Actor Gerald Anderson is a Superhero in Real Life

ABS-CBN talent actor Gerald Anderson is a superhero not only on television, but also in real life. As one of the concerned citizens, Gerald Anderson helped his neighbors during Typhoon Ondoy.

Dr. Divina Gracia Rosales-Murao a neighbor of Gerald in Vista Real Classica, Quezon City witnessed the heroic act by the Kapamilya actor and his brother. She said both Gerald and his brother Kenneth were already visible in the area to check if their neighbors are doing okay.

“Gerald and company tied ropes over trees para maging guide nila since the house in front of us is getting more damaged,” narrates the doctor. “They really tried to cross the raging waters but it was a little difficult na.They were nowhere in sight na rin since I also have to check on our place.”

Undeterred by the increasing current, Gerald looked for help. Before dark, he arrived with Cesar Montano and Bayani Agbayani, who lived a few blocks away. By this time, the water level had risen even higher, but the group managed to scramble up Dr. Divina’s wall to ask if she needed assistance in evacuating.

“Actually we are still okay pa,” explained Dr. Divina. “They were asking if we plan to evacuate since they saw we have kids inside the house. Actually mas concern ko was my brother who lives in Queensland Street just a few houses away from director Jun Flores and Jean Garcia.”

As it turned out, that part of the village was more damaged, and the current, stronger. Gerald himself told Dr. Divina that they had a hard time getting through. Then, they again left for help and returned in an hour, this time with a rescue team that would eventually check on the other homes in need of rescue and food.

For the doctor, the celebrity glitz that Gerald’s fans see in him in was not present at all. In its place was a wet, cold and dirty person who chose to disregard personal safety to make sure that his neighbors were out of harm’s way.

“I give compliments to Gerald that he gave his own self, his time, his concerns to check on his neighbors,” said Dr. Divine, “including me and my family. He tried to be the ordinary person he is…just like us—just like everyone else with the humanitarian heart.”
