Brothers rescue man from Sinking Car

Two college age brothers were on the way to a family dinner at their sister's house with their parents when they saw a car in the middle of the lake and without hesitating they jumped out of the car and into the lake.  The boys soon realized that the lake was deep and freezing.  The car was in the middle of the lake and the Boys tried to break open the windows but failed.  One brother swam back to the shore and grabbed a tire iron and swam back.  That worked on the window, and just in time because the car began to sink under the water.  The boys managed to grab the 70 year old driver before the car sunk.  The man was in shock and by the time the boys got back to the shore they were freezing and exhausted.  They were also bleeding from where they attempted to break the windows.  They were bandaged by paramedics and continued on to dinner, where they showed up wet, freezing, and bloodied with a great story.  These boys are true heros.  Link.

  • thats cool. its not everyday someone jumps in a freezing lake to save lives of total strangers.
  • that is seriously amazing. it's too bad everybody doesn't act like that.
  • This is a very great story! Once, my mom and I slid perpendicular to the curb on Cyclone Avenue in the middle of all of the four lanes! (two weeks ago) and not one person pulled over to help us.These people are true citizens. Harlan needs to be improved! Not just KIDS!
  • i am impressed. it takes guts to swim in freezing water. very dangerous.
  • One day I was taking a stroll through Antartica when all of a sudden I saw this women dragged underwater by a killerwhale so I jumped in the water and swam down thousands of feet chasing this rogue whale through the atlantic. Finally half an hour later my breath started to get low so i decided to end it i caught the whale by its tail threw it onto land. Killed by taking off its head. But the whale had eaten the girl so I degutted the whale and got her she thanked and said she owed me her life I said just another day in the life of josh pauley. But as she was walking away a giant 500 pound seagull picked her up and ate her in one gulp.
  • Once I went to the depths of the African jungles in attempt to take photos of the wildlife for a project I was working on at Oxford University. All seemed well until I heard shrieks of terror. I ran towards the sources of the screams and I found two women, (Perfect 10's might I add), backed up against a wall of trees and a lion inching towards them. Without hesitation, I grabbed my trusty boomarang and tossed it at the lion...and missed. As the lion laughed at my inferior throwing arm, the boomarang came back and hit the lion in the head, knocking him out. I shot the lion with my dart gun filled with rattlesnake venom (A story for a different time), finishing him off. I had saved the day!!!!

    The girls were then eaten by a pack of stray elephants.
  • wow, this is amazing. those brothers are incredible, that man should be very greatful
  • Oh yeah well one time I saw this bus fall into a volcano filled with lava and it was full of young innocent children. I jumped in the lava and broke open a window with my head. Then I put all the children and the bus driver pn my back and swam through the lava and climbed out of the volcano. Then as I climbing over the top of the volcano a mighty wind came and blew every single kid and the bus driver back into the lava and they died horrible deaths. The End. Dont you love happy endings?
  • That was very nice of them. But was the car floating on top of the lake?
  • I like this alot. Shows how much people care for others.
