Good Samaritan gives the shirt off his back to help a homeless man

A video showing a man giving the shirt off his back to another man who was shivering on a Brooklyn-bound A train in New York City has gone viral.

The act of kindness was caught on camera and shared to Facebook by Lazaro Noscalo, who told the New York Daily News the man had no shirt on and was shivering. The Good Samaritan gave his t-shirt and hat to help his fellow traveller, as temperatures in the city had plunged to below zero.

The clip has been viewed on Facebook over 9 million times and received over 200,000 shares.

It’s amazing how just one random act of kindness can restore our faith in the human race.
