New York Has A Real Superhero Couple

Life in the 21st century can be very hard. The money, the tempo, the stress can really get to us, and if that’s not enough, we always have the mass media to tell us about something terrifying that happened half a planet away from us. It seems like everyday it gets harder and harder to enjoy the little things in life and just genuinely relax. But sometimes, there are stories like this one that makes us feel grateful to be human, grateful to be kind and grateful to have the ability to help others.Show more

It is really easy to succumb to the pressure of society. It’s easier to not care at all about what is right and what is moral when you’re struggling for a piece of bread to get you through tomorrow. Having no shelter and living in 2018 BC without water and electricity is not something everyone can bear. It takes a lot of resilience and a bit of help from others to keep you on the right track.

We often see movies where there is that one person in the city who is trying their best to keep these people’s spirits lifted. They protect them from harm and from the evils lurking on every corner, they give them food and warmth and act as a shadow that watches their every step.

Each and everyone of us has grown up with one of these imaginary superheroes as idols. We all want to be like them but we have long accepted the fact that it can’t be done and it can never be real. After all, we don’t own a fortune our parents left us, nor do we have a cave where we can keep all of those fancy gadgets. We haven’t fallen to earth from outer space (that we know of) and we didn’t get bitten by a radioactive spider. We can’t just go and start jumping off of buildings and barging in other people’s homes unannounced. We just have to accept the fact that there are some rules of society and some laws that prevent us from going on this kind of an endeavor. Luckily for the people of New York, some residents have decided not to follow society’s rules and have actually become the real protectors of the city.

Meet the world’s first real life superhero couple - who patrol New York's streets confronting criminals and helping the needy. When Victoria’s Secret manager Nicole Lund’s love interest Chris Pollak claimed he was a superhero, she had no idea he was being serious. Now the crime-fighting duo patrol side-by-side across New York, with Nicole, 27, dressed as her leather-clad alter ego ‘Nykita’, and Chris, 33, as action man ‘Dark Guardian’. Confronting drug dealers has seen the couple threatened with violence and even death threats but the pair are determined to carry on making the streets a safer place.
