Looks like Dylan Efron from The Traitors can add another accolade to his growing list. Not only did Zac Efron’s brother win the reality show, but he is now also a bona fide hero. The Traitors champion recently showed his prowess in the real world by saving two women from drowning in Miami.
Dylan was in Miami with his friend Brennon and his Traitors co-star and Britney Spears’ ex-husband Sam Asghari. It was Dylan’s first time visiting South Beach, and it was certainly memorable for the 2025 March MANness winner.
Dylan Efron jumped into action to save the women from drowning
Dylan joined Brooke and Connor Make a Podcast to talk about swimming with crocodiles, his favorite books, and how he saved two women from drowning at the beach.
It’s not too surprising. He has already proved his worth by winning The Traitors. In fact, Zac predicted Dylan would win because he is resilient and exceptionally good at games.
Plus, Dylan loves being physical (I mean, have you seen his online thirst traps? Real Housewife Dorit Kemsley certainly has!) and he never says no to adventures. Which is why he couldn’t just walk away when he saw people in trouble.
“I just walk up to the shore for the first time ever, and I’m looking out, and there’s people screaming in the water,” Dylan recalled. He didn’t think it was a shark because he noticed that the “currents were ripping.”
“I just saw five girls, like, their hands were up, screaming,” he added. “There’s people on the shore with their hands up and there’s no lifeguards around.” He and his friend Brennon just sprinted out to help.
Dylan said there was already someone helping the girls closer to the shore. So he swam out to bring one girl in before swimming back out for the other girl.
“The last girl I swam in, I was just trying to calm her down. Just saying, ‘Breathe. Breathe.’ And she’s wrapped around me in the biggest hug and doesn’t want to let go,” he explained. “So we hugged for a full minute on the shore and I’m like, ‘You’re safe. You’re good.’”
Dylan recalled that the currents were really strong, and the girls probably got a little too far and got caught in them. After they rescued the girls, officials directed everyone back to land.
The Traitors is streaming on Peacock.
