A true hero! Captain Machchhar was severely wounded in an attack by his co-pilot who attempted to crash the aircraft. As the plane dropped thousands of feet, Machchhar fought back despite his injuries. He managed to open the cockpit door which let the passengers subdue the attacker.

Edit:
- It was not just him alone. Massive credit for those who subdued the attacker and to those who took control and landed the aircraft.

Austin Appelbee was 13. His mother Joanne and two younger siblings were swept out to sea. He tried a kayak first, but it started filling with water, so he abandoned it and swam. Alone. Through choppy water. As daylight faded. Four kilometers. Nearly four hours.

He reached shore, ran another two kilometers barefoot to their accommodation, and used his mother's phone to call for help. A major marine rescue operation launched. Rescuers later found Joanne and the two younger children clinging to paddleboards about 14 kilometers offshore. They had been drifting for nearly 10 hours.

Authorities credited Austin's actions with bringing rescuers to them. A 13-year-old with nothing but willpower and bare feet.

This video was so well done! The editing and everything. I wish I could be a creator as good.

In Auckland, tattoo artist Benjamin Lloyd turned a simple social media post into something much bigger than he imagined. He promised that if his Facebook post reached 50 likes, he would visit Starship Children’s Hospital. It received over 400,000 and he kept his word.

Nearly a decade later, he has continued returning to the hospital, airbrushing temporary tattoos onto children using non-toxic, washable ink. The designs fade with water, but the confidence and joy they create last far longer.

The idea traces back to his own childhood, when he once drew over a burn scar to feel more comfortable in his skin. Today, with the support of hospital staff and the community, he continues sharing that same sense of strength and empowerment with young patients across New Zealand, proving how art can truly heal.
