There was once a bachur who came to R’ Scheinberg and said to him that since R’ Scheinberg had so many pairs of tzitzis,could he have just have one of the ravs pair! R’ Scheinberg told him to come back in another year. He came back a year later and asked him again for a pair of tzitzis. And the bachur pulled out a bag for him to put the tzitzis into. R’ Scheinberg took off a pair of tzitzis and asked the bachur, “what are you going to do with this pair??”The bachur answered, ” I will wear it on Yom Kippur!”R’ Scheinberg took off another pair of tzitzis and said, ” what are you going to do with this pair?” The bachur answered, ” I will wear it on Rosh Hashana!”R’ Scheinberg took off one more pair and said, ” and what will you do with this pair??”The bachur answered, ” I”ll take off the tzitzis I’m wearing now, and wear this pair a whole year round!
Sometime after that, the boy was driving with 4 of his friends, and the car rolled over a cliff. The other 3 boys were killed, and he was the only one living, but he was very badly injured.The paramedics came, and they started taking care of him, and they noticed, that all the the parts of his body were bleeding and very badly wounded, except for one part. The entire part where he was wearing his tzitzis (he was wearing R’ Scheinberg’s tzitzis at the time) was not even touched at all from the accident!!! AMAZING!!!
