Anyone getting this recommendation randomly 6 years later

Am I the only person who thought the dad was going to get hurt

I cant believe im saying this, but i actually feel worse for the dad having to live with the guilt. How can you feel bad for Brett? His attitude and will are UNSHAKABLE. He refused to hide his scars or shy away from it. He refused to let this affect his life. That is one sensational young man.

I cant imagine the pain the dad felt. You can see it in his eyes. My brother lost his youngest son and i can still remember seeing that pain. Being the one who caused the death takes it to even another level

When he said i saw spongebob crocs my heart dropped like a stone in water.

I feel bad for dad because he feels like it is 100 percent his fault

That poor kid, I thought he died from it, let's all just appreciate that he is alive and survived. Let's all bless for this child that God will always protect and save him. May God Bless You. Amen😔.

As a father to 2 young daughters, this really brought tears to my eyes for a multitude of reasons. First of all the horror of the realization, secondly, the sadness, devastation and guilt in the dads eyes and voice. Then came the tears of joy hearing the glorious recovery story. GOD BLESS the family. Stay safe and be well everyone!

omg I feel so bad for the dad. you can tell he’s distraught

the dad is still so hurt and probably still doesn't forgive himself

Bret has grown up to be a fine young man and has an amazing family. Love all the Casselberry family

imagine your first thought being: “I HAVE to post this to facebook to get those internet points and make sure people feel bad for me”

Why tf did I have a lawn mower ad before this video

The fact that he even LIVED and didn't bleed out from a cut artery is a miracle in itself.

That is one determined kid. The fact that he recovered that quickly and took it so well is beyond a miracle. God was for sure with him those days. I really pray his dad doesn’t feel as guilty about it anymore. Accidents happen often, in this case a bad one. I really hope his family is doing well today.

Thank you for posting this , I needed to hear this from a child! Thank you Brett for believing ! Your parents are wonderful

I feel so bad for the dad because his son is probably his everything and he almost took that away

When he asked if his dad was ok. That hurt me so much😭 This little fighter is a legend.

I'm so proud of the boy for being a trooper! I feel so bad for the dad. I have 3 kids myself and I can't imagine how he must be feeling

I hope for healing for them all, and thank the wonderful doctors, nurses, and other amazing medical staff that made all this possible.

This family is beautiful. The sons arms were dangling off and he said “is daddy okay?” 🥺🥺

Imagine how bad that dad feels. Running over your child with a lawn mower. Edit: No I’m not trying to joke around. Sorry if this seems like it. It was a tragic accident.

What an amazing little boy ! Kids have more strength then most adults . I have 5 childeren of my own and the strength and the amazing things these kids say and do is so special. God Bless this Family

What an incredible young man and such a beautiful family.

I think this is the first time I’ve ever watched a story with the claim “you will cry” in the title and I’ve actually cried.

The dad is crying while the mom posts the incident making everybody worried

This happened to my sister when she was only 4 years old. I was 3. It was only her leg that got caught in the mower. Kids are resilient at this age, and so innocent. When my mother frantically placed her on the table to call the ambulance, my sister asked for a bandaid. 😭

Its been 9 years since your tragic accident but i know from experience you probably have not gotten over it yet. My grandson, at the time of his accident, was 8 yrs old. He and his mother came in for their vacation at Pappap's and MawMaw's. Their first day here my wife an daughter went shopping and me and my grandson were going to have some pool time. We finished up pool time and I told him to stay on the pool deck while I pulled the solar cover back on. Next thing i know is he had some how gotten his leg caught between the pool cap and the deck and his little leg was in a 'U" shape. I had failed to protect my little guy. Months of healing, doctors visits and tons of prayer followed. It hurts my heart to even write about it but to me, it was my fault that he got hurt. Everyone keeps telling me it wasn't my fault and I know that but my heart and head tell me different. Every once in a while I will pass the pool in the exact location that i remember seeing my little guy screaming for PapPap to help him get his leg loose and I will almost vomit. So, I know how you must feel about your child being injured. But we serve a gracious, loving, forgiving, powerful God. Today my grandson is totally healed and healthy for which I am totally thankful for. Now we have got to get PapPap to accept and realize that things are good thanks to the Lord and he can try to put it all behind him and move forward. God Bless you and Praise the Lord both our families have a great support group who know how and believe in prayer.

While her son was missing his arms This woman is on Facebook

This poor dad. He did not want to harm his child. Don't judge him ..

This is one of many examples as to why I why I tell my kids to stay inside while I'm mowing . I'm confused as I would think that he would have at least heard his son scream when he got wounded. I almost started crying when I watched this. I hope he is recovering well, and I hope the father doesn't feel guilt for the rest of his life as it was an accident. ♥️♥️♥️

Brett is such a brave and sweet boy. What a blessing that he is happy and healthy. Bless that family 🥹

the dad feels so guilty I can feel it bro 😭😭

“i look down, i saw his lil spongebob crocs.” ..... 😢

This was a completely accident poor dad but I’m glad that kid is an hero and made it…..god bless you angel

Wow what a trooper and I’m so happy to hear that he made a full recovery on what he can do and I do want to know how he’s doing now

It’s just crazy that Bret didn’t care about the injuries and only cared about his Dad being okay. Bret is a real trooper and I’m proud of him.

His daddy looks like his soul is broken. I couldn't imagine the guilt and pain he is feeling and praise the lord that he stopped the mower when he did

I can’t imagine the heart ache the father went through. Not dismissing the suffering the child experienced. That kid will keep his father going on the good path no matter what now. He is lucky his face wasn’t ripped off or worse.

Awesome, the energy and positivity that comes from prayer is amazing!

It was horrible enough for the dad accidentally running over him once, but imagine how horrible it would feel to have to act it out AGAIN.

The dad must have felt beyond terrible

That phrase: "Dad get up! Jesus wants to lay down" ...was just beautiful

My daughter’s classmate lost half a foot when she was 3. She got away from her grandmother and ran to her mom. She was running and tried to stop. Instead, she slid and her foot went under the mower deck. Ironically, our adult neighbor got off the mower to open a gate. She hadn’t disengaged the blade, and she fell and her foot slid under the mower. I was her home health nurse, and it was severely painful and heartbreaking. Mowers must be fully respected. Poor little guy. I know it’s been 9 years, and I hope he’s doing well. He is a miracle!

Kids arms are hanging off and he wants to make sure his Dad is okay 😭 who tf cuttin Onions?!

Please, let's not judge, but be glad for the kid and pray for this family.

I searched “Wreckfest lawnmowers racing” I never thought that this would show up, especially 8 years later. Still I feel terrible for the dad.

Lovely family. Wishing u all the best❤

Aww the kid was ran over with a lawn mower and he just kept asking “how’s my dad” 😭🥺 so sad

I think the boys recovery is proof how resilient the human body can be. Such a brave lad

I knew a girl that was also run over by a mower. Her father did it, he didn't see her when he hit her. He also saved her life, due to having been active duty military and used the training they gave him that ultimately saved her life.

Something like this actually happened with a buddy of mine. His 4 year old son was playing outside while he was mowing the lawn and he slipped and slid into the mower. Luckily it was just a push mower but his son still lost his foot. Crazy it’s been ten years almost now and the kid walks around with a prosthetic foot like it never happened. He jokes about it saying “he got in a fight with a lawnmower” and “you should’ve seen the lawn mower” 😂 it doesn’t effect him much and he can run just as fast as any of the other kids. He’s a real good sport about it.

I love how there's a ad for a lawnmower before the video played

Is no one gonna talk about how much of a trooper the child was I mean he didn’t even cry or nothing

God bless his lil heart, he is a strong young man.. i lost my 1st born son in 2010, he was 17. He had an atv accident... i thank god you all had a great ending. My son is with the good lord... thats what help me to move on thru life. God is Good... love you lil man !!!!

What a brave young kid. What a hero. And the medics are pure genius. I feel so bad for the Dad.

This kid is blessed, I thought his brain got cut open🙏😱

Who else is scrolling through the comments to not be scared

I struggle with faith because of so many battles I have faced through life. I'm still struggling. I'm lost but I have not given up. Your story about your son is amazing and has to be nothing short then a miracle. I guess I will know sooner or later if all I thought was God really was. Mostly why all the bad that seems to be unending. I hope your son is doing well and he grows up to be a man worthy of the life he has been given.

Poor little guy. I can feel the fathers pain and I hope he comes to terms with what happened and isn't too hard on himself. We all see he loves his boy and they have a great relationship. Good luck to this family. On another note the mom seems way too concerned about getting attention on Facebook.

When he said "is daddy okay?" My heart got broken

Thank god the little boy survived this horrific accident 🙏🙏🙏

He is a miracle boy no doubt about it. God bless lil man and your family...

🙏🏿🙏🏼🙏🏾🙏🏽 My prayers go out to the boy and his father. I can't imagine how bad the dad felt. I hope he and his sin are doing better today and I hope Brett's dad no longer lives with terrible guilt. 😢

This hits home for me. I'll never forget holding my 6-year-old daughter in my arms walking from our neighbor's house on a snowy night. We had such a good time that night that we were being silly chasing each other and laughing. As we were approaching the house I picked her up and carried her, and as we turned into the driveway I hit the only small patch of ice and my feet completely flew out from under me. The side that I was holding her is the direction we fell, and I couldn't react or twist good enough to prevent her head from bouncing off the concrete. I watched as it happened and I'll never forget that colder than cold chill and shock that flashed through my body. It knocked her unconscious for a moment and when she came to she was crying. I freaked out and tried to rush her inside. My hands were shaking so bad I couldn't get my key in the door and out of frustration I kicked it open and took her in the bathroom to examine her head. No blood but I could tell something was wrong, especially after she threw up. My worst fear was confirmed when we arrived at the hospital and the cat scan revealed a brain bleed. My heart sank so bad I felt like I couldn't breathe. How could this happen I thought? I'm her dad and it's my ultimate responsibility to protect her from anything, and yet even with her in my arms, I couldn't save her. It was my fault. I should have seen the ice, my reflexes should have been sharper, I should have been more careful, I should have been prepared, and yet I wasn't. And because of me, my daughter was stuck in a small town hospital needing to be life-flighted to a city 3 hours away and couldn't because of the snowstorm. Eventually, everything turned out okay, but I'll never forget how badly I wished it could be me instead, how helpless I felt to do anything, and worst of all that it was me, not someone else watching her, but that it was ME that failed her. She survived, got the surgery she needed and healed up perfectly, but I do think back on it from time to time and feel gratitude that it wasn't worse.

I accidentally stabbed myself with a pencil in the hand today and I thought that was bad😢

This video hit me like a train. As a father of a lot of children and two toddlers I couldn't even imagine being responsible for doing something like this to one of my kids. I feel absolutely horrible for the poor child and his dad. Gosh that guilt must be almost unbearable. But it should be a lesson for every parent to watch closer to where your children are at all times especially while doing dangerous activities. I know I am. Bless this family and that little boy.

What an absolute miracle, my heart goes out to the family and prayers.❤❤❤

When he said he saw spongebob crocks my heart dropped

He may be tough but I can step on a Lego with out crying

You're amazing Brett! I hope you're doing well brother!

God bless little brett and his family and all the people who prayed for his recovery 🙏🏿

GOD I PRAY THAT THIS MAN WILL BE HEALED AND CARED FOR

“I looked under the mower and all I seen was spongebob crocks” that really got me going😭

I've watched this 3 times in the past few years and KZfaq put it back on my recommended list still a heart breaking story

Didnt leave me in tears, but left me knowing this little dude is growing up with a special someone in his corner. Keep being you little Dare Devil!

The part when he said "I saw SpongeBob crocs" I got chills 😭

I broke down when he said, “Jesus wants to lay down” 😭 This is truly heartwarming. 🥺

I was six years old when I was riding on the back of a ride-on lawn mower with my babysitter, when all of a sudden a shooting pain in my foot and my pinky toe was dangling by a piece of skin. I still have no idea to this day what actually cut my toe off, but it was fixed back on lol. It's hard to listen to stories when you know kids are getting hurt

God bless you and your wonderful son

Wait... he calls casts, "cactuses" ok I gotta admit that’s pretty adorable

This is so sad, his dad feels so horrible and dosen't even forgive himself.

Almost 2 years ago my mom tripped on a rock and the lawn mower came backwards on her foot. The surgeon said that she was less than a millimeter from hitting the major artery running in her foot. She almost lost her foot but they saved it. We were so worried about infection setting in, they didn't mention that in this video but that's another very scary part about these kinds of accidents. I hope he doesn't blame himself, you did what you could with the information you had at the time. Thank god he didn't lose his son because I can't imagine how I'd forgive myself if I did that.

Yep that’s a tear jerker of a story for sure. Thanks for sharing….. I will be more mindful when Iam operating equip such as this around my kids and others. God Bless

I would've has a panic attack instantly if I was the father

Those 5.9k dislikes are people who don’t have a true heart.

So glad for this miracle. Kid can start a serious stand up career promoting his dads landscape qualities. Hope they one day can laugh about it how hard it even seems. This kid is going to reach for the stars with that attitude!

I'm so sorry Dad and the little angel boy that you had to go through this trauma 😭🙏

That little kid was so calm and so sweet, who thinks Jesus was actually there?

Why am I binge watching all these sad stories at 11 at night ?

Horrific and Amazing! God Bless this family! Accidents can happen in a split second and happen to anyone. I feel horrible for everyone involved but glad it all turned out ok

This was a terrible, tragic accident, but has anyone talked about how he didn’t just go move the playhouse to an area he had already mowed?

My heart jumped when he said “all i saw was sponge bob crocs”.

Why did I cry when I heard about the kid and his arms but the little boy was worried about his dad and not even crying 😢 thank you for the likes

Anyone else randomly getting this 9 years after it’s post?

Omg, this is emotional. I just can't imaging that happening to my 2 year old brother, I would scream and cry like never before 😢

“Daddy, get up” “Why?” “Jesus wants to lay down..” I’m crying bless his heart

I feel like the neighbors cared more than the mom.

I’m so sorry for your loss

I’m glad Brett is doing good 👍 he will be in my prayers
