STORMWARN 7 JP OPEN-CLIP

WEATHER-PHC

TEASE DEMO STORY OF THE NIGHT-2SHOT

YOU HAVE TO HAVE HEARD THIS PHRASE BEFORE -- CHIVALRY IS DEAD.

BUT 60 SECONDS AWAY --

WE HAVE PROOF IT MIGHT HAVE ACTUALLY DIED 150 YEARS AGO.

AND YOU'LL FIND THE EVIDENCE AT SEA --

EVERY TIME THERE'S A SHIPWRECK.

ABC EXTRA-CLIP

CHIVALRY'S DEAD-OC

IN TONIGHT'S A-B-C SEVEN EXTRA --

CHIVALRY MIGHT BE DEAD -- OR PERHAPS IT NEVER EVEN EXISTED AT ALL.

CHIVALRY'S DEAD-PKG

'nats of people talking in downtown fort myers'

AT A TABLE IN DOWNTOWN FORT MYERS,

TWO WOMEN NAMED SANDY AND A WOMAN NAMED BARB GAVE THE DIAGNOSIS --

CHIVALRY'S ALIVE, BUT ON LIVE SUPPORT.

11:22:03:00 "It's not dead -- not completely. It's just different."

DIFFERENT TO THEM -- WEAKER THAN GENERATIONS PAST.

11:30:11:00 "My parents beat it into us."

23:26:00 "I remember my grandmother saying the boy always opens the car door for you and shut it."

THAT'S ONE OF THE TENETS OF CHIVALRY.

AND HERE'S ANOTHER -- PROTECT THE WOMEN AND CHILDREN FIRST.

BUT NEW RESEARCH SHOWS -- WHEN SHIPWRECKS HAPPEN. 'WOMEN AND CHILDREN FIRST' IS NOT HAPPENING.

FROM 1852 TO 2011 -- *MEN* WERE TWICE AS LIKELY AS WOMEN TO SURVIVE A SHIPWRECK.

CHILDREN EVEN LESS LIKELY -- AS THOUGH A 'JUNGLE MENTALITY' REPLACED CHIVALRY.

5:22:00 "whatever you want to call it, chivalry, honor, courage -- it's a very unusual thing."

A THING SCOTT FARRELL TEACHES.

HE RUNS CHIVALRY TODAY -- AN OFF-SHOOT OF HIS HOBBY, RE-CREATING HISTORICAL BATTLES FROM MEDIEVAL TIMES. WHEN CHIVALRY WAS KING.

"it's the one thing from the battles farrell says applies today -- but he stresses this is not 'man protects woman.' Chivalry actually means the strong protects the weak -- whatever gender. Being chivalrous means your polite, your ethical, and you stand up for those who need help -- just like the knights."

"do you have to wear funny clothing and clanky armor for code of chivalry to apply to you."

FARRELL HOPES NOT.
