Left her ring in her wallet and lost it at a bar. Wonder why she was so frantic about finding it. Imagine explaining that to her husband.
Lol True! Didn't think of that! I was too busy admiring the good that happened lol
Riiigggghhhttt bru
Bro I was thinking the same thing!!!
Or she doesn’t want it stolen
EXACTLY!
crazy how life turns out. if that woman hadnt tried to cheat on her husband , that kid wouldnt have a home.
LOL, I guess that's right. :-)
😂. I guess that’s true.
How are you so sure that she wasn't with her husband in the bar ?just asking ,clearly nothing is properly mentioned in the video so hard to judge and comment.Idiots will always think they know everything.
@@AmritenduRana31082000 its the scenario presented, why would she take her wedding ring off at a bar?
@@AmritenduRana31082000 Yeah, that's it. Her husband was w/her but it was the male bartender who got much more interested and hired a dive team, etc. Have you ever MET a man?
What a Chad move. Sees an older kid freezing in the woods, gives him a home and a job, gets a son in exchange. Absolute boss.
Don't know what a Chad move is but definetely a Boss move.
@C J I just Googled Chad move. The definition in the urban dictionary doesn't seem to fit.
Definitely not a chad move. A chad move would’ve been to beat the kid up for taking it
Naw....Chad is the reason why she took off her ring. And than stole her wallet when he found it outside waiting for an Uber.
30° is not freezing
80% of the comments about woman take out her wedding ring
15% about how good the guy was.
5% about raccoon...
Because sadly, humanity thrives on negativity.
But you gotta love how he starts running when the raccoons attack XD
Chris Thumann you left a negative comment :(
Me: "Yooooo they got Mario Kart here"
Pretty good report entertaining 😂
When he said, “I’d do anything for him”, that was so powerful.
I feel you man.
He gone give him that gawk gawk 3000

Man yall so focused on a cheating girl than a dude who literally let a homeless kid live with him NO QUESTIONS ASKED. This man is a total hero who is actually willing to take action. God bless this man!
JESUS CHRIST IS GOD AND SAVED US FROM OUR SINS THAT LEAD TO DEATH
no questions asked? Did you miss the part where he questioned him about the wallets whereabouts!?
Yea. People are addicted to the negative. And love to make someone guilty before knowing the facts.
@@jasonsmithers2448 If someone pours gasoline in your home but didn't light it... Are they guilty???
@@annoyingcat5328 What??? Please tell me you realize your question has zero relation to this…. If not, I pray you get better.
You can tell by the look on the kid's face that he's had a rough life. I'm so glad his story had a happy ending. No child deserves to suffer like that.
I went to school with him he definitely did have a hard life
the sad thing is if he was 10 years older no one would have cared and he would have gone to jail for stealing the wallet. :/

A married woman takes off her ring and puts it in her wallet before she goes into a bar. Sounds innocent.
Hahaha in her defense sometimes I take my rings off when i am washing my hands so she probably did the same
How else would she get free drinks 😂😂
@@lachere384 but she wasn't washing hands?
who goes to bars when they are married
@@terrihess3765 Most normal people.
Im in tears cause this young teen just needed someone to care and he found it in this great bar owner. Great job sir.
literally not a young teen. hes almost as old as any teen could be

so she takes her wedding ring off before she goes into the bar ...nice wife
JoAnn Lockwood You’re defending a women cheating on her husband?? If the rolls were reversed would you still defend a man cheating?
JoAnn Lockwood she was at a bar.. dont be naive
JoAnn Lockwood but it is a sin to cheat on someone you make a vow to
@@jlockwood65 Why cant you admit that this person was obviously cheating, if she lost it at the bar for good reasons why didnt her husband find it for her?
JoAnn Lockwood Tell me where RUSSELL HERNANDEZ said that ? That’s an obvious fallacy, you exaggerated his point to make it easier to attack
Aside from the cheating wife...this man is a saint...GOD BLESS him and his family!!!
Amen
Everyone says god bless like not in a rude way but that’s just a simple thing to say
@@riz15yearsago As long as everyone means it when they say it...what's the problem?
Btw...you trying to clarify that your comment isn't rude...probably means that it is in fact rude...just saying.
@@jeremym6042 ok I wasn’t trying to be rude btw
amen brother
Why do they say the kid stole the wallet? He FOUND the wallet. Huge difference
I guess its not finders/keepers if the name of the owner of the wallet was inside it.
Yeah...you have been addicted to drugs before lmao
He took the money and threw the wallet in an ocean lol did u watch the video
some of yall need to look up the difference between theft and a windfall profit....websters explains it pretty well....and this isnt theft!!!
@@BigDeezol Defending larceny with windfall gain. Are you recovering or still addicted?
Bet she dont need that ring no more
Noe Robles not she’s been exposed publicly 😂
Just for the pawn shop
lmao
I hope not, could you imagine a man doing that? Crucified.
frfr
The fact that this man took the young man in as his own, showed him love and compassion and care, will forever change that boys mindset. If his mother kicked him out, I’m assuming he also doesn’t have a daddy in his life, so that man who owns the bar will be his male role model/father figure, and it is so nice to see that because u can tell the boy genuinely loves it. He needed somebody in his life to care about him and want him to succeed and now he does and now he will.
He still misnomered him in the puff piece as did the anchor and the correspondent they called him thief the moment that adulterous woman walked away from that wallet, it was no longer hers, I believe the legal term would be LOST. He thereafter FOUND the wallet, many of us who would search for the owner think of it as wrong. But our morality has no connection to him. Finders keepers, losers weepers. isnt the law, but it isa fairly good and arguable case. There is no law forcing you to seek out the owner of lost items in the street. It is ludicrous. All three kept calling him a thief like he lifted the wallet from her purse. She didnt she wasnt robbed she lost it. He didn't steal anything he found a wallet that is not a crime any more than picking up litter on the side of road would be stealing. A possession becomes LOST when that person, not in the course of looking for the possession walked away. He found the wallet on a bench on the street in the middle of the nignt. To call him a thief as if he stolen the wallet from her purse runs the risk not only of being amoral, but it is 100 percent liable and a defamation of character
when he says "id do anything for him" at the end of the video, you can tell he means it.
The kid actually looks like it could be his son lol
Lol I think he could be his son too xd
Skitzo plot twist
silly_goose 777 I was going to say that lol
I thought exactly the same thing in all honesty, got the exact same eyes. Already know the wife is playing the field anyway lol
Hamid Hussein Why do u have to bring race into it?
Forget the ring, the compassion he felt for the boy is amazing. That's a friend for life🙏🙏
“I’d do anything for him” 🤧 man he’s just a kid and I’m happy this mad decided to take action and take this kid in
You are awesome, you open your door to this homeless kid, what a great dad, a great caring father 🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️
What a great guy
I was that kid 67 yrs
Id do anything for him, other than remove another raccoon from his garbage.
- Boy
lol
xD
THIS is what CAN happen when people care enough about others. Hearts OPEN ALL around!!
i agree so much! :')
I agree.....She never would have got her wedding ring back that was hidden in her wallet without that fine young man.
And some hearts break like that lady taking that ring off before going into the bar.
just thinking going from homeless in woods to fighting raccoons in a loving home memories to cherish
JESUS CHRIST IS GOD AND SAVED US FROM OUR SINS THAT LEAD TO DEATH
@@ryangoslingofficial25 beerus almighty can
I really wish that more people understood and realized just how many problems can be solved through compassion. It's doesn't have to be to this extent, you don't have to invite a stranger into your home, but just something as simple as an honest conversation with someone can truly, truly go a long way.
Jimmy: "So hired divers come out the next day"
Reporter: "You hired divers?"
Jimmy: "hhhhhYeah Divers"
Narrator: "d i v e r s"
this is the most underrated comment
I still can find the "divers" on comment section 😫
Divers
i heard this comment
Tru
Wish there were more people in this world like him.
That dude is an absolute saint, the wife taking off the ring to go to a bar... not so much lol
Be one of those people then. You can't change others, but you can definitely change yourself. Add yourself to that list, and if everyone did that, we'd have a better world to live in.
What' stopping you?
JESUS CHRIST IS GOD AND SAVED US FROM OUR SINS THAT LEAD TO DEATH
Now what a guy helping that kid out,and getting him of the streets....I hope his life turned out good for him.
Unfortunately his wife is for the streets though i wish them all the best to
Wow the bar owner is an amazing guy. God Bless him 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
god watches as children are abducted and raped, often in his churches. god, had nothing to do with this - and maybe we would have a bit more of this if people stopped pretending an invisible sky daddy monster did this for them and realized we have to do this ourselves
@@markomib i want u to say the same thing to god on judgement day
@@Ihoopt7 cool. you say the same thing to vishnu on judgment day.
i'm about as worried about your judgement day as you are about thor or athena - for whom there is equally no evidence. "eww just wait until you're dead!" is about the worst threat imaginable. and if i see your god, i will absolutely demand to know why he napped through the holocaust, allowed 7 children a minute to die of preventable causes, and muched popcorn while children were being raped. because any human who could stop a child being raped would be deemed evil, and so is your sky daddy if he existed,who you believe could have stopped it, but chose not to in order to honor the free will of a rapist over a child.
@Build a Home For My Knees wow. those words almost make a sentence. good for you! keep learning to read, it's the best way out.
Took the ring off because? ... she didn't want the diamonds to scratch the shot glass? ....... or she felt a little less lonely without it?.....
displaced Okie haha!! For real tho
She cheatin
Deff cheating
displaced Okie
Lol
tbh i take off my rings when i don’t want to lose them and put them in a safe space. (they can fall off when my hands get too cold ect. they are too precious to me, so i d rather put them
away than to lose them)
When I'm sad about life I see these things amen for this man
Good man , good kid. May God continue blessing both of you 🙏
JC #1 yeah except the lady who took the ring off.
Cheating woman lost her ring. Homeless man who found the wallet got called a thief for finding it and took the cash?
tbh he aint no theif like dude said he just needed some help i mean 30 degrees living in the woods thats a rough spot to be in at that point youd feel like you gotta do anything to eat
He technically is a thief? Or he was in that particular situation. Seems like a good kid, though.
@@Snarkulous Yeah i get it he stole but stealing and theiving are diffrent petty theft is stealing taking alot of stuff from a store and trying to slip it is just theifing because he didnt take the wallet dirrectly from someones hand if u thank about it he stole someones lost wallet at the time because he needed it but yeah overall i think he was just in a bad spot and felt like it was neccessary
homeless *KID*
@@camfox2336 Lol not anymore xD maybe at the time
What an amazing man! I know his wife and children are so proud of him! Keep going sir!
This child knows how to appreciate the kindness of others. I hope he continues with his efforts to prosper. This bar owner is such a kind soul. His kindness is the type that will change others for the better.

a woman took her ring off in a bar and hid it in her wallet to look single. thats infidelity
That raccoon footage 2:20 of the mother raccoon attacking him is hilarious! I almost died laughing! 😂🤣😭🤣😂😭 I think what the boy should do next is to try and ask that bar owner to adopt him next. That would be a wonderful story to follow up with next. 😁
Chris Leung he’s almost 18 tho
@@evebreedlove189 It doesn't matter, he can still ask his current foster family to adopt him. 👍😊
Oh please
He is almost of age, will be an adult soon. I feel it would be more productive for him to make amends with his mother (if possible). I wasn't on the best terms with mine right before she passed. I miss her every day.
@@evebreedlove189 18 is grown but in all reality you still a kid. 21 is different.
Wow. 17. He’s just a child. Thank you for taking him in.
Yea, he's an angel. The world would be peace if we have full of people like him.
Wow! This is something! This is how a ripple effect works. No telling where that kid will, now, be 10 years from now!
What kind of a mother disowns their child at 17 what a role model she set this own thing in motion
He had been homeless before that dude, estranged for awhile.
That man just taught that boy real morals! Way to go ma man, way to go!
What a beautiful way God works things out..this man & his wife a loving couple
.God bless!
Her wedding ring was in her wallet let me think about that for a second....hmmmm shady things going on with her in that bar!!
She could've not wanted it to get stolen?
Celeste Marie or she didn’t want it to get greasy or anything like that from the food
Human beings! We have not lost it all yet! This man is a human being! Really!
Why would she take off her wedding ring in a bar...... sounds like a shady woman in my opinion.
People take expensive rings, watches, whatever off so they don't get stolen. It's not rare and it is smart.
Thank you for helping this young man.
That's fukin awesome. I can see dudes heart though his eyes
This man has a place in heaven !
give this man a raise

"I'd do anything for him *nods*"
HHNNNNNGGGGG...!!!
Bless this kid's heart, bless the gentleman and his family for taking him in.
Beautiful story.
Hey its a win win for the husband of the woman who lost her ring and the kid who threw the ring.
Jimmy makes me believe 🙌🏾 that angels walk amongst us 💞
Amazing, beautiful story
Okay, i've been binge watching these emotional and inspiring videos for 2 ana a half hours now, and yes I am crying. This video is on my top tier. What a man.
People like this make the human race amazing. God bless him 🙏🙏🙏🙏
That's a real hero..
A man with a big heart 💔!! God bless you man!
Great story this man is one of the nicest guys you could ever meet! The ring was a tool God used to bring this teen into this mans life! Wish you both the best.
I love this story - that man is an absolute LEGEND.
"compassion within" wins my next vote.
Wow! Thanks you,for your Loving Heart an right Action,man!God Bless you!
What a guy
He didn't steal the damn wallet. She left it on a bench.
Ikr lol It’s the same thing as leaving 100 dollars sitting on the streets of New York ofc someone’s gonna take it lmao
@Dylan Dessasore
. Finding becomes stealing when the finder starts spending the cash and/or gift cards if there is identification to return it to the owner or turn it in to law enforcement. I lost my wallet a few months ago and I know that the money was spent. Fortunately the thief didn't use my credit or debit cards.
It's definitely theft. The owner of the wallet and the money inside is easily identifiable by the ID inside the wallet and likely the credit cards as well. If you don't think it's wrong to take money out of a wallet you found on the street, you are morally devoid.
@@TheUnsungOne so im gonna go waste my time to find the owner of the wallet when im homeless and haven't eaten in 2 days.
It might or might not be a theft. You see, this depends on local legislature. In my country even taking things out of dumpster is legally a theft...
Good Man, Good Kid, Bad Wife.
no it was a bad kid. That was kinda the point of the story. Why is the wife bad and the kid good? It's not illegal to cheat. But i is illegal to take something that isn't yours.
this kid has learned the best lesson there is out there!!!
Yea, yea...good guy helps that young man...nice..
But.....
She took her ring off before entering a bar
What a nice man , God Bless you Sir
Wow 😯
We need more guys like this hero!
damn, we all know someone growing that left home because they didn't get along with his parents. "30 degrees outside". man that got me choked up for some odd reason.
God Bless this man!
What an awesome gesture! I would adopt the boy too! You can tell he has a good heart.
I was holding my tears and breath until he said he'd do anything for him, I lost it
Heart touching Beautiful story 😭. Thank you for your Love n Act of Kindness. Update Please 🙏💞 😇
She shouldn't have been trying to look single
Thank you Sir for showing Love and caring for the less fortunate God Bless you in a special way.
It would be nice if corporations and governments had as much compassion for humanity as this man. That would surely bring down a lot of distress and suffering that many people experience.
His wife is Lucky to have this beautiful heart guy bless them both.
I love seeing these happy stories!!
Geeze, considering how heartwarming that story was I wasn't expecting the comment section full of cranky asshats judging a woman for daring to take off her wedding ring.
It's not that she took it off, it's that she took it off at a Bar! The only reason she would do that is to get guys to talk to her! If she had the ring on, then nobody would try flirting with her at all. You're missing the point!
sitting here in Berlin and am AMAZED how wonderful some people are. Thank you!
Good man.
She lost her ring again. If you know her or her husband can you please let them know she left it on my nightstand?
What a wonderful man!
HE DIDN'T STEEL THE PURS HE FOUND IT A SHAME THEY CALL HIM A THEIF GOD BLESS HIM🙏🙏
God Bless You, Sir 🙏💗‼️❤️❤️💗💗‼️🙏💗‼️
Hmmm takes off wedding ring before entering a bar, yea definitely a solid stand up person looks like. Absolutely a ring that needs to be found, so irreplaceable and treasured she took it off to present herself as not married but as single before entering a bar. Solid dude the owner is, cant say the same for the single ready to mingle "wife" that started this story.
So she took her wedding ring off and goes to the bar?.. hmm.. I need a drink for this issue -___-
@im batman 😂😂😂
Real man right there so humble
This truly brought a tear to my eye. May God bless all 3 of these people with great health and wealth. Amen.
This is an incredible man
“Shady character “? Why is he shady because he FOUND a lost wallet
And stole the money. They foreshadowed it
cuz he is slim ^^
@@dgbullioncoins4597 I think you would of took it also if you was homeless and trying to survive.
A good citizen that finds a lost wallet gets it back to its owner intact. Someone down on their luck might turn it in or leave it behind, but with the cash missing. A shady character takes the cash and tosses the wallet into the bay. I think the money is actually the least valuable thing in my wallet and if I ever lose my wallet I would gladly forgive the cash being gone to recover license, credit cards, etc.
@@maverick4220 That wasn't really the point. 🤭
"when that wallet got stollen by a homeless kid " 😂😂🤣🤣 had me rolling
Thank you Jimmy….from the bottom of my heart
It’s so good to see what God can do to our hearts. God bless this man and his new member of his family, I hope they’re doing well
