TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: 18 year old saves someone from drowning after an NBA basketball game

Usually when you leave an NBA game at an arena in a major city you don’t expect to suddenly see someone drowning. But that’s exactly what happened to 18-year-old Finn Carter and his Dad up in Boston last Friday.

They had just enjoyed the Celtics game at TD Garden when they saw a guy drowning in the harbor nearby. Without hesitation Finn sprung into action and ran into the water to bring him to the side of the road. By the time he got him out the paramedics had arrived.

The next day Finn woke up and took the S.A.T.’s. Hopefully he had some good karma going for that test score.

Finn’s father said he’s really proud of his son for having that natural reaction to go immediately help someone in danger.
