I find people like Schindler and this chap Bartali absolutely fascinating. I really couldn't honestly say what I'd do in their position. But the idea of putting your life right on the edge, risking being executed, to save others is absolutely mind boggling. It's easy to say "yeah I'd do the same" but who knows... I think these were truly open minded people who didn't just follow the rest which sadly happens far too much...
Thanks for the interesting bit of knowledge!
