JETSKI RIDER PULLS OFF SEA RESCUE AFTER SPOTTING STRANDED KID
WITH VID
By Tom Sell
This video captures a tense sea rescue after a young boy was seen struggling beside an overturned jet ski in rough waves.
Douglas Strong from Queensland, Australia, spotted the youngster and quickly rushed to help.
During the dramatic encounter he manages to help the lad calm down and get back on his jet ski.
He uploaded the video online where it quickly went viral with viewers commenting on his quick reactions and helpful tone.
Douglas said: “I was riding my jet ski home when I found a kid on an upside-down jetski battling the waves.
“I stopped to help and coached him through how to flip it back whilst making sure he stayed calm.
“He was getting tired but got it on the third or fourth go.
“Any longer and I would have had to figure out a way to jump ship and flip it back for him without losing mine to the waves.”
ENDS.
