Incredible footage shows a group of prisoners break out of their cell - in order to help a guard who was having a heart attack.
Gary Grimm said he would not have survived if the group had not escaped and called for assistance.
He was guarding the inmates at a Texas courthouse when he suddenly slumped in his seat and inmates realised he was unconscious.
Security footage of the rescue went viral, and Mr Grimm has voiced his gratitude to the men who put their differences aside in order to help.
The 52-year-old told WFAA : "Instead of overtaking me and taking my gun, and killing me or taking a hostage and escaping, they looked at me as a human being."
