A short version of DJ's video was posted on Standup Journal's Facebook page:

Talk about raising awareness in the importance of a leggie.




That's the idea.. It's a little hard reading all the smart comments calling me a dumass and stupid etc but if out of all the people that see this if it saves just one life along with increasing awareness to this important issue it make all my embarrassment well worth while..


I Still love you DJ X

Who doesn't? I think DJ was brave to share a clip that he could easily have deleted. By putting it out there when he didn't have to, he may well have saved a life (or lives). Especially now that it has gone viral... that FB clip is up to well over 70,000 views now.

(PS... Hope they paid handsomely for your footage, DJ. )

PS... that Facebook page had this shot as their cover pic (probably been shared here on the Breeze before, but I'll share it again. I'm not sure how much a legrope would help me in this situation.... heart medication and a helicopter maybe.)
