The superhero kids who saved their father from drowning are trending.
The boys used CPR procedures they had seen in the movies and other platforms to help their dad. According to the kids they said When Brad Hassig passed out while underwater, his sons, Christian and Bridon, sprang into action, using CPR strategies they discovered in films to rescue their dad.
A father from Alabama is in praise and thanking God after his twin sons’ quick thinking helped save his life last month. Brad Hassig was doing underwater meditation exercises at his home swimming pool, something he said he’d done numerous times before. The kid’s father said We were just swimming, the boys were having fun. I like to do just some calming, breathing exercises in the waters, which entails just sitting underwater,” Hassig told the reporter I was saying the Lord’s Prayer. And I just, I don’t ever remember finishing it.
Hassig’s 10-year-old twin sons Bridon and Christian, as well as an 11-year-old neighbor named Sam, were in the pool with him, enjoying the water when they detected something was wrong with their father, who had turned a bluish color. They quickly sprung into action, pulling their 185-pound father above water and toward the side of the pool.
Although the boys had no proper CPR training, they recognized what they had seen in the films, including in early ’90s films “Hook” and “The Sandlot.” They started chest contractions and mouth-to-mouth and Christian and Sam also ran for help after the boys couldn’t open their dad’s iPhone. When Hassig came to, he said he heard his sons calling out to him.
Since the happening, Hassig has told others to never swim alone and the family urges individuals to learn how to do CPR. They’re preparing a local, community-wide CPR event for kids and adults to get reasonable exercise.
