Who says video games are not good for children? Thanks to Mario Kart, a 10 year old child was able to take control of the vehicle in which were his grandmother and his younger brother. The first being fainted at the wheel, the boy was able to steer the car traveling at over 60 miles/h and save the lives of everyone.
This is not a story like no other. A 10 year old child was able to save the life of his grandmother and his younger brother by taking control of a vehicle. He said the ability to get behind the wheel was due to his ability to video the game Mario Kart.
"First of all, I wondered if it was a test!" said Gryffin Sanders to KUSA-TV, a news channel affiliated with the NBC network. Last Friday, in the state of Colorado in the United States, while he was in the car of his grandmother with his little brother, Gryffin had to take control of the car. Due to a heart attack suffered by his grandmother. 74 years old, Darlene Nestor - the grandmother - fainted on the steering wheel while she was talking. "I initially tried to wake her. I knew I had to do something. Then I took the wheel and I ran the car on the side," said the boy.
His little 4 year old brother and himself were afraid when this incident occurred. Especially as the vehicle was traveling at over 60 miles per hour and full traffic. "I just wanted to steer the car somewhere where traffic was absent," he said. Therefore Gryffin Sanders took the wheel from the place of death and deposited the car in the ditch on the side of the road.
When he explained the incident, Gryffin Sanders added that its responsiveness and flexibility were due to his ability to play Mario Kart. "I'm pretty good at this game" he said. While some attempt to discredit video games by claiming that they cause violence and other negative behavior, the case of this child is indeed the opposite.
