I'd have to agree, that man was put on earth to protect people. He is the stuff that heroes are made of.

The TRUE heroes are those going about their daily lives in the most humble of manners, not seeking the limelight (I'm talking to YOU KraperDick) - like this gentleman, PAT TILLMAN, et al. THIS story needs to be wall-to-wall coverage on MSM but won't even get a MENTION except locally.

Hell of a catch. Definitely deserving of recognition. As an aside, I feel badly for the children's mother passing away. I recently went through an apartment building fire, and had to crawl out past the bulk of the fire to escape. I can't imagine being trapped inside....A terrible, scary way to go. I hope the kids can recover mentally from it.

Yeah, I feel for her and the kids without now. I think I would have hung out and gone for it; break a leg maybe but breathing. Didn't seem off the chain high

It looked like 2-3 stories. An entirely survivable fall if you land feet first. Barring other safer escape routes, that's the next best thing

I agree. Not shitting on her, maybe she was already wasted by smoke, maybe she went back for the dog. RIP

for sure man. Some people just panic and freeze up. People always say its fight or flight. I disagree. In my experiences, its either fight, flight, or freeze.

He very well could be here (on this site, that is) - ? That'd be a great thing. I agree completely with your sentiment, both as a christian and just a patriot - your true colors come out in selfless acts.

Thank God it was him there and not Kaepernick, probably would have dropped the poor kid and then blamed the fire for racism.
