'Superheroes' edge over firefighters to rescue cat from burning house

Two men dressed as superheroes saved a cat that was trapped in fire.

John Buckland, who was dressed as the Caped Crusader, and his friend Troy Marcum playing Captain America, were teaching kids 'positive lessons' at the American Legion post in Milton, West Virginia, when they saw smoke coming out of a house, the New York Post reported.

According to WCHS-TV8, they reached the scene of the burning house and jumped into action.

The duo shattered a window of the house, which was empty as the homeowners were out of town, and Buckland grabbed the unconscious cat.
