According to a 911 report from the incident, the youngster disappeared beneath the surface amid strong currents. Emergency services rushed to the scene and joined the frantic search before Levi's mum ultimately dove into the fast-flowing river.
Paramedics administered life-saving treatment as Levi was rushed to the hospital, where medics managed to restore his heartbeat.

However, Levi shocked everyone when he regained consciousness in a stunning turn of events.
"I am shaking; we don't know much, but the doctor said it was okay for me to get excited about that, and I am! My baby is so tough!" the excited mother wrote on Facebook.
