Something Really Special Happened Yesterday – The Fact That It Was On 9/11 Gives Me GOOSEBUMPS

You guys – yesterday was tough.

I legitimately could not believe some of the things I was reading.

Between the 9/11 truthers, the idiots who basically said “America DESERVED this,” and the a-holes who thought it was “stupid” that we still made a “big deal” out of it…

I was pretty devastated at the state of humanity.

But then I stumbled upon this late last night, and I’ve got to say… it lifted my heart just a little bit:

My heart is as warmed by the beautiful scene as it is by this man’s excitement.

It just reminds you that there’s good in the world. It may be small…but this feels like such a gift.

The now viral video has gotten more than 3 million views in 24 hours… proving Americans DO still care.

According to Daily Wire:

The eagle perched atop one of the two aerial trucks Andover fire fighters were using to hang a massive American flag — and right around the time of the national moment of silence. Chief Streich caught the “phenomenal” moment on camera and shared it on Facebook.

“Look what landed on top of the aerial on 9/11,” Streich says in the video. “Isn’t that unbelievable? This eagle just landed on the aerial while we were doing the 9/11 memorial. Phenomenal.”

KARE 11 provides some more details:

The fire truck, which was parked on the Highway 10 bridge, was holding an American flag to honor and remember those who lost their lives on 9/11. While the Andover Fire Department — along with several surrounding departments — held their tribute, an eagle perched at the top of the aerial truck, creating a chill-inducing moment.

“There’s no better symbol to represent America today than a flag but then for an eagle to land on a fire truck holding a flag, I mean, it doesn’t get much more symbolic than that,” Streich told the outlet.

“I had to look at it a few times,” he said, expressing his disbelief in the moment. “And then I thought, I need to videotape this!”

God Bless America.
