Dad Saves 2-Year-Old Daughter by Jumping into Pool – Video

In a heart-stopping moment caught on camera, a heroic dad in North Carolina jumped into a backyard pool to rescue his 2-year-old daughter. The incident occurred as kids were playing in the pool, and at some point, the toddler’s parents removed her floaties. In a terrifying turn of events, the child somehow found her way back into the water. That’s when Matthew Shortridge, the toddler’s father, sprang into action.

Without a moment’s hesitation, Shortridge dove into the pool to save his daughter. As he pulled her out of the water, he immediately began performing CPR while a family friend administered chest compressions. Miraculously, the little girl started to breathe again, and the crisis was averted.

This heart-pounding video serves as a reminder of the importance of water safety, but also highlights the incredible bravery and quick thinking of parents when it comes to protecting their children. Hats off to this dad for his heroism and quick actions that saved his daughter’s life.
