SOME GOOD PEOPLE ARE STILL OUT THERE! James Harrison: Australian Man With Special Blood Type Saves 2 Million BabiesWhen Australian man James Harrison was just 14 years old, he received a life-saving blood transfusion during an invasive chest surgery. Grateful for this gift, Harrison pledged to pay it forward by becoming a blood donor when he was old enough.
True to his word, after turning 18, he became a regular donor. Now, at 74 years old, he has donated blood an astounding 984 times. This alone would be an extraordinary feat, but Harrison's unique blood type makes his gift so special he's been called the man with the golden arm.
