What have you done in your life that could be considered heroic? I save an entire bird's next full of baby birds once. It had fallen from the tree and the mother was dead, so I put them all in my backpack found a bird sanctuary to take them too. They cared for them and most of the made it actually.

You?

I once read tarot cards for someone that I knew. In the reading there was information about his family and a business deal that was about to go bad. In the reading he was stoic and it didn't look like the reading went anywhere. The next week he came to me and said the reading was dead on, that his cousin was as discussed was the bad person trying to involve him in an underhanded business deal. And that i had saved him enoromous amounts of money on account of this reading. That if i needed anything, to give him a call. And would give me free food when i came to his restaruant. I'm not saying that, that is heroic but in this case the person was helped out enormously; by unseen powers.

I was driving home one night about 6 yrs ago, it was 2 am and the roads were deserted (small town). I saw a car crashed into a pole and stopped when I realized someone was still in it. I flagged other drivers down and we got the guy out of the car and got an ambulance. By the time I got hoe it was 4am but I felt good. wink

Last friday i was travelling home from the hostel, by train, with my sister and grandmother and some friends as company. There were no seats to sit so we stood next to the door, when it banged and opend up... It was black dark and the train was going very fast... I managed to lock the door back.
My poor grandma, she was still shaking hours after...
Years ago, this has already happend, that time it was my mum who locked the door. Thanks to that i knew it can be done Smile

I saved kids from drowning twice. I also worked as a daycare/preschool teacher 2-4 year olds, which I loved by the way.

Five years ago, I was home from work early. I had a headache, so went to lie down. I was awoken by screaming and loud pounding on my front door. It was my neighbor, and he was yelling about his son not breathing.

I ran into his apartment, and found his 6yo son, Josh, having a seizure on the floor. He wasn't breathing and his lips were already turning blue. I did rescue breathing until he gasped, then put him into the rescue position.

My heart was pounding! But, he was just fine.

That is my moment of heroism!

My brother fell over and knocked himself unconscious. Called for an Ambulance and made regular
checks on him. He started fitting and i had to stop him from rolloing on to the road.
Was a really Scary moment for me.

Have a few other things but none tht can really mention.

Oh, I finally thought of one.

My best frined and I were on a vacation. Some guy grabbed her (later found out he was just trying to scare us because we were on a ghost tour) and well, lets just say it ended with him being unconscious. So maybe not as noble as some of you guys, but I'll fight to the death for someone I care about.

I was at work last year and one of the women I work with went into seizures, as my ex-wife frequently had them I already knew what to do till parmedics came. My boss was freaking out and everyone was staring at me while I did my thing.

Also I was in a van when my mom was driving and I was in the back seat with a friend of the family when we were hit by a car doing around 95 through a red light. Sent the van into a wild spin and the friend I was sitting with wasn't wearing her seatbelt. I caught her when she went towards the window and the paramedics said had I not caught her she might've died. She ended up with thirteen stitches across her neck another half inch over would've severed her jugular. I also was the only person to not need medical attention, from either car. My mom was glad but mad at me at the same time.
