Today will be a day of sore heads for many Australians who revelled in the Melbourne Cup on Tuesday.

It's a yearly event where people take the afternoon off work to get really drunk in the name of a somewhat controversial horse race.

But an unnamed woman who interrupted a live television cross on Channel Nine, could be the hero of all Melbourne Cup partiers. After her friends find a wallet on the ground, she demands the reporter help her hand it in immediately. Somebody's might need that three dollars that's inside.

"He needs to find the owner. He needs to do the right thing!" the woman demands of the reporter, as she's hauled off by her friends.

Oh, if only the rest of us were so altruistic.
