Talent shows are full of surprises and that is one of the reasons we get so addicted to them. We never know if that shy girl who’s trembling on the stage would be the next star, or if the boy who can’t wait to let his voice loose would get a pass for the next round. What we do know, however, is that some of the performances are so powerful they stay with us long after we see them.
When Christian Burrows took the stage of one of the most popular music talent shows, The X Factor, not many believed he would make many cry.
When Simon asked him what he prepared for them, Christian said he’d penned a song about the loss of his baby brother Nathan who passed away at just three months old.
“I’ve got a song that I wrote for my brother who passed away when I was only young,” he told Simon, who asked him if he was certain he wanted to perform such a personal and emotional song. Christian said he believed he was ready, but no one was prepared for what followed.

The lyrics of Thunder Buddy, which Christian performed in front of the entire nation, touched everyone’s heart.
Before his son saw the light of the day, Christian only performed it twice in his life; once for his mom and once for his dad.
He left the stage with four yeses and proud of his performance that left some of the judges in tears.

Following his appearance on the show, Christian spoke to Metro Online and shared the heartbreak his family suffered when his brother passed away. At the time, Christian was 2 and a half years old and although he doesn’t remember anything specifically, he said he couldn’t help but wonder what kind of relationship he and his late brother would have now.

If you spot a rubber band on your front door handle, you need to know the sick thing it means

Safeguarding ourselves and our loved ones is of utmost importance, particularly within the haven of our homes. Throughout history, homes have symbolized security, providing a sense of refuge for individuals and families.
The intrusion of burglaries and similar threats can shatter this sanctuary, making it crucial to stay informed about potential dangers.
Home security is a matter taken seriously by many, employing various measures such as guard dogs and exterior surveillance cameras to deter criminals. However, perpetrators constantly adapt to counter preventive measures, emphasizing the need for vigilance.
Kim Fleming Cernigliaro, a Texas woman, shared a chilling experience on Facebook in 2016, shedding light on a sinister tactic employed by criminals seeking unauthorized access to homes.
She recounted an incident where a persistent, almost pounding knock at her door raised suspicions. Choosing not to answer when alone, she later discovered a rubber band around her doorknob, a device used to hold the door ajar once the latch was unlocked.
The technique involves knocking loudly to prompt the homeowner to unlatch the door, allowing the criminals to force entry without waiting for the doorknob to turn.
Kim’s post served as a warning to others, and she reported the incident to the local sheriff, who confirmed its prevalence in the area.
This cautionary tale underscores the importance of staying alert to unfamiliar situations and employing caution, even within the perceived safety of our homes.
In an era where criminals constantly evolve their methods, awareness and proactive measures are key to ensuring our homes remain sanctuaries of security. Share this information to spread awareness and contribute to the safety of others.
