Mr Gassama's four-storey dash is a reminder of another Malian hero who gained national prominence in January 2015 during an extremist attack on a Jewish supermarket in Paris.
A young Malian employee, Lassana Bathily, was credited with saving the lives of six hostages including a baby when he led them to a safe hiding place, escaped, then directed gendarmes to their rescue. Two weeks later - after six years of struggling to secure legal residency in France - Mr Bathily was given a medal and a French passport by then President François Hollande. In 2016, he wrote a book ''Je ne suis pas un heros'' (I am no hero) and created a charity whose first project was to provide irrigation for his home village in western Mali. Like Mr Bathily's selfless leadership to save the hostages, Mr Gassama's heroic climb to save the boy cements the image of Mali as a country with a culture of old-fashioned public spiritedness. The Malians seem an OK crowd tbh .. |

It would be nice is sky didn't just force this misrepresented story down our throats every half hour.
I would be wonderful if we had the same level and constancy of ALL migrant stories. |

Why didn't the other guy pull the kid to safety?
|
|
By:
Just seen this on tv the guy in the next flat was edgeing the little lad to safety when the guy from Mali snatched him from his hands.
Fair play to him tho |

Aye so you have.
He always posts that when I mention him but ignores all other posts. Spotty we all know you are too nosey to block anyone. ![]() |

No one has mentioned the M Word!
Go on Moisok! Oh to hell with it......was he a Muslim! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I have to say this looked like a bit of a stunt to me. We don't see how far along the ledge the kid was at the beginning of the climb. I think the kid was standing on something and not just clinging to the ledge for dear life. It was caught beautifully on film. Don't you think the guy on the balcony would have climbed along to try and save the kid? I know there was a partition but he could have got onto the adjacent balcony fairly easily. I hope this was not a stunt because it is a beautiful story and the young man of the hour seems like a genuine lovely guy. Do people really see him as black or Malian or as an immigrant or just as an amazing brave young man? Note to moisok.... Love Trumps hate! |
|
By:
the guy was already on the balcony and he was the first to save the child
hope this helps just waiting for 1.01 to land |
|
By:
if the child had decent parents the situation was unlikely to happen
I won't be losing any money on this one where was mum ho ho - not gone home has she? |
|
By:
Just saw another video.
The kid was dangling alone and didn't look like it's feet were resting on anything. The guy in the adjacent balcony was not present as the IMMIGRANT started to scale the building. The guy on the balcony appeared and the kid was moving towards him and possibly he held the kids arm first but the AFRICAN MAN had no idea he was there until the last moment. It was natural for him to grab the kids arm and pull him to safety. Still good to see that moisuk cannot bring himself to mention the hero of the hour was BLACK and is currently an AFRICAN and an IMMIGRANT. He may be a Frenchman soon and a Fire Fighter and tax payer! C'mon moisey say the black fella did good! |

By:
Do we know the date of this event, and/or subsequently when he got to see the president?
|
|
By:
Yes the other guy seemed to be telling the kid to try to climb as the kid clearly makes an attempt. But the black guy surely wans't going to say 'Sir, I see you already reached here first and seem to be making good progress so i'll leave you to it(and off he flies)...Nothing unhoefflich about it, he just did what he should have done without thinking.
Surely the police must have acted against the parents? The kid left alone like that with access to balcony. Mother might just be taking a shower, we seem to be assuming from a half a minute video that she wasn't home. Clearly publicizing the deeds of the parents or the parents themselves is neither in the interest of the media nor the politicians. Both already seem to have gotten their favorite part of the story. |

By:
Apparently the mother was living somewhere else and was to join the family in a few days after the boy moved in with his father awaiting her arrival, if I've read it right

is this a french custom ?
|

By:
If you notice just as the immigrant reaches the balcony that the kid is dangling from the other guy in the adjacent one is just about to pull him in too.
The immigrant simply HAD to then pull the kid over himself even before he had both legs over otherwise he would have looked a complete berk. It was certainly a brave act and no mistake. But just consider all the people watching living in high rise blocks leaving windows open during the summer months in the belief nobody could climb up......could they? ![]() |

By:
moisok,
you are the wrong thread luv. It is a good news story. I know you are finding it difficult but an IMMIGRANT who is a BLACK AFRICAN did something really wonderful! Get over it! btw the Dad has been threatened with two years in jail. |

the other bloke saved the kiddie first
he has been ignored hope this helps |
|
By:
shame we don't get the same repetitive and forensic journalism over ALL immigrant stories/incidents
there should be a lot more of it |
|
By:
Moisok ive told you many times to create a mega thread instead of whining about your favorite issue on every thread.

By:
![]() This must be eating you up moisy! C'mon let's switch the subject to Rotheram! Congratulations on their promotion! |
|
By:
yeah they don't want to know about rotherham - 3 years later after the promises - labour mp and 20 others say there is no survey/investigations/studies into why there is so much of this asian grooming gangs going on but don't even mention it and it might go away
what the mp doesn't realise is both parties want their votes so they are almost untouchable |
|
By:
yes and rotherham getting promoted is REALLY eating me up
do your friends go to their matches? all joining in with the lads and lasses and having a couple of beers together as well would love to see them mixing - would do the area a lot of good |

By:
No thread for Belgium shooting moisok? The guy even shouted Allah o akbar. You're way off your game at the moment.

'.......Malian Mamoudou Gassama has been widely and rightly praised for his heroic intervention to save a child dangling from a fourth-floor balcony. But the mainstream media coverage has had troubling aspects, such as the unchallenged promotion of the idea that immigrants have to 'earn' the right to be treated with humanity.
But another such feature stands out even more. Mamoudou Gassama is a Muslim, like around ninety percent of Malians - but most who have read about or watched video of his exploits would be unaware of this fact from the 'MSM' coverage. But imagine he had committed an atrocity instead of being a hero. Can you imagine for a microsecond that there would have been no mention of his religion? It would form the core of every bulletin or piece of analysis.......' |

By:
wot shooting it is probably false right wing bbc propaganda covering up the brutal police killing of a poor guy coz of his colour
I know these things and see straight through them |

I look forward to more and more stories about Immigrants. It should be applauded.

this story about the illegal migrant is all reported falsely
the person who saved the child from DEATH was the guy next door if he hadn't intervened there may not have been a need for spider man to leap into action hope this helps |

By:
detraveller - the KHANTian person who said I was in favour of bombing countries
as I said, lfc has this wrong - he cannot see there was no need for the belgian police to over react you simply cannot go around just gunning people down match abandoned |

By:
Yes the muslims seem to have the whole media, paris mayor and macron in their pockets now. I just can't figure out how they can become so powerful.
|
|
By:
I mean they rape, kill, bomb, preach and force little girls to marry. Yet they have such control over the media that they can portray themselves as the hero. Yet they can stage an event like this and next we know spiderman is sitting with Macron. Incredible contorl and influence.
