Man Saved by Mid-Air Grab [1]

Spring [2] sent me this one, as Trevor Perks is on a mailing list she's on.
She was wondering why people were congratulating him and offering to make an
action hero out of him.

Spring also said he volunteered last month to be pepper sprayed in order to
test a new formula.

I guess some people just aren't satisified with sipping coffee and watching
Survivor.
