In January, former NFL running back Peyton Hillis saved his son and niece from drowning in a rip current while swimming at a Florida beach. He opened up about the harrowing experience in an interview with Good Morning America's Michael Strahan.
"It is 100 percent a miracle that somebody didn't die," Hillis said. It was his first time speaking since the accident, which occurred off the coast of Pensacola on Jan. 4.
Hillis described the difficulty of having to make the split-second decision to save his eight-year-old niece Camille before rescuing his nine-year-old son Orry.
