A drone has caught awesome footage of swimmers being rescued after being caught in a rip tide at the Glen Beach in Cape Town.
Two men apparently got caught in a Rip Current at the Glen Beach in Cape Town. They started shouting for help, alerting everyone who could hear on the beach.
Luckily there were 3 surfers on the beach who were able to assist! Adam Zartz, Ryan Berkowitz & Christopher Verster – Cohen were on the beach and leapt into Lifesaver mode saving these two young men from drowning.
A rip tide, is one specific kind of water current which can be found near beaches with breaking waves. Rip currents can endanger inexperienced swimmers. A rip is a strong, localized, and narrow current of water which moves directly away from the shore, cutting through the lines of breaking waves like a river running out to sea; a rip current is strongest near the surface of the water
‘Cape Town Guy’ was on the beach at the time, playing with his Drone and managed to capture all the footage
“Sometimes you are in the right place at the right time and you just so happen to be flying a drone. Well today was one of those days.”
“If it wasn’t for these brave men who risked their own lives to save two strangers, who knows what the outcome would have been.”
“These are true heroes that South Africa should be proud of!”
