An 8-year-old boy is being called a hero after rescuing another boy who was drowning in a California hotel pool.

Cooper Davis, who lives in Johns Creek, Ga., was vacationing with his family in Garden Grove, Calif. on July 2 when he saved the other boy's life. He was swimming laps when he saw a boy at the bottom of the pool. "I thought [the boy] was playing so I took a breath and another kid said, 'Help! Help! A kid's underwater!" Cooper told ABC News.

Cooper explains that after he heard the cries for help, he immediately dove underwater and rescued the drowning boy. According to his father Jeff Davis, Cooper enjoys recreational swimming and has participated in his neighborhood's summer swim team for the past two years.

"I heard someone yell, 'Help! Someone's drowning in the pool!' I looked up because I figured it could have been my kid and I ran to the pool," said Jeff Davis,"�
