Deaf Boys Save Friend's Life

A couple of deaf teenagers in the UK saved the life of an 11-year-old who nearly drowned in a pool. Shezan Khan and Jordan Naylor came to the rescue of Waseem Hussain in Hartlepool, England. The boys were swimming together at an event organized by a local deaf club when Waseem got into the deep end--and cannot swim. It took a great deal of effort for the boys to pull him up from the bottom. Chris Drew, principal of their school, The King’s Academy, has honored them with a Principal’s Commendation award.
