He was my coach at extreme couture and Robert was THE BEST COACH. He made you feel so welcomed and like you can do anything you put your mind too. Love that guy even though I only went there for 1-2yrs. We miss yah big man!

Shockingly familiar. My brother went to the same mountain we hiked at as kids but instead of shooting himself, he jumped off. Sorry for your loss.

As someone that’s battling with depression currently and suicidal thoughts, this is very relatable. Sometimes it feels like we’ll never climb out of this hole, and if we were gone, no one would even remember our names.

R.I.P. to the legendary Robert Follis.

This one hit me hard. Much respect. RIP Robert Follis.

This hurt me too watch, all Robert wanted was his family, he was craving love from his mom and Dad and he didn't get it, so he was drowing himself in alcohol, after losing his brother then seeing his Mom and Dad and them not letting him in their lives I believe pushed him over. This story is so heartbreaking. I know the feeling of being the strong one for everybody else yet you're dying inside. Not a good feeling. Robert you will always be remembered. He made sure everybody else was ok meanwhile he was dying inside.

So sad but So motivating. Shed more tears in this video then most of sad movies I have seen over the years. God bless Follis family.

Accomplishment, money, love, discipline; none of it is enough. For some of us just getting out of bed and letting our moms know we are still alive feels like a win… and that is something he didn’t have.

Amazing documentary to one of the great coaches of MMA

My father, mother and grandma died when I was ten. I suffered from depression for almost 30 years. The only thing that keeps me going is my two sons and wife. Life can be hard asf. But we need to keep stepping forward.

Had the privilege of training at Roberts when in Vegas. Got some training in with some of his guys and was on my own throughout. Very Kind man who went out of his way to help me and looked out for me at times out of gym hours when he did not have to. Very shocking & sad to hear about him.

This is one of the best productions you guys have put out

Trained at Coutures 2010-2012 and never did meet Robert. Wish I had, but I trained with Eric and he is a phenomenal coach who reflects Robert's training style. Ray Sefo had just arrived at Extreme Coutures and he too was a coach. SBG taught contemporary JKD, so it was more relevant to MMA than self defense street fighting. I now see how it all was interconnected in hindsight. The reason I was attracted to MMA was that the intense training protocol kept me from depression and anxiety. Sad to see this happen to two brothers as it breaks my heart.

Glad the UFC is sharing the sad yet life changing stories

It isn't a one day fight, not a week, it isnt a month, and every situation is so different, but so many little indicators get missed. Anyone else sit outside a hospital, I couldn't afford to go in anymore, stress does things that no disease can do. When u mix that with bipolar, depression, trauma. I know I will have to manage it, and it takes time to get out of that deep place. Ice bath help bc it's the only thing that shuts down that scrambling in my mind, for me it slowed it down when I was 5 seconds from plunging. My brain would empty before I touched the water. Started this after rehab, I use alcohol to try to survive to give me a window, didn't work bc the aftermath and how it poisons u. Bandage. Can't fall a sleep and don't want to get wake up. Walking to the kitchen feels like 100 miles. You wake up in it and sometimes it wakes u up. You also start popping in and out. Those windows get tighter and tighter.

wow 😢💔 legend🙏

trauma! especially from young age, and in family related or relationship related situations is a massive part of depression and suicidal tendencies! i have lost many friends and the story is almost always very similar, deep trauma that haunts ppl and leads them to bad decisions in life! ask for help, or let ppl in to help if ever possible, ppl do care, ppl will listen, your not always as alone as you think, you are stronger than your thoughts! Rip Robert, God Bless

The sad thing is when you're saving everybody else's life yet can't save your own. That cuts deep

This hit me hard 😢 RIP U WONT BE FORGOTTEN

Id give my left nut just to be able to watch some of the old Team Quest practices. Everyone who came from that team is an absolute Legend and All Time Badass. This is such a powerful story on so many levels. God Bless all who are struggling with depression ...... take it to God or a person trusted , i promise there is a brigjter light waiting. I know this well thru experience. Thanks for this Video

Fck man what a legend. Heartbreaking story. Can’t believe this only has like 30k views

"They fuck you up" by Philip Larkin. RIP Robert.

Rip coach 🙏🏼 mental health is a real B!

Even as a young man I never viewed suicide like other people. I understood on a spiritual level that some beings simply don't want to exist on this plane anymore and have the courage to leave. I unfortunately don't have that courage and will face my death on fate's terms. Memento Mori

One thing my life mentor told me that sticked whit me was “ who saves the life guard “

So sad... What nice people

I was a child in the JWs. And being dissfellowshiped is no joke. You basically don't exist to any current JW. Meaning, even if you meet them in a shop you aren't allowed to acknowledge them.... even if it's your only child.

this is deep

Watching this after Kevin Lees retirement. 😢Rip brother

RIP

As someone who just put the gun to my head cause I have losses in the sport and is going thru some things rn this hit hard maybe I’m not ready… my daughter loves me soo much she’s the reason i break down when I try to pull this makes me think I was just trying to find the damn gsp doc lol before I went out damn

❤

Maaan 😢

It’s sad statistics show once someone in a family commits suicide it’s almost easier for another member of the family to do the same thing. Please remember this if you know of a family going through this be there for them. You never know what they’re going through.

Hey UFC FIGHT PASS PLEASE UPLOAD UFC WATCHPARTY'S

“We remember everything but we’re all a disorganized file cabinet”

super sad. i wonder why he didnt want to or try to get mental health help. maybe he did or maybe he was embarrassed by it? im all for someone being able to off themselves but you have to at least try for a while. gotta at least give it a few years of trying to get help from doctors/outside sources and if youre still suffering by then, i totally understand it. sad for everyone around that person none the less.

People stay clear of these Cults. If you ever join a church that's says you can't be around a certain person run Fast......As a practicing Catholic I've never heard to stay away from a certain group. I see it like crazy in these Protestant Churches. Be wary of these beautiful lights n fun churches.

Not selfish, cancer patients do the same, the suffering is so unexplainable. The fake face so u protect the people around u

UFC please make pensions and medical welfare plans for these guys....the head was never made to be hit constantly...it’s a choice they’re stupid but come on they entertain and teach the rest of the world how to fight if there’s a situation like that in life...come on DAna do this for ur legacy

Wow very emotional story, suicide IS selfish tho yall, if you’re struggling please talk to someone, a problem shared is a problem halved, you matter and God loves you

I hate to say this as its a boring comment but Miesha Tate is sooo fine, perfect looks , what I wouldn't give ...

People should have God in their lives.

Nickstick shouldn't be part of this...

i'm not allowed to talk about the downfalls of religion..i'm on thin ice with youtube already.

False religion can be extremely dangerous. Unclean spirits are unintentionally invited in where they destroy everything they can. If you're going to reach to the spiritual realm you must weigh the spirits carefully. The truth is you don't know what you don't know. Dear Lord may you bless and keep Robert and his brother and his entire family, may you make your presence in their lives so undeniable that it give them an everlasting faith in you. Lord I pray that you put a hedge of protection around these people, deliver them from the unclean spirits that are wreaking havoc in their lives. Fill their hearts with your love and guidance Lord for you know better than anyone the immense strife we the generations existing in the final days of end times are going through. In the mighty name of Christ Jesus I pray, amen.
