dimity_blue3 Have you ever intervened heroically in any emergency situation with a complete stranger?
Only if you count shouting, "Watch out!" to a lady who was about to be hit by a bus. She jerked back in time.
I think I was braver the time I was at a bus stop and saw a dog lying in the gutter and the poor thing wasn't moving. I had to go over to see if it was still alive. Had to. It wasn't until I saw its face that I realised it was a large soft toy. I swear my knees turned weak with the relief. I picked it up and put it by the wall so no one else would think it had been run down.

Baby was fine, she was being tickled by her Daddy totally oblivious, but people around us began screaming frantically thinking a baby had fallen in. I can only imagine their panic!
