...I'm not sure how I feel about seeing Angela Lansbury nearly get shot....

To whoever gave me a -3 for my "bitching special effects" comment, may I assure you I'm not callous to victims of ALS. Remember that a public service announcement or an advertisement needs to appeal to you to be effective, not merely pull at your heart strings. The flying bullet image did that. And the idea of walking away and dodging the bullet is pretty cool too.

@snootbox She moved numbnuts.

She moved out of the way of the bullet -it's clear to see on the video - and the bullet hit the wall behind her because she moved out of the way - are you blind?

PEOPLE "STAND UP" AND HELP FIND A CURE FOR THIS FATAL DISEASE THAT TRAPS A PERSON IN IT'S OWN BODY !!!

ALS is a horrible disease and one, based on my experience, for which the medical community tends to suppress information, deny, or greatly delay diagnosis. I liked the above ALS video by Angela Lansbury, but it had a significant flaw: Angela should have gotten up BEFORE the bullet hit the wall. Didn't make sense that the bullet hit the wall before she got up - because, since the bullet was aimed right at her, it would have hit her, not the wall, unless she had gotten out of the way.

If you or anyone you love is ever stricken with this disease, you will find this video VERY moving & affective !!!!!!!!! I lost my mother to ALS and unless you have walked in the shoes of a PALS or a CALS, do not judge!!

Just think how much cooler the Matrix would've been with her instead of Keanu...

reminds me of those Murder She Wrote episodes where Jessica almost gets shot by some crazy murderer after she uncovers their plot
