So, basically, this Italian brain surgeon had a heart attack while performing an operation on a patient. Since the patient would never have recovered if the doctor stopped the surgery, he finished the surgery before getting medical help himself.

Both doctor and patient are recovering.

That is the true meaning of a doctor right there. Someone who cares so much about life he'd put theirs above his own pain.

he's the cool guy of the day:D

That is hardcore. I applaud him for his dedication to his patients.

this guy is awesome

This raises the question: who's more badass, Vitale (the doctor) or Sully? :o

What a doctor.

What a hero, that is a extraordinary human being

Such dedication to the patient is admirable. That is a great doctor imo.

If I ever get a penny lodged in my brain, I'm going to that guy.

Heroic
