The video recorder picked him up just seconds after the bomb went off. The young teenager in a Celtic jersey is seen helping the stunned and injured to their feet. The dust and debris continue to fall and the camera moves away.
Just over two weeks on from those moments of unspeakable horror captured on amateur video, a former director of Celtic Football Club is searching for this young hero of Omagh.
For Mr Brian Dempsey, who recently established the Scottish-Irish Omagh fund, the young man is a potent symbol of the ties that bind Scotland and the whole of Ireland.
At the Humbert Summer School in Mayo nine days ago, the millionaire property developer announced that the proceeds from the first night of the Dublin run of the musical play, The Celtic Story, in the Gaiety Theatre, would be handed over to the Taoiseach, Mr Ahern, for the people of Omagh. The producers of the play, which tells the story of four generations of Irish emigrants to Glasgow, many from the North, have pledged a minimum donation of £50,000.
According to Mr Tom Cassidy, spokesman for Mr Dempsey, they want to identify the unknown Celtic supporter so he can personally hand over the cheque to the Taoiseach. Since Mr Dempsey established the fund, celebrities in Ireland and Scotland have said they intend to boost the fund by £100,000.
Bands such as U2, Wet Wet Wet and Simple Minds are understood to be in the early stages of organising a fund-raising gig to be held either in the Point Depot in Dublin or the Scottish Exhibition Conference Centre in Glasgow.
The Celtic Story, which has been playing to packed houses in Glasgow for the past six weeks, will begin its Dublin run tomorrow week. There is already talk of American interest in the play and a possible Broadway run.
Written by Dave Maclennan and David Anderson, it stars Jimmy Logan and Dorothy Paul. The play is produced by Eddie Crozier and was first performed 10 years ago for the centenary of Celtic FC.
It was revived in honour of Celtic's Premier League championship success last season. Mr Dempsey put up the £200,000 necessary for the play to be restaged.
The search for the young boy in the amateur video shot in the aftermath of the Omagh bomb continues. Celtic supporters' clubs across Northern Ireland - particularly in Omagh - are being contacted in an effort to locate him.
"We are hopeful that we will find him," said Mr Cassidy.
