When she approached a pond, Xu abruptly slammed on the brakes of her car, causing it to skid and plunge into the water. “I saw a maroon car in the pond, with only the roof visible above the water. The driver’s neck was stuck in the window, and she was screaming for help,” Tang told Hunan Daily Press Group.
“There was no one else around, and I didn’t have time to think. I just knew I had to save her,” he said.“I hit the glass four or five times in the centre without it breaking. Finally, I struck the edge with all my strength, and it shattered,” Tang said, adding that he swam to the shore while supporting Xu under his armpits.
“I was a mischievous child back then and after school I fell into the pond. I am so grateful to Tang for saving me twice,” said Xu.The heartwarming coincidence has amazed many people online.
