After so often playing the villain on-screen, actor Danny Trejo proved that he is definitely a hero off-screen.
The Breaking Bad star performed an act of pure courage whilst recently driving in Los Angeles.
He saw a woman accidentally speed through a red light and collide with another car, causing the first vehicle to overturn.
The actor jumped out of his own car to help and heard the woman screaming that her son with special needs was still trapped in the overturned car.
Springing into action, Trejo and another bystander pulled the door open and managed to free the boy who was strapped into his car seat.
“He was panicked,” the 75-year-old told KABC of the boy. “I said ‘OK, we have to use our superpowers.’ So he screamed ‘superpowers’ and we started yelling ‘superpowers.’ I said do this, with the muscles. He said ‘muscles.’ We got kind of a bond.”
The scene definitely had a happy ending.
