An Australian rescuer put his own life on the line Friday when he dove into raging floodwaters to save a struggling teen.
An unnamed 14-year-old was playing in a creek in Rockhampton, Queensland with a friend when he lost his footing and was swept up in the flash flood, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation reports. As the boy clung to a tree, a rescuer dove in, brought him to safety, but then the hero was dragged more than 300 feet downstream, according to Courier Mail.
