BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — A father from Alabama is counting his blessings 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.
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 noticed something was wrong with their dad, who had turned a bluish color. "They weigh, what 80, 80-some pounds around there, and I weigh 185 pounds. So they shouldn't have been able to physically do what they did," Hassig said."I mean everything just went as perfectly as it probably had to have."
Although the boys had no formal CPR training, they remembered what they had seen in the movies, including in early '90s films"Hook" and"The Sandlot."
