So! The starting kick of Brazil's 2014 WorldCup was given by a paraplegic guy controling a body armor, which I thought was super cool, and a different approach that thinks outside of the box and might be great while the stem cell researches aren't getting quite there yet. The more research and different methods in this area, the better!

Unfortunately, this emotional moment got only a few seconds of air time, which is really a shame.

I started this animation right in the same day, with the original idea to call more atention to the issue, then, the original animation idea changed a million times and I opted not to finish it because I thought people would misinterpret it as me making fun of the guy, which really isn't the case and not like me at all.

I of course had to add some weird derpy faces for comedic effect and that is what made me think this might be taken the wrong way.
I usually do cleaner noncontroversial things in my animations and it felt kinda out of the things I usually try to accomplish.

I also prefer to do orignal stories over satires but oh well, I at least tried something different.

I opted to finish this the other day because a friend of mine watched it and convinced me it wasn't offensive and I should finish it. Although I don't really think it's funny but oh well, living and learning!!! :P

Also, the music I used at first was better, but sadly, even though it was public domain, youtube wasn't letting me use it.

Hope you guys can enjoy it! And that nobody hates me for this...
