nba superstars? find out how cutting edge technology is putting gamers into the game itself. it's all coming your way next on game changers. [ music ] [ music ] kevin: welcome to game changers. i'm kevin frazier, and we have some incredible stories to share with you today. all right, let's start off with one of the nfl's elite players. cincinnati bengals wide receiver aj green is a four-time pro-bowler, and it's thanks to many of his improbably catches, especially in the end zone, but even more improbable was his rise from humble beginnings. check out how a small town guy with a small town mentality became a big game playmaker.

man: i'd like to present to you from the town of summerville a proclamation. i, william c. collins, mayor of the town of summerville, proclaim saturday, july the 11th, 2015, as aj green day. what you mean to the young people in this community, we appreciate your support and your mentorship. [cheering and applause] kevin: knowing where aj green came from helps paint the picture of the man he is today. aj: growing up in summerville was just, like -- it was real simple, and i think that's why i'm so simple. i'm not aj the superstar or aj the wide receiver. i'm always aj who grew up here, still a little boy. kevin: it also illustrates why he's so passionate about the kids growing up in his hometown. three years ago he started the aj green skills camp, which has become a summertime staple at his alma mater of summerville high school. joe: they've been talking about this camp for weeks. they look forward to it every year because he's so down to earth. he really cares about these kids. he cares about this program, this town, and he's proud to be from here.

aj: i started it because, you know, i always want to give back to my hometown. it's a lot of memory here, and, so, it's always good to come back and put on for kids of my community. kevin: it's this community that has witnessed aj's rise from a budding young high school star to one of the nfl's elite receivers. at just 27 years old, green has already been named to four pro bowls and is one of only two players in nfl history to have one thousand yards receiving in each of his first four years. but his path to nfl stardom hasn't been without its share of hurdles and tragedy. when aj was just four years old he lost his older brother in a fatal car accident. then in the summer before his senior year, tragedy struck again. louis mulkey, a coach and mentor of aj's and a firefighter in the city of charleston, lost his life in the line of duty. aj: coach mulkey was like a second dad to me.

he just didn't preach about football. he preached about my academics. i remember he came and sat in all my classes in my eighth grade year, and in my freshman year i had two c's. he made me go to summer school. he made me pay for my own summer school and got a's in those two classes. kevin: with the guidance he learned from coach mulkey, aj now looks to be the same mentor to the community that made him. aj: you change one like, you know, it's a start. so, that's what i try to do. i just try to make somebody smile or, you know, change one person's life, and that's a start for everything. i just want to thank the parents for allowing these kids to participate in this camp, man, and all i can say is suck up all the information from these older guys out here, man. give a hundred percent, and everybody just have a good time out here today. [applause] kevin: no matter how many records he sets or pro bowls he's selected to, they pale in comparison to what he means to summerville, because for

aj green, home is where the heart is. nick: it's so important because the community needs someone to look up to, to come back, and for the guys that play on his old team, i mean, it's just -- it's worth all the tea in china, and i wish other people would do that. more guys like this need to step up and do this. you don't have to be an nfl player to. you can be anybody up and down the street. we just need more guys to invest in tomorrow. joe: for aj to come back and for these kids to see him, because he played on this field where they're playing. you know, he was in that weight room, the same weight room they workout in. you know, he played here on friday night. so, they see him, someone who's been there, done that. you know, it gives them hope for the future. aj: once you tell your story, you know, always gives somebody else hope, because if he can make it, you can give somebody -- another kid the belief that they can make it. don't worry about who's in the stadium. it's football. i learned from a long time -- i mean, a long time ago, you know, if you -- if you love what you do, you'll never work a day in your life. the sky is the limit for you all young guys, man. thank you all.

kevin: welcome back. up next is a story you'll only see here on game changers. kevin pearce was on top of the snowboarding world before it suddenly came crashing down, but instead of giving up, he rose above. game changers traveled to the northeast to bring you this unforgettable story of tragedy and triumph. growing up near the green mountains of vermont, skiing and snowboarding are a way of life, and for kevin pearce it was no different. the youngest of four boys, kevin did what younger brothers often do, followed the leaders.

kevin p.: adam and andrew were snowboarding, and david was skiing, and this was something that they were doing that was cool at the time. it was, like -- and i wanted to be cool. i wanted to be as cool as my older brothers. adam: he was always the younger brother kind of following in our footsteps, and then there was kind of this switch that hit, and he started just getting really good, and he started winning contests. kevin p.: it's hard to understand how that feels because there aren't many people in this world that are able to do what they love, what they love very most. snowboarding is, you know, the farthest thing from a job. it's like, people are going to pay me to go and do what i love most? like, this is not real, and i got to that place. kevin: that place was the top of competitive snowboarding, where kevin had suddenly emerged alongside the seemingly unbeatable shaun white. it would be at the 2010 winter olympics in vancouver where kevin set out to become the sport's new alpha dog, and amidst his training in park city,

utah, only one obstacle stood in his way, a highly dangerous and difficult trick known as the cab double cork. kevin p.: it was like, i need to learn how to do these double corks if i'm going to get to vancouver, and i went to park city one morning on december 31st. i tried this trick, and i did the cab double cork, and it just... adam: you never want to get that call from a friend that your brother has been hurt. you know, when my good friend tyler called me, who was at the halfpipe when he got hurt, when he said, you know, "you're going to have to get out here. this is pretty serious," i knew it was bad. kevin: unconscious, kevin was airlifted to university of utah hospital in salt lake city, where he would lay in a coma for six long days. the diagnosis was a traumatic brain injury,

and with his dreams of olympic gold all but gone, he now began the fight for his life. adam: i remember the first time walking into his hospital room, and, you know, he's just there, completely looks like he's dead. he's got 30 tubes in every part of his body, and yeah, i remember just basically taking a look at him and then just walking back outside and just bursting into tears. kevin p.: i spent 27 days in the critical care and then two weeks in the acute care, and i don't remember a single day of that. i don't remember being at that hospital for that first month-and-a-half. kevin: courageous and competitive by nature, kevin began the long road to recovery at craig hospital in colorado, his family by his side every step of the way. kevin p.: my family has hands down been the number one piece of this recovery, and without a

doubt it's because of them. adam left his job in utah and spent eight hours a day doing each one of these therapies with me for the entire three-and-a-half months. he kind of, like, set that bar of where i needed to get, and it was, you know, because of him that i was able to make the amount of progress that i did. adam: they'll ask me a question, like, oh, it's amazing that you quit your job and spent that time with him, but for me it was -- it was never a question. kevin: on may 1st, 2010, kevin was finally back home in vermont, and with his initial recovery nearly complete, the thought of returning to the sport he loved still weighed heavily on his mind. adam: i think what was great about kevin is he really worked with us as a family to, like, listen and take some advice, and when it was the right time for him to get on a snowboard, i definitely felt like he was going to be okay because we put him in a situation that was going to be safe.

kevin: in december of 2011, almost two years after his fall, kevin pearce's miraculous comeback was finally complete, and he was back on the mountain. kevin p.: i think doing that, but doing it in the right way and how i have done it is what's most important, not that i got back on my board and i did that, but that i'm back on my board and i'm not competing. kevin: with competitive snowboarding a thing of the past, kevin looked inward and would find new direction in life through his own injury. kevin p.: it took me a long time to understand that i wasn't going to be able to get back to snowboarding. it was like, what do you do? and then i went and saw this doctor, and he was talking to me, and he was doing these scans and this different stuff, and then he was like, "you need to love your brain. the most important thing you can do is to love your brain." announcer: coming up, the amazing conclusion of kevin pearce's story. you won't believe how he's using his own tragedy and

triumph to help traumatic brain injury survivors around the world, and then, what happens when you combine science and technology? better bring your game face. if it doesn't work fast... you're on to the next thing. clinically proven neutrogena® rapid wrinkle repair. it targets fine lines and wrinkles with the fastest retinol formula available. you'll see younger looking skin in just one week. one week? this one's a keeper. rapid wrinkle repair. and for dark spots rapid tone repair. from neutrogena®.

kevin: nearly six years ago former snowboarder kevin pearce was at the top of his sport until a near fatal crash and traumatic brain injury changed his life forever. now through his foundation called love your brain, kevin has become a national spokesman for recovering brain injury survivors. sharing his story along the way, he seeks to convey one simple message.

kevin p.: there's nothing more important than your brain, and you need to love it like you love anything else in life. for me, it's going out there and talking to these millions of people that have injured their brains that do have the ability to heal, and providing that help and support has been very impactful and very cool for me to be able to do something that feels like it's so needed right now in such a huge way. adam: love your brain is not only the message that kevin and we all live by, but it turned into this foundation, the love your brain foundation, and what we're really all about is creating community to improve the lives of people with brain injury. kevin: the foundation's latest initiative is to help that community through the spiritual exercise of yoga, teaching and incorporating techniques aimed specifically at brain injury survivors, beginning in kevin's home state of vermont. kevin p.: the number one thing i feel like that has healed my brain the most is yoga.

it was just, like, the most amazing thing for me to be able to just, like, calm my brain and calm my mind, just, like, slow down, yet i was moving. sasha: i'm a physical therapist. i used to work in a rehab hospital where i was working with brain injuries and spinal cord injuries, and i'm hoping to gain better knowledge how to support my patients that i see and to better understand their mind-body connection. steve: brian injury people need this desperately, and his charisma and his ability to get this out will be huge. it's the perfect way to get someone who has difficulty with social issues involved, because yoga people are wonderful people, and they're accepting, and it just feels good. sasha: with a traumatic brain injury there's so much physical rehab that you go through, that sometimes the spiritual side of thing and the mental side of thing gets left to the wayside, and that's a big proponent of how somebody recovers from

something, is how they can feel confident in themselves and see a future. kevin: he will never be a world class snowboarder again, but ironically, kevin's crash has given him clarity in the years since, allowing him to carve a new path to enlightenment for himself and for others around the world. kevin p.: it's really hard to come to grips with understanding of how different my life will now be because of that fall, but that i -- i have taken the path of where i do still have hope, through the foundation, to give the hope and to not allow people to give up and never to settle for less. adam: pain is inevitable, but suffering is a choice, and i think when you realize that -- we're all going to go through painful situations, but i think if we can build resilience and resources

[ music ] kevin: inside brand jordan's terminal 23 in new york city, gaming insiders and journalists have gathered for a private unveiling of nba live 16 and its new technology, gameface hd,

and just like any cutting edge application, its evolution started with a simple idea. ryan: the feature really came about from how we started to bring in the scans of these nba players. so, we've been working on our scanning technology for probably two years now, and we've scanned probably over 80 percent of the nba. kevin: cover athlete russell westbrook is no stranger to the authenticity made possible by this very technology. look no further than his own face. russell: when i first seen it i was like, man, that looks exactly like me. i think that's the most important part of a video game. try to get as much detail as possible to make a video game great. ryan: the technology that we created to scan the players was giving us such great results, we knew that this would be such an awesome feature. we wanted fans to be able to scan their face and basically live out their dreams as an nba player. kevin: from there the process of turning fantasy into reality began. ea's developers combined the science of scanning with cutting edge mobile technology, delivering the

result straight into the palm of your hand. connor: we had to embed that same sort of application and technology into a cell phone app, which was extremely challenging. ryan: we learned that being able to put this app on a mobile device allows players to be able to scan themselves anywhere they want and really find the best lighting condition possible to get the best looking scans. turn my head to the middle now, to the end, and that's it. that data gets processed and turned into a 3d head, and then basically that scan goes to our cloud servers, gets processed, and then it gets beamed back down into the game. connor: it's so fun to play sports games or hoops games. if you want to be like carmelo anthony or russell westbrook, like, that's super fun, but what's even cooler is if you can insert yourself into the game. kevin: gameface hd represents more than a fancy new feature. it illustrates ambition and achievement, proving that no idea is an impossible feat with the right amount of imagination.

russell: ten years ago you would never think that you would be able to do such a thing in a video game. it's crazy to be able to see that evolve. connor: something like scanning your face on a phone and uploading it to the video game that you buy was, like -- that would be a crazy idea. great thing about being a kid now is there's so many opportunities in -- if you want to develop games, like, you can be an engineer. you can be an animator, and you can work on the player movement, or you can be an artist and you can model players, texture them, or build, you know, crazy buildings. like, there's just so many different opportunities. ryan: games today are built by teams. it's built by a lot of people because these games are so complex. so, the cool thing is you can work with a lot of different experts. i started as a tester. i became an artist. then i became a game designer. so, i've done a lot of different things and worn many different hats. even if you go down one path, you can always kind of go into another and just really explore your dreams.

cleans so well, it keeps your underwear cleaner. so clean...you could wear them a second day. charmin ultra strong. it's 4 times stronger, and you can use up to 4 times less. enjoy the go with charmin. kevin: thanks for hanging with us today, and remember, no matter who you are or what you do, you, too, can be a game changer.
