The river was calm, until a luxury car pulled up. Inside, a frightened five-year-old girl in a wheelchair clutched her teddy bear.
Her father placed her in a boat and, without warning, threw her into the river. Panic surged through everyone watching — everyone except one chestnut horse nearby.
The horse, sensing the danger, plunged into the water. Powerful and determined, it swam toward the struggling girl. The horse’s owner, seeing this, ran in after it. Together, man and animal reached the girl, keeping her afloat until she could be pulled safely to shore.
The girl was alive, trembling but safe. The hero? The chestnut horse, who had risked everything to save her.
