2. It's all from Heaven
Joe ,   London, UK   (05.23.12)
Well done, Nadav! You never know what would or could have happened to you, should you have managed to reach the top. G-d had different and even better, well meaning plans for you... and..who knows, perhaps you will climb it again and reach the top. At least you know the way! Kol Hakavod!
3. Erdogan should learn from this hero.
robert renders ,   belgium   (05.23.12)
4. This is a real hero!
Eli ,   Jerusalem   (05.23.12)
Nadav did an amazing thing and may G-d reward him for it. I hope he can continue to climb and become a great attorney as well. He was obviously raised well by his parents. He shows morality and compassion and a great heart. Kol hakavode!
5. Nadav
Clive ,   London   (05.23.12)
Do not worry Nadiv. To have saved a life is to reach the highest summit of all. Nothing compares, not even Everest, which is just a big rock and it's not going anywhere soon... Kol ha Kavod!
6. Mrs.Dorit & Mr. Yoram
Obsessive ,   Turkey   (05.23.12)
You are very lucky. I've lost my words. NAADAAAAV! you the family, ancestor, lineage, flesh and blood, SON OF PROPHETS. Your HASHEM in my HASHEM. World is standing because of the FAITH in your heart. May ALLAH bless your family and Israel.
7. Nadav did reach the highest summit
Silky ,   Silkeborg, Denmark   (05.23.12)
saving a life. Everything else pales in comparison.
8. This is what Israel does daily!
Farhad ,   Iran   (05.23.12)
Israel daily risks its citizens to bring well-being to foreigners. It is who the Jewish people are. It is in our nature to help people in need. We send peaceful missions not "terrorist flotillas." Mazal Tov, Nadav! You make the whole Jewish world proud!
9. reach the summit
eli ,   bet shemesh   (05.23.12)
Excuse me, you certainly did reach the "summit". "Who is like you Israel" kol hakavod
10. G-d bless them both
Amichai ,   Huntsville, US   (05.23.12)
I love to read stories of heroism and compassion in this world filled with so much hate and animosity. #9 Eli - You are most certainly correct in your assessment.
11. True to his name - Nadav!

ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (05.23.12)
13. Awesome story
sk ,   USA   (05.23.12)
This is awesome! May God bless Nadav Ben-Yehuda and give him many more great accomplishments in his lifetime. P.S. Hope that idiot Erdogan gets this news into his moronic head.
14. The Summit of God's Wishes
real vision ,   usa   (05.23.12)
Bless this man. He has proven he is from GOD'S chosen people and has done GOD'S bidding. Nothing compares with helping humanity
15. not surprising since Israel is about peace and Justice
k ,   US   (05.23.12)
if it had been a Jew who was hurt and some Muslims or others saw him laying there they would probably have killed him and taken his possessions but it does not surprise me to see this story
16. Nadav did reach
Timo Kiihtelys ,   Hameenlinna, Finland   (05.23.12)
Indeed, Silky. You got it right, everything else pales in comparison.Feeling great being a friend of Israel. Finland greeting!
17. He did reach the top!
rivkah f. ,   Jerusalem   (05.23.12)
Nadav reached the summit. The story reminds me of the Hasidic tale of the Rabbi of Nemerov who was rumored to have gone to heaven on the eve of Yom KIppur. A doubter followed him on that day and the rabbi went to the forest to light the furnace and take care of an indigent old woman. When the doubter was later asked whether the Rabbi went to heaven, he said no, he went even higher. So did Nadav. May God bless him and restore his health.
18. Looser!
Jason white ,   Ra'anana Israel   (05.23.12)
U should have let him die! He would have done same for u!! Sorry dude

20. Nadav, people like you make me proud to be a Jew.

21. #18 - Jason
Amichai ,   Huntsville, US   (05.23.12)
You should just change your screen name on here now. We all know you're just an instigator & a troll.
22. #18
Anna ,   Montreal, Canada   (05.23.12)
You are definitely an impostor, and didn't grew-up within Jewish values. Are you human?
23. Jason white @ 18, actually you are the one who is a loser.
leo ,   usa   (05.23.12)
Nadav did it for himself first of all.
24. Nadav: His name says it all.
Shimon ,   Cincinnati, USA   (05.23.12)
Nadav, mountain peaks are fine, but human peaks mean so much more. You attained the latter. You are a mensch!
25. To # 18 Jason
Jose FARIAS ,   Sao Paulo - Brasil   (05.23.12)
Nadav is a very jew. Torah commands us to give a hand to the fallen enemy. I supposed not every turk is our enemy. It doesn't concern Nadav ask if the man would do the same, but obey to Torah and make the mankind higher.

Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (05.23.12)
It seems like every nice story has to have at least one insensitive person to darken it. What is your problem?
27. Jason White has been posting sick things here for years....
(05.23.12)
Only he has moved from Afula.
28. B"H for Nadav and also his parents who taught him his values

The Jewish people will survive forever because of the value of their character.
29. Nadav - Our True Hero
Doris Jaffe ,   San Diego, CA   (05.23.12)
Kol hakavod for your successful rescue of a fellow climber. We are all very proud of you. May Hashem bless you with a long life of good health, sustenance, and inner tranquility. Mazel tov to your parents for raising a mensch.
30. # Jason white it is obvious that you have no Jewish value or
Rachel ,   US   (05.23.12)
moral or any human moral. You need your head and heart examined. Nodav is a hero and did the right thing. Brovo to Nadav, and I wish him speedy recovery of his fingers!!!
