An 11-year-old gymnast has her coach to thank for saving her from a  life threatening fall.  This coach did something so amazing, the audience applauded HIM!

Cadence Tuite was doing a warm-up routine on the uneven bars when her hands slipped.  Her coach, was there in a flash a millisecond before she hit the mat headfirst.  The way she was falling, witness say without the quick response from her coach, this could have been the end of Tuite's reign as a gymnast.
