In the interview, Mrs. Shoff explained that the twins are in toddler beds, and often play in their room for a few minutes before she comes to get them in the morning. The incident occurred about 8:20 a.m., shortly after they had awoken for the day. When she saw on the monitor that their dresser had tipped over, she says, “I ripped off the covers, ran downstairs, flung open the door and saw them quietly playing in the corner by their crib.” The twins were uninjured, and it seemed, not even upset by their ordeal.
She says she and her husband told Bowdy how proud they were of what he did for his brother, but that he was unfazed by his own heroism. “…he just told us that he wanted to watch his show,” she recounted.
Below you can see an interview of the whole Shoff family on CNN, describing the incident and how they bravely released the video to build awareness about safety, even though they knew they would face some judgment. And, you can see the full heart-pounding video of Bowdy rescuing Brock here.
