Heroes

Sometimes I wonder if the world has gone mad, then you watch a video like this and it gives you hope for humanity & faith that there are still selfless people who put others above themselves.

I watched this a couple of times and not ashamed to say a few brought a lump to my throat.

Yes, and it's all too easy to sometimes forget that.
Thanks for posting.   :)

Yes, it's good to be reminded that there are some good people in the world.

There is a video embedded in Kitz' opening post to this thread. Do you not see it?  :-\

I don't think the video plays properly on an iPad - at least it doesn't on mine. All I get is music & a blank (black) screen.  :(

I've attached a screen-scrape of Kitz' opening post.

I don't think the ipads like certain file formats.

Kitz, don't even have any sign of a link though, it's not that I fetch the file and then can't handle it, if you see what I mean.

I'm not sure what to suggest I'm afraid.    :(

I've tried googling and it appears that some Facebook and YouTube Vids cause a problem for some iphone and ipad users.
There's pages and pages of people intermittently seeing this problem when viewing via iphone/ipad.


Is it viewable from the direct link which I think may try to open in a Facebook app

Maybe misunderstanding, but why do I not see a link which I can't or can successfully open? Make sense? It is as if that is just not there at all? I could get Janet to help me to do a screenshot. ?Maybe a Safari bug?

Reminds me of the ambulance man when I found my dear uncle lying in the floor having had a stroke and I was holding him. And the police officer who came out and helped my sister and uncle when my father had a fatal heart attack on christmas day morning seven days earlier. They both were heroes.

As were the ambulance men who took me to hospital but were kind enough to fill me full of anti-nausea and morphing and also wait around for it to really kick in properly before they took me in the ambulance. More heroes.

Meanwhile people vote for Rump and the government bails out giant banks as a reward for their own folly and greed.

Do you see this

link.

That is to say, a five word sentence with the fifth word a blue, underlined, left-clickable link?
