Prisoner 119104: He Lost Everything to the Nazis, Then He Wrote the Book That Saved Millions.
Viktor Frankl, psychiatrist, survived Auschwitz, but his time as a prisoner was where he noticed a chilling pattern. Men didn't just die from starvation or sickness. They died from giving up.
His book, Man's Search for Meaning (written after the war), has now sold over 16 million copies.
More important than sales:
Countless people—facing disease, depression, and loss—have picked up this book in their darkest hour and found a reason to keep going.
Prisoner 119104 didn't just survive the Holocaust. He turned his suffering into a source of healing for the entire world. That's not just survival. That's victory over death itself.
Viktor Frankl gave us the ultimate truth about human resilience.

Wow, a real collectors item !
Friday arvo in 1985 = a case of throw downs from Coltton Liquor Barn for $9.99, then head off to Sweethearts at Cabramatta or Reactor One at Panthers ... ahhh ... those were the days
And some awesome trivia (maybe left-field Wests Tigers too) about the Cockroaches:
Members of the band the Cockroaches are also members of The Wiggles.
Anthony Field and Jeff Fatt were members of both the Cockroaches and the original lineup of The Wiggles.
Anthony's brothers, Paul and John Field, were also in The Cockroaches, and Paul later became the managing director of The Wiggles, while John wrote many of their songs.
