Images: Instagram/@andersongeraldjr, X/@TmaeOsanomae Gerald Anderson could very well be a real-life superhero after he helped rescue a family stranded by floods due to the onslaught of Super Typhoon Carina, enhanced by the southwest monsoon. A video uploaded by one @TmaeOsanomae on Wednesday, July 24, showed Anderson wading through chest-deep floodwaters to help a family trapped inside their home.
After greeting the family, he reached his arms out to carry a crying young girl in a pink jacket so she could be brought to safety. “Sasama ang nanay mo, tara (Your mother will be with you. Come here),” Anderson said in a clear and confident voice, before eventually carrying the pink-hooded child to safety.
“Okay, ako ang bahala sa’yo (Okay, I’ll take care of you),” the actor said right after. Thank you gelard #CarinaPH pic.twitter.
