Your Heroic Moments

dave 27

i'll probably get a lot of stick for this but i recently found a wallet in college that had nearly 300 euro in it, student id, bank cards, you name it..EVERYTHING! a couple of the lads were saying just take the money but i said it was too lousey so i handed the wallet into the reception and she got the wallet..i didnt even wait for her to come down, just left and didnt think twice about it so...

what did u do lately that made someone happy?

Like a predictable human being, you wanted to squeze any drop of self-gratification you could out of doing good deed, so you told people online. Hoping for a pat on the back. How selfish. You should have just kept the money.

An honest person would have shat in the wallet so that they couldn't feel the sin of pride, such is the true path to heaven.

Let me set the scene for you. It's a 7-10 split (the hardest shot in bowling). It was all up to me -- -- so I got up all my courage. Right away, my lips started to move, and I came up with the chant that won the match!

Perhaps the title of the thread should have been "My heroic moments..." as you clearly are more interested in talking about yourself.

Obviously people are encouraged to contribute to their own threads but its fairly obvious what this thread was created for.

If that's heroic, you must be an awful jerk normally

thats cool dude. dont mind these nerds

What you did op was the right thing but it was hardly heroic. I'd bet, though, that your first reaction was to keep it and you probably had to struggle with your conscience to do the right thing. Am I right?

Jesus everyone is bashing the OP, its a forum rule that he has to contribute his own input, thats all he did

Jimmy Bottlehead

Saved my dad's life - he was drowning on holidays when I was about 15, so I got him to poolside.

To this day I question that decision :P

ya heroic is a wrong use of words, heroic in the sence of the person thats on the recieving end i suppose, i dunno really i was more in shock finding a wallet with all that was inside it, she even had her drivers liscence in it!

but as i mentioned post stuff you did that helped other people, i remember seeing a post not so long ago about some guy that bought an abrakebabra for all the homeless people so it got me thinking on doing this thread

gonnaplayrugby

that is heroic man. you could have easily taken it but you were a good person and little things like that make people view the world more positively. you dont have to be like peter parker to be heroic.

When I was 7, I ran into my burning house and saved my little sister. I got slightly burned doing so.

Beat that!

Nerds! How Dare You! Bloody Rugby Playing Jocks!

Yeah so anyway I stood up to this guy that was badmouthing people on boards and calling them ''nerds'', that was my most heroic day.

Saved a dog from drowning. Old woman came up to me, 'My dog, my dog is old and can't swim' jumped in, grabbed the collar and pullled 'Toby' out.

In McDonalds at Christmas time eating a burger with a friend. We were sitting at the window and accross the carpark there was what looked like a bum messing around with the bin.
He was putting stuff into it and clearin out a bag he had. Anyway it was taking him ages as he was changin his mind what to bin and dropping ****. We were laughin at him I'm ashamed to say. Anyway right before we finished our food, he finished up and walked off but as he did something dropped out of his pocket. We said we'd walk over to see what it was. Gettin closer I realised it was money. A bundle of 50's in fact. I didn't count it but the guts of 300 anyway.
Your man was gone about a minute up the busy street so I legged it after him and spotted him. Said " Sorry sir, you dropped this back at McDonalds", and handed it to him. Poor guy was not with it I'd say but shoved it in his pocket thanked me and walked off. Was relly proud of myself after that. If I hadn't been looking out the window (and lauging at him I'll admit), he'd never have got it back. Some cnut would have pocketed it. Considerin it was probably all he had for Xmas made it even sweeter.

I once ate a whole packet of Toxic Waste all at once :rolleyes:
My poor teeth!

According to Wikipedia,
"It is warned on the packet that the consumer should not put more than one in the mouth at once as it may cause damage to the consumer's taste buds"
Thanks

Theres a trend these days when people return sums of money that have been lost. Which is that the grateful person who lost it in the first place rarely rewards honesty by giving them afew quid.
In our local town, a woman managed to lose her handbag in which she happened to have 800 euro in the purse. The person that found it got the owners name and address from a note in the bag and returned it in person. She didnt even offer her 20 lousy quid for being so honest. I think if i lost the bones of a grand, I would give the person that returned it to me a cash reward.

The receptionist is probably 300 euro richer now.

I wouldn't call it 'heroic' my any means but I did help a blind guy get money from an atm, which I admit was kinda weird. And no I didnt steal any money from him

Neighbors kids were home alone during a storm that spawned a tornado. I seen them out at the garden so i ran across the street and got them up into the bath tub and covered us with a matress. The whole house was destroyed. Got a write up in the local paper because they wreckon they would have been killed if they just hid downstairs. Mother had only gone to the store for 10 minutes and got stuck due to how quick the weather changed.

Somebody once held out for me 'til the end of the night.

I go kayaking so have done a few heroic things involved in that.I dropped my phone on the bus and some girl called me and we met up and she gave it back to me.I gave her 20 quid because I was just so grateful.A taxi driver came to my home a few days after I had dropped my phone in the taxi.
