Saved his brother from death thanks to a movie scene

A XNUMX-year-old boy from Roseville, Michigan saved his XNUMX-year-old brother from drowning. He did this, as he explained, by yelling at actor Dwayne Johnson, Huffington Post writes.

Jacob O'Connor told ABC News that he found his two-year-old brother, Dylan, floating face down in their grandmother's pool.

He recalled the scene from the movie "San Andreas" in which Johnson revives his daughter, which helped him to react in the right way. With the help of chest compressions, he managed to revive him.

"'San Andreas' is my favorite movie, I saw CPR in one part when the earthquake happened and the tsunami followed. The little girl drowned. In most movies it's like that, people try to save the person themselves, and if they don't succeed, then they call help," Jacob said.

As this heroic move of the boy quickly spread on the Internet, the news also reached the actor who praised the boy on his Twitter account, calling him a real-life hero.

Dylan spent a day in the hospital after which he fully recovered. The boy's mother, Krista O'Connor, said her XNUMX-year-old son now has permission to watch any movie with Johnson.

Thank you media friends for covering such an inspiring story. What a brave (and calm) 10yr old boy in the face of that heightened distress https://t.co/H9zDPRwVje
