To my beautiful friend Nancy McRitchie, who volunteered to take the most critical Covid patients in the intensive care units until she died of it herself. She was in her rally 50’s. RIP my friend. May God reward you richly for your love.
Of the many brave souls who could be added to this list, I recommend Miki Endo (1986-2011). An employee of Minimisanriku's Crisis Management Department, Endo remained at her post, broadcasting disaster advice and warnings during the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake and Tsunami, eventually dying when the town was overwhelmed by the tsunami. She sacrificed her life to save so many. She was just 25 years old. Her body was discovered and identified on 23rd April 2011.
As a long time married guy, I have a piece of advice/motto. “Choose your mate carefully.” The “Brazilian Wonder Woman” photo is a perfect visual representation of which I speak. (a rock solid lady handling business, while a healthy looking fella stands there phone in hand)
Still, there are so many great people who may never have their lives acknowledged, and yet we continue to frequently applaud those who use popularity alone to make a living whether they do good with it or not.
4:50 Sgt Deepak Pun's medal was obviously well deserved but there's also a bit of British Army humour in the choice of medal. Having run out of ammunition he did beat at least one Taleban fighter to death with his machine gun tripod - and they gave him the Conspicuous Gallantry Cross. Images of cloaks on muddy puddles to keep dainty feet dry...or Deepak Pun turning someone's head into jam. Military Medal, nah. Distinguished Service Cross, nah Victoria Cross....nah, let's call it "gallantry" Very brave man and a superb soldier
In 2010, I had to switch bedrooms for my cousin and his wife since they were up here from Atlanta. I woke up due to the smell of smoke and discovered the deck was on fire. I woke up my cousin and his wife who woke up their kids. I was causing so much noise I ended up waking my stepmom up. We all got outside while I was on the phone with 911 and so was my cousin's wife. My stepmom and cousin started to spray the deck down because it was one board away from the house! By the time the fire fighters came the fire had almost been put out. I ended with a bit of PTSD because of this event and on medicine for anxiety that the fire had caused. I don't like to think about this event because it proves that I still have mental scars. I talked to my mom and dad (who is my rock) about my PTSD.
This was an amazing video !!!!❤ So many brave people and so many heroic people ! I cried, about the people who lost their lives . And I smiled ,thinking of the people who savived such horrible, terrible ordeals . I will watch such an inspiring amazing video , again . Thank You !!!
6:37 This was the Halifax explosion in Nova Scotia. This man had left the office and was headed to safety when he remembered the trains coming in. He went back. He died to save their lives. There are several other people who did amazing things during and after this explosion. It’s astounding to learn about
The Mongolian huntress with her eagle may not make any sense to a lot of people. If you don’t understand (even if you do) I highly recommend watching the docu/film “the eagle huntress”. Possibly the most beautiful film I’ve ever seen.
an accident like john thompson's killed my great grandfather...he got caught up in a threshing machine. all very inspiring and heart touching photos. thank you.
The human body, despite being a fragile meat sack that can be in months of pain if you sleep wrong, is ALSO incredibly resilient against falls, collisions, and enduring heat and stress. We are the paradox of the universe

I love that being metal AF is used as a term for those who go above and beyond to succeed. Saying "That rocks!" is cool, but saying something is metal is even more so. Long live thrash!

I'm sorry for the loss off your friend and hope you find comfort in your memories of her 💖

Tears and smiles throughout this one. Beautiful, uplifting & inspirational. Thank you very much!
Uplifting, heartbreaking, inspiring, awesome. Thank you.
A three foot tall man relentlessly rescuing people after an earthquake? Not all heroes wear capes.

that was brilliant some amazing people true heroes
7:32 Charles Lightoller (the second officer on board the Titanic) deserves a movie about his iconic life.

You're proof that not all heroes wear capes. (Unless you do wear capes, which is a valid fashion choice.)

What I always remember, the anchor of the ship is still where it landed a couple miles away.

Wow these are all absolutely amazing
2 separate women have survived falling from a plane followed by an 8-9 day trek through jungle? That's insane.

Not too long ago, 4 siblings aged 13,9,4 and 1 survived for 40 days after a plane crash in Colombia. Its hard to believe, but it happens!

I think the second one 'just' survived a plane crash and walked out.
Incredible, inspiring images and words. Severe lack of any, even one, metal riff

Carlos Hathcock. And big balls too.
Miracle stories.
Interesting bunch of stories! However 9:18( photo of shark & human) is clearly a photoshop fake
Too bad the shark photo is from JAWS….that’s “Bruce”, the mechanical shark rigged up for these types of shots
Right, the caption says, " a 7 - foot shark" .🤨
Truly amazing video
Armless pilot how odd and how does she fly?
she has wings, instead
Perhaps she steers her small plane with her feet?
She uses her feet. I believe she also flies children with disabilities. Armless people can do a LOT with their feet.
So I like to fact check ... Cool story bra.
Some of these are really good. But why so much incitement to violence?
Because some situations require good men to fight against evil , otherwise evil prevails , no one wants that.
And yet people get award for doing absolutely nothing
These people deserve all the praise and awards 🫡
and they gave a certain person a Nobel Prize when he droned people to death, sickening isn't it , the people in this are heroes, he isn't.
