Isn't this the guy that abandoned his wife and kid to do this? This isn't heroics.

EDIT: Yeah same guy, this was posted to Reddit a while back. https://www.reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/comments/1pfdkfs/...

His wife took his kid to another country where he was denied entry. She’s the villain here, if there is one.

FWIW his son joined him and they walked together for a while when he was in his 20s, seems like they reconciled.
