Heroic Dad "Rick Van Beek"

Rick van Beek of Byron Center, Michigan, used to be an ordinary guy who wasn't much of an athlete. He wasn't much of an athlete, he drank, he smoked he chewed tobacco. But when Rick's now 13-year-old daughter Maddy, who suffers from cerebral palsy, came into his life he stopped those bad habits and replaced them with some very heroic ones.

Now every year Rick takes his daughter with him on half-marathons and other outdoor races. Together "Team Maddy" has participated in more than 70 triathlons. Maddy herself cannot walk or talk, so Rick pushes Maddy in a buggy, pulls her in a special bike when it comes to cycling and pulls her through the water in a custom-made kayak. One thing Rick knows about Maddy is that she enjoys being outside with the breeze in her hair and in her face.

Now their young lives are ruined and there's nothing their parents, Disney or anybody else can do about it!

Worst Job Ever?

This man has one of the world's worst jobs. He is a sewer diver in Delhi, India. Every day he dives into the filthy drains to manually unclog them. The man works just in his underwear and gets only $5.5 a day plus a bottle of booze. 70 per cent of 'sewer divers' die on the job and 61 persons have died in the last six month alone.
