold up, they're calling me.

951
00:52:38,599 --> 00:52:40,968
It's Jen , I'm a little busy.

952
00:52:45,539 --> 00:52:47,441
That's perfect, get it in.

953
00:52:53,547 --> 00:52:54,348
Awesome.

954
00:52:56,784 --> 00:52:57,585
Ah.

955
00:53:00,354 --> 00:53:01,655
Nice work, Jeff.

956
00:53:01,689 --> 00:53:04,358
[Jeff] You're
working too hard.

957
00:53:08,429 --> 00:53:10,298
It's August 4th,
it's my birthday,

958
00:53:10,331 --> 00:53:11,465
I turn 31 today.

959
00:53:11,499 --> 00:53:13,634
I didn't die this last fall.

960
00:53:13,667 --> 00:53:17,037
I've been thinking about
that yesterday and today.

961
00:53:17,070 --> 00:53:18,739
I could not be here.

962
00:53:18,772 --> 00:53:20,908
It could've been game
over but it wasn't.

963
00:53:20,941 --> 00:53:24,945
* Happy birthday to you

964
00:53:24,978 --> 00:53:28,749
* Happy birthday dear Eduardo

965
00:53:30,584 --> 00:53:34,388
* Happy birthday to you

966
00:53:34,422 --> 00:53:36,624
(clapping)

967
00:53:39,827 --> 00:53:40,928
Thanks, guys.

968
00:53:44,097 --> 00:53:46,400
(yelling)

969
00:53:47,601 --> 00:53:48,569
Thank you.

970
00:53:52,673 --> 00:53:54,575
[Woman] Have you had
any surgeries or anything

971
00:53:54,608 --> 00:53:55,676
since we last saw you?

972
00:53:55,709 --> 00:53:56,544
No.

973
00:53:56,577 --> 00:53:57,845
[Woman] Okay.

974
00:54:00,981 --> 00:54:04,418
[Eduardo] I have a
check up every six months.

975
00:54:04,452 --> 00:54:08,656
I don't know if I'm gonna
get good or bad news.

976
00:54:08,689 --> 00:54:12,360
[Woman] Take a deep
breath in and hold it.

977
00:54:14,495 --> 00:54:16,797
I'm happy to say that
today I'm cancer free,

978
00:54:16,830 --> 00:54:18,699
I'm a survivor

979
00:54:18,732 --> 00:54:23,671
and I don't know what is gonna
happen six months from now

980
00:54:23,704 --> 00:54:25,739
and that's always
on my mind a little

981
00:54:25,773 --> 00:54:29,377
but I'm not gonna let
that take control of me.

982
00:54:30,944 --> 00:54:34,815
Haven't used you since
Costa Rica, have we?

983
00:54:34,848 --> 00:54:36,717
You're gonna be a mess.

984
00:54:36,750 --> 00:54:40,588
University of Utah Burn
Center, Eduardo Garcia,

985
00:54:40,621 --> 00:54:42,856
"Bethany Hamilton
surfboard handle kit.

986
00:54:42,890 --> 00:54:44,592
"The kit and this handle

987
00:54:44,625 --> 00:54:45,793
"has enabled her to control
her board underwater

988
00:54:45,826 --> 00:54:48,662
"with only hand
while duck diving."

989
00:54:52,600 --> 00:54:55,703
I'm not gonna think for
the people around me.

990
00:54:55,736 --> 00:54:57,871
I'm not gonna wonder if
they think I look weird

991
00:54:57,905 --> 00:55:01,575
or "Oh my God, that guy's got
a fucking hole in his head."

992
00:55:01,609 --> 00:55:05,112
It's like an experience
like this teaches you

993
00:55:06,847 --> 00:55:09,650
to be incredibly happy
with who you are,

994
00:55:09,683 --> 00:55:12,686
no matter what
you're going through.

995
00:55:12,720 --> 00:55:14,655
And for that,
I'm grateful.

996
00:55:14,688 --> 00:55:17,124
(happy music)

997
00:55:22,796 --> 00:55:24,965
I want to jump right into it
and them I'm hurting myself.

998
00:55:24,998 --> 00:55:26,700
I think if I hurt myself,

999
00:55:26,734 --> 00:55:29,670
there'd be a lot of people
pretty angry at me.

1000
00:55:29,703 --> 00:55:31,939
(upbeat music)

1001
00:55:37,545 --> 00:55:41,649
Well, hopefully we'll do
it again, that's for sure.

1002
00:55:49,189 --> 00:55:53,026
Half experimental, half
"How do I do this safely?"

1003
00:56:04,638 --> 00:56:06,006
There's a bull right down here

1004
00:56:06,039 --> 00:56:07,908
probably in this pocket.

1005
00:56:07,941 --> 00:56:10,644
(upbeat music)

1006
00:56:15,883 --> 00:56:18,952
There's two bulls
sparring over there.

1007
00:56:20,654 --> 00:56:22,790
(bulls yelping)

1008
00:56:22,823 --> 00:56:23,624
Love that.

1009
00:56:24,925 --> 00:56:27,661
(upbeat music)

1010
00:57:14,875 --> 00:57:16,777
[Katie Couric] Eduardo Garcia
was leading a life

1011
00:57:16,810 --> 00:57:18,546
most people only dream of

1012
00:57:18,579 --> 00:57:20,047
but when he returned
home to Montana,

1013
00:57:20,080 --> 00:57:22,516
his life changed forever.

1014
00:57:22,550 --> 00:57:26,186
Please welcome the man
known as the bionic chef,

1015
00:57:26,219 --> 00:57:27,521
Eduardo Garcia.

1016
00:57:27,555 --> 00:57:30,490
(audience applause)

1017
00:57:31,859 --> 00:57:34,061
Please welcome
chef Eduardo Garcia.

1018
00:57:34,094 --> 00:57:37,030
Our chef Eduardo Garcia, thank
you so much for joining us.

1019
00:57:37,064 --> 00:57:38,899
(speaking in Spanish)

1020
00:57:38,932 --> 00:57:40,300
(audience applause)

1021
00:57:40,333 --> 00:57:42,302
Wow, you're so handsome.

1022
00:57:42,335 --> 00:57:43,837
Oh, Katie.

1023
00:57:43,871 --> 00:57:47,675
How do you, tell us,
does this allow you to,

1024
00:57:47,708 --> 00:57:49,677
obviously it allows you to
do everything you need to do?

1025
00:57:49,710 --> 00:57:53,080
I mean I got a walnut
crusher down here.

1026
00:57:53,113 --> 00:57:55,849
Did it come like that,
that walnut crusher?

1027
00:57:55,883 --> 00:57:57,317
Did that come like that?
Custom.

1028
00:57:57,350 --> 00:57:58,986
[Man] Custom crusher.

1029
00:57:59,019 --> 00:58:01,221
And if you have to like
grab an apple or something,

1030
00:58:01,254 --> 00:58:02,289
you just go phew?

1031
00:58:02,322 --> 00:58:03,724
Whacha!

1032
00:58:03,757 --> 00:58:05,292
That's so funny.

1033
00:58:05,325 --> 00:58:07,227
So you've traveled a
lot around the world.

1034
00:58:07,260 --> 00:58:09,329
What would you say was the most
beautiful place you'd been?

1035
00:58:09,362 --> 00:58:10,998
Montana.

1036
00:58:11,031 --> 00:58:12,766
Montana, well that's
where you live now?

1037
00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:14,902
That's why I live there.

1038
00:58:25,913 --> 00:58:27,014
Getting there.

1039
00:58:28,616 --> 00:58:30,017
We are getting there.

1040
00:58:34,655 --> 00:58:36,857
[Jennifer] Hello.

1041
00:58:36,890 --> 00:58:40,828
-(chicken clucking)
-(rooster crowing)

1042
00:58:42,229 --> 00:58:43,931
Although Eduardo and I

1043
00:58:43,964 --> 00:58:46,233
aren't in a romantic
relationship anymore,

1044
00:58:46,266 --> 00:58:50,971
we have one of the strongest
relationships I've known.

1045
00:58:51,004 --> 00:58:52,305
Beyond there's Bing.

1046
00:58:52,339 --> 00:58:54,942
What are you doing
in there Bing?

1047
00:58:58,378 --> 00:58:59,613
[Jennifer] I feel right now

1048
00:58:59,647 --> 00:59:01,882
that Ed and I are best friends

1049
00:59:01,915 --> 00:59:05,152
and that's kind of the
way it should be, I think,

1050
00:59:05,185 --> 00:59:08,121
for us both to be
who we want to be.

1051
00:59:12,693 --> 00:59:14,962
In the moment sitting
there in the hospital,

1052
00:59:14,995 --> 00:59:16,897
I didn't realize
how severe it was

1053
00:59:16,930 --> 00:59:18,365
and I obviously
didn't realize

1054
00:59:18,398 --> 00:59:23,103
how impactful it was
on you or my family

1055
00:59:23,136 --> 00:59:26,940
or even myself until now
three and a half years later

1056
00:59:26,974 --> 00:59:29,209
and you and I are
trying to get on

1057
00:59:29,242 --> 00:59:31,344
with our businesses
and our projects,

1058
00:59:31,378 --> 00:59:33,146
trying to get on
with our friendship,

1059
00:59:33,180 --> 00:59:34,715
with our relationship,

1060
00:59:34,748 --> 00:59:39,219
and realizing how
much personal growth,

1061
00:59:39,252 --> 00:59:42,923
how much pain,
how much struggle,

1062
00:59:42,956 --> 00:59:45,058
everybody experienced and
how much was put on hold

1063
00:59:45,092 --> 00:59:46,994
just so that
the focus could be

1064
00:59:47,027 --> 00:59:48,395
on Ed getting
through recovery,

1065
00:59:48,428 --> 00:59:50,063
Ed getting through surgery.

1066
00:59:50,097 --> 00:59:51,932
It takes people like
years and years and years

1067
00:59:51,965 --> 00:59:54,134
to like get out
of where they are.

1068
00:59:54,167 --> 00:59:55,769
Then suddenly you're on TV

1069
00:59:55,803 --> 00:59:57,304
just like oh yeah,
I happen to have this hook,

1070
00:59:57,337 --> 00:59:58,906
it's no big deal

1071
00:59:58,939 --> 01:00:01,709
and nobody sees that
coming back home.

1072
01:00:01,742 --> 01:00:04,444
Sometimes I'm not in the mood.

1073
01:00:04,477 --> 01:00:06,814
I actually don't want
to deal with this.

1074
01:00:06,847 --> 01:00:09,950
I don't want to have
to explain...

1075
01:00:09,983 --> 01:00:11,719
any of it.

1076
01:00:35,475 --> 01:00:38,078
[Eduardo] I think I
knew the pain that I felt

1077
01:00:38,111 --> 01:00:39,980
not having a dad

1078
01:00:40,013 --> 01:00:41,882
has stuck with me
my whole life.

1079
01:00:43,851 --> 01:00:45,953
You know, like I made
peace with my dad

1080
01:00:45,986 --> 01:00:49,723
and I have the opportunity
of a lifetime right now.

1081
01:00:49,757 --> 01:00:51,959
I get to see his mistakes

1082
01:00:51,992 --> 01:00:54,928
and I get to apply
those to my life.

1083
01:01:01,468 --> 01:01:05,338
If you had to say
who you were,

1084
01:01:05,372 --> 01:01:08,408
how do you describe
Manuel at 19?

1085
01:01:08,441 --> 01:01:12,279
(speaking in Spanish)

1086
01:01:34,968 --> 01:01:39,072
Where were you in your
level of skill as a fisherman?

1087
01:01:48,348 --> 01:01:50,183
Not Mexico,

1088
01:01:50,217 --> 01:01:52,485
round trip ticket anywhere
in the world right now.

1089
01:01:52,519 --> 01:01:53,553
Cancun.

1090
01:01:53,586 --> 01:01:55,255
No, besides Cancun.

1091
01:01:55,288 --> 01:01:57,324
Nowhere in Mexico,
where would you go?

1092
01:01:57,357 --> 01:01:58,158
Nowhere.

1093
01:02:01,494 --> 01:02:02,863
Right here.

1094
01:02:12,005 --> 01:02:13,941
-Empanadas?
-Empanadas.

1095
01:02:27,187 --> 01:02:28,188
Do you have any regrets,

1096
01:02:28,221 --> 01:02:30,557
things you would do different?

1097
01:03:12,032 --> 01:03:13,600
[Kathie] How is the
person that you are today

1098
01:03:13,633 --> 01:03:17,404
different than the person
that you were before?

1099
01:03:35,188 --> 01:03:36,223
We made it.

1100
01:03:38,325 --> 01:03:39,392
That was good, dad.

1101
01:04:00,713 --> 01:04:05,218
It's strange being like
early 30s, no kids,

1102
01:04:05,252 --> 01:04:09,322
to think having a pet

1103
01:04:09,356 --> 01:04:11,691
is the first,
it's like a starter kit,

1104
01:04:11,724 --> 01:04:13,260
it's that first step

1105
01:04:13,293 --> 01:04:14,928
to having some type
of responsibility

1106
01:04:14,962 --> 01:04:16,296
or some type of thing

1107
01:04:16,329 --> 01:04:19,666
that depends on you
at least a little bit.

1108
01:04:19,699 --> 01:04:22,302
I think it was the best thing
Jen and I've done in years

1109
01:04:22,335 --> 01:04:25,005
was get this cat.

1110
01:04:28,375 --> 01:04:30,310
[Jennifer] Run along, Bing.

1111
01:04:30,343 --> 01:04:32,279
-Did you get that catnip?
-[Jennifer] Yeah.

1112
01:04:32,312 --> 01:04:33,713
Oh, yeah.

1113
01:04:33,746 --> 01:04:36,049
[Jennifer] Oh, she
likes it with you.

1114
01:04:36,083 --> 01:04:37,084
That's 'cause I crushed it,

1115
01:04:37,117 --> 01:04:39,186
I got the oils going.

1116
01:04:39,219 --> 01:04:40,153
Right, Bings?

1117
01:04:41,321 --> 01:04:42,389
Yesterday you were saying

1118
01:04:42,422 --> 01:04:45,158
how you feel

1119
01:04:45,192 --> 01:04:48,395
that you can't identify
right now with yourself.

1120
01:04:48,428 --> 01:04:51,164
Well, to be in a relationship

1121
01:04:55,402 --> 01:04:58,371
is the immediate opportunity
to hurt someone else, right?

1122
01:04:58,405 --> 01:05:00,640
Or to make their life amazing.

1123
01:05:00,673 --> 01:05:02,642
-Or to make their life--
-That's the point of it.

1124
01:05:02,675 --> 01:05:04,011
But I'm aware of that.

1125
01:05:04,044 --> 01:05:06,046
You're such a pain, man.

1126
01:05:07,614 --> 01:05:10,283
I'm trying to reconvince myself

1127
01:05:10,317 --> 01:05:13,453
that I am capable of being in
a relationship with someone

1128
01:05:13,486 --> 01:05:15,588
without fucking them over.

1129
01:05:17,424 --> 01:05:19,059
You know, if it's somebody

1130
01:05:19,092 --> 01:05:20,460
who's really supportive
of you and awesome,

1131
01:05:20,493 --> 01:05:22,229
it might actually
make it a bit easier

1132
01:05:22,262 --> 01:05:23,330
'cause then you
know that you have--

1133
01:05:23,363 --> 01:05:24,397
That's funny, that was you.

1134
01:05:24,431 --> 01:05:25,365
Well, yeah.

1135
01:05:28,301 --> 01:05:32,439
Yeah, well, hmmph, true.

1136
01:05:32,472 --> 01:05:35,675
My hope is that you and I
continue to be better friends

1137
01:05:35,708 --> 01:05:38,578
than others can really
hope to understand.

1138
01:05:38,611 --> 01:05:40,313
You know how
impactful you've been,

1139
01:05:40,347 --> 01:05:43,350
you know that I can't,

1140
01:05:43,383 --> 01:05:45,485
I cannot pay you back

1141
01:05:45,518 --> 01:05:49,222
nor can I validate what
you've done for me, like ever.

1142
01:05:49,256 --> 01:05:50,657
[Jennifer] I know.

1143
01:06:02,435 --> 01:06:06,473
At some point, I realized that
he didn't need me anymore.

1144
01:06:06,506 --> 01:06:08,175
I didn't need to be there

1145
01:06:08,208 --> 01:06:11,278
100% of the time
and the caregiver.

1146
01:06:11,311 --> 01:06:13,046
I chose to put my life on hold

1147
01:06:13,080 --> 01:06:16,283
but I've still been
wanting to do things for me

1148
01:06:16,316 --> 01:06:17,617
and one of those things

1149
01:06:17,650 --> 01:06:21,020
has been wanting to
do stand up comedy.

1150
01:06:22,489 --> 01:06:24,157
Honestly, I think
the stand up thing

1151
01:06:24,191 --> 01:06:27,160
came from not being heard.

1152
01:06:27,194 --> 01:06:29,229
I'm very confident that
I'm gonna struggle a lot

1153
01:06:29,262 --> 01:06:30,830
just to speak clearly,

1154
01:06:30,863 --> 01:06:33,166
just to not be so nervous

1155
01:06:33,200 --> 01:06:36,769
in a room full of people
that are looking at you.

1156
01:06:38,538 --> 01:06:42,842
[Eduardo] I'm proud
of us for surviving.

1157
01:06:42,875 --> 01:06:47,114
I have an undending amount
of gratitude for Jen .

1158
01:06:47,847 --> 01:06:49,482
Do what you need to do,

1159
01:06:49,516 --> 01:06:50,817
be who you want to be

1160
01:06:50,850 --> 01:06:54,487
and tell me how I
can support you.

1161
01:06:54,521 --> 01:06:57,557
My role, I'm a friend, I care.

1162
01:06:57,590 --> 01:07:00,227
[Announcer] We've got
two first timers tonight.

1163
01:07:00,260 --> 01:07:01,561
Jen.

1164
01:07:01,594 --> 01:07:03,763
(happy music)

1165
01:07:06,433 --> 01:07:09,336
So, I'm on Tinder...

1166
01:07:12,539 --> 01:07:16,443
* The favorite parts
are what we'll keep

1167
01:07:18,511 --> 01:07:23,883
* Ornamental parts of
love and parts of memories

1168
01:07:23,916 --> 01:07:27,654
* So everything else
has room to grow

1169
01:07:29,456 --> 01:07:33,393
* 'Cause in better light,
everything changes

1170
01:07:37,564 --> 01:07:38,765
No, I don't think Ed owes me.

1171
01:07:38,798 --> 01:07:42,469
I think we did
pretty well together.

1172
01:07:42,502 --> 01:07:44,471
What we've experienced and what
we've been through together

1173
01:07:44,504 --> 01:07:48,441
forms a friendship
which is pretty epic.

1174
01:07:48,475 --> 01:07:51,178
* There's no race,
there's only a runner

1175
01:07:51,211 --> 01:07:53,880
* Just keep one foot
in front of the other

1176
01:07:53,913 --> 01:07:58,218
* There's no race,
there's only a runner

1177
01:07:59,819 --> 01:08:02,922
* One, two, three,
and then you get tired

1178
01:08:02,955 --> 01:08:06,393
* Just keep one foot
in front of the other

1179
01:08:06,426 --> 01:08:08,895
* There's no race,
no ending in sight

1180
01:08:08,928 --> 01:08:11,931
* No second too short,
no window too tight

1181
01:08:11,964 --> 01:08:16,836
* Turn off the
lights when you leave

1182
01:08:16,869 --> 01:08:21,174
* 'Cause we've got
everything we're gonna need

1183
01:08:23,810 --> 01:08:27,914
* We're on the run, we're
on the run, we're on the run

1184
01:08:33,353 --> 01:08:35,822
* Tell our story

1185
01:08:42,962 --> 01:08:47,166
* We made something of ourselves

1186
01:08:54,974 --> 01:08:58,611
* One day, tell our story

1187
01:09:07,654 --> 01:09:11,558
* We made something, we
made something of ourselves.

1188
01:09:30,877 --> 01:09:31,678
Okay.

1189
01:09:34,781 --> 01:09:36,883
[Eduardo] That is one
of the most unique ones

1190
01:09:36,916 --> 01:09:38,451
we've ever picked.

1191
01:09:38,485 --> 01:09:39,286
Whoa.

1192
01:09:45,625 --> 01:09:47,727
She knows something's funny.

1193
01:09:47,760 --> 01:09:49,596
I wonder if she's picking up on,

1194
01:09:49,629 --> 01:09:51,798
this is all Jen's stuff.

1195
01:09:51,831 --> 01:09:52,999
Hey, come here.

1196
01:09:56,469 --> 01:09:59,339
Don't you worry,
Jen is moving out.

1197
01:10:05,545 --> 01:10:08,548
She'll come back to us,
Bing, don't you worry.

1198
01:10:24,797 --> 01:10:25,865
Don't you worry.

1199
01:10:27,700 --> 01:10:30,970
She's moving out but
she is not leaving.

1200
01:10:39,546 --> 01:10:41,614
I told her that you're moving
out but you're not leaving.

1201
01:10:41,648 --> 01:10:42,649
[Jennifer] Is he okay?

1202
01:10:42,682 --> 01:10:44,684
Look at Bing.

1203
01:10:44,717 --> 01:10:46,419
Bing was trying to
hide in the mattress

1204
01:10:46,453 --> 01:10:48,555
so she could go with you.

1205
01:10:48,588 --> 01:10:50,022
[Jennifer] Of course she was.

1206
01:10:50,056 --> 01:10:50,990
That's okay.

1207
01:11:29,161 --> 01:11:32,365
(singing in Spanish)

1208
01:11:37,737 --> 01:11:41,073
(speaking in Spanish)

1209
01:12:56,182 --> 01:12:56,983
I know.

1210
01:12:58,785 --> 01:12:59,619
I know.

1211
01:13:53,840 --> 01:13:56,943
[Eduardo] I would say that
my greatest struggle every day

1212
01:13:56,976 --> 01:14:01,213
is just being true
to who I want to be.

1213
01:14:03,249 --> 01:14:05,852
My strength has always been

1214
01:14:05,885 --> 01:14:08,120
working within the physical.

1215
01:14:08,154 --> 01:14:12,158
The emotional challenges,
I'm finding way harder.

1216
01:14:17,964 --> 01:14:21,000
A friend of mine recommended
I check out a group

1217
01:14:21,033 --> 01:14:22,835
called the Challenged
Athletes Foundation.

1218
01:14:22,869 --> 01:14:23,736
Good to see you, man.

1219
01:14:23,770 --> 01:14:24,571
You too.

1220
01:14:26,673 --> 01:14:28,975
At my first CAF event,

1221
01:14:29,008 --> 01:14:32,011
a lower arm amputee
stepped right up to me,

1222
01:14:32,044 --> 01:14:34,280
pointed and said,
"Hey, are you running

1223
01:14:34,313 --> 01:14:36,749
"with your prosthetic on?"

1224
01:14:36,783 --> 01:14:40,720
And that was the first
time I can remember

1225
01:14:40,753 --> 01:14:44,090
really being in public
with my nude forearm

1226
01:14:45,191 --> 01:14:47,293
without trying to hide it.

1227
01:14:48,695 --> 01:14:50,229
There was no denying it,

1228
01:14:50,262 --> 01:14:53,800
it was like boom,
that's your amputation.

1229
01:14:54,967 --> 01:14:56,335
That was my "ah-ha" moment.

1230
01:14:56,368 --> 01:14:58,037
I am an amputee,

1231
01:14:58,070 --> 01:14:59,338
I am missing my left hand.

1232
01:14:59,371 --> 01:15:01,641
It is a part of who I am

1233
01:15:01,674 --> 01:15:03,910
and it doesn't define me,

1234
01:15:03,943 --> 01:15:05,712
I'm not Eduardo
Garcia, the amputee,

1235
01:15:05,745 --> 01:15:07,079
I'm just Eduardo.

1236
01:15:12,752 --> 01:15:14,887
[Starter]
Swimmers set...

1237
01:15:14,921 --> 01:15:16,923
(horn blows)

1238
01:15:21,093 --> 01:15:22,194
In my every day life,

1239
01:15:22,228 --> 01:15:24,096
I don't have any other amputees

1240
01:15:24,130 --> 01:15:25,765
that are in my
close friend group

1241
01:15:25,798 --> 01:15:27,366
or in my community
that I know of

1242
01:15:27,399 --> 01:15:29,936
that I can bounce
my successes,

1243
01:15:29,969 --> 01:15:32,571
my losses,
my hard times off of.

1244
01:15:33,973 --> 01:15:36,843
We inspire and
motivate each other

1245
01:15:36,876 --> 01:15:38,878
by watching what
we're capable of.

1246
01:15:38,911 --> 01:15:39,779
It's incredible.

1247
01:15:43,015 --> 01:15:45,985
Disabilities like
what happened to Eduardo

1248
01:15:46,018 --> 01:15:47,687
in a way is like
being born again

1249
01:15:47,720 --> 01:15:49,355
'cause your life gets
flipped upside down

1250
01:15:49,388 --> 01:15:50,790
and you start over

1251
01:15:50,823 --> 01:15:53,125
whether you want
to admit it or not

1252
01:15:53,159 --> 01:15:55,094
it's flipped upside down.

1253
01:15:55,127 --> 01:15:55,962
[Eduardo] Scoot back a little.

1254
01:15:55,995 --> 01:15:56,796
Okay.

1255
01:15:58,965 --> 01:16:02,635
[Willie] You ultimately, you
gotta find who you are again.

1256
01:16:03,703 --> 01:16:05,104
[Eduardo] That was so cool,

1257
01:16:05,137 --> 01:16:07,306
I watched you catch
that first wave in.

1258
01:16:07,339 --> 01:16:08,708
That was awesome.

1259
01:16:08,741 --> 01:16:10,109
That was awesome.

1260
01:16:11,778 --> 01:16:12,378
Up and over.

1261
01:16:14,080 --> 01:16:19,051
I've never tried surfing
without my prosthetic on

1262
01:16:19,085 --> 01:16:21,087
so that's gonna be a first.

1263
01:16:22,989 --> 01:16:24,356
I know it's kind of just,

1264
01:16:24,390 --> 01:16:25,992
it's a safe zone to discover

1265
01:16:26,025 --> 01:16:29,361
and really be super
vulnerable and super open

1266
01:16:29,395 --> 01:16:32,164
and grow together.

1267
01:16:42,174 --> 01:16:46,245
I truly feel
this urgent need

1268
01:16:46,278 --> 01:16:48,280
to say thanks at large

1269
01:16:48,314 --> 01:16:52,051
like that asshole kid
that was so selfish

1270
01:16:52,084 --> 01:16:53,385
and focused on my own stuff,

1271
01:16:53,419 --> 01:16:56,288
I almost feel guilty

1272
01:16:56,322 --> 01:16:59,058
that I got so much given to me.

1273
01:17:03,162 --> 01:17:05,364
I wouldn't be here if
it wasn't for others

1274
01:17:05,397 --> 01:17:07,199
so my life moving forward

1275
01:17:07,233 --> 01:17:11,170
needs to be in some
dedication to others.

1276
01:17:11,203 --> 01:17:13,906
I've inflicted a lot
of pain in my life.

1277
01:17:13,940 --> 01:17:17,109
I've been a class A
beep, I have, I have.

1278
01:17:23,149 --> 01:17:25,117
I have been so many
times in my life

1279
01:17:25,151 --> 01:17:27,820
just focused on what I want.

1280
01:17:27,854 --> 01:17:29,856
I think I've always
been a driven person,

1281
01:17:29,889 --> 01:17:31,257
I think I've always
had more energy

1282
01:17:31,290 --> 01:17:33,225
than anyone knew
what to do with.

1283
01:17:33,259 --> 01:17:36,128
You get kicked out of
nine schools, I mean,

1284
01:17:36,162 --> 01:17:40,767
but I think this experience
it did a couple of things.

1285
01:17:40,800 --> 01:17:45,237
It fortified my interest in
making every moment count

1286
01:17:45,271 --> 01:17:46,839
and it also encouraged me

1287
01:17:46,873 --> 01:17:49,341
that this is a life
worth living

1288
01:17:49,375 --> 01:17:52,178
and it's a life worth living
really, really, really well.

1289
01:17:52,211 --> 01:17:57,149
I mean, I have bad days, for
sure, this sucks, it does,

1290
01:17:57,183 --> 01:18:00,987
but I'm not gonna live in that.

1291
01:18:01,020 --> 01:18:03,222
My choice is I'd
rather wake up and say,

1292
01:18:03,255 --> 01:18:05,758
"Hey, I'm gonna put a
stainless steel plate

1293
01:18:05,792 --> 01:18:07,994
"on the bottom of that
and now I've got a hammer."

1294
01:18:08,027 --> 01:18:10,863
The curiosity that maybe
got me electrocuted

1295
01:18:10,897 --> 01:18:13,432
"Oh, what's that?
It's a dead bear,

1296
01:18:13,465 --> 01:18:16,468
that's kind of
weird looking." (buzzing)

1297
01:18:16,502 --> 01:18:20,206
Maybe that curiosity is
what pushes me through.

1298
01:18:20,239 --> 01:18:21,941
I'm fortunate to
just still be alive

1299
01:18:21,974 --> 01:18:24,110
but it's those mistakes
that you make,

1300
01:18:24,143 --> 01:18:25,244
you learn from 'em,

1301
01:18:25,277 --> 01:18:28,380
I'm not touching any more bears.

1302
01:18:28,414 --> 01:18:30,883
But it doesn't mean I'm
not lifting up twigs

1303
01:18:30,917 --> 01:18:32,218
and looking for things

1304
01:18:32,251 --> 01:18:34,520
and seeing where
opportunity lies.

1305
01:18:34,553 --> 01:18:36,222
Here's the thing

1306
01:18:36,255 --> 01:18:38,991
is caregivers kind of get
the blind sight, right,

1307
01:18:39,025 --> 01:18:40,827
like I had the People
magazine write up

1308
01:18:40,860 --> 01:18:41,828
and I was on Good
Morning America

1309
01:18:41,861 --> 01:18:43,229
and I got flown to New York

1310
01:18:43,262 --> 01:18:46,332
and there's been a
lot of publicity on me

1311
01:18:46,365 --> 01:18:50,136
and absolutely zero on every
single person that helped me

1312
01:18:50,169 --> 01:18:52,038
and without them,

1313
01:18:52,071 --> 01:18:54,841
I wouldn't have made
it through that.

1314
01:18:54,874 --> 01:18:56,809
So I would encourage,
if you're out there right now

1315
01:18:56,843 --> 01:18:58,477
and you're helping
your best friend,

1316
01:18:58,510 --> 01:19:00,913
your little brother or sister,
your mom, your dad, whoever,

1317
01:19:00,947 --> 01:19:03,349
to get through a hard time

1318
01:19:03,382 --> 01:19:05,885
and you feel like all
the attention's on them,

1319
01:19:05,918 --> 01:19:10,189
they can't do it without you
and without your support.

1320
01:19:10,222 --> 01:19:12,458
So I want any number of people

1321
01:19:13,960 --> 01:19:15,527
to join me right here,

1322
01:19:15,561 --> 01:19:17,229
grab my left hand,
grab my right hand,

1323
01:19:17,263 --> 01:19:18,264
join it up with that corner,

1324
01:19:18,297 --> 01:19:20,099
join it up with that corner

1325
01:19:20,132 --> 01:19:23,202
and I want to see if this
entire room in the next minute

1326
01:19:23,235 --> 01:19:25,204
can connect hands, go.

1327
01:19:33,579 --> 01:19:37,583
Everybody find your pulse.

1328
01:19:37,616 --> 01:19:40,219
That pulse is now going
through every single one of us.

1329
01:19:40,252 --> 01:19:41,387
We are connected.

1330
01:19:44,356 --> 01:19:45,257
[Man] Thanks.

1331
01:19:45,291 --> 01:19:47,559
Yeah man, 100%, you too.

1332
01:19:49,161 --> 01:19:51,931
You can just like
hold on to it like.

1333
01:19:53,499 --> 01:19:56,235
Just listening to your
story about troubles in school

1334
01:19:56,268 --> 01:19:58,304
is just very inspiring for me

1335
01:19:58,337 --> 01:20:01,273
because everything
that you've said

1336
01:20:01,307 --> 01:20:02,608
I could kind of relate to.

1337
01:20:02,641 --> 01:20:04,376
Thanks for coming out.

1338
01:20:04,410 --> 01:20:08,047
My brother was in the ICU
about the same time as you.

1339
01:20:08,080 --> 01:20:10,116
He got hit with a
firework and was burned,

1340
01:20:10,149 --> 01:20:14,186
he's seven but it's been tough.

1341
01:20:14,220 --> 01:20:15,254
How's he doing?

1342
01:20:15,287 --> 01:20:16,122
He's doing really good.

1343
01:20:16,155 --> 01:20:17,623
Nice.

1344
01:20:17,656 --> 01:20:19,558
Sounds like you've been
there for him though?

1345
01:20:19,591 --> 01:20:20,392
Yeah.

1346
01:20:22,128 --> 01:20:25,331
That's awesome, man.
That's the stuff.

1347
01:20:27,266 --> 01:20:29,601
(upbeat music)

1348
01:20:33,672 --> 01:20:37,977
I left this parking lot four
years ago today at 10:30.

1349
01:20:44,416 --> 01:20:48,520
You look at my experiences
leading into this injury,

1350
01:20:51,423 --> 01:20:54,360
maybe I'm doing myself no favors

1351
01:20:54,393 --> 01:20:58,397
by just continuing
to push through

1352
01:20:58,430 --> 01:21:01,133
and not stopping to
take a full appraisal

1353
01:21:01,167 --> 01:21:02,935
of why I am the way I am

1354
01:21:02,969 --> 01:21:05,371
and how much it means to change.

1355
01:21:10,042 --> 01:21:13,245
Everyone that has encouraged
me and supported me

1356
01:21:13,279 --> 01:21:16,548
and forgiven me and
held me accountable

1357
01:21:16,582 --> 01:21:20,352
has brought me to today

1358
01:21:22,621 --> 01:21:25,491
and how I make my
life moving forward.

1359
01:21:29,128 --> 01:21:31,530
You're damn right
I would go back.

1360
01:21:33,165 --> 01:21:34,466
Funny last time I
was here with Jen

1361
01:21:34,500 --> 01:21:36,268
I couldn't even stand here.

1362
01:21:36,302 --> 01:21:38,704
I was so pissed, man.

1363
01:21:39,571 --> 01:21:41,707
I was so pissed.

1364
01:21:51,750 --> 01:21:54,686
It feels like a long time ago.

1365
01:21:54,720 --> 01:21:58,257
It feels like more
than four years ago.

1366
01:21:58,290 --> 01:22:01,360
It feels like a lifetime ago.

1367
01:22:01,393 --> 01:22:03,395
You know what I'm saying?

1368
01:22:07,299 --> 01:22:09,968
(dramatic music)

1369
01:23:19,638 --> 01:23:23,342
* All my fears are running wild

1370
01:23:23,375 --> 01:23:26,612
* Dragging me mile after mile

1371
01:23:26,645 --> 01:23:31,383
* Think it's time
I take the reigns

1372
01:23:31,417 --> 01:23:35,321
* Playing a hero for a change

1373
01:23:35,354 --> 01:23:39,458
* 'Cause I'm stronger,
I'm stronger than my

1374
01:23:44,430 --> 01:23:46,365
* Fears

1375
01:23:48,434 --> 01:23:52,571
* Over fields of doubt I march

1376
01:23:52,604 --> 01:23:56,508
* Fighting hard
to frame my heart

1377
01:23:56,542 --> 01:24:00,612
* Still I hear
my old fears call

1378
01:24:00,646 --> 01:24:04,616
* Who are you
to stand so tall

1379
01:24:04,650 --> 01:24:11,457
* Well I'm stronger,
I'm stronger than my

1380
01:24:13,159 --> 01:24:15,093
* Fears

1381
01:24:25,837 --> 01:24:29,475
* Hey, hey, hey,
hey, hey

1382
01:24:34,580 --> 01:24:38,217
* Hey, hey, hey,
hey, hey

1383
01:24:42,888 --> 01:24:47,393
* Every day
we have a choice

1384
01:24:47,426 --> 01:24:51,397
* Fear has nothing
but a voice

1385
01:24:51,430 --> 01:24:55,667
* It may whisper,
it may scream

1386
01:24:55,701 --> 01:24:59,538
* Well I'm no longer listening

1387
01:25:32,771 --> 01:25:36,675
* 'Cause I'm stronger,
I'm stronger than my

1388
01:25:41,980 --> 01:25:43,915
* Fears.
