We’re sure a lot of us are getting a bit tired of the near daily flash floods. Well apparently for these 2 superheroes, all it took was getting a bit dirty and some common sense!

Over the weekend, Twitter user @datininaz shared the condition of the flood and traffic at Jalan Genting Kelang and how her two boys had saved the day!
It takes a little common sense to save the world.

Hujan lebat, banjir teruk kat jalan Genting Kelang, banyak kereta sangkut, so my boys turun and tengok apa boleh buat.
Banjir no moreee! So proud of you guys! Please share & leave a kind message for our unsung heroes 😍 pic.twitter.com/TyfQd1nNeg
According to @datiniaz, her car had suddenly stopped working, just before they approached the flooded area. Not wanting the same fate for other drivers on the road, her husband and son took matters into their own hands by going along the road that was affected by the flood and uncovered as many as 8 manholes, to stop the flood from spreading even further.
Kalau korang mcm terfikir apa yang diorang buat nak settlekan banjir ni. This is what they did.

Diorang buka lebih 8 manholes sepanjang jalan yg banjir. Tak fikir dah kotor ke jijik🤣
Kereta kitorang dah mati, so taknak lah lebih banyak kereta mati pulak kan pic.twitter.com/1t0lkxXZln
… and don’t worry, they even covered the manholes again once the flash flood subsided.
And dont worry! Manholes tu semua mereka tutup balik selepas banjir dah surut pic.twitter.com/KKqK5Eni2n

Netizens all across social media commended the act of heroism by these two gentlemen and agreed that one small action can lead to such a big impact!

Let this be a lesson for all of us to be more proactive and to use our common sense more.
