Man flees London attack with beer in hand (Wow)

A young man was pictured with a pint of beer in his hand when he was fleeing Saturday’s terrorist attacks in London and since then has become something of an internet hero.


The photo, which has been retweeted more than 28,000 times, features the man fleeing from the scene with a pint of beer in hand. 

For some, the photo provided a moment of profoundly dark comedy on a day otherwise entirely colored by tragedy.

Howard Mannella, who posted a photo of the tweet, wrote.

“People fleeing #LondonBridge but the bloke on the right isn’t spilling a drop. God Bless the Brits!” 

People couldn’t help but feel a little twinge of pride upon seeing a fellow Londoner refuse to leave his beer behind, despite the danger around him.

 

Seven people were killed in the London Bridge terror attack and 48 others are being treated for injuries.
