LAS VEGAS, Nevada --
With gunfire hailing down on thousands attending an outdoor music festival on the Las Vegas Strip, chaos reigned over what would become the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history.
But the terror gave rise to heroes who urgently helped those who were wounded in the ordeal. Ordinary people became paramedics. 急救医士
\were so many people, just normal citizens, doctors, cops, paramedics, nurses, just off-duty. Everyone's just communicating and working together,\said a festival-goer Vanessa. \was completely horrible, but it was absolutely amazing to see all the people come together.\
One man's story is just a small fraction of what people did to get the wounded out of harm's way.
\were a lot of people that were selfless and stayed behind with people,\
The retired teacher braved gunfire and used his shirt to stop bleeding of his friend who had been shot three times. They then hid under the stage.

It took an army of strangers to rush the injured to first responders. Cronk said he along with other able-bodied festival-goers carried their wounded person to a regular civilian pickup truck that had three injured people already in it.
One of those four wounded died, but Cronk's best friend survived.

So far, more than 400 people were hospitalized from the festival shooting.

These are the heroes of the Las Vegas shooting — from a Marine who commandeered a truck to a husband who took a bullet for his wife

As bullets rained down on a country music festival in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Sunday night, people stepped up to protect total strangers and the ones they love.
Tales of heroism have emerged in the aftermath of the Las Vegas mass shooting, which left 59 people dead and more than 500 injured. Here are some of the inspiring stories.
Jack Beaton died protecting his high-school sweetheart.
Jack Beaton and his wife, Laurie.
Jack and Laurie Beaton attended the Route 91 Harvest festival in Las Vegas to celebrate their 23rd wedding anniversary. They sat sipping beers and enjoying the concert on the grass.
Laurie posted to Facebook, \forward to 23 more.\
Less than an hour later, Laurie felt a bullet fly by her shoulder. Jerry Cook, Laurie's father, recalled a conversation with her in an interview with the Los Angeles Times.
\got on top of Laurie to protect her. He laid on top of her and said, 'Laurie, I love you.' She said, 'I love you, too,' and boom — he got hit. I don't know how many times,\
Rescue workers ushered Laurie and others members of her group to safety. Jack had already been removed from the scene when she returned looking for his body.
Jack, 54, leaves behind two children, Delaney and Jake.
Marine veteran Taylor Winston stole a truck and drove dozens of people to the hospital.

When Stephen Paddock fired on a country music festival, Taylor Winston didn't run away. The 29-year-old marine veteran knew he had to help. \started scattering and screaming and that's when we knew something real was happening,\Winston told CBS. He described the scene as a \war zone.\
Winston, who served two tours in the Iraq War, helped toss people over a fence to get to safety. He then raced to a field of trucks parked nearby. The first one he checked had the keys in it.
He texted his friends who had set up a makeshift hospital far from the gunfire to bring over some victims, he told CNN. They squeezed into the back of the truck and the backseat.
After dropping people off at a hospital, Winston turned around for a second trip. By the end of the night, he and his friends had transported around two-dozen people to the hospital.
Jacob Shamsian contributed reporting to this post.
Jonathan Smith rushed about 30 people to safety and took a bullet in the neck.
After a gunman opened fire on the crowd, some were too frightened to move. A quick-thinking father, Johnathan Smith, began shouting, \shooter, active shooter, let's go!\
He told all nine members of his extended family at the concert, as well as nearby strangers, to join hands and run. They moved as a human chain toward a handicapped parking area and hid behind several rows of cars, Smith recalled in an interview with The Washington Post.
The 30-year-old copy machine repairmain spotted a few young girls who weren't fully covered. He stood up to warn them to get down. It was then that a bullet struck him in the neck.
A Washington Post reporter shared a photo of Smith on Twitter, and it has since gone viral.
\\life coming to a country festival.\
Dawn-Marie Gray and Kevin Gray stayed behind to save others.

When Dawn-Marie Gray and her husband, Kevin, won tickets to the Route 91 Harvest festival through a Portland radio station, they could never have known it would be one of the most harrowing events of their lives. The couple took shelter in a VIP area during the shooting.
\USA Today. \of bodies.\
Dawn-Marie, who worked as a paramedic急救医士for about seven years, knew that local paramedics would not be admitted entry until the area was deemed safe. She and her husband turned to the wounded, providing CPR, making tourniquets止血带, and checking for pulses on lifeless bodies. The couple worked together to load victims into cars en route to the hospital.
\do with being a hero,\said. \a human being.\

told CNN. \that were just behind us and I tried to tuck her in close to the end so
she was as protected as possible.\Blayke.
They both took refuge in the nearby Tropicana hotel.
\daughter, my friends, and I,\Krygier wrote in a Facebook post in the early hours of Monday morning.

Like many concertgoers at the Route 91 Harvest festival, Ledbetter heard the sound of popping and figured it was fireworks. When he saw people drop to the ground, his instincts kicked in (take effect).
\echo回声, it sounded like it was coming from everywhere and you didn't know which way to run,\ABC News.
Once he led his brother, who was shot and injured, and his wife to safety in a VIP area of the concert, Ledbetter turned his attention to the wounded. He told ABC News he compressed someone's shoulder injury, wrapped a leg, and put a makeshift tourniquet on a teenage girl.
\some random guy, I said, 'I need your shirt,'\Ledbetter recalled, who is now a mortgage broker and a resident of Las Vegas. \gave me the flannel off his back.\
Lindsay Lee Padgett turned her truck into a makeshift ambulance.
Lindsay Lee Padgett and Mike Jay.Courtesy of Lindsay Lee Padgett Lindsay Lee Padgett was sitting in the passenger seat of her truck, watching people care for the injured, when a man approached her window. \now, we need you truck,\he said. \just need to get people over to the hospital, OK?\
\
Padgett and her fiance, Mike Jay, piled five wounded victims and five others who were caring for the injured into the back of the truck. One man who was shot in the back died.
\were just trying to get people to the hospital. We got halfway there, and as we were getting on the freeway, we saw an ambulance stopped, so we went over and they started taking the most critical people and putting them in the ambulance,\ABC News.
The couple drove the other victims and their companions to the hospital. A video of the incident which Padgett shared to Facebook has over 2.7 million views.
A teenager shot in the leg said a stranger whisked her to safety.

Addison Short and a friend tried to run for cover when they heard the sounds of gunfire. But Short's knee buckled, and she realized she had been shot. Blood poured from her leg.
\recalled crying out during an interview with CNN.
A good Samaritan, who she did not know, wrapped her leg in a tourniquet and threw her over his shoulder. The man carried Short to a taxi driving nearby, and she was treated at a hospital.
Tom McIntosh, who was shot in the leg, reunited with his hero a few days after the shooting.

Tom McIntosh said he wouldn't have made it out of the festival alive if it weren't for a stranger who stopped to care for him. McIntosh lay bleeding from the leg in the bed of a pick-up truck. James Lawson, who serves in the US Army Reserve, was fleeing the active-shooter scene when he passed by a truck and noticed that a tourniquet around McIntosh's leg was tied incorrectly.
\was the completely wrong spot,'' Lawson told TODAY. \walked up there and he was actively bleeding, so I adjusted the belt, got it up where it should be, tightened it down.\
Lawson stayed with McIntosh, consoling him, until a different truck ferried them both to the hospital. A bullet is still lodged in McIntosh's leg, but he is expected to make a full recovery.
\was dozens and dozens of other concertgoers doing the same thing,'' Lawson said of his heroic act. \couldn't leave anybody behind, they were running back towards the fire to help more people. There's got to be hundreds of stories like this one.\
