A man in China having pre-wedding photos taken with his fiancée near a lake is being hailed as a hero after jumping into the water to save a drowning teenage girl.
The man’s fiancée, surnamed Sun, said that while they were taking pre-wedding photos in Fuyang, in Anhui province, eastern China, on March 14, their make-up artist noticed a person struggling in the water nearby, The Paper reported.
Sun immediately asked her fiancé and the photographer to help the girl in the water.
“My fiancé jumped into the water purely out of instinct. He didn’t think much but just wanted to save the drowning person. Actually, he is not very good at swimming and hasn’t swum for a few years,” Sun said.
When her fiancé and the photographer reached the girl, she was floating on the water’s surface.
