Just there was so many things happening that I'd struggled. First of all, I don't know how he's he's he's he's th he's th th th is th th th th th th th th th thi thi thi thi thi's thi's thi's thi's thi thi thi thi tho tho tho to happening that I'd struggle. First of all, I don't know how he's pulling himself up every single time. I also don't get how weak the neighbor is. Because the neighbor's holding the kid. And the kid is like the hero of the story.
Starting point is 00:00:54 That kid's holding on. Like the kid is just hanging there. You're like, what kind of a kid is just hanging on and the neighbor is like, I cannot save you. Because you realize the migrant, like the guy climbs up, I don't know if he's like five or seven floors, pulling himself up and then pulls the child, with one hand by the way, pulls the child up. But then the guy who's holding him already is just like, yeah, I cannot do anything. It's almost like, I almost am suspicious that the guy who was like helping the neighbor, you find like he doesn't like that kid. And then the kid was over the edge and he was like, oh no, look Mary.
Starting point is 00:01:31 It is the little boy from next door who is always waking us up at 4 a.m. What has happened? Ah, he has fallen over the balcony. Somebody should save him.

Should, are you going to save him? I guess so. Come on, little boy. Ah, I'm saving you. Ah, you are so heavy, I cannot lift you.
Starting point is 00:01:52 It looks like you are going to fall and then I'm going to sleep in every morning. Oh no, what are we going to, wait, what is that man doing? Hey, what are you doing? What are you doing? Okay, you save the kid well done. It's just like a wild. Like, oh man. And here's my, the thing for me, the larger moral of the story and the thing that frustrates me with people is how we live in this world of extremes now. because then I get the joy that people have in
Starting point is 00:02:27 watching that video and going like Mamadu is now going to be a citizen of France and people like you see immigrants are good people and it's like no but the reason I don't want to buy into that idea is because then someone who's racist shows you one video of a bad immigrant you know a a gang, a drug dealer, whatever, and they're like, you see, or it's like, no, hey, people are people. There's great people, there's despicable people. And the whole thing you're trying to fight is the labeling of everybody as one thing. That's what we're trying to fight.
