So amazing to see the Korean man telling his story. That must be an incredible feeling for the lifeguards, knowing what an impact they've had on someone's life.
Wasn’t he such a beautiful person? Such a wonderful thing to witness. So many times that’s just not possible. It has to make their hearts swell 💗 to be involved when it works. I sob every single time I watch it.
The man at the end, saying how he will continue living brough a huge smile to my face. You kinda saw the moment when he realized how lucky he really were. Just beautiful :)
While the guy did survive, the anesthetist is the one that calmed them and coached them to slow down their CPR. What they were doing before wasn't helping at all and it was caused by the adrenaline dump. Having work so many codes it takes many codes to learn to be calm in stressful situations. They are great at rescuing people and you can tell by how calm they are when they do it. Now look at the way they behave during the cardiac arrest portion, they aren't calm, they are talking over each other, there isn't one stepping up to the be "leader" to run the code and keep things in order. The way the guy snapped at the anesthetist acting like they know what they are doing, was totally unprofessional especially when you have a person who is trained at such a superior level to them. CPR is easy and can be taught in a day. But to truly understand and perform to a competent level takes time. These guys do the best they can but they don't have the experience of a paramedic or a CRNA(Anesthetist) has in just a year.
So good to see the last guy up and walking and healthy. Great jobs to first responders and the lifeguards for their impeccable work and never giving up. I hope to see them get better and better at fine tuning their skills ❤
Ryan the way he described what he was feeling as his body was so weak from fighting to survive was unimaginable. I couldn't believe the way he talked about he knew he was going to die . It almost sounded like he was close to having an out of body experience. I watched as he tried to laugh it off but you could tell he knew thanks to the life guards that he got a second chance at life. It's so good that when people survive they come back to thank all the life guards. They risk their lives and I can tell they appreciate knowing what happens to the ones they save. Good job guys 👏❤
The double resuscitation.... never thought I'd see that moment, that was the saddest episode. I cant fly so I don't jump off of cliffs, I am not a strong swimmer so I don't go in the rips at bondi.
Probably this time when they were rude to a doctor whose specialty is keeping people alive and managing airways. Literally top specialist you want around during a resus. You don’t know what you don’t know. If they were bagging him too fast it meant they weren’t oxygenating him.
As a former CFRO from the QLD Ambulance Service, (Community First Response Officer), I can't thank the guys at Bondi enough. They have intense skill and dedication to saving lives. It's easy for an Ambulance officer to say they do the same, but these folks do it in rough seas, with sand getting everywhere, and with interference from loved ones and members of the public. Conditions far below the norm and even in extreme circumstances they perform above and beyond my wildest imaginations, to perform miracles. You guys are really the guardians of the sea for Bondi. Countless lives have been saved as a direct result of the care and attention you focus on that beach. Thank you for your continued service and skill. Keep doing what your do, With Sincerest Regards from a former QAS Ambo.
@@wheresmyparadeI know you didn’t ask my opinion (sorry lol!) so feel free to completely disregard this but I thought it was interesting that you brought up the anesthesiologist in particular because I was wondering a little about that too at the time when I first watched it as well. I got the impression that he really was just trying to help with a relevant piece of potentially critical or significantly important advice/guidance but that in such a chaotic and dynamic situation, “too many cooks in the kitchen” so to speak might have been more harm than good in that particular instance. It probably does vary though as each situation and emergency is truly unique and possibly being able to allow or incorporate assistance from a more highly qualified medical professional like a doctor who happens to be a bystander could be actually beneficial *when it’s feasible and appropriate* which just wasn’t exactly the case in this instance- although I do kind of credit the anesthesiologist and fully understand what he was saying and why he was trying to step in here. It’s such a credit to the goodness of the bystanders and people there though, because often so many times in those situations either surfers will go to help swimmers who are struggling until the lifeguards can reach them, for example, and those types of people really are a testament to the sincerity and good will of Australians in general as a whole. Y’all are great and I always love seeing these episodes or spending time with the Australians that I do know or happen to encounter or have an interaction with in everyday life 💕💕💕💕 Never change! Lol.
24:24 The friend of the man who almost died from drowning is a true friend truly concerned for his friends health and all he wanted to do was help him and see his friend just make sure he was ok🥺
Even if you aren't a First Responder, or ever plan to be, EVERYONE should learn CPR. The more people in an emergency who knows it, the higher chances of survival, just cause it's so tiring.
@@ascheparker2340ere in the uk when I was in high school I think it was we learned cpr mouth to mouth etc recovery position etc, however I don't know if they still do it anymore, just had search and it is aswell as why and when defies would need to be used which is good
@@afriendlycadian9857 I've got a kid in school and they still do the CPR training in the UK. Our community centre also offers free First Aid and paediatric CPR courses. I did the training too when I was in school, such a sensible approach!
Lifeguards have SUCH a different experience with resus than we do in the emergency service... If they start CPR it's usually on a healthy young body who has an easily treatable reason for the heart stoppage, so they usually do CPR for a few minutes and then get a pulse back. Meanwhile we usually CPR on elderly patient with an unknown intervall without treatment and no immediately treatable cause. I talked to a lifeguard once and told him that it was sort of a miracle to get a pulse back and nobody ever is lucid after CPR - and he just looked at me as if I said drinking one beer was deadly. He didn't realise that HIS experience was the unusual one and that CPR after drowing is one of the very few cases where CPR has a positive record (as in: more people get a pulse back than don't)...
wow that man was legit dead for so long and doesn't have brain damage or anything and comes back to the beach so soon afterwards. That's a true mircle and he's clearly here for a reason. Good job lifeguards!
He describe what all person who have drowned have experienced. Fighting and staying in apnea is hurting and difficult. But when you finally give up, it became quiet and comfortable, before your brain shut you down. Death is often a peaceful place, almost telling you that "it is ok, you can let go now".
I feel like him seeing the video after dying with everyone really brought it into perspective when he said, "Oh my god I was dead." lol It really lightened the mood as well.
You guys are amazing. You really help me understand what things I need to do to be a better first aider. You might not believe me but in my first aid courses, we use episodes of Bondi Rescue to understand what we need to do to be great first aiders. So thank you so much for your hard work and thank you for your service.
CPR is one of the most confronting and exhausting things I have ever had to do. This footage brought back the panic and sadness that I felt for the person. I’m so glad the lifeguards got to debrief afterwards and learn what they did well and could have done better. I am so glad the man survived and they all got the closure they needed seeing he was alive and well. I didn’t get any debriefing or closure and I don’t know if the man survived, therapy helped a bit but this brought it all back for me. I wish everyone knew CPR so we could give everyone the same chance as this guy. CPR stays with you forever I think.
This scene, of the yound korean thay drowned has been shown in my cpr training many times. Always gets to me every single time. That young man was so lucky from the minite the ex lifeguard found him, to the training and composure of the lifeguards. Wow
As a Dutch person who grew up at the coast we had a lot of German tourists go out for a swim in the sea over here, the amount of people that weren't able to swim or that weren't decent swimmers always scares the heck out of me. Honestly can't enjoy the beaches because I'm on alert mode 24/7.
Saving a life is an amazing and humbling feeling. I used to work as a volunteer nurse at a high school and taught first aid after school. I know the feeling because I saved my friend's life myself years ago. She was bit by over 27 fire ants and went into anaphylactic shock and stopped breathing. I praise God that not only did I know CPR , but I could also save her life.
I have great respect for these lifesavers as vital service. My brother was 41/2 when he drowned and I’ve almost drowned twice once when I was 2 and once when I was in my 30’s when I got caught in a rip. I would not wish it on my worst enemy. Being caught in a rip you have no control over anything. God bless all the lifesavers and all of us that have come back from the brink. I often think that my brother who died is always watching over me. God bless all of you please be careful in the water🙏🏻
Jeez that last kind, Ryan, had me in tears… I’m a mama and I just hurt for that poor boy without his mama there to comfort him… BUT, Lordy! He had some good ass lifeguards and god on his side!!!
I am trained in CPR & the first thing they teach us is when you’re working as a unit, you stay as a unit. Having someone interrupting and giving instructions can lead to big mistakes. It doesn’t matter how skilled someone else is; they all have to communicate with one another to get their job done so i get why they brushed the man off. They weren’t all talking over each other either, they were definitely communicating with each other they were just loud. Chest compressions didn’t look too fast to me, but with that much water in the lungs i’m guessing they were trying to get as much out as possible while trying to get a pulse back. Not doing chest compressions right away could have been a matter of life or death.
The man was an ANAESTHETIST. That is top of the list of doctors you want during a resus, it’s literally their specialty. I think he was telling them to slow down with the bagging, if you go too fast, you are not oxygenating the person properly. Same with compressions, you need to let the heart expand to perfuse properly. If I was passed out and found out later someone told an anaesthetist to bugger off, I’d be fuming.
That last one made me cry man. I just got back from myrtle beach and someone did drown while we were there, but it was far down the beach and I didn’t want to walk over and intrude. I really hope they’re alright too.
So glad when they manage to bring someone back from the brink of death, but imagine how scary it would be for the patient. I mean, one minute you're in the water and the next second you're lying on your back on the beach surrounded by complete strangers.
I suffered hypothermia when cross country skiing in the mountains of BC. The weather was strange and everyone was over working in the warm weather. I noticed that I could not see and was having difficulty with functioning. When I joined the others in the van they started trying to warm me up. When I finally got warm in the bathtub putting warm water over me. I realized how close I came to not making it. Next time I’ll do totally different things.
In summer months and in the school holidays, full time lifeguards are supplemented with "clubbies". Every main beach in the country has a Surf (lifesaving) Club staffed by volunteers. It starts with the Nippers. These are kids from the age of 6 who train for their bronze medallion and become surf lifesavers when they are older. These clubbies patrol all beaches and save countless lives every year. The last count there were 190,000 such volunteers across 319 clubs around the country. In 2022, the performed over 4,000 rescues. If you are planning to swim at one of our beautiful beaches, only do so between the red and yellow flags, nowhere else. If the beach is unpatrolled, do not go in. If you have moved to our country please take swimming lessons and your children too. If you don't, the beach is not for you.
live on an island in the US, a summer beach resort, know many surfers, much respect to the recreational surfers, that step up, when see someone in trouble and huge respect to the lifeguards.
Every buggy should each have it's own Defib loaded on, every second counts and if dudeman can't leave the tower and no one was around to run it to the patient then what.
Defibs are very expensive and somewhat sensitive pieces of equipment. It looks like they leave their buggies out in all states of weather. That would possibly destroy the defib. Plus if it was stolen it's also a lot of money lost. I wish it was easier to keep on the buggy but with the cost it's just not plausible
@@ashe1020 have to agree with ye there, would be lovely to have a defib on all the buggys and probably ease a lot of stress but it's completely unrealistic
They are very expensive, have specific ways it should be kept and i know out here in The Netherlands they even get stolen while locked on walls so, having them on buggy's that may have at times no lifeguard with it because they do rescues etc, its a big risk. So its not realistic to have one on every buggy
I know how annoying it is when a bystandard runs in saying they’re a whatever (anything besides a paramedic or actual Paramedic (not a basic) then just stand back… BUT… the anesthetic or whatever he said he is was right… I know adrenaline and the urgency of it can make you work fast but that was too fast, you gotta allow the heart to actually re-expand and when you’re going that fast you’re not perfuming enough oxygen. Just glad they were able to get him back!
Yes! The anesthesist tried to made some very valid corrections, i cringed when they completely dismissed him by saying they have those this loads of times.
He's an anesthetist/anesthesiologist. It's a physician (doctor) specialised in anesthesia, intensive care medicine, critical emergency medicine, and pain medicine. He's a highly trained specialist for resuscitations and has definitely more experience than a paramedic, let alone the lifeguards.
An anaesthetist is the top doctor you want around during resus, it’s literally who other doctors call in the hospital. They are the kings of the airway and keeping people alive. They were absolutely bagging too fast and he was asking if they had a LAM to literally be more efficient. Their rudeness was uncalled for. Also under his AHPRA conditions, he was probably obligated to offer aid.
Hate that they didnt listen to the anestesists very valid comments and dismissed them by saying "weve done this loads of times, we know what we are doing". He said to stop talking over another, slow down compressions, he clearly had done this loads of times more. Thats my take as an er nurse, also experienced in cpr. They should have used this guys experience.
He clearly was allowed to help them as you can see him managing his airway... But also they HAVE successfully done it before many many times. They have a system they follow and are used to communicating with each other in emergency situations. They do it all day every day. Their method of communication is going to be very different to a hospital setting because the nature of their work is very different. That doesn't mean the communication isn't effective for them and their team. And him interrupting them isn't helpful at all, even if he has a point. They're not just doing CPR. They're trying to get a defib over, organise an ambulance and relay the info over radio, listen for updates for other potential emergencies, clean the guy up for the defib, crowd control etc. And he's stopping them doing that.
But in training they teach us to be organized, and that everyone has a job to do on the team, so having someone not an official part of that team giving out orders could lead to confusion and deadly mistakes. They did the right thing maintaining control.
These guys are skilled and experienced in way more than saving swimmers .tbey like A@E staff . . They are able to assess a patient ,decide what measures to take ,be sensative to loved ones on scene ,jump start people back from dead and do crowd control just after powering out in surf,risking tbeir lives ,in rips,draging limp bodie or bodies on board ,getting thrashed around in waves. If i was to ever get in trouble in tbe ocean ,i would just hope i was at bondi beach ... 16:59
Everyone is talking about how the lifeguards saved the last guy's life but nobody talks about the jogger who trusted the lifeguard in the tower enough to run the defibrillator down the beach. That man deserves thanks to even if the part he played seems small
The fella that was given CPR, when he saw that footage of himself 😭. He tried to shake it off with some laughter when he realized the full extent of his rescue.
I can only assume Martina rejected the hospital trip because she didn’t want to have to cover the costs herself. I cannot stress this enough: when traveling abroad GET 👏🏻 HEALTH 👏🏻 INSURANCE 👏🏻 REGARDLESS OF WHERE YOU ARE GOING!!
It's true, that was a close call, and we're so relieved the outcome was positive. Miracles indeed happen, and the bond of the lifeguards plays a crucial role. 🙏💙
That gave me chills in the best way when he was walking alive and seeing the shock in his eyes when he watched the video of his death but not death crazy if I ever have to drown I want to be in there hands!
glad the debriefing was shown with the drowned man as when I was watching his rescue I was feeling shocked they had put the oxygen mask on with his head facing upwards while water was pouring out of his mouth, so glad that got bought up in the debrief. The bomb incident was crazy.
I’m from Southern Ontario Canada 🇨🇦 and this is the second time I’ve watched one of your videos. I’m really happy that I’ve found you. I do have to say that you fellas are Truly Handsome, but Hoppo, I think it’s love at first sight with you. Lol. But seriously, you guys do your jobs very quickly and Great. Please take care of yourselves and don’t let these idiots get to you. ♥️♥️♥️♥️🇬🇧🇨🇦
Watching that last clip is actually quite embarrassing. Only because of all the bystanders. Of course you're going to want to know what's going on, and you're going to want to look, that's human nature... But to form a big circle around lifeguards performing CPR on a dead person is so embarrassing. Especially those adults that allow their young kids to stand there and watch. It's actually quite disgusting.
I’ve regularly wished for these bystanders to make this circle… but facing the other way. Block the people who are nosy and will decide to keep clapping, distracting the first responders. There’s no excuse to watch - you are engrossed in what is happening to a man who is truly dead, and his friend who is already grieving. EDIT: I wrote “who is truly friend” wow. I’m glad I caught that before someone commented.
It's an extremely scary situation to witness. Unless you've been in a similar scenario you don't know how you will respond, but when something this traumatic is going on it's natural to be unable to look away. They're not doing it on purpose to be rude, they're desperate to see the guy brought back. Plus, you just watched a video of it, so you're no better.
@@mindyxm Considering I don't know what clips are going to be in the video... How do you also know that I watched the whole clips... Loads of assumptions there buddy! I have been in similar situations, and no, I don't stand in a circle around the individual and stare directly at them. People that do that do not care about the life of that person, they are nosy and want gossip. That's all it's about. It's also VERY disrespectful.

As an American, stuck in the land of ammunition, the knife one blows me away. 🥺 Imagine being so safe that a KNIFE is what catches peoples’ attention.
Was looking for this comment. I agree.
Yeah this shocked me too. Imagine if we did this in America how many senseless shootings we might have avoided and could still avoid 😢 unreal
US situation re guns is very sad imo. Easier to get guns than lottery tickets/cigarettes or alcohol for kids. Astounding
You can kill someone even with a tomato knife?
I so agree and am a fellow American.
Saving a life is an amazing and humbling feeling. I used to work as a volunteer nurse at a high school and taught first aid after school. I know the feeling because I saved my friend's life myself years ago. She was bit by over 27 fire ants and went into anaphylactic shock and stopped breathing. I praise God that not only did I know CPR , but I could also save her life.
"only got a green whistle and a radio." funny but so real.
These lifeguards are absolutely amazing!! To see that young man walk in in high spirits brought me to 😢 Thank goodness for Bondi Lifeguards 🎉🎉❤❤
I have great respect for these lifesavers as vital service. My brother was 41/2 when he drowned and I’ve almost drowned twice once when I was 2 and once when I was in my 30’s when I got caught in a rip. I would not wish it on my worst enemy. Being caught in a rip you have no control over anything. God bless all the lifesavers and all of us that have come back from the brink. I often think that my brother who died is always watching over me. God bless all of you please be careful in the water🙏🏻
Jeeez……I’m just crying my eyes out, then laughing, then crying!!!
You guys are phenomenal ❤💛❤️🩹🙌🏻 we love you guys🇦🇺, all the way from 🇬🇧🥰
That is the kind of friendship that makes me cry 😭 its so sweet
To Ryan. Im soso happy you survived, because you light up a room with your laugh💖✌🏻
That’s was heart wrenching to see the guy almost died. Congrats to the lifeguard’s! 💖💕
Jeez that last kind, Ryan, had me in tears… I’m a mama and I just hurt for that poor boy without his mama there to comfort him… BUT, Lordy! He had some good ass lifeguards and god on his side!!!
I am trained in CPR & the first thing they teach us is when you’re working as a unit, you stay as a unit. Having someone interrupting and giving instructions can lead to big mistakes. It doesn’t matter how skilled someone else is; they all have to communicate with one another to get their job done so i get why they brushed the man off. They weren’t all talking over each other either, they were definitely communicating with each other they were just loud. Chest compressions didn’t look too fast to me, but with that much water in the lungs i’m guessing they were trying to get as much out as possible while trying to get a pulse back. Not doing chest compressions right away could have been a matter of life or death.
The man was an ANAESTHETIST. That is top of the list of doctors you want during a resus, it’s literally their specialty. I think he was telling them to slow down with the bagging, if you go too fast, you are not oxygenating the person properly. Same with compressions, you need to let the heart expand to perfuse properly. If I was passed out and found out later someone told an anaesthetist to bugger off, I’d be fuming.
That last one made me cry man. I just got back from myrtle beach and someone did drown while we were there, but it was far down the beach and I didn’t want to walk over and intrude. I really hope they’re alright too.
So glad when they manage to bring someone back from the brink of death, but imagine how scary it would be for the patient. I mean, one minute you're in the water and the next second you're lying on your back on the beach surrounded by complete strangers.
Ive watched this vid like 4 times and im still wondering of the family got there cricket bat back😂
Legit,aha they would have
What a fantastic job them guys do.saving lives all the time. Unsung heroes 👏
I love you, Bondi and you’re a good savers. I wish I could be one of you one day.
I suffered hypothermia when cross country skiing in the mountains of BC. The weather was strange and everyone was over working in the warm weather. I noticed that I could not see and was having difficulty with functioning. When I joined the others in the van they started trying to warm me up. When I finally got warm in the bathtub putting warm water over me. I realized how close I came to not making it. Next time I’ll do totally different things.
Why are Australian people so beautiful
Oh stop it! 😳
you KNOW these guys love each other
Man. That had to have been such a crazy thing to watch back, and experience. Glad he was okay. 25:44
The last rescue was phenomenal
Saving lives is a wonderful thing to see. Professionals finely tuned.
In summer months and in the school holidays, full time lifeguards are supplemented with "clubbies". Every main beach in the country has a Surf (lifesaving) Club staffed by volunteers. It starts with the Nippers. These are kids from the age of 6 who train for their bronze medallion and become surf lifesavers when they are older. These clubbies patrol all beaches and save countless lives every year. The last count there were 190,000 such volunteers across 319 clubs around the country. In 2022, the performed over 4,000 rescues.
If you are planning to swim at one of our beautiful beaches, only do so between the red and yellow flags, nowhere else. If the beach is unpatrolled, do not go in. If you have moved to our country please take swimming lessons and your children too. If you don't, the beach is not for you.
good job bringing this person back to life
“The best weapon to bring to a knife fight is probably a taser or a gun, which the police have. I’m armed with a taser and a gun.” - Harrison
live on an island in the US, a summer beach resort, know many surfers, much respect to the recreational surfers, that step up, when see someone in trouble and huge respect to the lifeguards.
Every buggy should each have it's own Defib loaded on, every second counts and if dudeman can't leave the tower and no one was around to run it to the patient then what.
Defibs are very expensive and somewhat sensitive pieces of equipment. It looks like they leave their buggies out in all states of weather. That would possibly destroy the defib. Plus if it was stolen it's also a lot of money lost. I wish it was easier to keep on the buggy but with the cost it's just not plausible
@@ashe1020 have to agree with ye there, would be lovely to have a defib on all the buggys and probably ease a lot of stress but it's completely unrealistic
They are very expensive, have specific ways it should be kept and i know out here in The Netherlands they even get stolen while locked on walls so, having them on buggy's that may have at times no lifeguard with it because they do rescues etc, its a big risk.
So its not realistic to have one on every buggy
Bondi is so lucky to have such gifted talented caring safeguards aside from good looking gentlemen.❤
I know how annoying it is when a bystandard runs in saying they’re a whatever (anything besides a paramedic or actual Paramedic (not a basic) then just stand back… BUT… the anesthetic or whatever he said he is was right… I know adrenaline and the urgency of it can make you work fast but that was too fast, you gotta allow the heart to actually re-expand and when you’re going that fast you’re not perfuming enough oxygen. Just glad they were able to get him back!
Yes! The anesthesist tried to made some very valid corrections, i cringed when they completely dismissed him by saying they have those this loads of times.
He's an anesthetist/anesthesiologist. It's a physician (doctor) specialised in anesthesia, intensive care medicine, critical emergency medicine, and pain medicine. He's a highly trained specialist for resuscitations and has definitely more experience than a paramedic, let alone the lifeguards.
An anaesthetist is the top doctor you want around during resus, it’s literally who other doctors call in the hospital. They are the kings of the airway and keeping people alive. They were absolutely bagging too fast and he was asking if they had a LAM to literally be more efficient. Their rudeness was uncalled for. Also under his AHPRA conditions, he was probably obligated to offer aid.
Hate that they didnt listen to the anestesists very valid comments and dismissed them by saying "weve done this loads of times, we know what we are doing". He said to stop talking over another, slow down compressions, he clearly had done this loads of times more. Thats my take as an er nurse, also experienced in cpr. They should have used this guys experience.
Maybe as they can't be sure the person is actually a professional, they do as they learn. Not sure of their protocol
He clearly was allowed to help them as you can see him managing his airway... But also they HAVE successfully done it before many many times. They have a system they follow and are used to communicating with each other in emergency situations. They do it all day every day. Their method of communication is going to be very different to a hospital setting because the nature of their work is very different. That doesn't mean the communication isn't effective for them and their team. And him interrupting them isn't helpful at all, even if he has a point. They're not just doing CPR. They're trying to get a defib over, organise an ambulance and relay the info over radio, listen for updates for other potential emergencies, clean the guy up for the defib, crowd control etc. And he's stopping them doing that.
But in training they teach us to be organized, and that everyone has a job to do on the team, so having someone not an official part of that team giving out orders could lead to confusion and deadly mistakes. They did the right thing maintaining control.
@@hparis9462 what, and a specialist doctor is NOT trained to do that??? The order is the same in resus wherever you are, hospital or on the street.
These guys are skilled and experienced in way more than saving swimmers .tbey like A@E staff . . They are able to assess a patient ,decide what measures to take ,be sensative to loved ones on scene ,jump start people back from dead and do crowd control just after powering out in surf,risking tbeir lives ,in rips,draging limp bodie or bodies on board ,getting thrashed around in waves. If i was to ever get in trouble in tbe ocean ,i would just hope i was at bondi beach ... 16:59
It was so good seeing them revive the student. 😭❤️
Everyone is talking about how the lifeguards saved the last guy's life but nobody talks about the jogger who trusted the lifeguard in the tower enough to run the defibrillator down the beach. That man deserves thanks to even if the part he played seems small
Legends , all of you ❤
I once has hyperthermia and I was left untreated for 2 hours I was almost fatal so I’m just grateful to be alive rn! Dw I was treated after 2 hours..
You know your a good old fashioned merican when it’s shocking to you how much lifeguards and police respond to the knife incident
3:44 I couldn't stop laughing " The cops are armed with a taser and a gun, and im armed with a green whistle and a radio"
I will never understand how people… who know they can’t swim… will go swimming
Exactly! 🥴😵💫🤷🏻♀️
These lifeguards are amazing
7:13 he treats the board like its apart of his body, thats so cool!!
Dude is everyone in Australia that good-lookin? I've never seen anything like it.
2:32 it looks like reidy asks the family for a bat while the dude with the knife is standing close by
you guys are super heroes
My mum loves watching you just like me ❤🎉
The fella that was given CPR, when he saw that footage of himself 😭. He tried to shake it off with some laughter when he realized the full extent of his rescue.
It must've been such a crazy experience to watch! We're sure he is buzzing on life now after coming so close to tragedy! 🥺
I can only assume Martina rejected the hospital trip because she didn’t want to have to cover the costs herself. I cannot stress this enough: when traveling abroad GET 👏🏻 HEALTH 👏🏻 INSURANCE 👏🏻 REGARDLESS OF WHERE YOU ARE GOING!!
Not the US. Essential and urgent hospital treatment is free in Australia.
In AUS its free.
Glad I found you guys. I don't see you on Facebook anymore. Good job guys.
Wow bondi beach lifeguards are awesome 👏👏👏
I love seeing these guys in action
What's your favourite scene from the show? 😁
Quick quote we in hawaii use. "If in doubt,dont go out" simple and easy to know
He did the "Harry bolt" 😂
That was very hard to watch. A human life was almost lost. 😢 Miracles do happen and he is one of many.
It's true, that was a close call, and we're so relieved the outcome was positive. Miracles indeed happen, and the bond of the lifeguards plays a crucial role. 🙏💙
That gave me chills in the best way when he was walking alive and seeing the shock in his eyes when he watched the video of his death but not death crazy if I ever have to drown I want to be in there hands!
glad the debriefing was shown with the drowned man as when I was watching his rescue I was feeling shocked they had put the oxygen mask on with his head facing upwards while water was pouring out of his mouth, so glad that got bought up in the debrief. The bomb incident was crazy.
ong i’ve been bingewatching these
"Can i borrow your cricket bat?" so aussie
Thank u guys for the beautiful work u do the life's u save God bless you all ❤
I love how he borrowed a cricket bad
Hi api am Aussie as well and my dad has been caught in a rip and his brother and I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!!!!!!
I’m from Southern Ontario Canada 🇨🇦 and this is the second time I’ve watched one of your videos. I’m really happy that I’ve found you. I do have to say that you fellas are Truly Handsome, but Hoppo, I think it’s love at first sight with you. Lol. But seriously, you guys do your jobs very quickly and Great. Please take care of yourselves and don’t let these idiots get to you. ♥️♥️♥️♥️🇬🇧🇨🇦
`i am just watching this man in front me going into peoples houses like spider man - Harrison ` that was so funny
He has a special way of describing situations 😂
I LOVE YOUR SHOW ❤ YOU SAVE LIVES EVERYDAY GOOD JOB ❤
the video was amazing but something i found funny was that at the end he was like"i was dead hahhah" i i found that funny
Watching that last clip is actually quite embarrassing. Only because of all the bystanders. Of course you're going to want to know what's going on, and you're going to want to look, that's human nature... But to form a big circle around lifeguards performing CPR on a dead person is so embarrassing. Especially those adults that allow their young kids to stand there and watch. It's actually quite disgusting.
I’ve regularly wished for these bystanders to make this circle… but facing the other way. Block the people who are nosy and will decide to keep clapping, distracting the first responders. There’s no excuse to watch - you are engrossed in what is happening to a man who is truly dead, and his friend who is already grieving.
EDIT: I wrote “who is truly friend” wow. I’m glad I caught that before someone commented.
I agree
Parents letting their kids watch are sick in the head ...imagine wanting to see someone die
It's an extremely scary situation to witness. Unless you've been in a similar scenario you don't know how you will respond, but when something this traumatic is going on it's natural to be unable to look away. They're not doing it on purpose to be rude, they're desperate to see the guy brought back. Plus, you just watched a video of it, so you're no better.
@@mindyxm Considering I don't know what clips are going to be in the video... How do you also know that I watched the whole clips... Loads of assumptions there buddy! I have been in similar situations, and no, I don't stand in a circle around the individual and stare directly at them. People that do that do not care about the life of that person, they are nosy and want gossip. That's all it's about. It's also VERY disrespectful.
The last clip is gnarly😢
Wow! You blokes are AMAZING❤❤❤
Imagine how surreal it is, seeing footage of you being clinically dead and watching several people you don't know from Adam bring you back.
It must be the trippiest thing! A second chance at life 🙏
