Sir Nicholas Winton - BBC Programme "That's Life" aired in 1988

[MechaEmperor7000]

One can only imagine what was going through Winton's head when he saw that the entire audience of old men and women were the same children he'd saved all those years ago. God bless that man.

[Pepakudrna]

I know it all happens long time ago and it was almost forgotten. But Im still wondering why the Nobel Peace Prize have President, who only just speaking about peace and meanwhile he is leading war. I still wonder why Nicholas Winton is not rewarded...

[Naomilovesyou16]

Absolutely amazing. However I don't understand how anyone can dislike this? This video makes me cry & makes me realize how good my life is. He's a true hero.

[milky1234123]

This man is an angel among us, this is what people should strive to be

[babygigirl]

God bless you Mr Winton

[candyapplecarnage]

15 people are Nazi's

[LanesClassicComedy95]

This fucking made me cry

[demansquith]

simply a great man!

[TwlightPixie]

oh God crying like a baby....how wonderful for him to know he really did save them

[forevershining1]

I cry every time I watch this. I have never even heard of this before this video, but god it's such an amazing story..

[Ali74]

It was his wife who uncovered what he did after reading a scrapbook in the attic. Such an incredible and modest man. An example to us all.

[bewitchedas]

Beautiful!!! Inspiring and very touching. How wonderful it must have been for the survivors and Mr Winton to meet up again.

[SillyTheCow]

Only good for this man! God bless him!

[TylerVuTV]

What kind of heartless person would dislike this.

[GIASreviews]

Sometimes, you really think the human race sucks. Then you see something like this...

[blackbug111]

this man should be honored with greatest award in this world!!!!!!!!!

[Cheungkinmen]

A true human being and a true HERO!. We need more people like him, we should follow his steps.

[ox7bart7xo]

HERO!!!!!

[aalexjohna]

Blessed be

[Jazzawray]

his is perhaps the most worthwhile life lived in the 20 th century .good will always triumph .

[lenimaciellove]

È muito bom saber que ainda existem pessoas boas na terra, anjos sem asas mas com um coração tão generoso. obrigada por vc tre feito isso

[Azevedo850]

simplesmente lindo ,que bom que Deus ainda manda seus anjos na terra para poupar os inocentes....esse homen teve o maior jesto de amor que alguem poderia ter ........

[fandes1]

When I saw the movie Nicky children all I've cried

[JackSpesim]

Muito lindo, que Deus abençoe este bondoso homem!

[ramesh076]

Poignant! Thats all I got to say! A true inspiration.

669 lives saved! An ultimate saviour!

Only 284,205 views from 1/9/2009 to 25/4/2011.

I'm totally unimpressed with the amount of views this video has received!

And so far we've had 15 Nazi satans hate this incredible video!

[selty]

Jesus I can't stop crying this is so beautiful.

[Alice1Edward]

He is one of the greatest mens on the world :) I own him my life too - he saved my grandma.

[CryLam4]

This man is hero and i have seen him on my own eyes. It was so amazing. Really, i was in awe. He deserve the best... Sir Nickolas Winton, thank you!

[CryLam4]

This man is a hero!

[ncncncx]

Beautiful!

[soulextaz2]

מרגש עד מאוד טוב לדעת שבתוך כל הרוע נמצאים אנשים בעלי נשמה יתרה

[peperonyandchease]

At 1:12 the guy with the gray tie really wants to sit down, but doesn't want to be the first to do it.

[Seanwins]

@peperonyandchease We must share the same brain.

[iliad344]

That was just so powerful. Truly amazing man.

[SteelTipped1]

Made my hair raise. I aspire to be a fraction of the human being that this man is.

[randwan]

What a wonderful video.

[niniomigrania]

Can someone please stop chopping the onions here?

[niall111]

Freakin dust in this room!

[Tigarius4]

Major karma!

[Testifyexe]

It is very rare that a youtube video has made me smile and tear up at the same time. This did.

[unsmurfettable]

When he started to cry...I was gone

When they all stood up...I couldn't breathe I was crying so hard.

[PoirotAddict]

God bless this lovely man, I want to know more about him

[dave8386]

I chose this man for my American Studies project randomly, and I couldn't be luckier. What a hero. If I were to see this man in real life, I wouldn't know what to do. I'd want to kiss his feet.

[MarieValentina]

how can you honestly dislike this video!

[abig111]

The story in Hebrew:

בשנת 1938, סייע ניקולס וינטון ל- 669 ילדים יהודים להימלט ממוות בטוח מפני הנאצים. הוא מעולם לא סיפר לאף אחד שהוא עשה זאת. במהלך טיול סקי בשווייץ, עשה וינטון מעקף בצ 'כוסלובקיה כדי לעזור לילדי פליטים. גרמניה הנאצית סיפחה לאחרונה חלק גדול של צ 'כוסלובקיה והחדשות על ליל הבדולח, הגיעו בדיוק לפראג.

[bartInterlagos]

Se cada um de nós fôssemos pelo menos 10% do que este homem é, nosso mundo seria excelente!

[bgayner]

And Al Gore wins the Nobel Peace Prize...Beau Gayner

[gorangrooves]

Waow! Incredible.

[rabbitnitasha]

i think the most powerfull moment of this was when every one stood up.

[indigenous2logic]

I can't stop watching this, one of the most moving videos on YouTube.

[0c00ler0]

i cant stop crying..

[0c00ler0]

i cant stop crying..

[Svinue]

@0c00ler0 me too

sucha great man

I am from czech republic

[Nckdaman]

got so many chills 

[vladdegs]

What an incredibly powerful video; it just sucks you and stops you dead in your tracks. It's one of the most moving things I've ever seen. And Nicholas Winton is so very distinguished, warm and modest, after saving nearly 700 Czech Jewish children from certain death. It's so beautiful; I'm actually lost for words.

[xmanii]

Seven heartless bastards.



[laiminhthang]

my first time when i saw this "movie" i wanted cry,bcs i cant imagine that if now i will see my parents last time and they will go die just bcs fcking hitler :(( it's quite sad :(( can u guys imagine,that children was like 8months old or 5 years old? it's really sad :(( but Nicolas is a cool guy ... 50 years haven't tell anybody,that he rescued 669 children ! what a HERO...

[adambucci]

Sir Nicholas Winton must win Nobel prize!!!!

[snugspenguin]

@adambucci though he didn't win a nobel prize, he did in fact win many awards for what he did.

[SlyCooperRuler]

Man I love this! It's so touching. He's a real hero. He never told anybody or anything. He didn't expect anything in return for saving all those children. That is a true hero. He didn't need super powers. He just needed a kind heart. I love this story so much. It makes me so happy.

[mofmmcjklfmm]

"Renata Laxova, Ph.D., a paediatric geneticist, is the discover of the Neu-Laxová syndrome, a rare congenital abnormality involving multiple organs, with autosomal recessive inheritance. She was born in Brno, Czechoslovakia, and survived the Holocaust by inclusion in the Kindertransport"

This is just 1 example of a child saved by Winton. Just imagine the other 1 million children/ 6 million Jews/ ~12 million total killed in the Holocaust- how far advanced would we be had they lived?

[mofmmcjklfmm]

Thank you Mr. Winton. Your good deeds must have given you amazing karma if you are still alive at 101 years old.

[worsleg]

I've just watched a documentary on Sir Winton. What a truly remarkable man. He should have been sainted as well as knighted.

[phil1958uk]

A fantastic, man.

[Mezza0210]

@mr18plus3 What a poor outlook on life. How can you put the saving of human lives into perspective? Both men presumably did everything they could to save as many as they could. I don't know about John Rabe, not because I choose to believe every Nazi was bad, as you so naively put it, but because he's less well known.

Also, I find the line "saved ONLY 669 children" disgusting.

[Cartoontickling]

Rabe: head of group of "many" who protected Chinese in Nanking had between 300 and 400 in his garden In China a hero but his own colleague Robert Wilson, missionary/doctor who worked with him wrote of Rabe:

"He is well up in Nazi circles and after coming into such close contact as we have for the past few weeks and discovering what a splendid man he is and what a tremendous heart he has, it is hard to reconcile his personality with his adulation of 'Der Fuhrer'" how YOU see it

[roversjeff]

A wonderful man! God Bless You! Never mind Sir you should be a Saint!

[aspenmonkey]

An act of pure and unadulterated good i am merely a shadow of this man bravo sir.

[aspenmonkey]

An act of pure and unadulterated good i am merely a shadow of this manbravo sir.

[mr18plus3]

A great man.

BUT just so you all know not every Nazi was bad.

John Rabe (a German Nazi) saved over 200,000 people during the Nanking massacre 1937.

Sir Nicholas Winton saved only 669 children in 1939. Puts things into persepective.

Winton is labellled a hero and lived a comfortable life. Rabe died in 1950 living in poverty and starvation, with little acknoledgement for his heroic acts.

People chose to remember history how they see it. Not how it was.

[cobbygobbywobble]

Haven't cried like that in Years. He's such an amazing man!

[jessicarossica]

he is a truly amazing man who everyone should know about! He is truly enspiring the way he didn't tell anyone until his wife found out. This video brought a tear to my eye! <3 <3 he is a true modern day hero forget celebrities these are the people we want to know about!!!! God bless this man and any other heroes like him xxxxxxxx :)

[BobeshCZE]

The moment after "is there anyone... please stand up..." is probably one of the most emotive moments i have ever seen... Still have tears in my eyes sometimes when watching this... God bless this good man!

[YerushalayimShelZaha]

I am so grateful to BBC for doing this. It's so important tht we remember great heros like Nicholas Winton. All we hear about the Shoah was the many who looked the other way and did nothing. I would rather remember the many thousands who risked everything, including their own children, to do what was right in the sight of G-d. I assure you that what they did will be remembered long after this world passes away-----for all eternity.

[Kamy333]

Discovered about this amazing men only today by incident. What a great person he is.wowwwww. bless him

[Hawkeye83CZ]

World needs more people like Nicholas! I like people like him, I just want to be little bit same. My point is not about save lot of childern every day or give milions to charity. The way is that help to each other, be kind and care about other people.

[rayethon]

There are still more then 400 kids from this transport living around the world, who have not been found yet, probably living in South America, South Africa and USA and Canada. A czech historians are searching for them for documentary purposes. Please if you have any knowledge about any person from this list, please let me know and I will pass it to Mr. Minac, who have done 3 movies about this story and is friend of Sir Nicholas Winton.

[Domca17]

it always makes me cry... ♥

[BrookeLovesJoeJonas]

i cried. he's such a wonderful person

[claudiareyes18]

if only people were that kind now in days

[startvideonow]

this is by far the best video on youtube

[kcrcbest]

JUST SOOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL THANX WOOOOOOOW ; ) BRINGS TEARS TO MY EYES JUST SOOOOOOO WONDERFUL , THANX FOR PUTTING THIS ON : )

[Adar26]

To save one life is to save an entire world! G-d Bless You Nicholas Winton

[acatani]

Six dislikes...

[Edgey13]

What an amazing man :')

A national holiday should be created in his honour.

[MonsterBobBurns]

Shame on you six people who voted a thumbs down. Shame on you for your lack of humanity and decency and compassion and empathy and all the finer qualities of the human race. It is your thinking that will bring about the next holocaust. Perhaps you are even at this moment, planning it.

[noodles41]

@MonsterBobBurns I think you'll find all the thumbs down was just Hitler refreshing the video over & over again

[TarAncalyme]

after watching The Return of the King´s ending for like 10th time, I managed not to cry... but I don´t think I´ll ever be able to do so with this video... :)

[raanan111]

The kindness of a good, beautiful man in a harsh, cruel world can change humanity.

G-d bless Nicolas Winston.

[stevengerson]

G-d bless Sir Nicholas Winton.

[oXambyXo]

who the hell were the 5 people that disliked this? seriously what is wrong with you?

[maz59]

P.S. to my last post..I think this might be what I remembered and meant

youtube.com/watch?v=-H5gQah2wC­8&feature=fvw [which was more recent]

[maz59]

I think there was another later programme that they did - as I saw something about him in the last few years..[with grown up kids he rescued in the audience]

[Waclaw111]

I am from Czech rep. , one of the Winton children called Tom Graumann came to our school with presentation about this hero, when the movie about him has ended, none of the people in that room was moving. Everybody were paralyzed with tears on their faces. Even I ,who hadn´t cried on funerals of my both grandmas, had tears with my eyes. It was like best moment ever

[chatisaac]

videos like these are what being a human being is all about!! what say guys????? dont u guys agree??? videos like these remind us all that we may have a multitude of differences, a ton of complaints about each other about each other's culture, about each other's nations but in ESSENCE we are ALL humans!!! How wonderful wud it be if we cud all get along. This man is a legend. This is one of the mst touching videos i have ever seen. Peace guys. Hope all u guys hve a great life. cheers!!!

[RawrMeAllNight]

Anyone who disliked this obviously knows nothing about the Nazis nor how many people would have died if not for this man.

[jacf182]

And this man, folks, is the kind of people the world desperately needs.

[AngelusDlion]

don't you guys EVER think that one person can't make a difference.

Excuse me now, I have something in my eye....

[snubbedpeer]

Where is the rest of this program, anyone have a clue ?

[mikeldna]

This is so touching... When I saw all that people standing up I could realize how important is that man, and even beeing a hero he remains humble. Thank you for this moment.

[55peti]

He is a fantasic man!! :)

[gawdimir]

... amazing... the is... tsc, I'm crying. No more words.

[thegeniusfilms]

4 nazi ppl dislike this video!

[Drnovaes]

Um homem com esse caráter, honradez e nobreza sem igual deveria ser homenageado pelo mundo todo e ter ele como exemplo em escolas e inserido em livros de história.

@ImCarlooss Same here, but Im a 13 year old girl. This guy is amazing.

[Tifennie]

[stormyRPG]

This man deserves a movie. He is a legend.

[zedzdead2007]

@stormyRPG two films by Slovak filmmaker Matej Mináč: the drama All My Loved Ones (Všichni moji blízcí) (1999)in which Winton was played by Rupert Graves; and the documentary The Power of Good: Nicholas Winton (Síla lidskosti — Nicholas Winton) (2002), which won an Emmy Award

[Booogeym4n]

gem of a man

[bigsteve77]

This is so beautiful. His heroism cannot be understated. I have no connection to any of these people and yet I could not watch this without getting goosebumps and crying. Beautiful.

[covermewithaleaf33]

wow .. this is a great guy. he is really old thinking about all he has survived through and done .. much respect.

[FayeMidori]

To do something like that and ask for nothing in return.. I mean this story brought tears to my eyes. I don't think I've ever met or will ever meet anyone who needs nothing. A true hero. Damn

[smileyfacediaana]

Congratulations to Sir Nicholas on his 101st year.

[MrPumpkinJohn]

He isn't a hero. He is only human and he don't forget what is humanity. He is more than a hero.

Sorry for my english

[magicglock]

@MrPumpkinJohn ty debílku.Kolik takových lidí projevilo svojí lidskost?

[MrPumpkinJohn]

@magicglock Právě že nikdo! Napsal sem že je pouze člověk co nezapomenul co je lidskost! Byla to poklona ne narážka pokudto bylo gramaticky aspoň trochu správný tak sis přeložil že sem napsal že to znamená víc než hrdina. Je spousta lidí o kteržch se učí a mnohdy nedosáhli takovýho skutku jako udělal pan Winton.

[CZConcordia]

@MrPumpkinJohn Napsal si to správně;).

[babygirlucy]

God bless him! I cry everytime I see this video!

[Harvardgirl121]

If only everyone were like this. The world would be amazing,

He is a hero in my eyes, and his story fills me with warmth

god bless
