Thumbs up NOW that's a RESCUE!!

TheChive Blog Archive This dog could use a hero (10 Photos, 1 video)




Galeforce gusts blew this Maltese-shitz right off Brighton Pier in Victoria, Australia. Sue Drummond could only look on helplessly as her dog, ironically named Bi Bi, was swept into the angry waves. Luckily, Raden Soemawinata was nearby and took action. Raden stripped down and dove into the bay to save helpless dog.
Raden was a humble hero about the situation saying, “It was pretty cold and windy, but it wasn’t such a hard decision to jump in, it wasn’t such a great feat.” He also added, “I’m a part-time model, so getting into my jocks isn’t so different to what I do for work.” God bless part-time models. Read the whole story here.
UPDATE: Thanks to Lachlan at the Herald Sun, we’ve found out that Mr. Soemawinata was actually on the pier to spread his grandmother’s ashes into the bay.
