    I'm thinking a good number of us are pleased [a reward] just experiencing this by video. The operator felt reward at instant they took action.

    Should have made sure it was dead. just like any caught animal when you think they are dead put another round in them before approaching
    Never try to tell me it can't be done

    very stirring with warm feeling inside even knowing (by the title) the outcome. Abit like watching a heartwarming movie when some one told you the finish.

    Seems like he figured it out, just backed in and sat down. That big noisy palm signaled "My Ride's Here"
