The underdog of it all

I just finished this episode and honestly, I’m gonna say my top favorites are on one hand and this is solid 2nd place. Darnell Epps is a human bumblebee. Bumblebees are not supposed to be able to fly because of their small wing size compared to their body. The only thing is, nobody ever told them this so that’s why they can fly. Darnell Epps is the same thing in human form. He became what he did and he has accomplished what he has accomplished and still going because he was never told that a person with his kind of odds just doesn’t have a chance. I think though even if they did it wouldn’t have mattered.

This is a GREAT story … keep up the good work
