The UFC community burst into tears when they saw the clip that the BJJ legend Renzo Gracie shared on his social media account. There are a few instances when humanity comes together as they face a disaster on an unprecedented scale. Similar was the case when on February 6, huge jolts shook the country of Turkey and Syria, and what followed was destruction on a vast scale. While the relief facilities and rescue work still continue, soul-wrenching images surface here and then. Besides, over a million were left homeless and the death toll exceeded 47, 000. In another visual from the ground, a rescue team found a man in an awkward bend position in his last endeavor to protect his son.

Notably, the 55-year-old took to his social media handles as he shared a video, where the rescue team found a man in the rubble. While they tried to take out his body, the team realized that the man was holding onto a child. In the miraculous incident, the child was still alive, all thanks to his father who sacrificed his life in order to protect his son.
