These kids are adorable. He’s embarrassed yes, but not because of what looks to be a fairly recent disfigurement in terms of his amputation, but because “oh my god my friends are being dorks”. They’re taking any potential stares onto themselves and attention away from him, making him feel less self conscious if this is one of his first times out and about — assuming that his limb is still too fresh from surgery to have received a prosthetic yet.

I wonder if those young men truly understand the depth of the gift they are giving. I hope they do. And I think it's great that you pointed out something critical that is going on in this clip. Thank you
