In case it's not clear enough, I just wanted to help the guy with his jump. I never thought it was this difficult to take someone out of the water. Never try this at home please.

Thank God you survived...
Otherwise we would have lost our favourite vlogger ....
Kudoos to your hard work ..
That was really a hard lesson to learn but good God u both were safe . Its ok to share such experiences so that it help others not to get indulge in situation like that u faced.👍
Hi bro I'm Chinna, I'm youtuber, I like your videos
same thing happened to me twenty years ago, in my case it was a classmate of mine. In panic he even blocked by eyes & nose to push himself up. I had to go down find the floor, and kick both of us up, as I had lost momentum & sense of direction with his palm covering my face.
It's nice when youtubers include all the aspects including their mistakes in a video. Very Insightful!
Concordo plenamente! Parabéns pela coragem de partilhares, Gonçalo!
One of the first wisdom words that my father told me as soon as I learnt swimming is. No matter how confident you feel about your swimming, Don't get into unknown and unfamiliar water bodies and be extremely wary of getting into water to save some one, especially when other person is a not a swimmer. Non swimmers typically panic very easily in water and in the desperation will hold on to rescuer very tightly, making it impossible for the rescuer to swim and manuver. You need to extreamly good swimmer if you intend to rescue a non-swimmer or for that matter any drowning person. I am just glad that both you learnt your lesson without any loss of life or limb.
Exactly. Indian Dads are way too similar I guess
Codetutor th-cam.com/video/zVN8ycXYNGU/w-d-xo.html
same advise by my father...although i am a good swimmer but it is always very difficult to save a drowning non- swimmer...
Yeah it's insanely difficult. It's not about swimming , one should know how to save .. I mean the techniques ..
In addition to what you said , My friend who taught me swimming also told me to get hold of the drowning persons hair and pull not getting closer to the person
What doesn’t kill you only makes you stronger....
And wiser!

Very scary! Anyways, good lesson learnt! I dived off that exact same rock btw haha
On which part of Hampi is this place ?
One of the first lessons you learn, when becoming a life guard is to never approach a person, who is in panic, upfront, because they will do what ever it takes to stay above water in panic
In Australia we learn to swim from a young age, and are taught about how a drowning person will pull you under. They have no control over their panic. Years ago we were taught to knock a person unconscious before attempting to pull them ashore!!! Now we are just taught to approach from behind, and only as a last resort. Flotation objects, even a stick, should be used first.
yeah man I am a lifeguard , we been told crazy shit as you said : knocking etc - conscious person always only with flopy, or even clothes direct body to body imposible couse they will take you down with you with panic - we been told that if this happen if they hug you let them sink down with you and than underwatter try to escape and work on it . Its crazy. Enjoy OZ hope you surf haha muh love
I had a similar incident in Rishikesh.
I thought I was dead for 5 secs, those were the longest 5 sec but somehow I survived and this video reminds me of that day.
@@gabrielasanchez2028 Yes , A big rock saved me, God bless 😇
Aur kudo maje me..
Definitely a great message here! Certainly appreciate your story and I’m sure many viewers share this sentiment. Stay safe and make smart decisions always 🙌💯
"you can't swim but you did a backflit, good idea" kkkkkkkkk
In India we call them chutiya , don't know how to swim and doing an extra front flip 😅
Lol
Hahaha बंदर क्या जाने अदरक का स्वाद
Yo boy
Atleast the drowning guy had the guts to dive into the water. As per me that's something commendable. I could never imagine myself jumping into deep waters when I didn't know how to swim.
To be honest it was Bernado's mistake, being a swimmer he could not acess the risk he was about to take. It's obvious that a drowning guy will panic and will take hold of any support he gets.
I would rather call your comment as
' Chutiyapa '.
@@saurabh7609 I can barely swim but have attempted such dives so many times. Everytime there is some random person to hold me and take me to shallow depths but luckily such things have never happened to me probably because the person who has to hold me is always experienced and knows how to do this. You are right that it was the mistake of the vlogger he shouldn't have agreed to this as he had no idea of handling it.
It's amazing how stupid non-swimmers will be when they see swimmers playing in water. People worry about what will kill them as tourists in Australia, and I tell them that their greatest danger is drowning! So many tourists from India and Asia cannot swim. They have no idea how easily they can lose their footing and/or be dragged under, even in waist-deep water.
Oh. Thanks for this, will take care of it.
Love from India 🇮🇳 bro....you r the most humble person I seen ever
the same thing happened with me, due to peer pressure my friend came into the deep side of the lake and he started drowning. now i was confident in my swimming abilities n swam immediately near him only to realize its almost impossible to save someone without prior experience the scariest part is he started pushing my head down inside the water so he could breathe. so that day we both could have died if some adult hadn't come who put my friend on his back and swam to safety.
btw love from india!
Same bro
It's basic human nature
Same incident happened with me but in swimming pool
I was there that day. I remember this. I have a video of your jump from top.
@Manish Choudhary can youshare it?
Brother please can share it
before sharing it u should ask Bernando's approval, its none of ur business to share a video like that
Date of this?
I’m gonna upload it on my TH-cam channel.
Lifesaving tip is if grabbed try to sink, the person will let go.

Didn't get it?

I have also been a swimmer for 3 years now and that feeling of 'am i going to drown ' is still by far the scariest even if it's just for 30 Seconds
Once me and couple of my friends went for a random trip to Alibaugh in Maharashtra. When we just reached one of the nearby places called Kashid, We decided to halt at Kashid beach for sometime. Suddenly a crowd gathered at the beach. When i went a little closer to have a look, There were around 6-7 dead bodies which were washed ashore. These guys were from some village, Who had jumped in the water and had apparently never seen a sea before. It was such a sad day that day. You should always respect water body, No matter what. That's what my father taught me.
Sad man.
Mostly very famous quote in india"Never Do stupidity with water, air and fire
I am raised beside of a river ..when you are going to save a non swimer always grab his or her hair & if they try to attach themself on you punch on the face ,they would be loose again now grab hair and pull out ...
Always approach from behind where they can't hold you.
same feeling bro. I would have punched that non swimmer first and pulled him out by grabbing his hair.
One lesson I learned in life is never play with fire ,water and air .
@@rachelrace3024Imagine you are top in the mountain and air is too fast and you are enjoying it and suddenly a force of air drops you down from there.
So don't play with air.

When I was 11 my brother chased me 2 km and caught me to teach swimming, he threwed me into well and I was screaming and sinking he was 2x bigger than me he jumped to help me but I was panicked so I caught his right hand and hold his waist by both of my legs 😅 ,other friends jumped with tube to save him.
I'm 19 now still I remember those funny scary moments
Thank you for sharing this story! I can imagine how difficult it must be to recall and narrate this situation! One of the new subscribers here and I wanted to say that your storytelling style is really amazing! Came across your channel by the Holi video and then saw the Varanasi one! Awesome videos.. Keep up the great work! And the Animations on After Effects look really cool! 😍
One of our friends who actually know swimming made a dive like that and when he got deeper he couldn't swim out because he was out of breath
So the moment before he passing out he saw one of my other friends leg and grabbed it and hold onto it like you described
The other guy freaked the F out because he is the cautious one who didn't dive because he knows his swimming isn't that great
After like half a minute of struggle other friends who noticed the sudden drowning and struggle managed to pulled out both of them out
When he got out he beat the c out of the diver Friend who lied there smiling that he lived to see another day
😂

Lesson. Never jump front flip when u don't know how to swim.. 😄
N above all.. never take responsibility in stupid situations.
Lol ,I didn't expect front flip
I just found your channel yesterday and I love your videos. What a crazy experience, I am glad you are healthy and still working on your channel, keep it up! 😊

exactly same thing happened to me 40 years ago when I was helping a 12 years old boy in swimming pool
that time I was only 15 years old
I know the feeling
Yeah sadly, many times people drown when trying to save others who are drowning due to a variety of reasons: the other person is struggling too hard and taking you with them, they faint and you have to swim with deadweight now which is much harder than people think, your stamina runs out, your feet gets tangled by seaweeds, etc. So please be careful. Amateurs saving people should always take a rope/stick/tied clothes with them so that others can pull them out and provide assistance incase something happens. Its good to help but better to do it carefully! Stay safe!! Live well!!
You still did a good job bro. Thank god, you got out safe❤️
Hope going back & recounting the experience has healed you of the trauma & panic associated with the whole episode ...& definitely thanks for the lesson...well taken..🙏
Such a great lesson! This situation was very unexpected and definitely there is such an important message here. Thanks for this share, undoubtedly it will save many lives!
You did a great job my friend, you saved someone's life like an angel. This should be the proud moment of your life not the scariest one.
My dad told me this :
If you try to save a drowning person, you will drown too
You had to deal with it...
Because you were capable of getting over it. 💙
I can't imagine what you felt underwater, situations like this make us more aware about the value of our life ... A message that is present in every second of your videos, thank you for showing that
"learn from your mistakes" that was my favourite quote.
It's a very difficult situation..!
Hope you are good..!
Love from South India..🐾❤️
When you can’t swim you think that any swimmer could magically save you. I know because I thought the same when I couldn’t swim 😂
You are strong, responsible and trustworthy because you did not give up on that guy and that tells me a lot about who you are
Dude how come you know swimming for 12 years and accepted to help a stranger !!!! 😥 . How many stories are there of people who strangle others in order to breathe for themselves. The hampi gods were with you that day it seems . Don't be so generous to help everyone in india bro. You'll get into trouble 😅😅 Be safe if you come to India next time 🙌
Your storytelling is awesome. I couldn't emphasis more on how good your video is(again). Other then that, I want that shirt, it's catchy.
1:15 i just realized that the paper texture is just a same image flipped to make a effect, love it😍
Your Jaisalmer Rajasthan really amazed me... I just visited on my last vlog... you can see some of your known locations dude... visit India again... CHeers !!!
Thank you for saving the boy. Thank you.
This is EXACTLY what happened to me.. when i tried to save my friend.. we both survived but that was one hell of a moment!
I never knew the risk of saving a drowning person until reading these comments. I almost drowned a long time ago and this lady saved me. I remember feeling someone grab my hands and calm me down. After that, I was so scared I couldn't move my legs to put them down after reaching shallow water. I mean to be fair I was like 7, a third of her size, so I didn't really pose as much of a threat.
My nightmare is going into water. Just tried once to learn swimming in a well being my uncle side to me scared so much that never tried again.
Wow your storytelling skills are amazing! I felt nervous throughout the video...
I had also made the same mistake.
I didn't know how to swim, but on my friends call
I jumped from the height of 8-10 meters.
They (6-7) were ready in the water, to save me.
When i jumped i directly went to bottom 15 feet down. And then water automatically pushed me up. And there my one friend grabs me.
And i noticed there, all were searching for me into waters, fearing that, i have drowned
Great to also feature the other side of our travel experiences. For sure it is not always good times and epic moments. Great job brother.
Whoa! Lesson learned thanks for the knowledge.
You are my favourite vlog 😄
my whole family watch your vlog😄
love from India
The trick to saving a drowning person is to wait for the moment till he/she gets tired and completely exhausted so that he can't grip you tightly since he is in a complete panic state.
*We need more like this in the lockdown*
*Please* 🙏🙏🙏
this is the scariest thing i can ever imagine, unfortunately i lost 2 of my friends.
I have to say that the PTSD from a near-death experience in the water is overwhelming. When I was urged to try to walk through a running torrent of water only 10 or 12 feet across but 5 feet deep, by my boyfriend at that time, AT NIGHT, with a helmet with a light, huge boulders sticking out above the water to inevitably knock me unconscious, and my being carried down almost like a leaf, if he hadn't been strong enough to plant his feet and like throw me across, it would have been my life, not his. We made it, but I remember that all the PTSD from all the other events in my life rendered me unable to speak for a long while the rest of the night as we were at a party with others who had no idea what we went through. Even if you can swim, the water in Nature is very clear and unrelenting, Praise all the gods the other people saw what was going on and helped!! But I get it, and I love the water, but I'm so careful now. Jaya Ganesha you were with others!!!
If you ever encounter someone in the water needing help, ALWAYS approach them from behind. Glad you made it out safe. Love your vids man.
Damn, I'm glad you're okay. This is unfortunately a common occurrence. People who are drowning go into survival mode and will oftentimes tragically drown the very people who are trying to save them. I think life guards are taught to approach drowning people from behind for this very reason, and if they still somehow latch onto you, swimming downwards will usually make them let go. If they still don't let go or if you're unable to do that for some reason, use any force necessary to stun them for long enough to get away.
Hey dude, your videos are truly amazing that show a whole different aspect of India that is really different from things shown by western mainstream media........
I would really love it if you visit Mysore (which is pretty near to Hampi) sometime in the future and make a vlog about it. The palace over there is AMAZING!!! And the place is pretty clean....
PS: I'm Indian.... live in Bangalore
Similar incident happened to me in a swimming pool when I was learning how to swim
But I was the one who drowned
Hampi is close to my house. I have been there twice. Its a beautiful place and river tungabadhra makes it more serene and peaceful. I too had a near death experience while learning swimming. But i never regretted it. Death is gonna happen one way or the other. But living scared is more regretful than death due to adventure.
Just the tag of iit madras in your earliest youtube video made you famous in India.This is how much we crave and care about this prestigious institutions.
Pretty sure that most of the audience is indian.
I liked his video coz of the simplicity and innocence it portrayed not coz it was tagged IIT Madras. P.S. just sharing. P.P.S. sure, IITs are great.🤷
Love from INDIA🇮🇳❤️🙏👏😊👍
Love you from India
You did right .
Salute to you 👍
Yea i can imagine that situation , Saving other person finally turns into saving ourselves ,in emergency situation ,i have also experienced once , anyways waiting for your videos bro ,i also missed your cinematography and thanx for uploading this video
Sanapur lake--> hampi -->hospet -->karnataka-->INDIA 😀😀

nice place i was doing the same front flips years back over there

I was almost drown once in a river. A man jumped in to rescue me and I remember as I was struggling to breathe and panicked at the same time, I kept pushing this man down. I didn’t do it on purpose but that was what my body did trying to grasp everything to survive. I realized in those moment I could end up killing this man, in that split second of struggle I asked God to help me, I heard a voice telling me to calm down and let this man go. I felt peace and let him go, as I kept struggling in the water and in panicked, I couldn’t see this man anymore but next I felt a hand grab my waist up from under and I realized it is this man. He let me wear out my energy a little and then came from under or the back (I don’t remember but a position he will not be pressed by me) to rescue me and he swam on his back while carrying me to the side. It seems like eternity but it is actually only for few seconds.
Tips for a person drowning, call to Jesus for help and if you have a rescuer, try to be calm and let the rescuer grab you from under/back)
Tips for a person trying to rescue a drowning person; position is key because a person drowning fighting for life and panic are going to keep pushing you down so make sure you come from the back or below and lift the person up and swim or else you will end up die too.
Thanks for sharing.
It's always good to remind that when we're having fun we forget some security rules.
I had a similar experience when i was 13. I told a friend of mine to climb my back and thought i could swim him ashore. I obviously couldn’t swim with him on back and we started drowning. He strangled me in panic and climbed on my shoulders to be able to breathe. I gave up trying to free myself of him and had a extra body vision of myself with my friend on my shoulders. Then i lost that vision and I started walking under the water on the river bed until i made it across with my friend on the shoulders.
You are a beautiful human being. Thank you.
I have a friend who is a professional lifeguard at a beach. He told me he once had to knock out a guy who was panicking so bad that he made it impossible for him to keep both of their heads over the surface of the water.
Sharing your valuable experience to all is very humble and a great lesson not to be foolish in such situations. My appreciation to you.🙏
You're right bro, I had same experience and that time it is very stupid because I was at the age of 17, we did it in a well and nobody there to help us.
Only one thing I did is-i used a rope to climb up on my previous driving otherwise we both almost lost in it.
It's been more than 11 years but I still see the visuals from my mind.. It's very hard to forget about it.
And it's more painful if we loose one the life..
In our village old people always said that never dive when someone is drowning.... Rather throw a rope or stick......
ouch this is some crazy situation man... glad all came out well.
In our area 2month before my friend relative died because he tried to save a non swimmer... He having two child age 34... He is a good swimmer due to sudden rise in water current he drown and taken away by water force and smashed in rock... The body found 12km away from the incidents... But other guy catched tree root very tightly and got saved...
Great lesson for everyone. Never promise something we cannot control. Thanks
Thank god both of you got rescued. Tunga Bhadra is one of the dangerous and fast flowing river of the state.
Can you come back to India? Sikkim and Ladakh has your name on it. Your editing and quality will make those places, already beautiful, beyond wonders. Please consider coming next year.
i learnt how to swim when i was still like 5 so it's been pretty long now..
few years later at one day when me and my cousins were swimming, my little cousin hasn't been too good at swimming
i remember at the pool, when we swam together, but the panic just gets inside her and she starts forgetting the movement of how to swim and she grabbed me, pulled me, and pushed me inside the water just so that she could get her head above the surface and breathe
i was really flustered because i wasn't ready, i hadn't even take a breath before she just tries to save herself, i was still young and i could already think to myself "i think i'm gonna die if she didn't stop doing it soon"
it feels so long but i managed to get my face up the surface and breathe again, it was a relieve, but now i understand her, she was a kid at that time and i should have known the risk to go swim with her.
A lesson learned, its because the person who can't swim was holding onto you preventing you from swimming. So provide instructions prior to jumping. The person jumping was probably clinging on for dear life w/o knowing the whole situation.
It remembered my scariest memory too.. When I was learning how to swim, some of the elders in the pool asked me to swim from one end to another, that they told me they would help if I was stuck in the middle. And fortunately I wasn't able to make it to the end and those guys didn't showed up that they actually afraid if they would be drowned too. And some other guy jumped into the pool and helped me to get out!! But in this meantime of 2 to 3 mins I thought its the end, I memorized my parents and that's it.
Indeed you are very true, we should never ever try to take things for granted in other words per se.
@@gabrielasanchez2028 Firstly a huge thanks for respecting my life and yes you were right, that they may have learnt their lesson. If I were in their place, I hope I would've not said in the first place to do such a dare to anyone. And if I said so, then I would've tried saving him/ her and end up just like Bernardo Bacalhau or even worse.. I just don't want to imagine that 😅

Yr a Lovely Honest souL , loved yr hampi vlog!! I Adore indiA
God is so merciful to you. Always pray and be careful...
I will share this, because it is so important. I took lifesaving, and if someone is acting like that, it is better to get away from them, or they will drown you, in your case you could not. We also grabbed people by the hair and pulled them that way, it does not hurt actually, but leaves you room to get away if you need to. Hugs!
You Are Definitely very mature in owning up to the mistake ... but you owned it and have taught us here a very valuable lesson... never take responsibility for someone else's life so easily with out thinking about it first.
I admire your Spirit for exploring and joining in and intermingling with local people... Love you Spirit and Videos.
Your video quality is very good
Love You Bro From India 💓💓💓🙏🙏
I just Love your videos !!
Big Fan !
Something like that happend with me too. Unfortunately it was a friend of mine on a boat during a storm. I grabbed my life jacket and put it on him if we drowned. Suddenly the waves are bigger and longer than out mini boat. Almost drowing and he grabbed my shoulder with a croc grip. (i felt that) I punched him by gathering all the energy i had but still he grabbed my arm. It waa difficult to get out of that boat while drowning with someone a life jacket on. Luckily we survived. Rescu came.
I had the similar experience in Kaveri river at Muttatti. But the person drowning was not a stranger but my brother. Those few secs were horrible.
We kannadigas love u subscibed brother try kodagu, gokarna once one of beautiful landcapes in karnataka
When we were little, we used to go to our village for summer vacations, there we had a big pond where people used to bath, so, one day while playing in the pond, uncles from my village taught me how to swim, I was like 6 years old then, I was so happy when I was able to swim, then at one place which I thought was shallow I decided to stop, but it was actually deep and in panic, I was trying to fight the water that was rushing in and making me drown, I was saved by my elder sister but after that I haven't swam properly. It would be nice to learn swimming once more but times have kind of changed and we don't get the chance to go their much either.
Yes.. I am also survived that moment.. we go for them to help in that situation but they only know to drown along with them..
Yes hampi is near here in south India its a best place to for trips and adventure
Thank god you are ok...god bless you ♥️♥️♥️🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
@ that's so brave of you to come out with this video and lessons for others. 👍🏼👍🏼

Love your smooth speech and how you narrates the story
"I didn't know it was so difficult to save someone..." That shocked me!!!!
