A 13-year-old boy with autism perfectly knew how to save his classmate from choking with apple a la Spongebob way. Brandon Williams helped his pal by remembering an episode of "SpongeBob Squarepants" he watched.

According to AOL, Brandon quickly got on his feet and went to his classmate, Jessica Pellegrino, when he noticed that she was choking and struggling to keep her breath. He pulled Jessica to stand up and he, then, applied the Heimlich maneuver by wrapping his arms unto her stomach and gave her sharp thrust to her diaphragm.

Fortunately, Brandon's move resulted into something good as Jessica was able to spit a chunk of the apple's skin, which got stocked in her throat. His father, Anthony, asked his child where did he learned the Heimlich maneuver, the teenager promptly replied: "[I] Learned it on SpongeBob."

Brandon gave credits to his favorite popular television show that thought him how to save his classmate's life. SILive had an interview with Anthony in their Great Kills home, just a few days after the Oct. 28 incident happened.

"I went like this," Brandon demonstrated to his dad. "He picks up on things that most of us would miss, and files it all away in his head, and he can recall it all in an instant," Anthony said.

"That's how he knew instantly what to do. And we're glad he did. We're proud of him." Moreover, Brandon is in his seventh-grade at Barnes Intermediate School (I.S. 24) in Great Kills.

He belonged in a special-need 12:1:1 class with other dozen students, including Jessica. Each pupil has their own assigned paraprofessional during the school day.

"The students eat lunch together as a class, sitting at the same table each day, and they all look out for one another," Pat DeMarco, the paraprofessional assigned to Jessica, said. Brandon's paraprofessional, on the other hand, is a retired police officer from the NYPD's 122nd Precinct and very much trained professional in handling emergencies.

Griffin was in the area when the choking incident happened to Jessica. He said: "The cafeteria is always very noisy, but I heard the kids calling me. I was ready to jump in, but Brandon had it."

"He was amazing. I've never seen anything like it," he added. "Some people may have preconceived notions about autism, but these kids are intelligent, loving, just amazing, kids."

Meanwhile, AOL noted that the next day after the mishap happened, the students' class gave Brandon and Jessica a small party to celebrate his heroic deed. Some of the adults wanted to give Brandon a medal for his kind act, but he said: "I don't need a medal. I'm good; I'm good."
