Dylan Efron recently saved two young women from drowning in Florida’s Atlantic Ocean.
The “Traitors” star recounted the heroic tale on Thursday’s episode of “Brooke and Connor Make a Podcast,” sharing that it was his first time visiting South Beach in Miami.
Efron, 33, was with his friend Brennon and his “Traitors” co-star Sam Asghari.
“I just walk up the shore for the first time ever, and I’m looking out, and there’s people screaming in the water,” Efron recalled, adding that he didn’t initially think it could be a shark because “the currents were ripping.”
“I just saw five girls, like, their hands were up, screaming. There’s people on the shore with their hands up,” he continued.
“So I just looked around, and there’s no lifeguards around. … Me and Brennon just look at each other, and we just sprinted out there.”
The “Down to Earth with Zac Efron” producer noted that there were two women in the water who were closer to shore who “already had a guy helping them in,” while the other three were “out further.”
“So I swam one in, swam back for another girl,” he explained.
“The last girl I swam in, I was just trying to calm her down. Just saying, ‘Breathe. Breathe.’ And she’s just wrapped me in the biggest hug, like, doesn’t wanna let go. So we hugged for like a full minute, just hugging this girl on the shore. I’m like, ‘You’re safe. You’re good.’”
According to Zac Efron’s younger brother, the girl “never said [another] word” to him, and they both “just walked away.”
He described the experience as “random” and “really real.”
When asked whether he hesitated to enter the ocean given the powerful rip current, Dylan replied, “I’m in the water a lot, so I just felt comfortable.”
However, he did point out that he and Brennon “ended up, like, a football field length away” from where they first entered the water.
“The current was strong,” he reiterated. “The girls probably just got a little too far and got scared.”
After that, Dylan said officials directed everyone in the ocean to come back to land.
