Social media users are praising a young delivery worker for coming to the rescue of an elderly man struggling to cross a busy street this week.

The senior had slowly been making his way through a busy intersection in Singapore when the traffic light turned green.

Thankfully, a nearby DHL driver saw that the man had only made it halfway across the road, and he immediately pulled his van over to the side of the road and rushed to the old man's side.

At first, the driver can be seen trying to help the man use his walker – but when they failed to make much progress, the driver simply gave the older man a piggyback ride to the other side of the street.

The sweet moment was captured on video by Hambali Leonardi as he was watching the event unfold from his car.

In addition to the DHL driver being hailed as a "hero" and "employee of the year", social media viewers are also offering to give him money as a reward for his good deed.
