The final wish of Darrell “Plant” Thomas, a 58-year-old businessman known for his generosity, was fulfilled by his family. To drop 5,000 dollars and rose petals from a helicopter over those attending his farewell.
The images show bills falling from the sky while dozens of people run to collect them. Traffic stopped for several minutes and the scene quickly went viral. But the most striking thing is that, despite the money flying everywhere, there were no fights or chaos.
Relatives said it was his “final blessing” for the community. Police temporarily closed the road to ensure safety.
