You Have To Watch This

An Australian man saved his baby son from certain death when a car crashed into them. An 82 year old woman had been driving her car when she suffered a heart attack, ran through a red light and came crashing towards the man and his son. The man suffered a broken leg and his son suffered no injuries at all.

  1. You always read about parents who say they would throw themselves in front of cars to save their children...here is one who really does. Good Job Dad!

  4. Whether you believe or not, God MUST have been watching over that man and his child.

  7. I'm not a big fan of political cross-talk on this blog, and I wish we could do the same with religion in the comments (with the exception, perhaps, of mocking Scientology).
    Obviously - if we DON'T believe, we don't believe God was watching over that child. See?

  8. and yet, where i live, parents push the stroller out into traffic ahead of themselves to get cars to stop.

    this was amazing.

  10. RQ-I just don't like the religion talk either, because it seems like every time there is something about Mel or anyone else that is "known" to be religious everyone starts saying nasty shit. Really? Put any other group in that sentence and everyone would have their panties in a wad (not that I wouldn't, it's just that I don't even have to be offended because someone is always their to correct the offender with the quickness). I love my religion and religion is a personal thing, so for someone to think that it is not offensive you are wrong. Yesterday I was on the verge of never coming back here because it feels like a personal attack. Its all good to have liberal religious views, but not cool to mock those that don't.

  11. It happens so fast, I can't really tell what's going on. Did he yank that kid out of the stroller?

  12. I hear ya, chihuahuaense. Some topics just get people's backs up and it's no secret which ones they are. Can we agree to keep mocking Scientology, though?
    Re: yesterday - although Mel is from quite an extreme form of Catholicism, I agree there are many other reasons/ways to make fun of him without bringing his religion into it.
    As a non-religious person, I get equally offended when someone brings "god" into anything.

  14. I'm with you 100% Rocket.

    Amazing video. I've watched it a whole bunch of times, and I believe that there was a third person who DID get hit. What happened to her/him? It looks like there was someone by the stroller that got nailed. You can see the legs flying through the air. Sad.

    Good for the baby though.

  15. That accident actually happened in 2008 but the video was just released. The grandparents of the baby - parents of Dad - were very seriously injured in the accident. Dad was actually holding the baby as the car hit. If he had been in the stroller .. yikes. Dead baby.

    I stand guilty of some political chatter. I will try to refrain from now on. I come here to escape that actually .. sorry if I allowed it to bleed over here. As a godless heathen .. I also apologize if I bring my non-beliefed-ness here .. but I just don't think there is some bearded dude in the sky who gives a rats ass about us. Sorry .. wish I did .. I bet I would feel a hell of a lot better about life. But I just can't seem to lie to myself. But I will keep that out of here too .. except for Mel's Wacky Catholic Mystery Tour [I claim the recovering Irish Catholic exemption there] and I don't see Scientology as anything other than a dangerous cult .. so I won't stop talking about that either.

    ; )
