00:04This country has rough shores, and it takes a tough person to stand up to the elements.
00:09You have to be strong and courageous.
00:11Plus, New Zealand doesn't have many people, so every last one is precious.
00:16Today I meet a man whose job it is to save those precious lives.
00:20Dude, sorry, dude. I know you need me for this bit, but I've just sent someone out in the sea.
00:24We don't need you. This bit's just for me.
00:26Oh, dude, dude, I better go. I think he is bobbing up and down.
00:29No, go.
00:30I'm torn. I want to help you out with the film.
00:32If you need to save someone, go. This bit's just for me. I don't need you.
00:36Capture this.
00:37Yeah, wait.
00:42You should get this on camera.

00:49Awesome. Just driftwood.
00:51I thought I might have been a baby.
00:53Let's not.
01:15I'm spending the day with Terry Pohl. He's a lifeguard who enjoys saving lives and staying in shape.
01:22Is this like a reality show?
01:24No, it's more of a documentary. We're just following around ordinary New Zealanders.
01:28Ordinary?
01:29Yeah.
01:30Might be a bit out of the league. I'm not really ordinary, dude.
01:32What?
01:33Maybe go for Pete. He's more your ordinary kind of guy.
01:38You exercise a lot, I'm guessing.
01:42I'm sorry.
01:43You don't get brifling.
01:44You have to have to have to have drifling.
