To follow up what my brother Chris said. “I wish Mike, could have seen what Mark built. Well, the truth is if Mike didn’t die I wouldn’t have had the guts to act on my ideas, my hopes and my dreams.

The film Bigger Stronger Faster certainly had an impact on my lifting. Your brother lives on through this film, you and your brothers still impact us all.

Jesus..... Watching your Dad speak and how strong he is, how strong he stays for your mother and your family, when he started crying my eyes just welled up.... What an amazing father you have, he reminds me of my own, very wise, very strong. Your mother to, she has a very pure maternal love for her whole family, you can see it in her eyes and hear it in her voice, she really loves you all. I cannot even comprehend how it would feel losing my sister or my little brother! I think its really good how you and your family have dealt with this loss, that you speak about it and share it, Its very touching. R.I.P - Mad Dog!

Couldn't hold it when Chris broke up in tears. Too sad what he said.

Your Dad definitely keeps it real 👍🏿👍🏿

I can still remember that scene in Bigger, Stronger, Faster when your brother was talking about something and his wife was seated by his side (I think he was talking about things will be better when....) and then the camera focus on his wife and she wife wipes a tear from her eye. It was so obvious he was suffering but his wife knew he would never find what he was looking for...... God bless, Mark and your family

Beautiful, Mike was my favorite from the movie, crushed to hear of his passing. Legends never die

"Being good consistently turns into greatness" - I'd pay for a poster of Mark with that quote 23:38

My dad died when I was nine years old(2009). After that I tryed to do everything that I thought would make him happy. That lasted for about five years until I decide that there is more to life then just grief. I didn't know what to do until I found fitness more importantly your KZfaq channel. You, and so many people I probably will never get to meet have impacted my life in so many ways. All I want to say is thank you for everything you have done you are one of my heros, and favorite person to watch. Thank you from the bottom of my 18 year old heart.

I'm with you man, 2016 December 3rd my brother passed. The best way to represent him is to live your best life.

I’d rather die than be average - Mad Dog

Amazing mini documentary. Thank you for making and posting. This really struck some chords, and brought tears to my eyes because watching Bigger, Faster, stronger involved us, the viewers, and opened the doors to the Bell family. I watch Bigger, Faster, Stronger all the time still, along side Pumping Iron, and Generation Iron. I was in shock when I saw the post of Mike's passing, and my heart goes out to the Bell family and sorry for your loss. My Daughter is battling addiction now, and I don't want that call. So, I feel for you all. I wish you all the best, and blesses. Respect!

I did not know Mime as a wrestler but as my accountant, he always helped his family and we looked forward to seeing him each year. Such a nice guy and missed a lot.

Man this was heartfelt. Love these guys and their family and the documentaries they put out. I hope they continue to put stuff out always cool to hear and see stuff from them

I love the Bell family and have been a huge fan of Chris' films for 11 years since Bigger Stronger Faster. I hope Chris never stops making his great films. R.I.P. Mike, and thanks to all the Bells who let us all into their private lives. Be safe with the weights and dieting you guys. Ma and Pa Bell, great job handling all this attention.

Oh man...your Dad talking Mark really got me in the chest, a man of knowledge & certainty.

RIP Mad Dog!!

Mark, this was the most powerful message you have given us to date. Just raw poignant gut wrenching emotion. My heart goes out to your Dad, Mom, Chris, and of course yourself. Many layers to the video for people to relate to and more importantly to act on.

made me cry a little when Chris talked. rip mike.

I was 15 when my father passed from cancer at 35 years old it still resonates thru myself and my family it’s never a easy thing to think and talk about I have much respect and genuine love for the message you are putting out their because it comes from true life experience. Seeing your mother, father and brother speak about their feelings and experience is something to admire. Thanks for the message you guys are putting out it means more than you probably realize.

You're a living legend Mark, and I'm sure Mike knew exactly what you were going to become. He's smiling down on you proudly from heaven for all of eternity 🙏🏻

Very Wise Closing Philosophy From Chris. Doing the small things consistently for long time makes you great.. Such good Line..Thats Real as his Dads Thought...Always remember Movies and TV are not real.. Good Video

thank you to you and your family . say thank you to your mom and dad for speaking out. I am the mad dude with mental health issues . I'm 46 and struggled all my life. i self medicated to cope. I haven't had a drink for 18 years. along the way I've lost every one because of my behaviour not a good thing to say. I have no one now. I have my training. my weights it keeps me going and sain. it's thr only thing I was good at. I was abused as a kid and told no one. now I've been diagnosed autistic and are treated alot different because there is a reason why I used to act like I did. I am alive and sober. what your mom said made me cry a big 200 lbs + dude. she has a big heart. sorry for crashing your family's thoughts but I just wanted to say thank you for your words. it hit home with me and I hope it helps other people to speak out and help others or themselves.

Sorry for your loss... Your family's appreciation for him means a lot and helps spread awareness and for that I thank you..

I have someone close to me struggling with a drug addiction. I'm trying my best to help them out, and this video really hits home. I rarely cry,,, but I couldn't hold it back.

What you’re doing is so much bigger than strength and fitness Mark. Not many videos make me outright tear up but seeing your brother breakdown like that did it. RIP Mad Dog.

Losing a brother is a tough experience. It never gets easier. You learn to deal with it better and productively. It’s only been 3 years for me and it’s still heart breaking. Thanks for sharing your story.

What an honest, straight-up video! I'm very sorry for your loss...God bless all of you. Amazing family.

This video so touching. I lost someone very close to me too. It has taken time for me to accept it. I completely know how your family feels. Rest in Peace mike bell. I wish I was there to hug you all.

RIP Mad Dog. I'll hit an extra set just for you today.

Man this was hard to watch...bigger faster stronger really hit home with me, very much reminded me of the relationship that developed between me and my big brother because of training...RIP mad dog ✊🙌

Bigger stronger faster inspired a generation Rip big bro give Mom and Dad a hug today much love to you and your family

I lost it when Chris lost his composure. Next thing I knew I was here crying in front of my computer for another man I never even met. I'm a pussy too. RIP Mike

My daughter passed away 12-28-14 .I too live the words your mom speaks. I too dread this time every year since that day...i forever respect your open vision on this moment you and your family go through as I live through my own dark time..thank you mark. Sincerly just an amateur dad who trucks during the day and lifts weights when he gets home.

I remember this movie changing my life and how much the bell family had an affect on me. Great video in memory of him

the movie bigger stronger faster got me into powerlifting and the goal of getting stronger!"strength is never a weakness"

Respect. Mark, You did everything right, now men who look up to you know how to stand out and be great and most importantly, keep it all together. I'd be crying if I just didn't feel so solid, real and strong, and Strength is Never a Weakness!

@supertraining06....just has the opprotunity to watch what you made and releasdd 4 years ago. Thank you for sharing your family and what you have all been through. You continue to inspire greatness Mark, I hope you realize that. Much love brother. 🙏💪

01/18/2013 my brother violently took his own life. One of the hardest things I've ever had to do is explain to my mom what he would look like so she wouldn't go see his body and have to live with that image of him for the rest of her life. I wanted her to have the memory of him as he was when he was alive. Taking your own life doesn't end your pain, it transfers it to your loved ones.

I'm at a loss for words after watching this. I knew you lost your older brother. This video (tribute) to him is done very elegantly. I'm terribly sorry for you and family's loss of Mike. He truly lives on in your memories. You and your family will see him again one day. ✝️🙏

Love this documentary till this day I watch it over and over keep up all the hard work and dedication

Thanks Mark as someone who spent 2 and a half years as an alcoholic because of crippling anxiety and depression this hit home for me and is a reminder of how far I've come I'm now sober and eating healthy I workout I still suffer with anxiety and depression so I workout at 1am but babe steps right. Rip mad dog Mike gone but never forgotten

Mark, you and your family are incredibly brave for sharing this and putting your feelings and doubts and pain out on dipaly for everyone who can relate to it to see. Ive been a fan for a long time and every year aorund christmas I see your and Chris's videos and posts about Mike and the struggle you all went through, and its harder to get through every year. Keep your head up man, mad dog may be gone but he will live forever.

i allways loved bell family as a kiddo when started training and seen bigger stronger faster, they really lovely people, rip mad dog, he fought till end to follow his dreams, this kinda man is a hero, sad story all the love to bell family.

very beautiful and touching mark brought tears to my eyes, thanks for sharing

RIP Mike Madog Bell. Absolutely a riveting documentary, My thoughts and prayers to all of the Bell family on this day of remembrance. 🙏

Mark, your mother reminds me so much of my own. This gave me all the more appreciation for her, thank you for sharing this with us! 💪

im not crying ur crying

Chris made me cry like a little girl!

Your dad is a true treasure loved his words 💚

I watch this every year. Thank you mark and Bell family

love that...'his own definition of greatness..'" that beautiful statement.. RESONATES

Your mom and dad are incredible people. They remind me of mine, people who love the Lord and want their kids to know they're loved. I'm crying hearing it. I was a drug addict myself and gave my life to Jesus. I now have three little girls, oldest is 5. I pray and hope all the time that they don't end up like I did. God bless you and your family, Chris. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Rest In Peace!! Love and respect for Mad Dogg!

Your brother was a legend. I don't think he had the wrong outlook on life either. He had the kind of ambition that is conducive to the kind of success you & your bother & the rest of your family are now enjoying. If you value yourself, you should never be content with punching a clock to make $7-$8 an hour. That's what I take from Mad Dog.

Father speaks with a lot of honesty and wisdom.

Thanks for sharing this. Losing someone sucks, just celebrate their memory and remember the good things. Hug your Mom and Pops today they are gonna need you and Chris.

Just watched bigger stronger faster💪🏻 RIP MIKE BELL 🙏🏻💙

Thank you, Mark for everything!

The bell brothers are a true AMERICAN FAMILY I love bigger stronger faster and the BELLS are great human beings

as someone who has a lot of close friends and family who struggle with mental illness this braught tears to my eyes! it takes a big person to put their heart out there!

This is powerful and heartbreaking. Thank you for this story. Lives will be touched because of this.

Your dad is such a good and decent man. He's the real American Hero if you ask me and I'm not even American. His words inspire me more as an adult than Hulk Hogan ever could as a youngster because what he is saying is real and it's honest.

Big Bro will always be looking after you guys he looking down on your success😊

And now I'm crying at work. Much love to you and your family, Mark.

What a family ❤

Mental health: I understood the matter only ONLY after I went through it. I lost 3 people from my friends and family dou to mental illness. Life is so fragile.

Respect to the Bell family very hard subject to talk about... Very open and honest... RIP MIKE (MAD DOG) BELL. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK MARK.......

Mark. this really hit home with me today. My Son Sean struggled with Bi polar as well .He also had the crazy ups and downs. Sean always wanted to be a supper person and the hero, He was unbelievable on the foot ball field so focused but he could never focus and get it together in school to continue with football. He was a very pleasing person always going out of his way to make people happy because he couldn't be happy himself. Like your parents i have been to places Iv'e never been before myself like County Jails, Emergencies rooms etc. he also self medicated with weed/pills until some one sold him his first and last snort of Heroin. i see so many similarity. i have a hole in my heart that will never go away. Its almost been five years and i still feel his struggles today.

It's crazy I paused this at 13:33 to help my daughter, I decided to look it up and it came to mark 13:33 which basically says be on guard and be alert you never know when that time will come. I'm not religious but given the topic I figured I'd look it up. I feel for you bro I lost my cousin at 21 to an overdose and it has been with me for the past 8 years. Thank you for everything you've done for the community.

Man, watched this at work and had to go hide in the bathroom and cry cause it kicked me it the chest. This coming July will be 10 years since I lost my dad and I feel the same as Chris that what makes me the most sad is that my dad would have been an awesome grandpa but never got the chance.

The pain from losing someone precious never truly disappears, but neither does the love we feel for them either.

Right in the feels... Such a deep vid

This was a sad video to watch as a mum I cannot imagine going through this hell. The Bell's are a very lucky family to have so much love to pull them through this and come out stronger because of it. You will always have your memories to help you through the darker times and with these memories he lives on.

I love you guys... But you guys clearly take from your Dad.... What a legend! So well spoken... Wise words all over... Thanks Dad and boys!

That was a great family memorial. Thank you for sharing. Just lost my younger 33 year old sister in March (same situation as your brother Mike) and lost my mom in January of this year 2018. Life, it must go on right 😪😥😪😥 so my wife and I started a gym. Hopefully one day we can share our story with you.

Right now I'm sitting here thinking about everything Mike's mother has said. My understanding is that she died not so very long ago. Just hearing her talk makes me believe that she died of a broken heart. I understand how that can happen. I'm living through that part of my life right now.

Despite his flaws, Mad Dog was an inspiration to many, including me. I will pray for the whole Bell family today.

My favorite video you've made. "I’d rather die than be average"

@19 minutes were u was playing ball as kids that bit broke my ♥

This really resonated with me. Thank you for opening up and sharing. Building off of what Papa Bell and Chris said and thinking about my own family’s losses I’ve come to a conclusion about death. Losing someone we love hurts like all hell, but what hurts the most, is thinking about everything they’ll never get to be apart of that you imagined they would be a part of, and having to make those memories without them. Love you guys, wishing you all warm memories and comfort. Rest In Peace Mike ❤️

Much love and strength to all of you from Europe

BIIIIIIG hug for you guys and your mom.

I can listen to the dad talk all day man. Liked him in the film as well. Very balanced when he's expressing himself.

Thank you Mark. Thank you...

Wow this is a beautiful video, such honesty and raw emotion really hit me ,rip mad dog

Thank you for making this video. People have no idea how this can affect someone.... especially those that don't even know they have it. Nobody goes shopping for MI, and thre's no way to defend against something if you don't know it's there. Try fighting Mike Tyson in his prime with a bag over your head and you'll get a good idea of what Mike was up against.. Bless you Mark for making this and your brother/family for being so candid. Mike knows of what you've accomplished, and we know too. It's inspiring to see how strong your family really is..

You guys are truly awesome.

I battled an opiate addiction for eight years and my family and brothers never gave up on me. Thats probably the only reason I am here today by the grace of god. Family will always be the most important thing in life!

That a a beautiful, painful, poignant story that needed to be shared. Thanks Mark, and the Bell family for having the courage to go through the pain I am sure it took to make that. It sounds like there was a whole lot of wonderful to Mike Bell, as well, and you did a great job sharing that, as well. Prayers for the family, and Mike's memory.

My big brother passed away earlier this year as a consequence of his addiction. I can totally understand your dad's frustration. There's nothing like watching someone you love destroy themselves and hurt those who love them most. I remember watching your annual Mad Dog videos in years past; this one hit especially hard. Thank you for sharing your family's story.

Another year gone by. Mr. & Mrs. Bell, I truly believe that you did you part in raising good men, which is the main purpose of a parent in life, you gave them huge hapiness, a happy home, support and a lot of understanding, each of your children had their own way of being and living, bring joy and tears, and it's the good memories that matter, those happy moments together as a family which I know are full of funny stories and beautiful moments. I am very close to my mother and I honestly have prayed to God to take me before her, because I can't imagine her not being around to love and encourage her 3 kids, to say the words to help them go on, The only love that is the purest and most realest is the one from a Mother, Mike is in a better place, don't cry about that. Mr. Bell, please write a book, you whisdom brings peace and a way of seeing things in a very positive manner, I believe you were a great guide for your kids and encouraged and loved beyond your duty; and Chris, in no way you are a pussy man lol I have cried a million tears for my brothers, lived and laughed a ton too, and being 40 years old I look back at blurry images that bring smiles to my face, I am the middle one and I can't see any of them off my life, I am sure no one would ever think any of that so I will probably cry harder when God calls either of them, honestly no shame on that, and why are you saying that Mike didn't see Mark's success? He was smiling in joy and pride for his brother right down from heaven. I truly felt this video, thank you for updating us on how you are all doing and find confort and peace in eachother, Mark, you are a true champion and a great example, Mike, the big bro is really proud on what he passed on to you and Chris, so he lives in all of your family. Life is not cruel or unfair, nor is it even a gift or a blessing, it is forever neutral. Time stops for nobody, and it certainly will not stop for you. Love your friends and family with everything you have. Keep loving until your day finally comes, because it may come sooner than you think. Love, Peace and Respect to the Bell Family, may God always look after you and know he does things in his best wisdom.

Absolutely beautiful Mark. Thank you. Thank you to your family for doing this. I have a brother that isnt doing too well also. This will be a perfect video to sit down and watch with my whole family. It hit me like nothing else has. I hope it does the same to him mostly and all of us that need him and want him here. You fathers words about we wearing out a welcome are very hard to hear but a reality my parents are going through. God bless your brother and all of the Bells. Thank you again Mark.

Wow ... that's one smart man that raised you bell brothers. 🙏

Best supertraining06 video so far. Thanks mark bell. Hug your family this christmas everyone.

I'm trying to think of the right thing to say here and i don't think there is a right thing to say. 2% of the population has diagnosed Bipolar disorder and here I am seeing pretty much my only example, Mike's a hero to me, Mark you're a hero to me, Chris you're a hero to me. Thank you, and your family for sharing, if not for you I'd have had nobody to learn from right in 2012 when I got my diagnosis. I want you to know that you're making a difference.

just watched the movie for first time. rip mad dog. loved the movie and needed to see this. i had to know more about you and your family. i see alot of myself in u. u are a great person and i admire all you have acomplished. thanks so much for this.

No mark,he was wrong.You don't suck at the deadlift.....I am almost sure he will tell you that when you meet again!

Such a beautiful tribute to your brother. Thank you all so much for sharing this with us. Big love to you all, keep being awesome. Xxx

Thank u for sharing this God bless you and your family mark
