The word "hero" gets thrown around a lot these days. In the most grotesque examples, we even see z-lister celebrities being referred to as people's "heroes".
Well, Still Riding is a fantastic documentary depicting the real lives of men who truly are heroic. Brave, intelligent and selfless men who were willing to walk into the most hellish environments imaginable to save the lives of others, even when they knew it would be the end of them.
Still Riding begins as an interesting window into the lives of some of the most elite firefighters in New York (and also the world).
By the end of the production, it morphs into a truly poignant reminder of the devastating losses inflicted by 9/11, and the incredible people that day who were as brave and heroic as the terrorists were cowardly and ruthless.
Definitely worth a watch if you haven't seen it, you'll take away a real appreciation of these great people.
