Hero's!

Wonderful news!

I wonder how many of us would go to great lengths to save a persons life, who is in dire distress?

Fortunately, there are such Folks around!

There are; "doers", and then there are; "onlookers".

.....How would I cope, in such a surprise situation?

...I really don't know...

Very uplifting story with a happy ending.

I'd like to think I would do all I could to help is such circumstances, I did try to help out once when I and a friend witnessed a car crash but there was little we could do as the man was already gone except direct traffic and describe what happened to the Police.
