Comments: Brotherhood–Friendship–A saving grace. An angelic August rescued Ethan from a near death experience in the Ganges river of India. During a rafting ride the group flew over a rapid waterfall and the boat turned over. Ethan fell out and was sucked through a whirlpool to the bottom of the dark calm waters in a quiet silence recounting his life experiences as a flash of light in the void with a single breath while saying hello and goodbye to floating heads of his mom, dad, brother, and significant other. Letting go of the bodily attachments at the last second led him to floating back up to the surface. August saw him from above and reached down with his mighty arm and length to fish Ethan out of the sacred river. Ethan was saved! A hand from God, from his brothers keeper. This video is a visual homage for healing. Symbolizing that same life saving, life bearing, life giving traumatic moment from 10 years ago, when August uplifted his friend Ethan to the mountains of safety and bravery with strength, love, and embrace.
