Don't even have to go to the link. I know you're all talking about the guy who got bit in the thigh and his friend who jumped in to save him. Saw them on the Today Show this morning.

Good thing is was alone since the woman were in floating chairs and had to swim for the boat.

Nasty scar, but at least they saved his leg and he had lost half his blood! He shouldn't be alive, but he is.

A person never knows the lengths they will go to in order to save a loved one. I cannot stand the sight of blood; it usually makes me dizzy. However, the night my step son tried to take his hand off with a really sharp knife, all I saw was a child in need. I didn't realize the extent of the blood til much later when I saw his clothing and promptly threw up.

This guy saw his friend in the water and all that blood and just KNEW he was going to die if he didn't do something. I saw KL stumble out of the bathroom whispering "HELP ME". Human nature is a strange and odd thing.

Heroes are born in a split second. I've interviewed some wonderful ones. They all share the same thoughts, that there was NO time to think about their own lives being in jeopardy, but that someone needed immediate help in order to survive. I'm betting that even if that was a stranger in the water, the friend (and now probably best friend) would have jumped in anyway. Personally, I believe that it is a character traite, deep within one's soul. We hear of too many times when others stand by and do nothing. Drives me crazy seeing actual film of such things happening, and instead of the filmer dropping the phone to assist, record the situation. What we call courage, they call part of life, and usually seriously down play their part.

Me, I have no fluffy happy thoughts regarding aggressive big fish with sharp teeth, and think only a whole lotta love regarding the human bait would have me hurling in as a wedge between the shark and his favorite meal.
