Save my Baby


A fire is raging in an old building in Collingwood. A crowd has gathered in the street and they see a woman standing at a window on the third floor. She is holding a small baby.

 

"Save my Baby" she screams, knowing that she will not make it herself. "Ssve my Baby" again wafts through the smoke and flames. A man steps fprward from the crowd and yells

'I'm Captain Blood. In 20 years of first grade footy, I never missed a mark. I'll catch your baby'. Hesitation on the third floor, but the flames are gettig closer now.

 

Finally the woman throws the baby. Thirty five years of practice takes over now. He focuses on the baby soaring through the air. Twice he adjusts his position, he sets himself. The crowd is silent, everyone holding their breath at this critical moment. At last the baby is near. Instinct is now in control. A pair of knobbly old hands reaches out and safely catches the baby. The baby is safe!

 

Instinct is still boiling over. The crowd cheers wildly. He turns around and kicks a goal...
