Hero Bartender Saves Life In Florida
I couldn’t imagine seeing this happen! Let along deciding to jump in the water to try to save them. Aren’t there gators in Florida waterways? That water definitely looks like it would have a gator or two in it. That would be enough to prevent me from jumping in.
Congratulations to Dominic for being a hero! Not everyone would have made the same decision, and he deserves the praise for it! Hopefully the restaurant gives him a little raise now that he’s brought a lot of positive Public Relations to the restaurant. I’d say he deserves it. The man he saves probably agrees, too!
