While lifeguards deal with the bluebottle invasion, they must also work quickly to assess and respond to this life-threatening emergency. We hope Leo makes a full recovery! For full episodes of Bondi Rescue, check out our Vimeo 👉 vimeo.com/ondemand/bondirescueseason16
I have autism as well. Pain for us can be extremely overstimulating because our brain doesn't process the senses quite right. It can make it feel a lot worse than what the injury is, or sometimes make me feel not enough pain. That girl was very brave
Yeah I really felt for her 🥺and her mum bless 🥹all you wanna do is give her a big cuddle but that’s probably worse:( I’m glad she was feeling better a little while later
Seeing how her mom's heart was breaking for her, oh my gosh it made me tear up myself. Poor girl, that's gotta be awful. Massive respect to you and anyone else who has to deal with that kinda thing.
I'm also autistic. Normal human touch (just the brushing of someone's fingers on my skin) can feel like an electric shock to me, so I can only imagine how much a jellyfish sting would hurt. And yeah, definitely. It's less the pain itself and more of the overload of information that comes with it. Sometimes it feels like my pain converts straight into emotional overload. Sometimes I can bear things other people find unbearable. Just depends on how my brain decides to handle it.
@Chi thank you for sharing this. I have a grandson who is autistic. He is the opposite on touch. He loves to snuggle and give hugs. Every person is different.
Prayers for Leo and his recovery. He has some life long solid friends by his side! Hats off to them and their commitment to their friend. Peace to them all.
My goodness how tragic for Leo and his loved ones! 11:04 when the gravity of the moment sinks in...incredible work they do! 11:51 she checked on him, he nods as if to say he is ok, steadying his breath as he readies to head back to Leo...amazing show of strength. 18:38 heartbroken...the fact Leo is a positive person and has Hope, even when he knew on the beach, I cried with him. I was quad-paralyzed for 8 hours due to a medication mishap during a major surgery. It was absolutely terrifying to tell your body to move and it won't and you can't make it. Love and Healing 🙏🏽 Respect
Leo’s friend is the goat. He stayed by his friends side, remained calm, and reassured him the entire way. That’s a friend for life. Prayers go out to Leo, his friends, and his family 🙏🏽🙏🏽
As a Brazilian I could barely understand what he was saying. The friend has a super thick northeastern accent, at first I thought he wasn't Brazilian at all lol The sub was kinda innacurate too
It seems Leo hasn't been able to recover the use of his body. He's still quadraplegic but is taken care of by friends and family. There's an interview on youtube with his friend (shown in this video describing what happened) from 2021. The incident happened in 2011.
As a St John Ambulance NSW First Responder and someone on the Autism Spectrum, this episode was amazing. I am very happy with the way Jasmine handled the situation, and I commend the lifeguards for *_not_* giving the Penthrox to her after doing an assessment - there are many times a pt will need care, but it doesn't have to be physical. Just be with them, and support them. Having a cocktail of mental health issues is an asset to me as an FR, as I can relate with a lot more people on a level that others might not. The topical spray is also a really good treatment option for BB stings! As for the Leo - if a pt stops breathing but is conscious and has a pulse, as long as you have a means of establishing a *_manual_* airway where you can ventilate the patient, that would be my choice. However, I understand that every organisation has different protocols and training, and you did a *fantastic* job regardless. Spinal injuries are so tragic, and I don't know if I'd cope if I sustained one. For someone who's mobility is everything, that's so shit. I am very glad he was at least able to regain independent breathing. Keep up the awesome work legends! Maybe I'll run into you at City2Surf next year!
i am autistic too and the one of the 10-year-old stung by the blue bottle hit me hard. It's difficult to see someone in so much sensory distress, it's so hard for autistic people to cope with that, especially a young child.
@@biggtrux I'm sure there are some terrible parents who would say that, but also don't use it to take away from autistic people who are genuinely struggling.
@@biggtruxautism is a diagnosis that you don't get just from bad parenting. That is really insulting to autistic people and their parents. That young lady's parents took her back to the beach to help her overcome her fears, and bless the lifeguard who talked to her❤ Mum was obviously distressed when her daughter was panicking and overwhelmed, and if she's anything like my son with autism that would be huge. If you don't know what it's like, it's probably best to keep quiet.
@@elmerennenicely said. I really felt for Mum, too. I have an autistic son who has an incredible pain threshold. If I saw him like that I would panic for sure. Kudos to everyone with autism navigating this world and to the lifeguard who went to chat to Jasmine the next day❤
Seeing the amount of blue bottle stings they get and how far they have to go to the hot showers, I feel like they need a hot water line to the lifeguard station. A hot water shower stall there would be really handy for the severe reactions that are in too much pain to go across to the promenade!
Leo I hope and pray you get as far as you can possibly go and don’t give up. Your healthy young and built like a racing horse. I wish you all the very best in your future because you do have one so fight for it. I’m truly hoping you get the use of your arms and hands at the very least because then you can have a wheelchair and freedom. If you ever need anyone to talk to please reach out because I know how important mental health is. This accident is bound to have a profound effect on you and your life but your life isn’t over. ❤
Autistic kids sometimes can't handle any treatment, even getting a bandaid put on. My grandson is autistic, and freaks out if we even mention putting a bandaid on him. It usually takes two people to get one on him. We put one on if he is bleeding.
I’m autistic as well as ADHD and that little girls reaction is not just due to the autism, it’s not purely that matter of fact it’s mostly plain old panic, overreacting, shock, pain and just her body being overwhelmed and her brain beginning to have her shut down and have a meltdown, I used to have them as well it’s a little tic, hopefully she’ll outgrow it and realize that there are worse things that can happen, I’ve been stung by a jellyfish as well and I still enjoy myself at the beach and even swim in the water, this was 2019, I’m still cautious about flags but that incident was a learning experience or me and I’ve taken it as a lesson to me as to always be careful and not run headfirst into things. There’s a saying, ‘Everything happens for a reason’ and I think the reason for that was to teach me that I need to watch myself and be aware of what’s around me, it was scary but some Advil, ice, ice cream, rest and tlc made me feel better and it healed in the end I’m left with nothing, not a mark
Forgive me my pious brothers and sisters; how can god create such a talented dancer? Then make him a quadriplegic? Leo's experience breaks my heart. How can that be god's will? To paralyze a phenomenal dancer.
@@dorizelion So still alive which was my main question I suppose. I do know that a fully quadriplegic person might regain a bit of sensation and maybe some minor movement - such as small movement of a finger or toe - but nothing else. But typically people don't live long fully immobile like this. Truly a difficult life no matter how well an individual might respond to it.
Sued the Waverly Council for more money than I will ever see in my lifetime times ten. They successfully appealed it but then he appealed the appeal and was successful. The payment was in Australian dollars too so he is a very rich man in Brazil and will be able to at least afford care. given I doubt Brazil has the social security Australia has. Probably has contributed to his long life, given his condition. But no movement sadly.
I don’t understand why they aren’t using vinegar? This is the most common remedy for this kind of sting. It neutralizes the poison. It’s almost like they enjoy watching people suffer needlessly.
Vinegar is NOT recommended for bluebottle stings. It's important to know first aid for different stings and bites in Aus. They are not all the same. Hot water is recommended for bluebottle stings, which is why lifeguards were trying to get people to the shower.
Yeahhhh anyone who has done any sort of training in beach lifeguarding knows to NOT use vinegar on bluebottles/Portuguese man of war as they are known on the USA east coast…it’s a different type of toxin 😊
That kid was in a sensory overload because she has autism like me. Our behavior is not bad, we are just reacting to the situation. She was in pain, her brain was overloading, alot of Autistic people have low pain tolerance. So don't call her having a AUTISTIC MELTDOWN, which is part of having the DISABILITY bad behavior, because it's not. Do research before you comment
Oh gosh. At 11:00 when they relay the info to Hoppo you can see the absolute horror and understanding on his face of "oh, this is *bad*". All props to him and the other lifeguards for remaining so calm and professional when dealing with one of the worst possible situations for a living patient.
Unfortunately the paralysis was permanent (if you search him up you can find some Portuguese language coverage and a fundraiser for medical expenses from quite a few years back)
The look on Deano's face while he was attending Leo and after when he got news is devastating. He knew from the beginning and still made sure to reassure them His hesitation on wrapping Leo until emt arrived just the proof of that. I hope Dean got some help with dealing with it himself. And the look Kailan gave Deano after he passed the news😢😢. Those lifeguards are heros
I dove head first into a sand bank and escaped with a headache and some neck pain. (Probably a minor concussion too, but I never got anything checked) after that experience and stories like Leo’s I’m so skeptical of diving into water. My prayers go out to him and his family.
Puuuh, da du hast Glück 🍀 gehabt. Ich würde das trotzdem untersuchen lassen. Nach Jahren können sich noch große Störungen in deinem Körper entwickeln. Bitte 🙏🏻, spring nie wieder kopfüber irgendwo rein, wenn du nicht vorher weisst, wie tief das Gewässer ist. Alles Liebe für dich ❣️
Ooof. I can't imagine what that must feel like for Leo or his friends. Defo praying for that guy! Well done everyone with interacting with the little girl too!
Not with gods help honey, with the help of paramedics, nurses, doctors, physicians ect. who work their arses off! Maybe give them some credit instead of the imaginary entity made-up by a pedophilic religion? 😘
The guy who dove in and hit the ground is heartbreaking. Where I'm from we had something like that happen. A guy who was graduating was at the beach cause all the grads go down on one of the last days.. anyways he was showing off for some girls went to run and dive into the water and dove straight into a sand bar. Paralyzed from his neck down, changed his life that day 💔
@@shellos8 that’s a very dumb conclusion you came to. Jellyfish don’t always be present in huge amounts like in this episode. During the lesser periods would have been a better time to take your baby to the beach. And if you have to give them a dip when they are there, keep a sharp eye out..but to each their own. 👍
So rare to get paralyzed while swimming and it happens to the person that should be the toughest. Doesn't matter how muscular you are or if you are a professional dancer.
Every time they use the Frightened Rabbit song on this show I get this sad nostalgic feeling. Not saying it shouldn’t be used, or that it’s disrespectful. I was just a fan on the band, despite it I’m still glad they get their music used. Rip Scott, I wish you were still here to do what you loved and experience life.
Guys, I'm from SA and my bestie is living in Aus. I am obsessed with this show! She has been to Bondi many times over the many years but have sent her to come say a big Hello from South Africa. You guys rock!
It has to be said, hope, and placebo have an unknown amount of and very powerful healing. So if he is asling for protein shakes and saying he will get better, well the worse is you waste $100 and give him hope. The best is that strange power and placebo could help him heal.
I'm in Canada and had a client who suffered the same kind of diving accident in Australia whilst on vacation with his wife and became a quadriplegic. As with quadriplegia, his body continued to break down and he passed away about 6 years later.
All beaches world wide should have Warnings about neck injuries. Then show a Wheelchair to scare swimmers straight. Jumping into unknown places is very Dangerous period. Most Diving accident victims..DONT GET A SECOND CHANCE.
While a warning perhaps could help, the wheelchair part is completely unnecessary and honestly quite ableist. Disability shouldn't be used as a threat or viewed as a punishment.
When I was 4, I was sitting on the edge of the beach making sand castles when a wave came over me. I remember the feeling like an electrical shock and I woke up with a lifeguard over me. The wave dropped 4 Portuguese Man of War on top of me. I did end up with an overnight hospital stay. 50 years later, I still remember the pain and still have a fear of the beach.
I wish only the best for you Leo, thank you to Leo's friend for everything he did through Leo's tragic accident. I hope that you get better. We love you Leo ❤ 🙏 ❤
I am so sorry for everyone involved with the man that hit his head. Certainly a moment none will ever forget. 💔 Thankful he was in the right hands. God bless Bondi lifeguards! ❤
Tan cierto lo que dijo la señorita al final de este capitulo, debemos estar agradecidos por nuestro cuerpo que funciona bien, solo cuando nos lastimamos algún miembro nos damos cuenta del valor que tiene, debemos querernos, querer a nuestro cuerpo y agradecer de que estamos bien.
I've been paralyzed for 4 months my husband always checks if my toes and finger's can move... He's Kept asking me coz knowing that the nerve is not dead

hi
White vinegar is excellent for this, you just apply it directly or leave compresses soaked in the vinegar and the pain goes away quickly.

Seeing the amount of blue bottle stings they get and how far they have to go to the hot showers, I feel like they need a hot water line to the lifeguard station. A hot water shower stall there would be really handy for the severe reactions that are in too much pain to go across to the promenade!
You’d think that with the constant sun there, they could even install a solar water heater, so all they’d need is a cold water hookup.

That's not typical. Quads can live full lives.
My heart goes out to the dancer I hope he has lots of support my adopted dad became a quadriplegic from a car accident my heart really goes out to him
They should have a hot tub located next to the tower for stings.
I hope Leo makes a full recovery.
Best wishes to Leo's recovery 🙏
Ah, I got stung by a baby bluebottle on this beach. There were so many of them!
I feel bad for the lil baby who got stung by a bluebottle
All beaches world wide should have Warnings about neck injuries. Then show a Wheelchair to scare swimmers straight. Jumping into unknown places is very Dangerous period. Most Diving accident victims..DONT GET A SECOND CHANCE.
While a warning perhaps could help, the wheelchair part is completely unnecessary and honestly quite ableist. Disability shouldn't be used as a threat or viewed as a punishment.
Soo sad for Leo praying that he may recover
THE BABY WAS SO CUUUTEEE
So incredibly sad about the young Brazilian man and his accident.
When I was 4, I was sitting on the edge of the beach making sand castles when a wave came over me. I remember the feeling like an electrical shock and I woke up with a lifeguard over me. The wave dropped 4 Portuguese Man of War on top of me. I did end up with an overnight hospital stay. 50 years later, I still remember the pain and still have a fear of the beach.
Me, who has been watching too much bondi vet with Dr. Chris: it's probably a paralysis tick, mhmm
I wish only the best for you Leo, thank you to Leo's friend for everything he did through Leo's tragic accident. I hope that you get better. We love you Leo ❤ 🙏 ❤
Ruben is lucky to be alive that blue bottle must have been one of the biggest meanest and most evil blue bottle ever
I hope that Leo is able to recover.
At this point you need a hospital and a police station at Bondi beach
Yatesy with the baby girl that got stung by a blue bottle 🥺🥺🥺🥺
the first guy was so real for that
Jasmine’s case is heartbreaking every parent’s worst nightmare realised
6:44 the chick in the background 😳
Yeah bluebottles hurt and but i hated sea lice more. Ive been attacked by both,but the blueys more growing up.😊
6:43 LOL guess the editor forgot that bit
I am so sorry for everyone involved with the man that hit his head. Certainly a moment none will ever forget. 💔
Thankful he was in the right hands.
God bless Bondi lifeguards! ❤
I hope Leo recovers soon
Wow. How small we have all become.
@@broheme8922 what do you mean?
Força Leo, de todo coraçao 😢
A goat is a critter that headbuts you with it's horns.!!!!!
I would love to know if Leo has made any progress with his recovery in the 10 years since this happened
He hasn't, if you look him up, he's still quadriplegic. :(
Dont think i could cope with jasmine
the revolut ads go on at the wrong time 😭
I pray for Leo he’s so long I feel so sad😔😔😔😔😔
Tan cierto lo que dijo la señorita al final de este capitulo, debemos estar agradecidos por nuestro cuerpo que funciona bien, solo cuando nos lastimamos algún miembro nos damos cuenta del valor que tiene, debemos querernos, querer a nuestro cuerpo y agradecer de que estamos bien.
