Viral Video: In China's Henan area, a simple act of creativity by one of the school bus staff has won the heart of the internet and warmed the hearts of millions. When it was raining one morning, the water flooded at a point near a school bus station, making it very difficult for kids to climb onto the bus with dry shoes and socks.
Instead of making the children walk through the dirty puddle water, the school bus operator thought quickly. He utilised a flatbed cart as an impromptu transport cart to take the children across the puddle. On the CCTV footage, the personnel are seen assisting one of the younger students onto the cart, slowly towing it over the flooded section, and leading the child with dry feet onto the bus.
The viral video is a reminder that answers to everyday problems do not always involve high-tech tools and machinery—sometimes, all one needs is imagination, compassion, and openness to doing things differently. What would have been a frustrating, wet morning otherwise turned out to be a model for problem-solving and kindness.
