Thomas Paterson, 22, was traveling down stream on his board in Ottawa, Canada, when he spotted a small furry animal stranded on a rock. As the waters rushed by, Thomas did something many people would never think to do. He completely went out of his way, above and beyond, to save the life of this helpless squirrel.
The video's description says, "Realizing the distressed critter had become trapped, kindhearted Thomas decided to comfort the animal, gain its trust and try and return it safely to the shore." This video had me on the edge of my seat — the music, the scenery, the rushing waters and the creature in need all create such a harrowing rescue!
Lucky squirrel… heroic man. These two were just destined to meet that fateful day! Bravo, Thomas!!
Please SHARE this awesome rescue!
