Another Wholesome Shaq Moment: NBA Star Makes Kids’ Day When They “Rescue” Him At Pool.

At a resort in Honolulu, sport’s ultimate softy Shaquille O’Neil decided to give a swarm of kids the absolute memory of a lifetime by pretending he was drowning and allowing him to ‘save’ him.

Although the water was less than waist height for the 7.1-foot-tall man, he flopped over on his side, floating listlessly as if he had a heart attack. The kids all pitched in, and 7 of them were needed to turn the giant over onto his back before swimming him to safety.

At that point, the man, the myth, the legend, stood up and thanked them for saving him.

The pair of videos obviously accumulated millions of views on TikTok.

Capturing this was Daniel Chavez, a self-identified Shaq fan, who nevertheless felt conflicted as to whether or not he should record the famous LA Lakers center-turned-sports analyst while on vacation.

“Part of me was like, hmm, should I film this?” he said. “Or, no. 2, should I just enjoy the moments? No. 3, I’m like, he’s relaxing, he’s on vacation, why am I gonna bother this guy’s privacy? But the journalist in me said, ‘No. No, this guy’s being real right now, he’s being such a cool guy. I’m sure people would love to see this side of him.’”

Later in the lobby, Daniel was able to meet Shaq in person, who was “so humble” and even agreed to have a photo with the TikToker.

GNN is always on the lookout for a Shaq attack of kindness, and has reported on his exploits of showering kids with Nintendo Switches and PS5s, tipping a waitress $4,000 because she asked, paying for a stranger’s engagement ring for a smile, converting a family home into one that’s wheelchair accessible for a young boy, and taking a young man with oversized feet to his personal cobbler to fit him with 10 pairs of size 18 kicks.
