More stories of personal heroism in China. This is part twelve.
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!

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 – Police take down a dangerous man.
This is the kind of things that policemen are trained for. But, I’ll tell you what, if no police are around, it will be up to you to step in and save the woman. Would you be up for it?
Video 2 – Man hanging off the side of a bridge.
So here is a man that is hanging off the side of a very, very tall highway bridge. Why is he there? What is going on? He’s got to be either crazy or in distress. What are you going to do?
Video 3 – Capture a purse thief.
Purse thief’s and purse snatchers used to be very common in China. Today, with all the video surveillance, it has pretty much eradicated the crime. But, not completely. These criminals know where all the blind spots are. They have mapped them out, don’t you know.
However, outside of the blind sots you can sometimes observe people chasing after them on foot. As in this video.
Video 4 – Lost little boy.
Here’s a young boy. He’s lost. Terribly lost and he needs help. Lucky for him that there is a police man nearby and he know that when he is in trouble to turn to the police for help. And thus…
Video 5 – Passed out from exhaustion.
The work of a fireman is very difficult. They take every ounce of energy that they have to just keep going. Then, when they are back at the station, they can relax and release…
Video 6 – Produce driver lends a helping hand.
Heroes come in all forms. Even if all you are doing is transporting sugarcane to the processing factory, or shrubbery to a new housing development, you can lend a hand. Such as this fellow does…
Video 7 – Kitten training to be a good mouser.
In functional societies every one does their part. In traditional conservative societies, like communist China, everyone has a role.
Here, we have a young kitten learning to be a good mouser. This what I call “on the job training”…
To understand the concept of family roles within society, the link above, and this one below (they open up in a separate tab) would be able to help a lot…
Video 8 – Don’t jump, girl!
Saving others. It’s the way of the Rufus.
Video 9 – Help the ambulance get on its way.
This is common in the USA where it is the law!
It isn’t elsewhere in the world. In China there aren’t laws all over the place telling you what you can or cannot do; what you should do or should not do.
To learn more (opens up in a separate tab)…
Anyways, in China, all citizens are expected to do their part to make society better.
Be the Rufus. Not because you are obligated though the force of law, but because that is who you are. Be the Rufus.
Video 10 – Fire alarm!
Whether you are in the USA, Australia, Canada, Russia or China the situation is the same. When your name is called, you leap into action!
Thank you for reading this.
God bless.
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)
