Doran Smith and David Squillante were on their honeymoon in Barcelona, Spain when they ran into a group of women panicking. They soon realized that there was a fire in a building, and they rushed to help.

"I saw a flame coming out of the doorway, next to the door that these women had come out of," Doran said. "So, I said 'Oh my God there's a fire.'"

That’s when her husband, David, rushed inside and realized that he was in a nursery. No one there spoke English, but he quickly jumped into action to help save the babies from the fire.

"Instinct took over,” David said. “I found myself looking at 15, 20 babies sleeping, and immediately just kind of lined everyone up and we started grabbing them, putting them into the crib."

A group of people started taking the cribs with children in them and rolling them across the street to safety. They set up the cribs in the lobby of the high school across the street while fire crews arrived to put out the flames.

"It was, like probably, like ten minutes, but it seemed like an instant, but it turned out to be OK,” David said.
