If a man like Dahmer can get a biopic of his disgusting story, this man deserves it a thousand times more. He lived a wealthy and secure life as a stock broker, he had no business in bureaucracy, but through sheer wit and will, he followed the kindness of his heart and realized a plan that helped save countless generations of families. And he saved all those lives without ever boasting about it. His story is fascinating considering all the obstacles that he faced and overcame along the way. He is someone that will surely inspire people to not only have the will power and dedication to realize your dreams, but to help those in need because you want to help, not because you yearn for recognition and validation.

I'm not defending Roosevelt or Congress at all with the horrible decisions the US made during WW2. We have to look deeper into what was happening in the US at the time. The US was obsessed with eugenics at the time and was deep in nationalism. Cries of America First and being against immigration were very strong from the late 1900s into WW2. Eugenics was a culture wave for white middle class and up Americans. This was when sterilization, placing people into institutions, and the "one drop" laws came into effect. An excellent book on Eugenics by Edwin Black called, War On The Weak is a great book to understand how the eugenics became such a rage, the effects on our culture, and who was affected. The Nazis actually toured the US with their eugenics campaign, went to a training camp in Virginia, and utilized what they learned to apply to their Great Solution.

And he never spoke much to anyone there, he didn't like to have many people help and he only wanted a few select ppl to be the ones to take care of him I had gained his trust and became one of the select few.

This would make another good movie, if Spielberg is up to it. And to think that this man continued to help others even in his declining years. I am sure that heaven welcomed him.💕💕💕💕

So if you're going to take on an impossible mission you need a very special person. This gentleman was a smooth operator. Blackmail, bribes, forgery. Yeah its about the children so whatever it takes.. What an incredible man. Rest well Sir. You earned it.

I have watched this multiple times and it never ceases to amaze me how one man was able to save so many kids in the middle of utter chaos and death. A life well lived

Wow what a story. At 65 I've been a student if ww2 all my life. Can't believe I haven't heard of him before. Without doubt there are many more like him. I first became aware of the holocaust in 1964 while watching our BW tv with my brother when a french documentary with opera music and horrific scenes of the camps came on pbs. I had nightmares and was never the same. The end of innocence.

I am thinking the same. My parents, who were children (in Denmark) during the WWll had/have dozens of books on survival stories and all kinds of subjects related to the war. And I never heard of Nicholas Winton.

Well I think his silence left a void of knowledge that everyone missed. So it wasn't overlooked it was never seen.

My father was a Holocaust Survivor, and was saved in similar fashion by total strangers. I owe them, and men like Sir Nicholas my life and I try to remember that every day.

Without fanfare, applause or recognition, he help strangers. Do better people, do better.

Amazing story .such modesty and compassion. Someone who made an enormous difference to so many.

He lived long enough to tell his story, what an amazing man. He should be included in all Future history books

Today we watched this video in our classroom and I just wanted to say how I’m disgusted with how my classmates behaved they were laughing at the way Winston was talking and laughing at whatever he said. It makes me disgusted to see how parents don’t bring their children up better as people instead of trying their hardest to be funny.

Imagine what this world would be with a few more people like him. Incredible human being.

What a wonderful man! He was blessed with a beautiful heart and soul! He’s so cute! A beautiful and courageous moment during a horrible time in history.

I am one of the "Winton children" and knew "our Nicky" well. Because it is important that people know about Sir Nickolas Wintom and his deed. I have, for the past 25 yearsybeen visiting schools and other gatherings to talk about him and what happened in 1939. I am 91 years old and still do so.

May God continune to bless you, I hope you are in good health. If you are willing to share some stories of those times, I would appreciate it. @@zuzanamaresova654

beautiful! surely one of the most important stories to be shared in my lifetime

It's not just Nicholas... I believe a big part of it is also because of his mother. She ran the "office" in London. Indeed, a great mother & son tandem!

May his soul rest in perfect peace. He was a very good man. May is wonderful soul rest in a better place in heaven. A live well lived.

He's a Saint.

What a hero! So ashamed that my country refused to help save more lives.

What he did was smart but very simple. He realized the plight of strangers and made the extraordinary decision to do something about it.

The pain in this man’s eyes about his parents… I felt it. His parents did what any parent would do… even though it emotionally killed them

What an amazing life. A great example for my generation and beyond! ❤😢🎉

This segment is so inspirational and heartbreaking at the same time. We need more people in the world like this man. SO happy for the people he saved.

What a humble man he is. Risking his live also to save all those innocent children. Why they didn't do a movie? R.I.P. Mr Winton South Australia

HE IS AN ANGEL 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

A man with a mission _ Came, accomplished, fullfilled and gone. Leaving us with only memories of his heroic works.

Stories like this move me. Huhu. Thank you sir! 🙌🙌🙌
