More stories of personal heroism in China. This is part seven.
Here are some more videos of personal heroism. These videos all take place in China, and show examples of how average, normal, everyday people (or dogs and cats) can make a difference. When the calling strikes and an emergency occurs, will you be the one who turns their back, or will you run and offer help? Will you be the one who stays playing on the cell-phone, or will you lend a helping hand? Will you be the person who will make a difference in the lives of those around you, or are you just going to fade into the background.
Make a difference. Be like Rufus!
Please kindly note that this post has multiple embedded videos. It is important to view them. If they fail to load, all you need to do is to reload your browser.
These are all micro-videos of very short duration. From ten seconds to three minutes. I would suggest that you, the reader, allow them to load to get the full experience.
Video 1 – Baby trapped under an oven.
Here we have a rural area. It’s a poor home, and the mother is hysterical. The toddler has somehow crawled under a lit blazing hot coal-fired stove and is trapped. Unless they can get him out, he will be roasted alive.
Seconds count.
What would you do? Would YOU be the Rufus and help him?
Video 2 – Emergency CPR by a stranger on the street.
It happens. You are minding your own business and suddenly you find yourself trying to help someone that has collapsed right in front of you. What are you going to do? What can you do?
You do everything that you can.
That’s the way of the Rufus.
Video 3 – Stranger gives a ride to the hospital.
There’s a hysterical woman ont he side of the road. She’s waving you down. SO you stop and ask what is going on.
She needs help and an emergency ride to the nearest ER for emergency medical assistance. What would you do? Would you say “no, no”, or would you help her and take her to the hospital?
Video 4 – Food delivery man has a limp. Hospital staff run out to give him free treatment.
Sometimes you don’t need to be in the middle of an emergency event ot be the Rufus. You just help those around you.
Here is a delivery man. This is common in China where everyone has food delivered to them via the many phone APPS in China. IN this case, the food delivery guy has a limp. And he carries the food and delivers the food to a guy (or gal, I don’t know which) in the hospital.
Well, the nurses notice that he has a limp.
So they run out after him, and they take him in and take a look at him. They patch him up. Give him some free care and some free medicine and set him on his way.
Rufus. Men and women doing their part to make the world a better place.
Video 5 – Rescue of a drowning victim.
When someone is in the pond and in distress, what will you do? Would you rescue them on the sport, or would you call the police and wait by silently? It’s you; be the Rufus or not.
Video 6 – Saving a man from getting hit.
Heroes come in all sorts of sizes and packages. Mostly, it’s a matter of reacting without thinking to dangerous situations that occur around us. Be the Rufus and help others.
Video 7 – Fish delivery truck helps put out a fire.
OK, well there is a vehicle on fire. The police need help putting it out, and the fire trucks are stalled in traffic. No worries, though. You have a Rufus driving by with a load of fresh fish.
The hero uses the water that the fish are staying in and being transported in to help ut out the fire. Event though it might result int he lost of his day’s profits.
The Rufus.
Video 8 – Saving a person that is in distress.
When things go wrong you must take action immediately. There just isn’t any time to waste. You must react then and there or not…
Video 9 – Woman trying to kidnap a child.
Evil people are all around us. Often they do not look evil. They just look like an auntie, or a bland stranger. Here, we see an auntie try to steal a young child out from under the noses of her mother in a clothing shop.
Video 10 – Saving a child from a crazy man.
Sometimes you have to get hurt saving people. While all the other people run away, the child is begging for you to help her. She is looking at you, and begging for YOU to save her. What would you do. What would YOU do?
He has a knife and a hammer and he is belligerent as all fuck. What would you do?
Conclusion
We do not know when the calling will come. However, when it calls, you must take action. It will not make you wealthy, rich, famous, or attractive. But, it will make a difference when you are judged upon death.
Be the Rufus.
Make a difference.
Help others. It’s our highest calling.

Here are some other similar posts on this venue. If you enjoyed this post, you might like these posts as well. These posts tend to discuss growing up in America. Often, I like to compare my life in America with the society within communist China. As there are some really stark differences between the two.

I have broken apart some other posts. They can best be classified about ones actions as they contribute to happiness and life. They are a little different, in subtle ways.
![What High School taught me about Diversity. Here we look at idea of "diversity" from the point of view of what it was like in my High School years. For my High School was fully and intentionally diverse. And at that time, there were two techniques of grouping people. These techniques were by [1] merit, and [2] by random association. Or in other words; "diversity". Thus we can compare diversity against merit as the criteria used in a selection process.](https://metallicman.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/1-23-1024x235.gif)
