Great story
I was at langhorne with my step dad the day jimmy died and remember it, my step dad was a USAC and NASCAR official and did scoring and pit stops at area races, Langhorne speedway races were a frequent weekend event with a barbacue in the parking lot while waiting for the traffic leaving onto Rt.1 to die down. We did races at Reading fairgrounds,Dover Delaware and Pocono Pa. If my memory serves me, Jimmy was ejected from the car and the car ended up over the guard rail on what would be the backstretch if the track wasn't a glorified circle. The track was dirt at first then blacktopped in the later years and had a tunnel from the grandstand area under the track to the infield. Popular drivers at the time were Jim Hurtabise, Mel Kenyon, A.j. Foyt, Mario Andretti. We went to Indy twice,1969 and 70 just as spectators, if I remember correctly Bobby Unser won the race in '69 driving the Risoline Special and scenes from the race and of the car were used in the movie "Winning" with Paul Numan and Robert Wagner starring. Good times and good memories, except for the Bryan accident. 3:52
Utterly rediculous. Why ? WTF purpose does this serve? This PR video doesn’t have ANY relevance to the woman’s qualifications to serve. No idea what Party she belongs to but this tells us nothing.
This woman being canadian, could also seek to the british ATA. Easier to come in and with good pay.
God bless you
it's been 12 years... retirement in 4
What an amazing story!💙💙 im watching you on First 48!💙💙💪
Hope you’re teaching them well
Every year on this day I listen.
Seeing him play basketball made my heart melt, He's so blessed
Gerda Klein is my hero. If you have not heard her full holocaust testimony, and that of her husband, Kurt, you must listen. They have such an amazing love story. Mrs. Klein is an inspiration. 🇺🇲🙏❤
Could not agree more! Her books are wonderful.
What an unbelievable and wonderful story. Men you are great, full of generosity, full of love. Thanks for sharing.
Wow
Wow! The hotel is much more restored now than in this video and it is spectacular! Well worth the drive.
thank you sir for your service. very sorry this happened to you.
Public service sometimes come with a high premium, and for the men and women in emergency services, there are daily reminders of the uniqueness of the career choices made. I remember this incident when it happened. I am Happy to see that this officer has survived. Needless to say; but after all the initial attention, press coverage and curiosity about his case it is still a day by day existence of hardship, and I will encourage all to think about those who put their lives on the line to support the safety of the public. I know they are not all perfect but realistically not everyone has the inclination to put themselves and their health and welfare second.
Oh shitt!
Señor dios los bendiga siempre a usted y familia .
My mother was a nurse in the Army in WW2. She helped save lives. Where's her gold medal?
Great book.
As far as I'm concerned JB was the best.
I grew up seeing that place every day
Bless the whole crew
Damn where was this reality show.
great dad's. great kids.
YES HE BOOTIFUL ;O
Congrats guys this is a wonderful story!
I am very attracted to this man. He has a wonderful personality, seems like an all around great guy, and strong in character. He is a huge inspiration. I like that he takes care of his appearance (such as how he dresses). He also has a handsome build and a nice smile.
I admire and honor, officer Jason! I personally saw him in my university who came as a guest speaker. What an inspirational story he told us. I truly admire him!
What a stong man with a powerful story. Love to his beautiful wife and children for supporting their hero father/husband. What a true inspiration! Thank you, Jason for your services!!
His wife is my sister's teacher
Feel so happy after watching this
I know his wife cause I used to go to St Gregorys catholic school. She's a great person
Only thing I can think to say is, congratulations on doing such a wonderful job! These children needed a safe, stable and loving home which you've provided them with. Much respect!

And he kept working, amazing person.Too many phonies out there disabled,You know who you are,if you need it do it, don't abuse it
The late great, Jimmy Bryan. What a racer among the 1950's class of open wheel auto racers of those days. Yes, danger was a lot more prevailing than the modern days of the sport. I read a detailed article about Bryan in, I think, the "Carl Hungness Indianapolis 500 Yearbooks" some time ago. (I've got all of the yearbooks that were published by him) In the article written by a Speedway Fire Department Captain, he remembers Bryan well by his likable friendly style. Bryan loved kids, people, and life. When that man died at that dangerous Langhorne track in 1960...life seemed to end for some of the race fans of Indy from those days. When that song: "Ballad of Jimmy Bryan" came out, it sound (and still does) like Marty Robbins version of "The Ballad of The Alamo". (I was back then, and still am, somewhat, an Alamo fan). I had a junior high & senior high school buddy who was a race car fan like me in the 1960's. He loved even back then, Jimmy Bryan. Thought he was "the best". I, myself, attribute that "best" to Jimmy Clark & A.J. Foyt Jr. Clark's death was a big loss to me. I liked this story about Bryan. I'll subscribe to Arizona Storytellers for more "tales of AZ". It will be like reading the old versions of "Arizona Highways". Besides, I've got relatives there I keep in touch with via Face Book.
homossexuais velhos adotando crianças ? ridiulous, o que voces querem com isso ? aparecer ?
Those poor kids.
Thank you, ma'am, for your service.
Amazing ladies. Sad that society did not recognise your achievements at that time.
Better late than never. Heck, so many other groups didn't get much glory either. The ground crewmen hardly ever are acknowledged for their invaluable service, the pilots and gunners get nearly all the glory usually. Those fellows were literally the reason the flyboys had success.
his wife was my teacher
Straight people have NO room judging . The world is F**KED because of stupid,idiotic straight people's stupid decisions/actions.
He's awesome. I don't even care what he looks like. He seems cool. That makes him awesome
👍
