My brother did yesterday.
A girl hit a pole on the highway and got out of her car. Walked a few feet and dropped. My bother stayed with her as he called 911. Funny thing was he had to get off the highway to turn around to do so. no one else stopped. He was a hero for the day, at least. His g/f really pump up the story.
(Short version)
Here is your chance to extend that few minutes of fame or good deed you did. Maybe you are thankful for that one person who made it much easier for you. |

When I was 1, I jumped in the pool at our house and tried to swim. I just sank like a rock 
My sister, 15 at the time, jumped in and took me out. She had just gotten her hair done. Probably dukey braids or something. She was pissed

This one time I was driving, and a woman had crashed her car, and even though there were first responders on scene, they didn't do anything, so I pulled her out of the car. Turns out she had a broken leg, and she wound up suing me, saying I did it.
The second time, I was walking down the street, and a tree branch almost fell on a little girl, but I used my body as a shield, broke my back in 3 places, and was in the hospital in a coma for 3 weeks. I kept posting on TB though.

|  | That's the way uh huh uh huh I like it.. | | Join Date: Sep 2006 Location: Robbinsville, NJ | | | Twice, but it really wasn't some sort of heroic "pulling someone out of a burning car" sort of thing, it was more so someone suffering from depression and suicidal thoughts etc. Two different people, almost identical situations, talking them down from doing something ugly... I would have made a great psychologist. Not a happy memory though ugh

A friend of mine was on a really bad downward slide and started doing a lot of drugs and just was bad. I managed to talk him out of ODing on purpose a few times on heroin. Last I saw him he's doing a lot better, with a real job.
It's a ****** situation, and I hope that I never have to do it again.

No, but I've witnessed (from the ground) plane crashes on 3 occasions, and one of those was fatal.

|  | Registered User | | | | | Once while living in the city of Bath, it's an old school city with risen stepped up pavements about 2 foot from road level. On the way to work, I noticed a lady pushing a pram up on the pavement while adjusting her coat, it was a blustery day. She then stopped, turned around and faced away from the pram out of the bluster to fasten her coat up. I noticed as she did this, the pram started rolling to the edge of the steps leading down to the road, she didn't apply a brake, and didn't see anything looking in the opposite direction out of the wind. I could see she was not going to turn round in time so I got on my toes and bolted across the road in front of a car, up the steps and got a hand to the pram before it rolling over the edge and into the road. The lady looked around totally unaware of what had happened there, and I still think to this day she had no idea of how lucky that was. Right time, right place, if you believe in fate I suppose. Other than this incident, not really, the incident above all happened within 5 seconds, v.quick.

If you had gone to a lawyer while you were in that coma--walking uphill both ways, of course--but he had told you that you were out of luck because the owner of the property didn't want to be blamed? |

Reminds me of the time I was in a standoff on the stairway leading to a train station. It was me vs. some unsavory characters, I tell you what. There was a lady with her baby in a stroller on the stairs. It was a looooong staircase. Needless to say, the lady lost control of the stroller and it was going down, right in the middle of our gunfight! Anyway long story short, I went to the ground, caught the stroller with my foot before the baby could fall out, and got the bad guy with a single shot. It was friggin crazy, bro
