On screen, he’s Buck — the fearless, big-hearted firefighter who risks it all to save lives. But off screen, 9-1-1 star Oliver Stark just proved he’s every bit the hero in real life too.
A recent viral video captured Oliver in a quiet but powerful moment on the rainy streets of Los Angeles. The actor was seen stopping to help a homeless man struggling without shelter. Without hesitation, Oliver took off his jacket and offered it to the man — along with a few comforting words.
“He didn’t make a scene,” a witness said. “He just did it — pure kindness, no cameras, no show. It was beautiful.”
Oliver has long been open about using his platform for good. In past interviews, he’s said: “Fame gives you a voice — and I want mine to make someone’s day better.” He actively supports mental health initiatives and animal welfare, and often uses social media to amplify messages of compassion and awareness.
While 9-1-1 fans admire Buck’s bravery on screen, it’s Oliver’s quiet generosity off screen that’s earning him even more love. In a world full of noise, he chose kindness — and people noticed.
