A geyser is shooting out at a 45-degree angle, spewing water 30 to 40 feet. The high-pressure stream of water is showering nearby cars with debris. A man leaps from the car and runs to the location of the broken water line. He’s a man who sees a problem and immediately jumps into action to fix it. Reaching down into the access hole, he quickly turns the valve to shut off the water.

Looking a bit like professional wrestler Samoa Joe, the man noticed the geyser while driving through a parking lot. Turning to his wife, he said, “Can we stop? I know how to turn it off.” She stopped, and he jumped out to save the day. With a pair of borrowed pliers, he kneeled and reached into the access hole. Within a few seconds, he had the valve turned off, and the water from the broken water line stopped flowing.
He quickly returned the pliers to the man from whom he borrowed them. They uttered a few words and shared a smile. The good Samaritan returned to his vehicle and drove off as if that was a normal moment in his life.
His wife recorded the video and posted it to TikTok. The man has received 273 marriage proposals, and 68 women have offered a one-for-one trade of their current husbands. Just kidding, but women love a man who sees a problem and fixes it. No fanfare. No fishing for compliments. Just action. Boom. Problem solved. Kudos to this man for being “one of those guys.”
If you have a guy like this, hold onto him. If you have a procrastinator, we can offer you the number of a handyman near you.
