Hearing that applause at that moment, and imagining the scene made me teary eyed lol

@Zero2026X - me too - how I would have loved to be there ...

@Zero2026X <:) Ahh, me too. I've never heard an audience clap at that moment... really, they always should, for the fallen fearless hero!

[hoursofpallor]

@Amkii I don't actually think they always should... the calmness and stillness of that moment are what makes it so special. But in this case, it was really solely done as a tribute for the actor, and rightly so... It was very special.

[Amkii]

@hoursofpallor Hmm, very true. I agree with you as well! I'm split on this... I think they should applaud the fearless leader, but I also think it's a tragic, beautiful moment that needs to be observed in silence and awe... tricky situation! To clap or not to clap! Haha :)

[tashamercer]

That applause was gold!
