You hear a lot about maternal instincts, but what about paternal instincts? The video compilation below shows ten different dads saving the day at the very last second— swooping in to save their kid from a fall, catch a flying object, run from a massive wave, etc. to prevent one close call and trip to the ER after another.
Or perhaps they were being reckless to begin with?
No matter, their catastrophe foresight and cat-like reflexes are unparalleled. Not a scrape or a bruise among their children! That kid in the ocean got his shoes wet though.
Step up your game, DAD!

I like to call myself a ninja mom because I do catches like that 🙂 but these are pretty impressive!
These are impressive!
At our house, we call it ‘putting on the Dad safety’. My husband has caught more than his fair share of close calls and is so much better at it than I will ever be.
