BREAKING News Out Of North Carolina, THIS IS AWESOME!!!

A New York firefighter, Sean O'Gorman, 50, from the Oswego Fire Department is being hailed

as a hero after rescuing three young girls, who got caught in a rip current at a beach

in North Carolina.

If you have ever been caught in a rip current you know how difficult it is to swim back

to shore.

Trust me, I have first hand experience and it's pretty darn scary.

Anyways, O'Gorman was vacationing with his family in Emerald Isle, N.C., when he spotted

two girls in the water who seemed to be having a hard time returning to the shore.

A third girl who was attempting to save them also became caught up in the rip current.

O'Gorman said he ran to the girls mother, who then called 911.

Deciding not to wait for help, O'Gorman swam out to the girls himself, Fox News reports.

"We were sitting, watching the girls playing in the water about 75 yards out, and I noticed

they stopped trying to get back to the shore, and I think they were caught in a rip current,"

O'Gorman told The Charlotte Observer.

"I decided to swim out, which was easy.

Getting back was a struggle, with me trying to tow them all in.

They were hooked onto my feet."

The firefighter said the girls "did not panic," and he believed that the local fire

department "would've gotten to them" had he not gone out.

Oswego Fire Department confirmed that O'Gorman completed swift water rescue training just

last week, and by "using the aggressive swim, forceful crawl stroke," he was able

to reach the struggling swimmers.

Here's the post from the Oswego Fire Department Facebook page:

SWIFT WATER TRAINING PAYS OFF!

Oswego Firefighter/Medic Sean O'Gorman recently completed swift water rescue training in Auburn

last week.

Today he saved three girls who were caught in a rip current off the of coast of Emerald

Isle, North Carolina while on vacation with his family.

Using the aggressive swim, forceful crawl stroke he learned in training he was able

to reach the girls where their father was unable, even on a surf board.

By the time firefighters from Emerald Isle arrived FF O'Gorman had everyone out of

the water safe.

Each year, approximately 100 people lose their lives in rip currents.

Jason Momoa on the Challenges Of Filming 'Aquaman' | MTV News - Duration: 1:19.

- Compared to the Justice League experience,

what this a bit of a different environment for you?

- Oh, totally different, you know?

Justice League was like college, I'm not really sure

what Aquaman was, it's just all on my shoulders.

I just had a great time.

I think in Justice League, you had five other characters

around you suffering equally the same, so it was kinda fun

to endure that together, and then, it got me ready to do my

solo movie, which was challenging, tough and hard,

and super satisfying.

- When you tackle something like this,

are the reference points other super hero films,

or are there films that have nothing to do with

the super hero genre when you approach it?

- You know, for me what inspired me were all

the, kinda, older, sort of classic action-adventure films

that Spielberg used to do, actually, and I kinda tried

to draw from that mentality, you know, the idea of

awe and wonderment that we used to see in those kinda films,

and I really wanted this movie to have that kinda,

sort of like magic heart, that wish fulfillment

that we all had, you know.

What if we have the ability to just swim anywhere, right,

you know, just hang out on a desert island, you know,

in the middle of nowhere, and just chill,

and so I tried to capture some of that spirit.
