But that&rsquo;s not all they did. Reporters from ABC, CBS and CNN also helped save lives &ndash;&nbsp;and one Weather Channel reporter even rescued an American flag.</p>

<p>&ldquo;I did what any other human should or would do,&rdquo; one reporter<a href="https://twitter.com/BrandiKHOU/status/902269082006945792" style="text-decoration-line:none"> tweeted</a> after her story went viral with millions of views. &ldquo;We all need to love each other and watch out for each other.&rdquo;</p>

<p><strong>1. KHOU 11 Reporter Brandi Smith Rescues Truck Driver</strong></p>

<p>Working for a CBS affiliate in Houston, reporter Brandi Smith and photojournalist Mario Sandoval reported outside as the hurricane hit. While on an overpass, Sandoval<a href="https://twitter.com/BrandiKHOU/status/901836426945449989" style="text-decoration-line:none"> spotted</a> a driver trapped below in his flooded 18-wheeler. Smith took action when she spied a Sheriff pickup truck approaching with a boat in tow.</p>

<p>&ldquo;Here we go, we have a boat coming,&rdquo; Smith exclaimed on camera. &ldquo;I&rsquo;m going to flag these guys down.&rdquo;</p>

<p><div class="video-filter embed-responsive embed-responsive-16by9"><iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/l9ML8YCQUGE?modestbranding=0&amp;html5=1&amp;rel=1&amp;autoplay=0&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;loop=0&amp;controls=1&amp;autohide=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;theme=dark&amp;color=red&amp;enablejsapi=0" width="720" height="405" class="video-filter video-youtube video-center vf-l9ml8ycquge embed-responsive-item" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe></div></p>

<p>&ldquo;Hold on just a sec,&rdquo; she added, out of breath, running with the microphone in her hand as the pickup slowed down. &ldquo;Are you guys headed down to the truck right here?&rdquo; she asked the two men inside. &ldquo;There&rsquo;s a truck driver stuck here in about 10 feet of water.&rdquo;</p>

<p>They weren&rsquo;t headed there, she later confirmed. But they changed direction after she stopped them.</p>

<p>As water slowly filled the truck, Smith yelled to the driver to reassure him, &ldquo;Sir, there&rsquo;s a boat here.&rdquo; And later: &ldquo;Sir, they&rsquo;re putting the boat in just now. They&rsquo;re on their way.&rdquo;</p>

<p>One sheriff revealed to her that just last year, at nearly the same location, a different truck driver drowned because he didn&rsquo;t realize how high the water was.</p>

<p>As the driver crawled out of the passenger window into the rescue boat, Smith confessed, &ldquo;I feel like I can finally breathe.&rdquo;</p>

<p style="text-align:center"><iframe allowfullscreen="true" allowtransparency="true" frameborder="0" height="308" scrolling="no" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FKHOUBrandiSmith%2Fvideos%2F1806332566058324%2F&amp;show_text=0&amp;width=560" style="border:none;overflow:hidden" width="560"></iframe></p>

<p>&ldquo;What went through your mind when you saw that water?&rdquo; she asked the driver, named Robert, as he stepped out of the rescue boat onto land.</p>

<p>&ldquo;Lord help me, yes, get me out of here safely,&rdquo; Robert responded. &ldquo;I just thank God that you guys were right here to get me.&rdquo;</p>

<p>Smith reacted, &ldquo;This is going to sound weird, but can I hug you? I&rsquo;m so happy you&rsquo;re okay.&rdquo;</p>

<p>&ldquo;I did what any other human should or would do,&rdquo; Smith<a href="https://twitter.com/BrandiKHOU/status/902269082006945792" style="text-decoration-line:none"> tweeted</a> after the story went viral with more than two million views on Facebook. &ldquo;We all need to love each other and watch out for each other.&rdquo;</p>

<p><strong>2. CNN Correspondent Ed Lavandera Rescues Elderly Couple</strong></p>

<p>A CNN crew, together with a citizen rescuer Austin Seth,<a href="http://www.cnn.com/2017/08/27/us/texas-cnn-crew-helps-harvey-rescue/index.html" style="text-decoration-line:none"> aided in the rescue</a> of an elderly couple and their daughter from a flooded home in Dickinson, Texas.</p>

<p>As they began aiding Pam Jones and her parents, Elmore and JoAnne, CNN Newsroom anchor Ana Cabrera tried to ask Lavandera about what was happening.</p>

<p>&ldquo;We were about to leave this neighborhood, there was a woman who had kind of flagged us down, that her and her two elderly parents who were still stuck inside home,&rdquo; he began reporting, but then stopped. &ldquo;So I&#39;m going to put the mic down. We&rsquo;re going to help them try to get into the boat so we can get them out of here.&rdquo;</p>

<p><div class="video-filter embed-responsive embed-responsive-16by9"><iframe src="https://www.mrctv.org/embed/512761" width="720" height="405" class="video-filter video-mrctv video-center vf-512761 embed-responsive-item" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe></div></p>

<p>After he helped Elmore and two dogs into the boat, he told Cabrera to take them off air.</p>

<p>&ldquo;I got to be honest, the daughter told us that her mother has Alzheimer&#39;s so that&#39;s complicating the situation,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;So let&#39;s be a little bit delicate here because I don&#39;t know what kind of condition her mother is in.&rdquo;</p>

<p>When they appeared back on air, they were all safely in the boat.</p>

<p>&ldquo;We were about to leave the neighborhood, and we heard your voice,&quot; Lavandera repeated to Pam Jones after aiding in the family&#39;s rescue.</p>

<p>&quot;Yeah, well, thank God,&quot; Jones responded.</p>

<p><strong>3. KTRK/ABC 13 Reporter Foti Kallergis Rescues Disabled</strong></p>

<p>Besides its own employees, CNN also <a href="http://www.cnn.com/videos/weather/2017/08/28/houston-flooding-reporter-rescue-rooftop.cnn" style="text-decoration-line:none">reported</a> on an ABC affiliate&rsquo;s reporter and crew who &ldquo;helped aid a rescue of people trapped on a roof in Houston, Texas.&rdquo;</p>

<p>The reporter, <a href="http://abc13.com/about/newsteam/" style="text-decoration-line:none">who appeared to be</a> KTRK&rsquo;s Foti Kallergis, saw a flashing light from a rooftop where several citizens appeared stranded.</p>

<p><div class="video-filter embed-responsive embed-responsive-16by9"><iframe src="https://www.mrctv.org/embed/512766" width="720" height="405" class="video-filter video-mrctv video-center vf-512766 embed-responsive-item" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe></div></p>

<p>&ldquo;We can take you guys if you need,&rdquo; he consoled them. As they shouted down to him, he repeated, &ldquo;two handicapped, two sick and disabled and two in wheel chairs right now on the top of that roof. I have no idea how they got them on top of that roof.&rdquo;</p>

<p>Later on, as he reported on the critical situation, he helped stabilize one man with a pacemaker leaving the roof.</p>

<p><strong>Honorable Mention: <a href="https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/nicholas-fondacaro/2017/08/27/weather-channel-meteorologists-rescues-american-flag-harvey" target="_blank">Weather Channel Reporter Rescues American Flag</a></strong></p>

<p>Meteorologist Paul Goodloe discovered an American flag lying amidst street debris while on air in Rockport, Texas.</p>

<p>&ldquo;I&rsquo;m going to have to pick that up,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;I can&rsquo;t let Old Glory just sit here like that.&rdquo;</p>

<p><div class="video-filter embed-responsive embed-responsive-16by9"><iframe src="https://www.mrctv.org/embed/512771" width="720" height="405" class="video-filter video-mrctv video-center vf-512771 embed-responsive-item" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe></div></p>

<p>After interrupting his reporting to fold the flag, he added, &ldquo;Not the perfect fold, but definitely a rescue from Hurricane Harvey.&rdquo;</p>
