How many of our militarized cops would do what this man did?
Sadly very few; they are trained to AVOID personal risk.
A few years back a ditch caved in on a worker.
Firemen arrive... the chief orders them back!
There is a man fully visible in the ditch.
The chief says they need a trench box to enter the ditch!
Whilst they waited someone jumped down in the hole to assist the injured. He could not detect a pulse and left.
The firemen waited.
About FIVE HOURS later the trench box arrived; an hour more and it was set in position.
He was dead.
The chief said it was too dangerous to go in the ditch.
