A woman falls onto the tracks at a train station. A jumper perches precariously on the ledge of a building. The following clips in this video may be upsetting for sensitive viewers. However, they need not serve as gratuitous images, but as a reminder of the love and cooperation of the human will. The clips shown could have ended in serious injury or death, if not for the fearless actions of individuals, many of them strangers, willing to help in the face of danger. Why did these ordinary heroes risk their own lives to save another? Is it instinct to save a life, or choice? As we ponder the actions in this video, it leaves us with a quiet reminder in a world so often fraught with cruelty and indifference: never doubt humanity.
