In A World Full Of Heroes Be A Nurse Shirt
I was at a friends house, my friends dad yelled down from upstairs “someone was struck and killed by lightning at Venice Beach today”
I got cold, looked at my friend and said, “damn, that could have been any one of us.” Get home and later find out that one of my friends was out in Venice when a lightning storm hit, striking the water. He wasn’t even in the water until he ran in to grab the people that had been struck and incapacitated. He ran in to save them In A World Full Of Heroes Be A Nurse Shirt and when he did he got struck and died instantly.
Broke my fucking heart but that was the kind of person Nicholas Fagnano was, selfless and perfectly kind
Edit: It’s possible I created the scenario in my head. The LA Times article about my friend states that he just went into the water to rinse off and was the only person to be struck. I emphatically remember being told he went in there to grab someone, but I think it may have been too hard for me to deal with and I had to create a scenario where he chose to give his life for someone else to make it easier on myself. I apologize for possibly misleading you guys, I had no idea, I must have told myself the story for so long it became my reality. There was a picture of a 16-17(?) year old girl floating around very briefly years back. It was just an innocent picture of some teen posing for a photo.
Look deeper into it and it turns out the girl was from a rich family and had a drug problem. She got into an argument with her dad, stormed out and stole his car, did a bunch of coke, then crashed into a bridge going hella fast. She was killed instantly.
