Terrorists keep trying their best to break the world peace in shambles and crush our faith in humanity, but people have given examples proving that anything cannot break our brave and unshakable spirit.
A day before the Paris attacks that left at least 120 dead and the country in lockdown, suicide bombings in Beirut on Thursday left 43 dead and 239 wounded. Beirut resident Adel Termos jumped on the suicide bomber, causing him to explode before he could get deep enough into the crowd.

He was out with his young daughter when he heard the first blast as the terror group launched a devastating attack in the city’s Burj al-Barajneh district on Thursday.
The father noticed the second suicide bomber as he began to move towards crowd. He then gave his life by jumping on the terrorist, causing his bomb to detonate before he could get further into the crowd.
It was initially thought Adel’s young daughter died, but pictures circulating on social media suggest she has survived.
Blogger and physician Elie Fares, who lives in Beirut said: “He tackled him to the ground, causing the second suicide bomber to detonate There are many many families, hundreds of families probably, who owe their completeness to his sacrifice.”
A lot of people paid tribute to Termos on Twitter to let the world know how valued his sacrifice is.
