A 20-year-old lifeguard is being hailed as a hero for saving a baby’s life on a New Jersey beach.

Peter LaQuaglia has already performed over 20 rescues out at sea in his short life-saving career. But although he didn’t even step foot in the ocean, he described saving the life of the 10-month-year-old on June 9 as the “scariest moment” of his life.
