Born with no legs and only one arm --- he stands tall, determined, with eyes focused on his dreams.

Of seven siblings, only 19-year old Marco Tinamisan was born with this condition. He grew up being ridiculed and mocked that her mother Marissa worried for him. But instead of wallowing in self pity, Marco saw his condition as a challenge.

When he was in Grade 5, while swimming in a water source used for irrigation, a coach discovered Marco's innate skill in swimming. He then trained the young boy and eventually let him join several competitions. Marco now has countless medals from all the swimming contests he participated in.

Marco even qualified for the Palarong Pambansa twice but did not win both times.

Now, for the third time, he will again try his luck.  First, he needs to qualify by joining the CALABARZON Regional Sports Competition. But the odds are stacked against Marco because some of his competitors have both arms while others have legs.

Will Marco finally achieve his dream?

This Saturday, be inspired by Marco's story of persistence in Kara David's documentary, “Langoy, Marco”.  I-Witness airs  after Celebrity Bluff on GMA 7.
