Summary

After watching the Twin Towers collapse on 9/11, Noah Galloway immediately enlisted in the military at just 21 years old. Three months into his second deployment, an IED exploded, ripping apart the Humvee he was driving and nearly ending his life. He awoke five days later to find both his left arm and left leg amputated. After he finally returned home, he was overcome by a deep depression. When his marriage dissolved and he spent 10 days in county jail for a DUI, he knew he had to turn his life around. Determined to be a good role model for his children, he slowly clawed his way out of depression and into the gym to begin his mental and physical rebirth. His grit and determination began to attract media attention, landing him on the cover of Men’s Health Magazine and multiple TV appearances on Ellen, The Today Show, and the military-inspired competition series American Grit. He also earned third place on Dancing With the Stars. Get inspired to live with no excuses by this author, retired Army Sergeant and real American hero in this episode of Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu.

0:23.5	Everybody, welcome to Impact Theory.
0:26.1	You are here, my friends, because you believe that human potential is nearly limitless,

0:34.4	So our goal with this show and company is to introduce you to the people and ideas that will help you actually execute on your dreams. Today's guest is a real American
0:44.1	hero. After watching the Twin Towers collapse on 9-11, he immediately enlisted in the military. Having
0:50.0	no interest in playing it safe, he had to directly for the front lines joining the
0:54.4	infantry and getting himself assigned to the 101st Airborne Division.

1:45.3	but despite the ups and downs, the second act of his life has actually been even more incredible
