I’d like to think I would be this guy, leaping into Siberian waters to save a stranded dog. But realistically I … no, you know what? Fuck it, I’m not doing this charade where I pretend I wouldn’t do this in order to be humble. I WOULD TOTALLY DO THIS. I care way more about dogs than about not getting hypothermia. But I still think this guy is a hero, and this video is utterly heartwarming.
Although it’s a little weird that they let the dog just trot away at the end. At least he’s got a retinue, but what if he jumps back on the ice again? Because really, we’re talking about a dog here. What are the chances he learned anything the first time?
