I was hiking in the comeragh mts. on a wet day, we came to a steep area and we decided to make our ways around it..

we were pretty high after a while and there was a long way down the the valley with lots of rock out croppings, john was ten - twenty feet above me when he slipped and started to slide down the wet grass towards the bottom, quick thinking got me slide down to nearby rocks and catch him by the jumper in an attempt to hold him...it worked.....

god only knows what could have happened if i didnt catch him

wild_eyed · 17-12-2003 05:43PM

I also give blood suppose in a wat id like to think im saving a life , well hopefully I am

DriftingRain · 17-12-2003 11:20PM

I have given blood numerous times, and I donate time/money every year to feed the hungry and assist the "Help a Family" program our hospital does every year at Christmas.

Out of every one of my checks I have transferred money to help an orginazition locally known as RoseHaven. It is a program that helps Abused mothers and childern.

As far, as anything physical like knocking a robber out with my 40 pound pocketbook....UmmmNo...Sorry Never done anything like that!

You truly are a Saint then - compassionate to those around you, taking a burden into you own hands. May I buy you a pint?

I'd give blood but I'm not allowed but the fact that I *would* give blood counts just as much and therefore I'm as good as the rest of you.

whosurpaddy · 18-12-2003 11:58AM

was walking to the bus the other morning, guy in front of me dropped his roll. i picked it up and returned it to him.. ... take that evildoers

Raz · 18-12-2003 12:34PM

A woman walking in front of me dropped her wallet. She was very grateful when I gave it back.

Seriously though, I saw a girl up the road getting her bag nicked and I didn't do anything. I could have given her my phone to call the police, I could have chased after the guy (I'm a martial artist and I should be able to handle a situation like that), I could have done any number of things to help but I couldn't think of anything at the time so I ended up walking on. I feel very bad about doing that, I'm ashamed of myself, so I have since resolved to do what I can if I ever come across a situation like that again.

Havelock · 18-12-2003 01:29PM

I'm not allowed give blood for a year (well now have only 6 months left), but give regularly otherwise.

Would never want credit for I do in an emergency situation, its just what you do that counts. Not the glory. I am always embaressed everytime I have exiting news because I think I'm gloating when I tell people.

Kold · 18-12-2003 03:34PM

Girl with big schoolbag tripped whilst running cross the road, i managed to run n pull her outta traffic.

Stark · 18-12-2003 04:03PM

And of course the superhero always manages to make love to the girl in the end

Carbiens · 18-12-2003 04:11PM

one night these 4 idiots tried to break into our bar, their idiots coz even though it was 4:30 in the morning, every light was on and we were all up, (twas my aunts 40th)

anywhoo i grabbed my poking stick (a 3 1/2'' rounded piece of ash:D ) and gave chase, i caught up with one and smaked him right on the back-side of his right knee, i heard a crack and he fell like a sack o spuds. screaming like a baby

then i sat on him for 15 mins while the cops arrived. the rest were caught too, and we all lived happily ever after.

1985-Childhood friend and his brother left their bikes in the middle of the green while they had their tea. Saw 2 85' era skangers eyeing up the bikes. Went to stop them nicking the bikes and got a dig for my troubles. No thank you from the friend or his parents for trying to prevent the bikes being stolen.

1986- Same childhood friend and I are 30ft up a tree. (Tree climbing, those were the days, you don't see kids climbing trees anymore.........) Branch gives way under friends feet and he is left hanging 30ft off the ground by his fingertips. He is screaming his lungs out but I remained calm and grabbed hold of his arm. I was only a wee lad and didn't have the strength to pull him up but persuaded him to swing his legs up around the branch. Anyway to cut a long story short, I probably saved his life........No thank you from the friend or his parents. Should have dropped the ungrateful effer!!

:D

1994-I happened to be in the family shop after a game of ten pin bowling when two scumbags burst in, one brandishing a gun (turned out to be an imitation, but a real good one like you would buy on the internet rather than a pink plastic jobby from Toys 'R' Us

). Dad swung a big heavy stick 'that just happened to be behind the counter' and I....................Swing my 14LB bowling ball/bag by the strap and hit the guy with the gun between the shoulder blades nearly knocking him over the counter. He dropped the gun and he and his mate ran out. I like to think I was brave rather then stupid!

:D

DriftingRain · 19-12-2003 01:33AM

I like to think I was brave rather then stupid!

I'd like to think it was a great deal of both at the same time...Esp. since you didn't known at the time it was a fake gun!

Tivoli · 19-12-2003 02:02AM

when my neighbours house was raided, i let her sleep in my bed,and used it as an excuse to be 3 hrs late for school the next morning

Space Coyote · 19-12-2003 02:11AM

I once helped put out a fire in a field of barley, that nearly went out of control. I also helped start the fire. :eek:

She just ran off all embarassed. I think I lose brownie points for laughing about the comical manner in which she fell afterwards...

Why do you have STI's or something??

I eh got robbed once and shouted abuse at the thieves as they ran off! I showed them....

ixoy · 20-12-2003 03:17AM

Well I'm brave in that I go to work each day, faced with the crushing knowledge of the eventual heat death of the universe, and then - after that - the energy death when all live and every particle in existence becomes absolutely nothing.

Faust · 20-12-2003 03:18AM

You don't have to be gay to have STI's
