Not all heroes wear capes. Sometimes, they’re wearing nothing but a towel. Well, that’s what happened in Norway. Sauna patrons wearing nothing but towels rescued 2 people from a car in the water!
It’s definitely not who you’d expect to save the day. Yet, they’re thankful they were there!
Sauna Patrons Wearing Towels Rescue 2 From Car In Water
The heroes were wearing only towels around their waists while enjoying a floating sauna when they rescued two people whose car had gone into the water.
According to ABC News, the car had driven off the edge and into the fjord near an area where ships dock in Norway’s capital city of Oslo.
A witness to what happened told the Norwegian VG newspaper that he saw the car stop before suddenly accelerating and going into the water. It was reported that the driver thought the vehicle was in park when he hit the gas pedal, according to ABC News.
That had to have been quite a surprise for the people on the floating sauna. Chances are you’re out there because you needed to relax or were looking to unwind. Then, they witness a car go flying into the water and have to go into action. That’s probably the exact opposite of relaxation. One second you’re relaxing in your towel forgetting all your worries, the next you’re having to save a life. That’s a major 180!
Now, the whole thing is going viral because it was caught on camera! It’s pretty shocking to see! You can watch along as the car floats in the water and the men are forced to jump into action. At least they were probably limber and ready to jump into action. Just very strange timing as they’re trying to relax. Thankfully, they didn’t ignore it and deem it somebody else’s problem. That would have been bad!

You may have heard of liquid courage. It’s the term we’ve given to that phenomena where you have feelings of self-confidence and self-assuredness after consuming alcohol. For example, when you’re at the bar and you’ve had a couple of drinks and you aren’t scared to talk to that girl you’ve never met who’s sitting next to you. Usually, you wouldn’t speak to her. You’d be too shy or feel awkward. However, with liquid courage, you’re ready to approach.
Understanding Liquid Courage
In reality, the alcohol didn’t actually make you brave. In fact, alcohol causes our brain to release the chemical dopamine, which is a hormone that deals with motivation and rewards. According to The Guest House, the confidence isn’t real, the alcohol has changed our perception. That feeling of confidence and re-assuredness is actually a false sense of those things. That’s where alcohol and its dependency can become a real problem for people.

In order to do that, you’re going to want to avoid making these mistakes!
