#NewJersey #UPSDriver #Ida
My dad works at ups
What can brown do for you? Turns out, a lot…
I just shed a tear, what a happy ending 🤗
A good dude
Beautiful story!
God bless him!
He is a good man.
They’re lucky it wasn’t FedEx.
What an extraordinary experience. May they all meet once a year to reminisce. I would think all of them are a wee bit grateful after living thru this experience. Sorry had to laugh when the home that opened their doors was also a UPS driver-divine intervention! Nick thanks for giving a dam.
Lol not knowing where a tire isn’t is like saying i don’t know where the door knob is.
Thank you Nick for your heroic action. Just imagine there are those in our world that would "just watch them float away", and grab the cell phone to video the event!
Nick, you have grown to be a wonderful man and now you are a hero too! Great thinking a fast actions! That UPS home owner that took in th as wet strangers and cared for you all so completely as well, also a hero. Both of you UPS employees are beautiful examples of the best of humanity!
GO NICK!!!!!💖
What a MAN.
A guy with common sense and a good heart A winning combination!
What am I supposed to do just let people float away? Yes, yes that is exactly what greedy corporations want.
UPS could not have asked for better publicity
WHAT A HERO, SOMEONE QUICK PIN A MEDAL ON HIS SHIRT . ARE ANY OF OUR GOVERNMENT SEEING THIS? THIS IS WHAT A HERO LOOKS LIKE NOT LIKE YOU CLOWNS IN WASHINGTON.
LOVE THIS GUY!! 💕💋 GOD BLESS YOUR COURAGEOUS AND HEROIC HEART
UPS for Congress!
You stole my heart and I'm too old for you
Good job.
great story gives me hope in this crazy country we live in where all you see on the news is bad stories great to hear about a young man risking his own safety to come to the aid of others.
This would be impossible for FedEx as their trucks have 350+ packages in it. No room for a single person
That's the america I remember!!…
Yes. And wave 👋 to them while you pass
Great job and no when you see this you have to help for sure.
