Supermodel Heidi Klum is not only beautiful, but she also would make a pretty good lifeguard apparently. The "Project Runway" host reportedly saved her seven-year-old son and two nannies from a riptide while vacationing in Oahu, Hawaii. Pictures show the supermodel pulling them from the ocean along with her bodyguard boyfriend Martin Kirsten. If David Hasselhoff ever decides to give "Baywatch" another try he should give Klum a call.

Pictures of the incident were posted by ETonline.com, showing Klum helping her son and nannies out of the water. In a couple of the pictures, even Klum's boyfriend looked exhausted from the riptide. Following her divorce from singer Seal, Klum and her boyfriend went public with their relationship last year. Since then they seem to be inseparable. Kirsten was pictured looking very comfortable on the beach with the entire Klum family, including Heidi's kids.

Klum confirmed her relationship with Kirsten on day-time talk show "Katie" back in September. "I trust him with my children's life," Klum said to "Katie" host Katie Couric. "He's a great man . . . and we just got to know each other from a completely different side." According to US Magazine, Kirsten worked as Klum's bodyguard for four years before the two became close over the summer.

In a statement released via US Magazine on Monday Klum said: "We got pulled into the ocean by a big wave. Of course, as a mother, I was very scared for my child and everyone else in the water. Henry is a strong swimmer and was able to swim back to land. We were able to get everyone out safely." Obviously this must of been a very scary event for Klum and her family, but luckily it sounds like everyone is okay.

Klum was just recently named the fourth judge on NBC's "America's Got Talent," joining previous judges Howie Mandel and Howard Stern and fellow new judge Mel B.
