re: Have you ever saved anyone from certain death?

Yes, and not that infrequently, but I almost never think about it in the moment, and rarely afterward unless someone mentions it, such as now. It is really interesting to me though to reflect on it like that. I had a friend who I took care of her and her family and she owned an ice cream shop. She used to jokingly say, "for you that's just like what scooping ice cream is for me". Not to be terribly reductive, but she was right. I have a skill set that affords me both the ability and the opportunity to do such things, and really all I have to do is execute. And, if I'm being totally honest, much of the time if it were not me, someone else who does what I do could do the same thing, which makes it less special I suppose, but perhaps even more interesting to discuss.
