An 11-year-old Kentucky boy named Avory Woolery is an amazing kid, and here's why.

Avery noticed an unconscious man at the bottom of an apartment complex swimming pool in Lexington and realized no one else was doing anything to help.

So, he put on his goggles, dove in, and pulled the man to the surface all by himself. Once out of the water, the man's friend began CPR while another bystander called 911. The man was taken to a hospital in serious condition.

Avory told reporters, "I grabbed him up and I just felt really bad because there was no way that I was going to let another man die today. He's a human being. He should be treated as such."

Avory's father, Sean Woolery, said he could not be prouder of his son's courage saying, "I'm proud of him. Somebody, when I was walking up here, somebody said, 'Thank you. You taught him how to swim.'"
