Homeless Man Wins Lottery
This video went viral the moment it was uploaded because of the motive behind it. YouTube sensation Magic of Rahat, is known for his various pranks and antics. He noticed a homeless man named Eric, who had been hanging out around a shopping center close to his home. He asked around the neighborhood and the people informed him the homeless man was nice and respectable. One day, he decides to give Eric a losing lottery ticket, and took him to the store to see how much the lottery ticket valued. So the two head to the store, and Eric was shocked to hear that the ticket is a $1000 winner. Eric proceeded to break down because he was overwhelmed with emotion. He never knew such a huge blessing could happen to him. He even offered to share the earnings but the prankster told him to keep the money. This started out as a potential prank but instead ended with laughter and joyful tears. Rahat set up a fund account for Eric, with a goal of $20,000 to help Eric get back on his feet. The generous donations surpassed $35,000. This video is effective because it touched many people hearts and it shows there are still remarkable people in this world. The video that I linked to this is titled Homeless Man Returns Diamond ring, Rewarded 86,000 for Good Deed. Both videos are effective because in today's society, people still look down on the homeless. In these two cases, both men are homeless, but have good hearts and were rewarded generously.
