All of them had gotten out of their boat and swam to a little island nearby. According the James, Anthony did not go and stayed back to watch barracudas. I think we can all see what is going to happen next.

LeBron James explained how he stepped in and had to save someone’s life. This probably is not the first time.

“I just knew that he was not back in the boat with the rest of us, so I went out looking for him,” James said on Monday. “And through the grace of God and through strength and not being afraid of the water, I was able to help him back to the boat. It was the only thing that was on my mind at that point and time, was getting my brother back to the boat.”

Wow, who new James could double as a life guard. This is a pretty crazy story.

“He was bringing me back with one arm,” said Anthony, giving his side of the story. “He’s swimming with one arm, and he’s carrying me with the other arm. … Yo, Bron, I appreciate that. You saved my life that day. Them little flippers wasn’t working for me.”
