@@charityrocks He was probably visiting with a group that had originally planned to go to Cronulla, but changed their minds at the last minute. And he just never got the memo.
Those poor deaf girls must have been so scared but they were both so brave Also the grandmother must have been terrified . Jethro did a brilliant job on this rescue.
My oldest daughter is deaf, she is afraid to swim, in part due to the risk of not hearing warnings nor hearing people call out to help you. She loves the coast and rivers but she won't swim.
It was bizarrely irresponsible to even be there. It wouldn't be good even if their guardian was a hearing person. But their grandmother, completely unable to explain anything to the lifeguards. Yeah, that's not okay. Be the adult. There's other ways to have fun.
@@Maialeenno it was irresponsible to not be aware of how far they were going out but to say it’s irresponsible for them to even be there is crazy. They can still swim and do everything a hearing person can they just have to be more cautious
The patience the lifeguards have is unbelievable. It must be SO frustrating dealing with people who you’re warning over and over again, who are ignoring your signs, who you then have to go and save after all that 🙄 massive props to them. I’d be saying a lot worse than “Wipe that smile off your face…”
@@synnakae04 It's not even natural selection, only really experienced swimmers can ever accurately gauge when a situation is too much for them. Less experienced swimmers almost always overestimate themselves due to lack of experience dealing with these situations. You must lay off your ego and understand there's always a situation where you could be in danger, no matter how good of a swimmer you are. That's the first step in becoming a truly experienced swimmer.
I always find it so infuriating when a crowd of nosy people stand around an injured person, holding out their cameras to film the event or just staring intently at the injury. Everyone should just continue walking and let the person have privacy. They’re obviously already very shaken from their injury, and I bet the last thing they want is a crowd of people hovering around them and looking at their injuries.
honestly, and if people get too close it can start to affect the support people are getting from the lack of space, people really need to show some respect in those sorts of situations
This Happened to me, I broke my Arm and alot of Ppl started to Tlk to each other and Was paying soo Much Attention to my arm, I started to Panick even more and told them to Stop looking but they didnt Listen i was soo Mad and just started to cry. If you see a Person thats Injured please just Ignore it if someone is already helping them, and Not sorround the Person cuz that will make them feel A sense of being Humiliated or feeling Embarrassed about what happend to them..
I don't believe anything would interfere with critical medical intervention, and, we have to remember, this is well documented tv programme loved by many around the world, the team involved in critical medical care would not let anyone directly interfere, its normal for people to be curious about what's happening in front of them, I'm a nurse and dealt with many critical medical moments and people on the wards watch us, you will notice its the critical medical care they are watching and to me its not about being on film either way, if it was some, might do a bit of pushing and shuffing to get to the front and I have to admit, I've never seen anyone indicating 59wa4ds the camera's, it just the critical medical care they are interested. That's my observation and there isn't that many I haven't seen. England 🥰
While doing research on drowning prevention for a uni assignment, I jokingly said to my group mates "does binge watching bondi rescue count as research?" then while doing my actual research I cam across a peer reviewed journal article about how watching bondi rescue prevents drownings. I think it should be a requirement for everyone arriving in Australia to watch at least one episode of bondi rescue to see what the flags mean, what the currents are like and how not to drown.
Forget watching tv. Add swimming to primary school curriculum same as in the Netherlands. No fools who can't swim, 90% of drownings don't happen. Like 99% of people who drown here are immigrants who refuse swimming lessons due to conservatism or being too miserly, the remainder have been knocked unconcious or have bad injuries. I've been doing maritime rescue a couple years now and we never meet anyone drowning. Everybody can swim.
YESSS, I don't swim in waters, and this is EXACTLY why. It's just so unpredicatable. And yes, I actually never knew what the flags at beaches meant. It makes sense now. I actually learnt a lot about water safety through binging bondi rescue.
The Caveat to this is how people react when faced with drowning. That's the "wild card". People react differently to life threatening experiences and until it happens there is no way to know how fear and adrenalin will effect a persons reasoning.
Can we take a moment to appreciate the civilians who see someone else in trouble and they step in. Risking their own lives to go out and save the person while waiting for lifeguards to show up.
I got caught in a bit of a rip current once like 6-8 years ago when I was a preteen and I began to get exhausted, but against what I knew at the time I swam directly against the rip. I swam hard for what felt like 5 minutes, getting nowhere. Eventually, a lifeguard came out and rescued me. Being the angsty, hormonal kid with a fragile ego, I think I was so embarrassed to have to get rescued that I never ended up thanking him; in the 0.00000001% chance you are reading this and think I’m talking about you, THANK YOU 😭 and thanks to all lifeguards out there, the ocean can be horrifying despite its beauty
i started watching this show when i was ten (16 now) and every time ive ever gone to a beach, ive warned EVERYONE around me about rips and what to do about them, mostly bc most floridian beaches we go to have no lifeguards
have you tried going back to that same beach? it must have been terrifying though I would also try and remember that date since it would have been my 2nd chance at life
I've only been to the Ocean once, but I've been in a lot of Wave Pools and I almost drowned in a wave-tech pool. I won't allow my kids in one unless they have floaties on or a inner tube, they are too dangerous!
I love seeing how the junior rookie lifegaurds have matured into confident proffesional lifegaurds,love Beardy,he has a great attitude.Lets not forget the courage of the yellow voluntary lifegaurds too.
This show always reminds me of my swim teachers as a child and how some of the first things we went over in every class was how to remain calm and in control of ourselves during scary situations.
@@LizaFergison depending how you are taught to float wether it is with your arms and legs tucked in a ball or spread out will determine wether you will get cold, you are leaving open all your important glands open to the cold, you will get cold too quick.

When I first clicked on this video I thought there’s no way an hour of beach rescue would be entertaining. Well, here I am 50 minutes later, still watching. 😂
When I was 8 or 9 I was on holiday visiting a Sydney beach playing in the shore break. I remember jumping over a wave and clearing it completely, but when I went to touch the ground the water underneath my feet was violently turbulent. Having no footing I was quickly swept backward and pulled by my heavy long ponytail. I ended up back flipping and getting my face dragged against the shore, scorpion style. Having grown up 3 miles from the ocean, I was shook up by how quickly I lost control, and how badly I was just dumped. I returned to the sand defeated and freshly exfoliated. Looking back I’m seriously grateful I have no long term issues from that incident! Considering how many people do not get to walk away so easily. Big thanks to all those who dedicate their time to helping others!
22:05 I LOVE THAT. The moment he heard unconscious his smile dropped and he started spinning the wheel. Immediately aware he needs to assist them for the worse case
The ocean is really beautiful. I've never been there so I don't actually know how brutal the waves are, but I can see how it is so enticing to people. Especially if it's your first time being there.
I watch these lifeguard shows because it Restores my sense of hope for good people . These are good people and I hope good men! Thank you for giving your life to this work!
My god ive been following/supporting these mens journey for years but it doesnt matter how many times ive seen them be genuine heroes itll always amaze me how you can actually see that it gives them a rush and makes them truly feel so good inside to go on their mission to rescue someone. I love these guys, i wish more people knew how vital lifeguards are ❤
I relate so hard to the guy that thought he was at a different beach. I have the sense of direction of a carrot and the geography skills of a banana. I'm almost 30, have lived in Australia my entire life and only just realised that Victoria is a state, and that South Australia is on the south coast, not the east coast. Yes. I thought a state named South Australia was on the East coast. I have been to South Australia and Victoria several times without realising.
WOW, just wow. What else can you say if you're directional and geographical skills are that bad you should NEVER be without a GPS EVER. I used to be like that but then one day I decided to go for a drive and got lost on purpose, this was before cell phones and GPS. I just kept driving until I thought I was lost enough. I came to a little town and stopped and ate then asked the waitress which way to Columbus(OH). She pointed me in the right direction and I got home about an hour later. I just followed the signs that were telling me where to go. I would do this every weekend in a different part of Columbus and eventually I learned where I was no matter which side of town I was in. You just have to keep taking different turns and straight aways until you find a sign pointing you in the right direction. If you don't know where you started from like roads or landmarks you're truly in trouble and shouldn't be driving at all.
I’m just mind blown at how he can go that speed on a jet ski and not take anyone out on the way sheesh talent!! These lifeguards r Amazing in all aspects. Idk how ppl get rescued and end up right bk out in the deep rips
As a teen 13yrs. I rescued my mate from drowning. She couldn't swim and she got caught in a rip and pulled out. I went after her. Held her up but she was panicking so badly she was pushing me under. We wer by the pier legs. I've never being so thankful for my feet to hit ground for a split second and my head went above water and I threw her at the pier legs and shouted hold onto that. I was so tired but still managed to swim to shore...I hit the deck. while she clung to the pier a rescue boat managed to get her. Oh and 2 guys and 2 lifeguards swimming tried to help but couldn't reach us. All this... while my other mate is having a panic attack on the shore trying to tell lifeguards we was in danger lol. Manic 5 mins of my life... x
Through watching this, I can't help but think of a late, great WWE performer named Shad Gaspard. He and his son were swimming off the coast of Venice Beach, California (I believe) with a group of people in June of 2020. Each member of the group, including Shad and his son, were all swept away by a powerful rip wave. Shad told rescuers to save his son before they rescued Shad himself. But by the time they came back for Shad, he was nowhere to be found. A few days afterwards, his deceased, lifeless body swept up on another portion of the Venice Beach shore. May Shad rest in peace. 😢😪😓🙏
Guys we need to thank these guys because they have help a lot of people who needed help even during dangerous times. And also they have put their life on the lines and it is incredible that they decided to take a risk just to help us. Thank you Bondi life guards! For all the work, all the emergencies you have taken and the people you have helped ❤
Paramedic 23 years. Y’all are to be commended for the dedication to life and your skills before EMS arrives. I’d be honored to work with your entire team. Well done.
its amazing what these lifeguards go through to protect the public from drowning, mother sea clearly shows no mercy in claiming innocent lives.. be thankful
Great work and appreciation goes to Bondi and all lifeguards. Big thanks to all those local surfers that help aswell. Their contribution is duely noted.
@@joey4946, same! My daughter is deaf. She loves the ocean, loves rivers and lakes but will not swim in them. She is an adult but doesn't even feel safe to swim in a pool, unless I am there, because I can communicate with her and people that can hear.
Sometimes, knowing when to "chicken out" on a swim in such dangerous waters is the best skill for a beachgoer to have. Great respect to you guys for risking yourselves to save others sometimes. It must be very frustrating too to rescued people you already warned about the waters.
The clips of the two younger girls, the ones that are deaf, always make me cry. I just can’t imagine the fear and not knowing if someone is coming to help. 44:37
Absolutely fascinating job❤ the physical and mental abilities of lifeguards is crazy. I actually got full of tears being overwhelmed by people being rescued and the happy outcomes.
I remember playing as a young teen with my siblings on the North Sea. We built a huge sandcastle and when the tides changed we decided to try and defend it from the waves by continually refortifying it. We had a blast. The thing is the North Sea has MASSIVE tide changes. So what is safe in low tide is very dangerous in high tide... Our dad grew concerned and ordered us multiple times to come to shore. Eventually we listened. The way back was hard. Way harder than anticipated. On shore we got a scolding from our Dad, because 5 minutes later and the lifeguards would have had to rescue us... We hadn't noticed how far away safety was. Good 100 to 200 meters. The following castles were left to fend for themselves.
Thanks for doing these video's. I grew up in San Diego and I was at the beaches all summer long and played volleyball on the beach 2 nights a week. It was a great life living there. Lifeguards are so important to the safety for those in the water.
You know watching this kinda makes me a grateful that the team are so willing to help. I know this isn't at all similar to these situations, but when I was reallyy oung, I was in swimming lessons with my primary. I was pretty much drowning, I just graduated the shallow end and went over to the deep end to do my lap. It was the first time without floaties too. I was exhausted, and my lungs aren't good (asthma). I began to do under. Water was going in my mouth, my ears, my nose, everywhere, and my legs were giving up. I tried to use my hands but I was tired. And i stared at the instructor, she was following along as I was swimming, and had a stick. She just stared at me from the distance. And I began to panic and focus on breathing. Still no action, she just stared and then walked so slowly towards me when I put my hand up to try to signal or tried to grab onto her stick, which she hadn't even stuck out. She just stood there infront of me, and I felt so let down. I was literally struggling and she was there looking at me. I ended up making my way to the edge and clinged on. And then i managed to get out. I was exhausted, and I had to stay there getting my breath back. And she just looked at me the whole time, not helping or asking if I was okay. It basically traumatised me from swimming. Now I haven't swam since those lessons. This was in year 4. Forgot how to swim, and lost the ability. Now gotta learn over, but still traumatised. My point is that there are some people out there who aren't as passionate as the bondi team. And it's amazing how they do their job!
Are we ignoring the fact that the first woman was Draggged rather than Dragged XD. On a positive note though, absolutely love Bondi Rescue. Love from the UK 🇬🇧 ❤️
Real life heros...People cant understand the amount of pressure these guys have to go through so you can get back home safely. Hats off. This show always reminds me of my swim teachers as a child and how some of the first things we went over in every class was how to remain calm and in control of ourselves during scary situations.
I know it's a serious situation, im not at all disregarding that, but I also can't help but giggle a bit when Jethro goes, "oh, that woman is SO drowning😦"
Most rip current are 15 to 20 feet in width. If you are ever caught in one, swim in the opposite direction that the current is going (right or left) and you will be out of it in no time. Never try and swim directly into it towards the shore.
I’ve been in water below my waist and the next moment being dragged away. The feeling of helplessness is extraordinary and frightening. It does happen in a flash. I was taught don’t fight it, go with it until you can swim back with the current. I fully understand people that panic. They’re only ten meters from the beach yet helpless. Lifeguards are saviours of the seas
I’ve just recently got hooked on BR and my overwhelming feeling is of the stupidity and ignorance of some of the beach dwellers. You have to admire the patience and professionalism of the lifeguards.
All this time of watching Bondi Beach rescues, and I just came up with a great idea. I think placing some strategically placed floatation devices that are anchored to the ocean floor would help a lot!
I'm so glad y'all said something about people smiling when getting saved! They flat out don't understand. And when I see ppl coming out of the sea lifeless then ppl getting saved and laughing it's annoying.
May be nervous laughter. I once thought I was about to be eaten by a bear and I burst into laughter and was just hysterically belly laughing even though I knew I was about to die. Luckily it did not eat me but I always wondered why I reacted like that. Then I realized alot of people begin to laugh or smile as an adrenaline fueled pure terror response.
Just WOW, these guys really working so incredible hard, just impressive. Saving so many people 🙌 really awesome ❤ I believe it's one of the most difficult job's in existence, so intense, emotional and exhausting. They never giving up and just keep on going. I'm very impressed.
This is the second show of theirs I have watched and Beardy and the long haired skinny kid are the ones that actually seem to care, the girl too but she wasn't really in this and I think she only works in the tower. The rest need to understand that not everyone fits nicely into a puzzle THEY create! What their reality is doesn't make it the truth.
I live in Michigan and we don't get waves like this but the undertow is terrible at times. You hear stories that are just upsetting like the dad who ripped his two girls out of the undertow but was dragged down himself only to be found floating miles away off shore days later. It's terrible. Most beaches in Michigan don't have lifeguards. You all do a great job. I commend you for your work.
Good thing they look over the beach so well. Love that not only the volunteres are there but also the public when need is be and they're near till the guys are there. Gotta love people that help.
If someone has just swam you close into shore……surely it’s common sense when he points to shore that you walk that way and not back out where you nearly drowned?
Love all your Bondi Beach videos :D It just doesn't get into my head how you'd decide to go swim in the open ocean when you actually can't swim good enough or even at all! Crazy these people. Love the rescues! You have a handful of work there! Would love to visit Bondi Beach one day! :D Cheers mates!
Those people are often helpful though. I have spent 25 years in the medical field and in training, you want people there. People to be your eyes and ears and to be a go-for or even to take over if you are exhausted. It's hard to hear over people laughing and water, so those people near are helpful. Most are concerned. If they aren't getting in the way of the way of the rescue, it's all good. Depending on the circumstances that crowd is also helpful to show emergency crews where to go. Not every emergency has someone in a watch tower guiding paramedics. So an ambulance crew looks for that crowd.
@@amandastakeonit7402 i completely agree with your statement, and im glad someone else finally said it and explained it in a way that can easily be understood, thank you!!

Except when they can't swim and cause more work for the lifeguards.

My god ive been following/supporting these mens journey for years but it doesnt matter how many times ive seen them be genuine heroes itll always amaze me how you can actually see that it gives them a rush and makes them truly feel so good inside to go on their mission to rescue someone. I love these guys, i wish more people knew how vital lifeguards are ❤

“Hey mate, how’s it goin?”
“Oh ya know, not too bad, just drownin” 😅😅
The last guy cracked me up, he was so confused to find out he was actually in Bondi 😂😂
If Sam called me “good girl” I would faint 😭🤚🏽

Oh yess, me too xD

I relate so hard to the guy that thought he was at a different beach. I have the sense of direction of a carrot and the geography skills of a banana. I'm almost 30, have lived in Australia my entire life and only just realised that Victoria is a state, and that South Australia is on the south coast, not the east coast. Yes. I thought a state named South Australia was on the East coast. I have been to South Australia and Victoria several times without realising.
the sense of direction of a carrot and the geography skills of a banana oh my gods but same
WOW, just wow. What else can you say if you're directional and geographical skills are that bad you should NEVER be without a GPS EVER.
I used to be like that but then one day I decided to go for a drive and got lost on purpose, this was before cell phones and GPS. I just kept driving until I thought I was lost enough. I came to a little town and stopped and ate then asked the waitress which way to Columbus(OH). She pointed me in the right direction and I got home about an hour later. I just followed the signs that were telling me where to go. I would do this every weekend in a different part of Columbus and eventually I learned where I was no matter which side of town I was in. You just have to keep taking different turns and straight aways until you find a sign pointing you in the right direction. If you don't know where you started from like roads or landmarks you're truly in trouble and shouldn't be driving at all.
...so inconclusion, would you classify yourself more a fruit or veg?
@@brandozcatz9659 I'm more of a cursed fruit and veg salad.
Soooo which state do you live in? How did you accidently cross state lines?
The shock on the last guy when he is told he IS on Bondi.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The entire staff on Bondi beach are all true hero’s! You are all walking earth angels. Bravo!
P.S. I love you all.
Sending love and light❤❤❤
I’m just mind blown at how he can go that speed on a jet ski and not take anyone out on the way sheesh talent!! These lifeguards r Amazing in all aspects. Idk how ppl get rescued and end up right bk out in the deep rips
Thank god we have these amazing lifeguards on the beach. 🙏
it better than having them in the desert for sure
@@MultiChrisjb - 😂
I would like the volunteer life savers to be given some or any recognition. They do a great job. Just like you. Unsung heroes need to be recognised. ❤
As a teen 13yrs. I rescued my mate from drowning. She couldn't swim and she got caught in a rip and pulled out. I went after her. Held her up but she was panicking so badly she was pushing me under. We wer by the pier legs. I've never being so thankful for my feet to hit ground for a split second and my head went above water and I threw her at the pier legs and shouted hold onto that. I was so tired but still managed to swim to shore...I hit the deck. while she clung to the pier a rescue boat managed to get her. Oh and 2 guys and 2 lifeguards swimming tried to help but couldn't reach us. All this... while my other mate is having a panic attack on the shore trying to tell lifeguards we was in danger lol. Manic 5 mins of my life... x
why do people ignore the lifeguards. where are parents of young kids. watching these men rescue someone 4 times is a bit much. God bless and keep safe
Through watching this, I can't help but think of a late, great WWE performer named Shad Gaspard. He and his son were swimming off the coast of Venice Beach, California (I believe) with a group of people in June of 2020. Each member of the group, including Shad and his son, were all swept away by a powerful rip wave. Shad told rescuers to save his son before they rescued Shad himself. But by the time they came back for Shad, he was nowhere to be found. A few days afterwards, his deceased, lifeless body swept up on another portion of the Venice Beach shore. May Shad rest in peace. 😢😪😓🙏
Guys we need to thank these guys because they have help a lot of people who needed help even during dangerous times. And also they have put their life on the lines and it is incredible that they decided to take a risk just to help us. Thank you Bondi life guards! For all the work, all the emergencies you have taken and the people you have helped ❤
It's so fun to see the seasoned rescuers that were once the beginners.
Not jack going " BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP" bc the horn broke😂
Here I thought I was the only one giggling hysterically at that
This should be required viewing for overseas tourists visiting Australia.
I love how they kick their feet like they're swimming while on the surfboards 😂
The more I watch this series I am blown away over the fact they don’t have enough equipment!
Paramedic 23 years. Y’all are to be commended for the dedication to life and your skills before EMS arrives. I’d be honored to work with your entire team. Well done.
holy the way Harrisons face dropped when he heard the word unconscious god what a good man
Harrison has a wide-eyed, childlike innocence, backed up with a heart of gold and nerves of steel and eagle-eyed vision.
I want to be an EMT or lifeguard!! There's something about saving a life that truly humbles you. Good job, boys!!
its amazing what these lifeguards go through to protect the public from drowning, mother sea clearly shows no mercy in claiming innocent lives.. be thankful
Great work and appreciation goes to Bondi and all lifeguards.
Big thanks to all those local surfers that help aswell. Their contribution is duely noted.
How adorable!!!. Hey bud. You rescued someone disregard what tool you use but I did the job. Bravo.!!!. In my eye, you are the hero.
My heart truly broke when the grandma couldn’t do anything to help her grandkids 💔
I have a daughter who is deaf and she's petrified of swimming 🏊 in the ocean. I agree, it's not worth it.
@@joey4946, same! My daughter is deaf. She loves the ocean, loves rivers and lakes but will not swim in them. She is an adult but doesn't even feel safe to swim in a pool, unless I am there, because I can communicate with her and people that can hear.
thats what you love to see 55 min of my favorite people helping others
Sometimes, knowing when to "chicken out" on a swim in such dangerous waters is the best skill for a beachgoer to have. Great respect to you guys for risking yourselves to save others sometimes. It must be very frustrating too to rescued people you already warned about the waters.
It's unbelievable that all of these people watched all of the desperate rescues, yet continue to head into the rip tides. Common sense?
USA here! You lifeguards are amazing. So much appreciation for you all!
The clips of the two younger girls, the ones that are deaf, always make me cry. I just can’t imagine the fear and not knowing if someone is coming to help. 44:37
And Jethro didn't care if he was just getting back from injury. He was giving it 200% to save them.
I dont like to see people not give out 10s because they dont like to. That kid is young and in his first year doing that deserved a 10.
Absolutely fascinating job❤ the physical and mental abilities of lifeguards is crazy. I actually got full of tears being overwhelmed by people being rescued and the happy outcomes.
I remember playing as a young teen with my siblings on the North Sea. We built a huge sandcastle and when the tides changed we decided to try and defend it from the waves by continually refortifying it. We had a blast.
The thing is the North Sea has MASSIVE tide changes. So what is safe in low tide is very dangerous in high tide...
Our dad grew concerned and ordered us multiple times to come to shore. Eventually we listened. The way back was hard. Way harder than anticipated.
On shore we got a scolding from our Dad, because 5 minutes later and the lifeguards would have had to rescue us... We hadn't noticed how far away safety was. Good 100 to 200 meters.
The following castles were left to fend for themselves.
Thanks for doing these video's. I grew up in San Diego and I was at the beaches all summer long and played volleyball on the beach 2 nights a week. It was a great life living there. Lifeguards are so important to the safety for those in the water.
I don’t understand how people can be so irresponsible and make bad decisions if they can’t swim well
You know watching this kinda makes me a grateful that the team are so willing to help. I know this isn't at all similar to these situations, but when I was reallyy oung, I was in swimming lessons with my primary. I was pretty much drowning, I just graduated the shallow end and went over to the deep end to do my lap. It was the first time without floaties too. I was exhausted, and my lungs aren't good (asthma). I began to do under. Water was going in my mouth, my ears, my nose, everywhere, and my legs were giving up. I tried to use my hands but I was tired. And i stared at the instructor, she was following along as I was swimming, and had a stick. She just stared at me from the distance. And I began to panic and focus on breathing. Still no action, she just stared and then walked so slowly towards me when I put my hand up to try to signal or tried to grab onto her stick, which she hadn't even stuck out. She just stood there infront of me, and I felt so let down. I was literally struggling and she was there looking at me. I ended up making my way to the edge and clinged on. And then i managed to get out. I was exhausted, and I had to stay there getting my breath back. And she just looked at me the whole time, not helping or asking if I was okay. It basically traumatised me from swimming. Now I haven't swam since those lessons. This was in year 4. Forgot how to swim, and lost the ability. Now gotta learn over, but still traumatised. My point is that there are some people out there who aren't as passionate as the bondi team. And it's amazing how they do their job!
The look on the guy's face when he realised he was at Bondi was priceless. 😂I wouldn't want to go anywhere with him,no sense of direction.
My God....What an absolutly fantastic job all of you are doing! ❤ *RESPECT*
Are we ignoring the fact that the first woman was Draggged rather than Dragged XD. On a positive note though, absolutely love Bondi Rescue. Love from the UK 🇬🇧 ❤️
The surfers really are the secondary response team. I admire everyone’s bravery. Thank you
Real life heros...People cant understand the amount of pressure these guys have to go through so you can get back home safely. Hats off.
This show always reminds me of my swim teachers as a child and how some of the first things we went over in every class was how to remain calm and in control of ourselves during scary situations.
I know it's a serious situation, im not at all disregarding that, but I also can't help but giggle a bit when Jethro goes, "oh, that woman is SO drowning😦"
Thank God for these lifeguards they are heroes indeed! I have never seen such strong swimmers! They are amazing at what they do!
Most rip current are 15 to 20 feet in width. If you are ever caught in one, swim in the opposite direction that the current is going (right or left) and you will be out of it in no time. Never try and swim directly into it towards the shore.
Thank you for that information! I didn't know!
I never thought that lifeguards were working so hard from my perspective nothing ever happened when I went to the beach. Respect to these heroes
Each season is a whole summer condensed into a dozen episodes or so. Action packed!
“And I thought my wife was bad with directions” 💀🤣 he was next level
Its amazing and sad that most dont even have the humility and decency to thank these people for saving their lives. Shame.
my anger issues could never with the second one. 💀
Same 😂
I’ve been in water below my waist and the next moment being dragged away. The feeling of helplessness is extraordinary and frightening. It does happen in a flash. I was taught don’t fight it, go with it until you can swim back with the current. I fully understand people that panic. They’re only ten meters from the beach yet helpless. Lifeguards are saviours of the seas
So much respect for all lifeguards
I’ve just recently got hooked on BR and my overwhelming feeling is of the stupidity and ignorance of some of the beach dwellers. You have to admire the patience and professionalism of the lifeguards.
All this time of watching Bondi Beach rescues, and I just came up with a great idea. I think placing some strategically placed floatation devices that are anchored to the ocean floor would help a lot!
I'm so glad y'all said something about people smiling when getting saved! They flat out don't understand. And when I see ppl coming out of the sea lifeless then ppl getting saved and laughing it's annoying.
May be nervous laughter. I once thought I was about to be eaten by a bear and I burst into laughter and was just hysterically belly laughing even though I knew I was about to die. Luckily it did not eat me but I always wondered why I reacted like that. Then I realized alot of people begin to laugh or smile as an adrenaline fueled pure terror response.
you lifegaurds of this beach are awesome , great job done with all the rescues . Chappo is amazing
Just WOW, these guys really working so incredible hard, just impressive. Saving so many people 🙌 really awesome ❤ I believe it's one of the most difficult job's in existence, so intense, emotional and exhausting. They never giving up and just keep on going. I'm very impressed.
I love that his first thought was to call his mom to let her know he was a hero and saved someone’s life
Beardy always makes me laugh with his personality!! Great job boys
This is the second show of theirs I have watched and Beardy and the long haired skinny kid are the ones that actually seem to care, the girl too but she wasn't really in this and I think she only works in the tower. The rest need to understand that not everyone fits nicely into a puzzle THEY create! What their reality is doesn't make it the truth.
It’s not much you see the ladies in the bondi videos , but they are honestly so smart and pretty at the same time
I would have loved to live in your country and do this job. People underestimate the waves!! Good job🥰😍
So true! Can't underestimate the waters!
I live in Michigan and we don't get waves like this but the undertow is terrible at times. You hear stories that are just upsetting like the dad who ripped his two girls out of the undertow but was dragged down himself only to be found floating miles away off shore days later. It's terrible. Most beaches in Michigan don't have lifeguards. You all do a great job. I commend you for your work.
The guy at 41-42 minutes is a clear sociopath, wanting to make it onto the show. I can't imagine the frustration of these lifeguards.
Jethro is such a good life saver
This show inspires me to become a lifeguard when I get older!
Honestly, even I feel inspired to do so. But I doubt that they usually have any trainees who start at age 30 😂
yyou dont get much money from that job
@@zarahalora7567 They make more than I did working in laboratories in the US. I wish I had skipped University and done something else.
@@jaelynn7575 Australia is looking for skilled workers from a load of different fields, we also pay more (a LOT more) than most US employers
@@hugh_mungus0184Give me an example of a skilled laborer that would make more money in AU than USA
Good thing they look over the beach so well.
Love that not only the volunteres are there but also the public when need is be and they're near till the guys are there. Gotta love people that help.
I live in San Diego. Relaxing is the first thing.
If you CANT swim, DONT GO IN THE WATER! The lifeguards also have families.
Bondi surfers are so underrated
If someone has just swam you close into shore……surely it’s common sense when he points to shore that you walk that way and not back out where you nearly drowned?
Watching your videos restores my faith in humanity ❤❤
Love all your Bondi Beach videos :D It just doesn't get into my head how you'd decide to go swim in the open ocean when you actually can't swim good enough or even at all! Crazy these people. Love the rescues! You have a handful of work there! Would love to visit Bondi Beach one day! :D Cheers mates!
Thank you for everything you men and women do!
I hate how people feel the need to circle the life guards when someone is hurt on the beach
Or need to use the defib and MUST open a females suit at times and a crowd watches and films. Creeps
Those people are often helpful though. I have spent 25 years in the medical field and in training, you want people there. People to be your eyes and ears and to be a go-for or even to take over if you are exhausted. It's hard to hear over people laughing and water, so those people near are helpful. Most are concerned. If they aren't getting in the way of the way of the rescue, it's all good. Depending on the circumstances that crowd is also helpful to show emergency crews where to go. Not every emergency has someone in a watch tower guiding paramedics. So an ambulance crew looks for that crowd.
@@amandastakeonit7402 i completely agree with your statement, and im glad someone else finally said it and explained it in a way that can easily be understood, thank you!!
How lucky these people are to have these guys ❤❤
What a stressful job! Good going guys. These beach goers are ridiculous.
Congratulations too the ROOKIE on His 1St Rescue 👍✊👏👏👏
I Love You called Your Mom🥰 Cherish Her, and Tell Her How Much YOU LOVE HER, EveryDay!
