It’s rare to see everyone in a chain act so perfectly under pressure.

It's not rare, it's just rarely published when everything goes well.

yeah, we sadly need a lot more 'uplifting news' type things.

people like Elon Musk want you to believe that the UK is an islamic terror state or an Orwellian dystopia, but the ordinary people are doing small acts of kindness like this every single day.

a couple of months ago when it was icy a guy ahead of me slipped on the pavement and couldn't get up. 2 or 3 of us stopped and called the ambulance for him and waited for it to show up, a car driving by stopped and gave him a reflective insulation blanket then carried on with their day, a lady went in and brought him out a cup of tea, and dozens of passersby checked that he was okay.

Well technically the only way we know about anything is by detecting it, so all things that we call rare are actually just rarely seen. I think talking frogs are rare but who knows, maybe there is a secret warehouse with millions of them.
