The man who saved 669 lives.

[DannyDeVito]

Old one but worth a view and a cry.


Sir Nicholas Winton who organised the rescue and passage to Britain of about 669 mostly Jewish Czechoslovakian children destined for the Nazi death camps before World War II in an operation known as the Czech Kindertransport. This video is the BBC Programme "That's Life" aired in 1988. The most touching video ever.

Found it fascinating that most of the children he saved were in attendance.

Nice post Danny.

Well, looked to me like there were a couple of dozen. If he saved >600 then that's not "most". :sorry2:

I just saw this somewhere else and thought to search before posting it here. I cried.

You ruined it for Wanker. I do hate when people embarrass and correct those that try but don't read the whole thread. A PM would have been better.
