Those other stand buyers who went out there relentlessly to help should be recognized as well. They didn’t give up either.

His technique is spot on for the ocean. If you watch closely toward the beginning you will see he is still rescuing ans observing the waves.. he see the next big tide come in, turns to the side head first takes them both back under and back up so they didn't get dragged again. I am SO proud of him and everyone else who tried to help. Remember if you're not trained for this type of water it's not easy to navigate but he had an army of men waiting to be able to help rescue. Kudos to the other life guard who showed up to help as well.

As a lifeguard, we are basically water EMTs and it’s really hard

I read that the young man who saved the boy told his dad later that he was not going to let go no matter what because he knew the kid was not going to make it if he did and the kid passed out during this too. he is a HERO ❤️

My son saved a little girl and her dad a few years ago in our hometown. She fell in the river and her dad couldn’t swim but tried. My son didn’t think twice and jumped in. Everybody else watched. They all survived ❤️God sent him there for a reason!

lifeguards make minimum wage and typically you have to pay to take the classes to get yourself certified
