Teen Rushes Into Traffic To Save Sister's Life

In a heroic moment caught on video, one teen rushes into oncoming traffic to save his little sister’s life.

The teen in the video is a 15-year-old from Brazil, and he risked his life when he sprinted into the road to save his little 3-year-old sister.

The teen’s little sister had run across the street in front of him, and then tried to run back across the street. She did not look to see if there was any traffic coming, and there was a large truck coming down the road right in her direction. She was almost hit by the vehicle, but her brother sprinted and picked her up out of the road. His quick-thinking actions saved her very life!

And the whole rescue was recorded on a shop’s security camera!

"At the time, we didn't grasp the scale of what had happened, but when I took the cameras out, my legs went weak and my eyes filled with water because he'd saved the girl's life," said the shop owner named Alex da Silva Marques. “It was cinematic, a heroic act.”

That brother’s heart must have dropped when he saw his little sister running back to him across the road and into oncoming traffic. But what an incredible big brother he was to swoop in and save her life in the way that he did!

Whether we are bonded through family, or even if we are just strangers on the street, we must always look out for each other. Especially the little children out there who can tend to get into trouble and have accidents when adults are not watching them. God bless this brother and sister and the bond that they share!

John 15:13
Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.
