Now THIS is a wonderful story that everyone should know about: Sue Drummond and her Maltese-Shih Tzu mix Bibi set off for a walk by the water in Melbourne, Australia, she had no idea that it could be Bibi’s last. But with furious winds estimated at 60 mph, Bibi was suddenly blown right off the pier and into the rough waters below. “I thought he was going to sink and then maybe I wouldn’t be able to find him,” Drummond said. “But I didn’t really want to hop in the water either because I wasn’t quite sure if I could make it to shore with a struggling dog.” Drummond watched as Bibi helplessly tried to doggy paddle back to the pier. Then out of nowhere, a bystander named Raden Soemawinata stripped down to his underwear and shirt and jumped in to save the pup. Soemawinata, 20, was on the pier for a family ceremony to scatter his grandmother’s ashes when he saw the dog struggling and plunged in after him. Though he’s being hailed as a hero, Soemawinata says saving the dog wasn’t especially brave. “It was pretty cold and windy but it wasn’t such a hard decision to jump in,” he said. “It wasn’t such a great feat. I’m a part-time model, so getting into my jocks isn’t so different to what I do for work.” What an amazing young man!
