    You maybe should edit your origonal post, and warn some member who mite NOT want to see this. I can view things like this but many can't....

    As for the vidio, those people are true heros:yup::thumbs2::thumbs2::thumbs2::yup:

    Life is a gift, but I don't know if you would want to survive, or if you even could.

    There is something called shock. People on both sides of accidents like this can be scarred for life.

    This was on the news. The motorcyclist from under the car lived, but only because they got the car off of him. It's things like this that give me hope for humanity.

    He did live. I was hoping he did. Amazing how quickly we work together when there's another human life at stake.

    I heard via the rumor mill he had survived but didn't hear about his condition.... I honestly thought this would be one of those survival storys in witch surviving would be worse than death and I even stated that...very glad I was wrong. 20+ years back a dam good friend was crushed under a car, As we were room mates and he had no family on the island I identified his body.

    Amazing news week for sure.

    What a great story. Folks coming together to help another and he turns out to be just fine. That doesn't always happen.

    Also the little 3yr. old boy from BC that was kidnapped from his bed then returned to he's home unharmed by the kidnapper. The kidnapper was caught also unharmed...it'll be interesting to see how this works out! The little guy should be alright he's so young may not even remember, but he's older siblings sure will. Must be hard for then to close their eyes at night.

    I was so relived to hear of the boys return to his family, but there has to more to the story that isn't making the news, the whole incedent of his abduction and return has everyone one asking "what really is going on?"


    ...Pedofile/Unharmed....Thats the worst part about this story:mad:

    Saw a news update on NBC on the motorcyclist. He's going to be OK. Broken leg, broken pelvis and a few burns primarily. He went on TV to thank all the 'heros' (his words) who saved him.

    I saw that guy getting rescued too. Amazing folks. :thumbs2:

    Tedy/Fannie, it sounds like he's doing the "brick short of a load' DEFENSE. I wonder if Alberta prisons have choirs for sopranos... :evilsmile:

    Your right there is much more to this story and we will likely never know it all. But that man, and I use that term loosely, needs to be in good health so he can get exactly what is coming to him!
