French parachutist Vincent Reffet would have been lost without street vendor Tsai Zong-yi during the World Games in Taiwan. Reffet dropped from the skies during competition but found himself blown outside the event venue before a medal-winning drop. That was when Tsai came to the rescue. On a scooter. “After realising that for three minutes no one had offered the athlete some help, Mr. Tsai decided to approach him and offered him a ride on his scooter to bring him back to the venue,” event organisers said in a statement on Friday. “He knew some shortcuts, so he also made sure that Vincent Reffet was back as fast as possible.
