....cant argue.
Holy ! That's incredible.
neither is my backpack...
but still... dude has major nads for jumping on a grenade.
I feel extremely ridiculous about complaining about work today.
He's a Royal Marine, not an American Marine.And when I saw this, I was reminded how lucky we are!!
Still, he's pretty ballsy.
7 seconds, I would have picked up the grenade and thrown it/kicked it in the opposite direction.The Marine had less than seven seconds to make up his mind on whether to risk sacrificing his own life to save his friends when the hand grenade rolled onto the ground during an operation in Afghanistan earlier this year.
Yes I know. He's on our side right?
True hero that one! Now here's someone people should be asking autographs from!
kicking it wouldn't be very smart.
If you say so, I've never dealt with grenades personally.
He's on Great Brittain's side.
Great Brittain's side is our side.

You don't know anything of the sort. And no matter how I vote, I always appreciate these men (troops) for what they have been asked to do.
I am amazed he's still alive.
You've watched too many Stallone flicks.
The fact that he was able to think in that instant to use his gear to shield himself is amazing.
Agreed.
Those guys nads have their own ZIP code.
Man, if I lived in New York, I would want to meet that guy and shake his hand. Unbelievable courage! and for a stranger... I can honestly say I don't think I'd do it. As far as I'm concerned, these two men are bigger than life!

Mr. Autrey said he had been offered cash, trips and scholarships for his two daughters, Syshe, 4, and Shuqui, 6, who watched as he dived to the trackbed.Awesome! I hope this dude ends up being a millionaire! God knows if anybody deserves it, this man is him.By the end of the day, the president of the New York Film Academy, Jerry Sherlock, had personally handed him a $5,000 check
