Mark Harmon Is a Hero on and off the Screen

Harmon has appeared in a lot of films and TV shows, although he is most renowned for his performances as criminal investigators.

Harmon is a real-life hero in addition to being a gifted performer. Near his Brentwood home, the actor saved two adolescent lads who were in a car accident.

At about 7:15 p.m., the lads were behind the wheel when they carelessly drove their automobile into a tree because they missed a curve. The car went up in smoke when it flipped over.

Harmon acted swiftly, smashed the glass with a sledgehammer, and rescued the boys, according to Brian Humphrey, a spokesman for the Los Angeles Fire Department.

Humphrey stated that despite one of the boys sustaining serious burns, he was sent to UCLA Medical Center without delay. The second adolescent was also transported to St. John's Hospital and Health Center for treatment, although his injuries were less serious.

Despite being 72 years old, Harmon places a premium on maintaining his strength and health. The actor's training is an integral part of his daily life since he was the quarterback for the UCLA football team.

Since Harmon isn't an 18-year-old, he relies on Pilates as his primary form of exercise. As difficult as it was, the actor claims that is exactly why he enjoys it. What did he say?

Every week, I would put in 60 to 70 miles. Right now, I really could use some of that. The focus of [Pilates] is on machine control, which is twice as challenging.
