Reason No. 387546 why Miles Teller is an absolute national treasure: he saves lives. Literally.

The Divergent actor was vacationing with his girlfriend Keleigh Sperry in Miami over the weekend when his natural heroic instinct kicked in.

A pregnant woman got stuck in a rip tide near where the 28-year-old was taking a dip in the ocean, and he immediately came to her rescue.

Teller was shown helping the woman and a young child to shore and spoke with them for a few minutes to ensure that they were both OK.

Meanwhile, the star's 22-year-old model girlfriend was watching from the distance while soaking up the sun in a barely there orange bikini.

The couple appeared to get right back into their R&R routine after the ordeal, exchanging PDA-filled moments in the ocean and taking photos of one another with their cellphones.

Teller recently opened up to E! News about his lady love, saying, "She's lovely. It's been pretty easy because right now, her full-time gig is kind of being with me and before her, I would never invite a girl into that world because I didn't think I could have both."

He continued, "She's allowed me to be able to really focus on acting and do what I want to do. She can come to set and visit me and hang out and doesn't really distract me from it."
