Have you ever had the urge to act on a whim, such as taking a lone
nighttime stroll or dining at a place you haven't been in years? There are
many different reasons why people act erratically. Perhaps they were just
feeling like performing them, or perhaps they just wanted to take a stroll
down memory lane. However, there are instances when people act erratically
knowing that these are experiences they might never have again. For someone
who made the most of her life, that statement couldn't be more
accurate.
Albina Foisy, 101, of the British Columbian hamlet of Lillooet won the
hearts of many people in November 2015 by bringing out the kid in her,
despite the fact that she had already lived a life that exceeded a century
at the time.
Her response on a snowy walk is among the finest things you will likely
ever witness in a centenarian. Not only was she content, but she was
ecstatic.
As of 2022, a video of her that her son Armand posted on Facebook has
accumulated 10 million views.
Albina is seen making a snowball in the video and grinning and giggling.
She flung it as hard as she could after forming one. Albina remarked,
"Playing in the snow is kind of fun."
Armand captioned the video, saying, "This is evidence that you can live a
hundred years if you find pure joy in the small things."
Armand said that when it was pouring in Lillooet, there was an unexpected
snowfall, which is unusual for their location. So he and his mother made the
decision to see if any traffic was approaching.
About three kilometers out of town, I made a turn with the automobile.
However, the door swings open, and mom comes out before we can go back on
the road, Armand said in the video.
"It's a good idea to have the camera close by for such precious moments
when your mother is 101 years old. This is among those," he remarked.
Albina could only speak in shock and delight when she watched herself on
television. Armand also got the opportunity to record the priceless event.
That's who I am, exactly! Oh no, murmured Albina.
Albina was shocked to learn that she had made the news, as are most common
people when they see themselves on television.
"It's unbelievable that I'm a celebrity, and I'm unaware of it," Albina
stated during an interview with Global News.
Regarding his mother's response, Armand told CBC, "To say that she is
absolutely thrilled and amazed is a total understatement."
Armand said his mother had always been quite cute. Armand told ABC News,
"It was one of those innocent moments that come around fairly often with my
mother."
Albina is not in the headlines at the moment, although Armand last released
a video of them together on his birthday in 2019.
Even though it had been years since Albina's video was initially posted
online, some users claimed they simply couldn't stop viewing it. "This makes
me grin no matter how many times I view it. "She was truly a remarkable
woman," a commenter on Armand's video said.
"What a delight. Another said, "I'm happy you were able to capture this
wonderful time with your mother.
Even if others might not agree, Armand did a wonderful job capturing Albina
enjoying the snow in one of the most precious and memorable videos.
