On the basketball court, LeBron James often saves his teammates with clutch plays. Amazingly, James' apparent knack for saving others carries over to his everyday life off the court.

In a September Vogue profile on James and his wife Savannah, their friend and Dwyane Wade's wife Gabrielle Union shared a story about the Cavs superstar saving someone during a group snorkeling trip. James apparently noticed someone was missing from the boat so he jumped in and saved the absent snorkeler.

Here's the entire story from Union:

Union and her husband, Dwyane Wade, with other friends and athletes, were out snorkeling in the Bahamas a few years back. Some, including Wade, were ocean-shy, city-born and not as strong at swimming as LeBron. (“LeBron, it turns out, is Aquaman!” Union says.) Eventually, the group got out in the water, though at the end of the swim, when everyone was back in the boat, LeBron took a count and noticed a man missing, immediately diving back in. “He literally brings our friend back, like something out of an episode of Baywatch,” Union says. “Because he’s that guy, and when you see that, you know he is not going to leave these at-risk kids behind or an NBA player snorkeling. He’s that guy who dives in.”

James seriously is a real life superhero.
