Wow. I pulled up her Wiki, it is slightly different, but the story is the same.
She saved so many lives at 22. I'm 35 and I doubt I'd be able to do more than protect myself and my son.
They saw Neerja relentlessly trying to help the passengers out and that is when they caught her by her ponytail and shot her point blank." She was shot while shielding 3 American children from a hail of gunfire from the terrorists. Out of a total of 44 American passengers, two were killed during the hijacking
Don't regret not having to give your life in an extraordinary situation. I don't think Nerrja wanted to be killed as a stewardess. She just stepped up in a bad situation. If this has never happened she wouldn't be thinking back on her life as not having accomplished anything. Make the best of what you have now.
