Many of you have heard this story. (Sorry I am so far behind on updating the blog, but I am working to catch up.) When I first heard about this gentleman attempting to catch the falling fan, I thought it was a spur-of-the-moment response. The story below tells otherwise. Apparently this guy pleaded with the woman for quite a while not to jump, so he had plenty of time to think through the implications of staying underneath her... and he chose to stay anyway. Semper Fi!!

Bystanders team up to lift a burning vehicle off a motorcyclist. (Picture Courtesy WDBO-TV) There are people everywhere who refuse to stand by and let another person face death or injury alone, even though it is not their job to help. This blog honors their courage.

At 90, John Shears Shows that Guts Have no Age Limit
The man jumped in front of a charging horse to protect the life of a child. This is a classic example of "doing what you have to do" regardless of the potential consequences. Thank you, Mr. Shear. Happy 92nd!
