My favourite story was when he got dragged out of the icy water onto a passing lifeboat by two dishy sailors after the biggly ship hit an iceberg
Trump claims he was basically lifted out of the rubble on 9/11: "Two fireman, big strong guys, they grabbed me under the arms -- 'got to get our of here!' -- and they literally lifted me up, and they started running with me."
