im glad to see people actually realising how dangerous the situation they were in and ACTUALLY thanking the lifeguards not just laughing and running off lile nothing happened BIG UP THE BONDI CREW ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'm so sorry to hear about the tough time you are going through..it is great when you can watch something, and it takes your mind off the situation..l hope you have someone you cam talk to to let the stress and sadness you are feeling out..that's very important..l hope you're OK.. I'm an oldie, so I have seen and heard most things .. l will keep you in my prayers.. you don't have to believe ..as long as l do..😂 🇬🇧💕🙏✝️👍👏🌊🏄♂️🇦🇨
800m in 13 mins is actually quite fast, that's not an easy target at all. That's 32 lengths of the pool, and you'd have to do each length between 20 and 23 seconds. To be off by 9 seconds would be heartbreaking.
@Insane_editzzz very good, obviously you're a competitive swimmer, just imagine one of your classmates who isn't a swimmer trying to do an 800, they'd be lucky to do it in under 13mins.
Love this channel! Grew up on beaches that never got busier than maybe 1000 at most, and in towns barely over 20 thousand so the idea of a beach with more people than there is in my town? Crazy
It surprising to me... I'm 42, a little bit over 1 year ago, I've never done 25meter swim, and I couldn't do 25meter non stop. And now, I can do 400m in 8m56sec. And that is with me stopping because I haven't practice flipping at the wall yet. I'm overweight a little bit, I, never really did sport, rarely go to the gym, and my work is sitting in front of my computer all day and night. When I see things like this, I realized how much potential I wasted by not doing more sport when younger and take better care of my body. But I try (and fail often), now ! I've actually started the local lifeguard course (for pool, nothing extreme like Bondi beach). There is 3 level of training, the first level is you need to do 12min for 400m, second level 11min for 400m, and the last level is 10min for 400m (so easier than Bondi requirements). I'm 2 class before finishing level 2 now, which will allow me to work as an assistant lifeguard ! I won't be working as a lifeguard except voluntary work at the local pool, but I find these training really interesting, and great way to test one self.
Bro I can’t even say how much I want to work here, though sadly I’m not an Aussie I really want to be a life guard. If I ever get the chance to come to Australia I will definitely take it. Also I’m in the middle of a junior life guard training but for swimming pools ❤
Brutal but totally necessary. I would have thought veterans who miss the grade should be given priority allocation for less demanding jobs so they could still remain part of the team
I do not understand why so many people are so careless about ocean water safety. The coastline near me is a wild tangle of lava rock, thick forest, remote access points and beaches. Even along the inhabitated zones there are no lifeguards. You understand if you are on the beach let along go into the water you are going to have to get yourself out. Professional rescue help is at best 10-15 minutes away and will likely be by boat or dingy not from the shore. Along most of the coast it will be a much, much longer wait to get help. And that assumes the rescue crew can get close enough with all the underwater and semi underwater rock formation. Sadly people die every year because they underestimate the danger. Never turn your back fully to the water for long and respect the ocean because it is a dangerous place. Stop before you hit your physical limits because it is unforgiving of mistakes.
@@BondiRescue Oregon coast. I spent much of my life going there every few months. I love it and I feel wonderfully alive there and to stay alive you find the rhythm of nature and follow it. Edit: I forgot to mention almost no reliable cell service. Depending on location a rescue might use a helicopter but the wind and fog can quickly make that type of rescue impossible.
When the product is swimming... You cant discourage the product. So lifesaving as best you can is the best we can do... When i went to Florida, i was tempted by my outodoor hotel unguarded pool everytime I walked by. Until i spotted the 6' gator in the bottom. I will never swim outdoors in Florida again. (I did as a kid. My Dad and older brother spotted some barracuda. They went over to them. I got out of the water. I was 9.)
Some times that beach looks a little chaotic. If it was up t me, I'd divide the beach by quadrants or lanes. Each section would be manned by a lifeguard. Then, I would issue numbers or letter for people who want to go in the water with an hour to two hour limit per group so that everyone has a chance to get in the water. You can tell people over PA system when they can go in the water and when they need to leave in order to allow the following group to enjoy the water. I think it would be more humane for the lifeguards to manage the crowds and it would be safer for beach goers. But, what do I know?
@@randil3208 Interesting bc it has been done in other parts of the world and it works just fine. Some Spain beaches have that system and it works perfectly fine.
You need AI cameras that looks for struggling swimmers I would donate funds and support that for a go fund me project if you amazing bondi rescuers did it
Their communication always seems so ineffective. "Please be careful, please walk over to the flags." Like no, just be frank and say "ALERT: you are standing in a rip current. Come in and go to the flagged areas or you will be swept to sea."
that was my first impression, she didnt bring in many people but when you think about it what she did is very important, because there were so many swimmers asking for help, what if someone was going under and goes unnoticed? if someone had drown there, then we would be saying that they didnt pay enough attention wouldnt we

Does anyone know if the test standards are the same for the women as the men?
Massive respect to the cubies who volunteer everyday to rescue peope in Bondi. Amazing work by both lifeguards and cubies..
Lifeguards are always grateful for the support of the clubbies 💙
Actually they are only there on weekends
@@bend8353 Well they are volunteers cant expect them to be there as much as the full timers. The weekends would be where its crazy busy anyway
im glad to see people actually realising how dangerous the situation they were in and ACTUALLY thanking the lifeguards not just laughing and running off lile nothing happened BIG UP THE BONDI CREW ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Lifeguards always appreciate it when people can recognise their mistakes 💙
Love that Matt D got a retest. That was very sweet of the team leaders, and he looked so happy when he heard his time ❤

So thrilled to see we can catch her in future Bondi episodes 🙌🏼 You Go Girl 🇺🇸🥰 They're all so impressive
Thanks for being life guards and protecting us
Shoutout to the Clubbies for always volunteering and helping❤️💛❤️💛
Always giving the lifeguards a hand when they need it 💪
Love this channel! Grew up on beaches that never got busier than maybe 1000 at most, and in towns barely over 20 thousand so the idea of a beach with more people than there is in my town? Crazy

She's such a legend 💪
That’s my last name lol❤

That's amazing! Good luck with all your training 💪
I trained to be a life guard at our pool when I was a teen. I chickened out. I couldn't wrap my head around losing someone.
Sending cheers and aloha from Hawai'i! Love this show. Battling depression and this brings smiles to my day!
I never get tired of seeing the lovely boys in blue.👏👏👏 Hugs from Chile 🤗🤗🤗
Maxi has already been there for 8 years?! Good to see Nicola join, I know she's not there currently but it will be good to see the crew mix it up!
Bondi are the best lifeguards ever
we love you bondi yall amazing. everything we apreciate you guys so much❤
Shout out to the volunteer lifeguards that need their own show ❤
Have you seen Coast Rescue? They have videos of NZ clubbies, Piha Rescue for example.
Those waves are massive !
Bondi beach has some crazy conditions! 😱
THIS IS THE ONLY THING I WATCH AT THE MOMENT I LOVE THIS I REALLY WANT TO COME HERE
14:18 lol almsot drowns and ur mum tells you off 😂😂
You guys are amazing.
Great job 👍 you go girl!
Best lifeguards ever !!

The Australian accent is my absolute favorite (I’m American)
I'm glad they let Matt Dee give it another go.
Brutal but totally necessary. I would have thought veterans who miss the grade should be given priority allocation for less demanding jobs so they could still remain part of the team
Yes , my Uncle was a rescuer at Bondi on the mass rescue in the 40'
Thank you for your videos❤. Your real live heros ❤. God bless you & send you love from Romania❤
I love bondi rescue you all work so hard!!
Edit:should I go to bondi?
@2:55 is that Bondi Magnet Fisher extraordinaire Leigh?!
I love these videos it teaches also

Desde España Un saludo grande campeones!!!!😮🎉❤
I love watching the videos
Who loves bondi❤❤❤❤👇👇👇👇
Meeeee!!! ❤❤

best channel ever
that ocean there is not a friendly one
No ocean anywhere is friendly. The Pacific is just as dangerous as all the others. 😉
@@AndrewTBP yeah exactly
Who are the two that left this season? 🇨🇦❤️
I have a question Bondi can you get photos with the life guards if they are walking around the beach not doing anything?
No
No
Yeah you can I have a photo with em
@@Seanasaurus7560 cool! Thanks btw
No
Bondi rescue lets me believe i live in aussie ❤
Best country in the world! 😁🇦🇺

Who loves these vids

In Chicago beaches they have canoes on the water
Under 10minutes squad

Is it me or does the guy look like Ray Barone?
Are the clubbies lifeguard trained.
They are trained to Surf Life Saving Australia standards starting as Nippers onwards.
AMAZING!!! they don't listen when the life guard says 'dangerous to swim here' yet they run for their lives when the shark siren is turned on - - SMH
Nice
H not agreeing with the physical test is weird to me.
This should be common in jobs like this.
This show is still going on?
Yes. The latest season 18 just screened. There was a hiatus during COVID-19 lockdowns.
Who left???

dear dumbutts, make these poor people's lives easier by learning how to swim in ocean conditions and LISTEN TO THE LOCALS.
Their communication always seems so ineffective. "Please be careful, please walk over to the flags." Like no, just be frank and say "ALERT: you are standing in a rip current. Come in and go to the flagged areas or you will be swept to sea."
Why she just watching on the mass rescue I hope it’s just dodgy editing. Even the music changed when it came to her.
first nga
And here's your cookie 🍪
Sorry it just looks like Nicola was doing nothing, just looking for people underwater without helping anyone else.
She said she brought 4 people in.....
that was my first impression, she didnt bring in many people but when you think about it what she did is very important, because there were so many swimmers asking for help, what if someone was going under and goes unnoticed? if someone had drown there, then we would be saying that they didnt pay enough attention wouldnt we
Happy summer to Bondi rescue 🛟 keep it up and have a safe day.
we just started winter 😉
