Five quick-thinking Mississippi middle school students sprang into action and saved 40 of their classmates on Wednesday, April 22, when their bus driver suffered a sudden asthma attack and passed out behind the wheel on a highway near Hancock Middle School in Hancock County.

5 brave students jumped into action and steered the drifting bus to safety, called 911, and helped administer her medication. No one was seriously injured.

The brave kids are now being hailed as heroes.
