<p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/nicktheballoonatic/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Nick Rotondo</a>, MTA bus driver turned hero, became a 9/11 first responder when driving the M11 up Amsterdam Avenue around 9 am when a police officer pulled over his bus and commandeered his services. Without hesitation, Nick served New York City at the World Trade Center. Selflessly, he was transporting medical supplies and emergency healthcare workers to and from Ground Zero.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Covered in dust and filled with emotion, day after day, despite the eventual physiological and mental toll that it took on him, Nick continued to put others first. Although his life changed on that very day, he is still a positive person whose goal is to share joy for all those who are privy to his balloonatic creations with his own business which is one of his many talents.&nbsp;</p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> See <a style='color:grey;' target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href='https://acast.com/privacy'>acast.com/privacy</a> for privacy and opt-out information.</p>
