A 12-year-old is credited for saving a drowning adult from a pool by using CPR.
September 12, 2023, 9:01 AMAusten MacMillan, a 12-year-old Florida boy who sprung into action last week when he noticed a man in danger of drowning, said he learnedAusten and his behavioral therapist, Jason Piquette, were swimming in a pool when Piquette attempted to see how long he could hold his breath underwater.
“It was like six to five minutes he was under the water and I was like, 'That's way too long. He can not do that,'” said Austen.A surveillance camera focused on the pool shows Austen recognizing something is wrong, swimming to Piquette and hoisting him to safety in the shallow end of the pool, and dashing out of the water to call for help.Christina MacMillan
A Ring camera showed Austen sprinting outside the home where the incident took place while screaming for help.The video then shows Austen returning to Piquette’s side to perform CPR. “I just saw it from a TV show – ‘Stranger Things,’” said Austen. "After I gave him CPR, he woke up a few minutes later."Jason Piquette and 12-year-old Austen MacMillan are seen here.“When I first got the call from my husband, I almost felt like I couldn't speak. My whole body, like, locked up,” said Christina MacMillan, Austen’s mom.
Both the MacMillan and Piquette families said they hope the incident serves as a reminder of two things: the importance of CPR and of teaching children how to dial 911 on locked cellphones, something iPhones and Androids both provide as options.
