After taking a shot at Superman on Friday, Dwayne Johnson kicked back in to full-on hero mode over the holiday weekend, just in time to save an adorable French bulldog pup from drowning.
As the "Shazam!" star explains on his Instagram page, when he took the newest additions to the Johnson family -- Brutus and Hobbs -- out to take care of business, they immediately took off running and fell into the deep end of the swimming pool.
"Hobbs immediately starts doggy paddling while Brutus (like a brick) sink heads first to the bottom of the pool," Johnson recalls. "I take off into a full sprint, fully clothed, dive in the pool, swim to the bottom, rescue my brick, I mean Brutus and bring him back to the edge of the pool. He was a little delirious ... took a moment, threw up all the water he swallowed and looked up at me as if to say, 'Thank God you didn't have to give me mouth to mouth!' and then ran off to play with his brother."
Although Brutus and Hobbs may not have learned anything from the experience, Johnson sure did -- among them, "While spiriting to save your puppies life, before you dive in, try and throw your cel phone to safety. Don't keep it in your pocket ... like I did."
