Alex Skarlatos, one of three Americans hailed as heroes for stopping a terrorist attack on a Paris-bound train in August, would have been at the Oregon college where a gunman killed nine people if Skarlatos hadn't been in Los Angeles to rehearse for ABC's "Dancing With the Stars."
Skarlatos, 22, told the network's "Good Morning America" program that he would have been attending a class at Umpqua Community College in Roseburg, Oregon, when the man opened fire on a writing class Thursday, ABC News reported ( http://abcn.ws/1YUbsvv ) Friday.

Skarlatos and two friends, U.S. Air Force Airman Spencer Stone, 23, and Anthony Sadler, 23, received worldwide acclaim when they tackled the gunman aboard a train while vacationing in Europe. The heroics earned Skarlatos his stint on “Dancing With the Stars.”
The same odds of getting a Fizzbin on your first deal...............
I could been a contendah!
Ah yes, Fizzbin. The card game Captain Kirk was teaching to the inhabitants of the planet who based their society on the Chicago mobs of the prohibition era.
These guys are heroes, all 3 of them. I don’t mean to detract from that.
But, wondering, is this guy really a star to go on Dancing With The Stars??? Or are the scraping the bottom of the barrel at DWTS to find anyone who is a celebrity for any reason, to appear on the show???
I heard that some activists wanted the show to allow same sex couples to dance. Imagine the publicity they would get, if they had the likes of Rosie O’Donnell dancing with a girl partner. That would pump up the ratings, right????
One quadrillion to the trillionth power to one.

Alex Skarlatos, Spencer Stone and Anthony Sadler are a living recruiting poster; better than a battalion of recruiters!
We need and want the best and brightest for the the defence of freedom.
0bama’s damage may linger, but freedom must carry on!
Cannon fodder is never the answer, to prevail we need the best,
Forgot Amy Purdy runner up who is a double amputee. DWTS brings on people who have dealt with adversity -not just stars. Amy had it better than Noah in the sense she was below the knee amputee. Noah did not have a knee bend capability.

Believe me there are producers who are salivating at the thought of bringing Chris Mintz to DWTS
I’ll take “A Piece of that Action”
That was a wonderful dance. I had tears when it was over, and even Len did too. Noah got a well-deserved standing ovation.
Noah showed his incredible strength and balancing ability while missing two limbs when lifting Sharna in this piece. I loved the mirrored intro

At one point she knocked his tooth out in rehearsal.
No such thing as a coincidence. God-incidence, instead.

I too loved the mirrored piece, and you could hear gasps all through the audience when they removed the mirrors. Listening to his background and how far down he got after losing his arm and leg, then to see how far up he went was really inspiring. You could see how the audience’s positive reaction affected him. DWTS will have to go a long way to out-do him and that dance.
