  9. The most inspirational for me was was 14 year old Julia Bluhm. Just the fact that she stod up against a teen Magazine is amazing, but that she won to is important. Media send out so many wrong Messages on how the ``perfec`` body are to Young girls.
    Teens are insicure by nature, and media normaly dosen't make it any better. So that an 14 year old girl could make an different is so Nice to see.

  23. I think the four NIgarian girls is very inspirational. That they make urin to electricity It can do that very many humans can get electricity. Torjus 8C

  24. I mean that Beer did the most fantastic thing, the other teens did fantastic tings too, but it was something with Beer that took my attention away from the other ones. Bullying is a really big problem, and children don’t get seen because of it. Very many children have some big talents but they fade away with all the other children and they can’t get the chance to improve that they can something others maybe don’t can. But yeah.. Beer did make a really cool/cute video about exactly this; he got the message out to people. And as you’ve seen in the end, someone did really see him, and his fantastic breakdance!! Aaaand he was just so cute <3

  26. I thought that number11/ the pee powered generator was most interesting and inspiring. because its a great way to get "free" energy and me myself is fond of building things. so i thought seeing that only a few people with scraps to use can build a generator like that is amazing

    -Axel 8c

  27. I think the most inspiration was the four nigerians because the generator helps a lot and doesn`t need much money and time to operate. It demands one litre urin for producing six hours elecricity. It has also helped 160 millions citizens to get electricity.

  28. Marian Bechtel. She can save millions of innocents in countries with war. It is so cheap to make that it can be given away for free or sold cheaply to the citizens that need it. (I have no idea why someone would say Justen Beer or Julia Bluhm is the most inspirational, making a change.org petition and dancing to forget bullying isn't that inspiring)

  31. To be honest, Jacob Hughes took my breath away. In my opinion, he was the most inspirational of the 14. I think it's really generous and thoughtful to share something nice with other people, like Jacob did. This text, about Jacob Hughes' generosity, made me smile. I think it's gorgeous how this little boy decided to share some of his happiness.

    Nigerian Girls: They make a machine that cost them 68$ and it makes urine to electricity! Fantastic, this can change the world totally, in a good way!
    Nithin Tumma: He is seventeen years old and made a so good cancer "potion" that he won a price for 100 000$ It have to be good!

  35. This Tennessee student mailed his hard-earned Halloween candy stash to kids in New York and

    Hughes' generosity is inspiring.)
    This boy inspired me, because he is young but he can share with another people.
    He is not selfish as many people in XXI century. He proved to be alive we should
    help each other. We should learn from him and help each other, our friends from school,
    and family, too but not only people which we know but people which need help. Adrian 8D
