@dailymailau: The lifeguard has opted to remain anonymous, but photographer Scott Vander Dussan, who filmed the rescue, has told Daily Mail the teen is only on his first year on the job 😮 #fyp #rescue #ocean #lifeguard #hero
That’s someone’s baby, risking their life for someone else’s baby ❤️

That’s a hero. This is amazing. If you’ve ever experienced strong waves you know how impossibly hard this was. it looks harder but it was 10x harder than it looks.
