Brad Pitt became a hero yesterday at the Venice Film Festival after he saved a young fan from falling into a lake.
The Fight Club star was happily signing autographs for a group of young fans on a boat – but one overwhelmed teen tripped and fell into the water.
Brad acted quickly and grabbed the youngster out of the water and out of harms way before he then continued to sign his book.
He is at the Italian festival to promote new movie Burn After Reading.
The rescued youngster certainly won't forget why he is a Brad fan.
