Live broadcast, July 17 -today, Yang Yi, a well-known basketball commentator, posted a video of himself interviewing Butler on his personal microblog.
Yang Yi told Butler a News: “Recently there was a flight from Beijing to Shanghai. The plane encountered a very strong airflow and suddenly dropped several hundred meters in the air. People were lifted up and cried loudly. Yesterday I watched the news and found a professional fighter helping the crew to appease passengers on the plane. When the plane landed safely, he led everyone to applaud the crew. He was Li Jingliang.”
Butler was surprised and said, “Wow, that’s special. If this happened to me, I would be one of them crying. I was afraid of flying. He had to hold me and rub my back. You are really great, brother. Playing basketball is easy, but comfort those who are afraid (not easy). Basketball is a job in a sense. Caring for others is much more important than work. That moment is a real critical moment. I really admire what you have done.”
Li Jingliang is a famous comprehensive fighting player in our country. The Air China CA1524 flight he took on July 10 had a serious turbulence during the flight.
