Natural Born Heroes

This program examines arguably the most human instinct of all: the instinct to protect, which, combined with other qualities, prompts people to risk everything for the sake of others. Three gripping stories—a mother who wrestled a cougar to save her son, a soldier who braved enemy fire to rescue a comrade, and two men who helped a woman in a wheelchair escape the collapse of the World Trade Center—are spotlighted. The effect of the familial gene pool on the impulse for self-sacrifice is considered as well, along with the role of mirror neurons in promoting empathy and a bent for fair play shared by humans and vampire bats alike. A BBCW Production. (50 minutes)
