  Ndamukong Suh's episode of 'Celebrity Diving' hasn't landed yet, but the Detroit Lions defensive tackle is already making waves.

  During a practice session Wednesday, Suh saved fellow diving contestant comedian Louie Anderson who began sinking from "sheer exhaustion" according to TMZ.

  Anderson was attempting to climb out of the pool when he became too fatigued and fell back in. The report is equal parts sad and harrowing:

  via TMZ

  Louie -- who's a contestant on the show -- was practicing his dives on Wednesday when he became a little too bushed to pull himself up the ladder ... falling back into the water again and again.

  Suh, and Olympian Greg Louganis, lifted Anderson out of the pool.

  Some of Suh's teammates had been nervous about the 6-foot-4 307-pound Pro Bowl defensive tackle taking part in the competition, and risking injury on the high dive.

  If Anderson tires again, the high dive won't be the only injury risk facing Suh.
