It's being a human and taking care of your fellow humans. I think that's the big aspect of it. Taking the training is easy. Being strong. And if you do encounter that situation, be strong and be diligent. And make sure, you know, bring that person back. Because that person, no matter what they're doing, they didn't want to die.
