Sad.

The children will forever be grateful to their mother!

Rest In Peace superwoman!!!

SonOfALion:
Phillip Blanks, a former college football player and ex-Marine, made the greatest catch of his life when he saved a child thrown from a burning building over the weekend.

[img]https://images./4e7E2cIfZxyVjuCfbo4ZRw.gif[/img]

A shocking video showed the moment Blanks caught a three-year-old boy thrown from the balcony of a burning apartment complex in Phoenix, Arizona, on July 3, right before he hit the ground, KABC reported.

"Instinct. There wasn't much thinking. I just reacted. I just did it," he told the station.

The 28-year-old said he was always raised with the mindset to serve others.

Blanks served in the U.S.
Marines and currently has a job in the security industry.

Philip Blanks

He also credits his time playing football as a wide receiver for Saddleback College in Mission Viejo as key to his personal growth.

"I know how to catch," he says. "I've learned how to catch a football. So I'll give some credit to football."

On the day of the fire he heard a lot of commotion outside of his building.

Then Blanks heard someone yell there was a fire, so he grabbed a few things and ran outside barefoot to check it out.

"He was twirling in the air like a propeller," Blanks said. "I just did my best. His head landed perfectly on my elbow. His ankle got twisted up as I was diving.
The guy who was there with me – it looked like he wasn't going to catch him.
So that's why I stepped in.
I just wanted to make a better catch."

While the child's life was saved, his 30-year-old mother died in the fire. Her final act was to fling her son to safety while she was already engulfed in flames.

"She's the real hero of the story." Blanks said.

"Because she made the ultimate sacrifice to save her children."

The boy's father was at work when the blaze broke out. Investigators are still investigating the cause of the fire.

If he resists the urge to shalaye about his catching skills, maybe some good things will come his way

The african in france who climbed up 3 stories to save a dangling baby didn't say he was a palmwine tapper or a monkey

acknowledge the deed and receive the thanks with humility

bottom line; always resist the urge to shalaye

I saw the news on NBC and I was wowed. The guy did a good catch there.
Nothing can ever be compared to the love and sacrifices of mothers.

Everyone in that incident is a hero.

if it were the father are u saying he wouldn't have done anything possible to save the CHILD? ABI BECAUSE FATHERS DON'T TELL YOU HOW THEY TREKKED TO THE MARKET INSTEAD OF CAB JUST TO MAKE SURE MONEY WAS ENOUGH FOR FOOD U THINK THEY DON'T MAKE SACRIFICES. YEYE FEMINIST

NONSENSE.

U THINK SAY NA EVERY THING NEED OVERHYPED LOVE OF A MOTHER QUOTE? AS IF FATHERS HATE THEIR CHILDREN.

any good person would have done same regardless of the relationship with the child. cut the women this women that crap.
NA HERE WE DEY MOTHERS DEY BEWITCH THEIR CHILDREN

I have watched the video several times. I can't understand why the woman didn't jump down after throwing the child. What did she go back inside to do? Was there another child inside? Who can explain please

Modified:

Just went to Google to dig further, the mother actually went back in to save her 8 year old daugher, but never came out. It is clear now.. https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/2020/07/09/child-dropped-balcony-fire-football-player-burning-building/

From his tone, he wasn't bragging. He was even modest. What he said were probably extracted from an interview he did with a journalist or the press. No big deal here
