Twice successfully and one miserable failure.

One time Phil Collins saw something like this, but the one guy didn’t save the other guy from drowning, then Phil saw him at a show and something something, then Stan drove off the cliff with his wife in the trunk.

Once was leaving my parent's house and saw someone cut right in front of a pickup truck. They got spun around and slid into a real deep ditch that was full of water. I got out and a bunch of Waste Management truck drivers got out of their trucks, and we all lifted the car up. The woman was under the water and her leg was fractured. The driver that hit her pulled her out the water and started CPR. Paramedics showed up and she ended up living. I remember my hand being full of glass from holding up the car where the windshield was shattered. Had to take it out with tweezers.

I talked someone out of attempting suicide.
Does that count?

There's a reason the Water Wiggle ceased to exist.

Helped Pull a guy out of Big Lake who cut his hand off with his boat prop after he fell out and the damn boat shark'd him.

Got him to Herbert's. Called paramedics on the way in. They were there when we got there.

You can lose a lot of blood and still make it...

Yes. On a couple of occasions.

Once at a crosswalk a girl was not paying attention and was about to walk into traffic. I grabbed her backpack just as an F250 sped by. She turned around super pissed off until her friend told her that I had just saved her.

Another time walking through the student union and I saw a girl choking. I did the Heinrich maneuver and she coughed up a poorly chewed chicken nugget. I just kept walking. She started screaming “that dude just saved my life.”

Another time I saw a toddler in a shopping cart reaching for something while his mom was looking the other way. He was going to topple over, so I beelined over and caught him just as he started to topple over.

A couple of years ago I and two other guys performed lifesaving cpr care for a guy at work and he lived. It was pretty awesome.
