What a hero! I also think it's very important what the father said that he just froze, a very common shock reaction! So glad the young man stepped in and that the little boy was ok! Good on the father and mother for giving the young man the thanks that ge deserved!

The thing is when it is your child you enter shock. Like the dad said

@bsoz9759 2 жыл бұрын

When a couple is expecting a baby, some (most?) take a birthing class. They teach the expectant mom how to breathe during contractions, what the dad can do to help. They should also teach infant and child CPR. If a situation arises, the parents would at the very least know to call 911 and begin chest compressions. Once the 911 operator is on the phone, he/she could further instruct, rather than start from scratch. BTW, I've been saying this for years. I now tell my patients (I'm a physical therapist), to learn CPR if they spend any time with their grandchildren and to inform their adult children to take classes as well.

Ryan ,I know just hear what did saving boy and I,m not even your family member but I,m very very proud of you too. That was so very very wonderful that you did that .

@vyrusnationgaming1999 3 жыл бұрын

This is why everyone should sign up for a first aid and CPR class in their area. There are plenty of places that teach it. Hospitals, fire stations. Hell you could learn how to do it on youtube. It helps to have a dummy to practice on though.

... His parents should have been watching him! I understand why there not like hawks watching him. Perhaps I seem a little harsh, but since a young age I have been taught to be careful around water. This is largely due to my dad's cousin drowning when he was three.

No, mistakes happen. The child slipped out his swimming vest ....maybe the pressure of the water. But it's not like the parents threw him in the water without a vest. Anyway, thank God Ryan was there. ❤
