Fresno, California (CNN) – It is sheer panic in the woman’s voice on the cell phone video as the flames shot out of the windows of the wood frame home: “There’s a man in there!”
The next sound on the video is a loud explosion, likely the propane tank of a barbeque grill.
“We gotta get the dad,” screams the woman.
The explosion forced two men who were trying to reach the trapped man away from the home. Seconds later, a man in a blue Los Angeles Dodgers cap jogs out with a 73-year-old man slung over his shoulder.
The article really says it all.
Wow. The world needs more men like him. Thank you for sharing that.
Hero, heroism, heroic, those are words that are tossed about too lightly these days. Not this time though. That was a demonstration of the nobility of spirit.
