6 Incredible Things People have Done in the Name of Love
4. Married Nick Vujicic
Not many people would marry someone who doesn’t have any of his four limbs. Nick Vujicic is a famous Australian evangelist and motivational speaker who doesn’t have either hands or legs due to some health complications during birth. The world was stunned when a woman, Kanae Miyahara, married him. This instance shows such deep love for the other person.
5. Lived like cavemen for love
About five decades ago, a young 19 year old Chinese lad fell for a widowed lady who was a decade older than him. Such love wasn’t acceptable to the conservative small society of their Chinese village so Xu Zhaoqing and Liu Guojiang decided to flee and having nowhere else to go, they settled in a scenic cave and lived like cavemen. Such was the love of this man for his woman that he carved out 6000 steps from the base of the mountain leading to the cave with just a chisel.
6. Given up the royal throne
In the late 1930s, the world was witness to a love so stirring that a king was ready to give up his throne for spending his life with the woman he loved. King Edward XIII of Britain fell hard for Wallis Simpson, a twice divorced American socialite. Such a marriage was however deemed to be scandalous for the royal family so the new king abdicated his throne for his love. So inspired was pop star Madonna with this romantic tale that she made a movie based on this moving story.
