Good Samaritans help save 2 men from drowning in water off Sunset Cliffs

SAN DIEGO -- Two men are lucky to be alive after somehow falling off Sunset Cliffs early Thursday morning.

Those good Samaritans told ABC 10News that around 1 a.m. they heard the two men screaming in the water and fighting for their lives, so they immediately took action.Witness Zachary Mallak said,"They were getting smashed in the waves and they were dropped into the cave. And when they were brought into the cave, they didn't respond. So, they could have gotten stuck there for days; like, who knows what would have happened.

"They were dying," Miller said."They were going to die if no one came in, so what was I going to do? Sit there and watch?" One of the victims who fell in is seen in the video wearing a white T-shirt, and he, along with his friend, were helped up the cliffs where medics rendered aid.
