Marine Carries Boy With Prosthetic Leg Across The Finish Line
Sep 26, 2025
Marine Carries Boy With Prosthetic Leg Across The Finish Line. When an 11-year-old boy with a prosthetic leg fell during a triathlon, he was determined to finish no matter what. A U.S. Marine volunteering at the race saw his incredible spirit and made a decision that touched the hearts of everyone watching.
This is the inspirational true story of Ben Baltz, a young cancer survivor, and Private Matthew Morgan, a U.S. Marine. During the Sea Turtle Youth Triathlon, Ben's prosthetic leg broke during the final run. Instead of letting him give up, Private Morgan hoisted the young boy onto his back and carried him the final half-mile to the finish line, embodying the Marine Corps motto to "leave no one behind." This is a powerful story of selflessness, determination, and the unbreakable human spirit.
