'Every doctor, everyone, has said I should be dead,' Jason Piquette told Scripps News West Palm Beach.
A Florida boy recently saved a man's life after he said he learned CPR watching the hit Netflix show"Stranger Things."
"Every doctor, everyone, has said I should be dead," Piquette said."I am so grateful to be alive, and so grateful that Austen stepped up and saved me." "One of the things that we do the most is swim," Piquette said."He loves to swim, and it's something that we have been doing the past couple of years is holding our breath challenges.""We both held our breath like for a minute, a minute and a half," Piquette said."And I said, 'OK, I am going to do it one more time and like try to get to two and a half minutes.' And I said to him, 'Just tap on me when we I'm about a minute 40 [seconds].
"And I went underwater, and I was relaxed. I felt great, and that's the last thing I remember. I'm pretty positive that I lost consciousness," Piquette said."My lungs started to fill up with water, and I went from the shallow end at the bottom of the pool because I let all of the air out of my lungs. I went to the bottom of the pool and sank. And then I started to raise up a little bit, and I started to drift to the deep end.
