[Silver Lining] Finally a nice story from Japan

[Shyria Dracnoir]

Or at least a balls bustingly epic one

Akaiwa said he was at work a few miles away when the tsunami hit, and he rushed back to find his neighborhood inundated with up to 10 feet of water. Not willing to wait until the government or any international organization did, or did not, arrive to rescue his wife of two decades — whom he had met while they were surfing in a local bay — Akaiwa got hold of some scuba gear. He then hit the water, wended his way through the debris and underwater hazards and managed to reach his house, from which he dragged his wife to safety.

He later went back and saved his mother who was stuck elsewhere when the tsunami hit. Apparently he's still riding out on his own in search of survivors.

I think he deserves this.
