He knew that he would die and he would only die in one night. He noticed that it was always difficult to kill him and his body was always weaker. But he had a dream, a dream to create the billion people. His name was Israel Kamakawivoole. A man from Hawaii, often named Jantle Giant, with a voice like an angel. His greatest challenge was strong weight. At the end of his life he weighed over 340 kg. But he needed a lot of oxygen and moved himself to the room. But he never got up. He played ukulele, sang further and brought the culture to the world. In 1993, late in the night, he took a studio to take a bath. In a few minutes he left in Hinein and there, almost alone, he called a song. "Ruy" is only a single night and exactly this song changed everything. He became one of the most famous melodies in the world, a symbol for hope, peace and humanity. Today he has this song about 1.5 billion views on YouTube and his voice continues.
