When middle school kids act more adult than actual adults....

The fact that Max actually turned down the interview because he wanted it to be "all about Jack" speaks volumes. Wow....just wow.

That kid was taught very well by his parents Great kid

That kid who let the tackle happen has heart

Max Ringwald, you are a class act brother. God's favor and blessings on you a thousand times over. Big thumbs up 👍👍👍

This is a product of GOOD PARENTING, coaches and teachers instilling something more important in life than a game, or a play, or a win. We need more of this in society.

TOTAL EFFORT! Everyone in this scenario is a WINNER!

The kid that allowed himself to be tackled has his head on straight. Congrats, Max! You are on your way to becoming the kind of person that we all want to be. Thanks to his coach- who could have yelled at him, other kids- who could have teased and bullied him, and his parents- who taught him that there is more to life than football (and I love football).

That kid has a lot of class.

amazing. whoever #7 was, hes got a huge heart 🤘

Great job to the parents who raised #7. 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Sometimes in life: you have that one moment you remember and smile. This was Jack's moment

Such an awesome story. These boys learned more from this experience than they ever could in a school classroom.

Born leader. Thinking about others and something higher than himself. Good on him 👍

It's life #7 never lose that kindness young man... It'll do the world some good...

Major respect for those kids who did this for that great young man.

God Bless ALL the parents of ALL those fine young men. On BOTH teams. Gives me hope in humanity.

Somebody did a great job raising these young men.

There is still hope in today's generation

This was a tear jerking moment for me.

I luv it, kids lookin out 4 1 another. It only takes 1 kind act 2 make someone happy

All these kids made a teaching moment for us all !! WTG guys

Both teams were winners! We all need to become better people like these two teams and especially the young who was tackled!

nice moment. good for you #7. you made his day better.

OK, who down-votes this?? Wonderful story. Great sportsmanship and restores my faith in humanity. Well done, everyone involved...

Just maybe if stories like this were the headlines all the time the world would be a better place........maybe, total respect to that kid!!!!!!

lowers shoulder

Even currently in 2021 that tackle is something special and that young man who was the ball carrier on this play is a real HERO!!! Mr. Springwald ( sorry if i got the name wrong, #7 on the carry and #1 in your hearts!! ) you sir are first class all the way!

This made me smile both teams rock and number 7 deserves a mvp for making it happen for Jack

eighth grade. not high school. that kid is probably 14 years old and yet so mature. parents raised him well

Great Job Max! There is no better feeling than doing something for someone else that many never know where it came from. We need more of this in this ME society today. 1:38

That kid is pretty special

Props to the kid that let him tackle him but if you really wanted him to feel like a normal they should've let him get into a real play and feel what real athletes go through

Hearing what that kids dad said about watching his kid make a tackle got me in my feels and that max kid is a big stud also

Imagine if he didnt hear the QB and trucked him at full speed.

Great work! You made a memory of a lifetime for your opponent!

OMG I go to school with Jack and he's legitimately the nicest kid I've even seen he's so sweet ☺️☺️☺️

Way to go buddy keep winning you are killing it and are a great example for our children

Wow,good to see there's still Great people amongst the others.made my day much brighter!!!

"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of theses is love." (1 Corinthians 13:13)

That kid and all his team members will become great men

Max, you're going to go far in this life. Stay strong brother!

4 years later folks still remember you both

He's going to blessed for the rest of his life.

Great story, thank you guys !

Sportsmanship! That’s what this is. It is too bad that professional sports have turn a blind eye to it completely.

I feel everyone on the field should get an award. YAY

Class act young man. More people like you needed.👍👍

life lessons learned in this play. respect.

That was so awesome seeing someone thinking of someone else.

Look at that?! I wish all other coaches learn from this! Great job guys! Love y'all! ❤💋🌹

I love sportsmanship

this is what football is all about I enjoyed it Both teams are winners This is amazing too 🏈🏈🏈🏈This is a wonderful story

Why can't I watch these videos without crying

Max Respect Buddy👊🏻

Tremendous kids and tremendous story

Lookin Like sean taylor out there 😂👏

DIIIIAAAAMMMM THAT HIT WAS HARD!!

I've worked with the Down syndrome population in the past, and the ones with high cognitive functioning are often self-aware that they are different from their peers, and this is a huge struggle for them because all they want is to have experiences that mainstream kids have. So something like this is very meaningful for both them and their families.

Kid got a 99 on madden! Look at that hit stick!

I LOVE THIS!!! I'm in tears, my oldest had ds we lost him in 2018

What a amazing kid

Total respect

Yes so sweet ❤️🙏🏾

A lot of parents should be commended. I saw many quality citizen moments in this video. Oh, also the coach's and all who try to instill that quality in our future.

Fun fact: that kid had spent most of his life in the hospital after being born with a potato for a heart.

Utterly charmed.

Beautiful.

Thank You For Making This Video And Thank You For Letting Him Get A Tacle

Hear, hear. Well done!

Simply awesome!

Awesome 😎👍😎👍😎 Sportsmanship and with class. Aloha.

Wow Max's! Turned down a interview! True badass, well done

Who don't love that stuff

That's very nice

Love this lovely video

He could have easily gone down the field and scored... BOI HE WAS ABOUT TO GET LIT OUT BY SOMEONE 6'1

Nice . Need more people like this or more activities etc etc around the world

This is why football is my favorite sport

Don’t let him make the touch down , treat him like the rest of the team and make him earn it

He will make it big one day

Everyone who is saying mean stuff you guys are heartless monsters. I hope you guys can think a little about how much this means to that kid. Get a heart.

May God bless them

Max and Jack what a great pair, friends for life, class act gentlemen. SJ sending support and love for all.

Great kid!

So just let him ,just like give the losers a Trophy as well

i wonder what DOWN it was

Max Ringwald is going places in this life. By now he should be in college and I hope he is getting tackled by all the babes.

The thumbnail looks like they’re fighting

BEAUTIFUL 🥰 HEART!!!

BEAUTIFUL

Bravo!

That's Wisconsin class right there

To all the 93 people who disliked this “why”

Where yall get max turns down interview when he was interviewed

Awesome sauce.

That QB is the MVP all the way. It reminds me of at a baseball game the catcher told me when to swing. Even he knew I was in the wrong sport. lol

Respect ❤️❤️

There is hope for us a people...

He boomed him
