Kudos to French president to not only offer him citizenship but a job too.
-
Try this in the US and you’ll get “thank you for being nice but you gotta go back”
-
The amount of upper body strength it takes to climb like that is insane, the dude is crazy strong.
-
He got a job as a fireman? Hell, he should be TRAINING firemen.
-
"If he is not a Frenchman, we must make him one. Bring me the papers. I, Emmanuel, myself, will sign."
-
"What was your path to Citizenship?" - "I became a National Hero"
-
5 years passed by and still cant forget about this dude.
-
I know this was only two years ago but I remember it so vividly. What a human he is. Absolutely amazing person.
-
Dude climbed up four floors on the outside of a building faster than I can run up four flight of stairs. Unreal
-
When he was in the ground, he was an illegal immigrant but when he climbed the building, he became a French citizen...
-
His kind words, he love kids and he can't see them getting hurt infront of him. When danger comes, strong men like him run towards danger and become hero. Huge respect 🙏
-
God Bless him and his family. He risked his life.
-
When your body reacts to danger on its own to save someone's life, that's what a Hero is.
-
Watching him scaling the building brought me to tears. The way he never looks back and never checks his grips once and keeps gliding while never taking his sight away from the child just makes me think what hardships and difficulties in life does a man like him has to go through to be that fearless and brave. If only everybody could see that in all immigrants and refugees. Well done real Spiderman.
-
You know what i like ? The fact that he received an official "Act of courage and devotement" document. He can show that to his kids so that they would know their father is a hero who saved a life ! great job
-
Just watched this clip again to restore my faith in humanity. So beautiful ❤️
-
How did the kid manage to hold on for so long? He's got strong grip
-
Legend has it that the 3 guys at 1:06 are still trying to climb the ground level fence.
-
Such a wonderful story. It brought tears to my eyes. Tears of joy for the little one and gratitude to the young man who exhibited such courage and selfless fortitude.
-
He was climbing that building faster than doctor octopus
