This hero should be allowed to never have to pay taxes again.

He is worthy to lift Mjölnir

If you put a thousand marines in that situation, they’d do all the same thing for me. Goosebumps. Much respect!

“There is no greater love than this: that a person would lay down his life for the sake of his friends.” And in this case, he willing did and got to live as well. I have so much respect for those who protect and serve. Selfless.

Hero is such a small word for such a huge sacrifice.

Bruno Mars: I'll take a grenade for you. Marine: Hold my beer.

A true hero, one that will not hesitate to give his own life to save another. Much respect.

Its crazy how the medics got him out of there with his massive balls weighing him down.

in his future job interviews: “im also a medal of ho-.....” “youre hired”

This man is the living pinnacle of brotherhood in arms. This is easily the most selfless thing I will ever witness, this man deserves a statue at Marine basic training. A true leading example.

Now that is the kind of person you give that medal to. Not talk show hosts, not comedians. They're military medals that you have to earn. They're earned by going above and beyond in the line of duty. He took a grenade which earns him mad respect and he definitely deserved the Medal of Honor. Way to go, bro.

Marine: Throws his body onto a grenade to protect his friend Death: Out of pure respect. I'm gonna pretend I didn't see that.

I'm extremely glad he survived his courageous act.

Words can't describe his bravery, selflessness and love for his brothers. RESPECT!

His face looks pretty good after the blast.

Everyone talking about the guy's big balls, to me what he has is a massive heart. Respect

It’s a rare thing to see someone who made a conscious decision to sacrifice their own life to save someone else’s. God bless him.
