Lady Knocked Over By Huge Waves - Whitby Coastguard Rescue - Young Child Put At Risk Of Drowning.

[@thewhitbyphotographer]

For those of you who keep saying The Girl never got knocked over. Check out this link. Please feel free to comment your thoughts on what happened. kzbin.info7y3RrfB-bJA?si=XHvRsCcd9biePXfs

[@SnowPink90]

Exactly!! She was near where the wall goes down or it looked like she was close. They just don’t think whatever of the danger. What would’ve happened if she broke her leg? Because a bigger wave did hit again after she was up on her feet and made her way off. She would’ve been in a lot of trouble if she went over the other side with broken bones. Added Those coastguards put their lives in danger always having to save people who don’t use their brains and get caught in these conditions.

[@mandy_loui5e]

Some people are just idiots. Not only are they putting their own lives and their children's lives in danger, they also risking the lives of the coastguards who have to rescue them!

should pay the coastguards a fee,

Those who were rescued should now be charged with endangering the lives of the coastguard staff (and also the child) who had to assist them. And then they should be fined the costs of the rescue operations. Another example of "you can't fix stupid".

Unfortunately, people who have never grown up by the sea, just don’t appreciate how dangerous even a small swell or tidal flow can be….nevermind a storm surge, living on an island..🇮🇲. It’s heartening to know that the majority of manx residents, have great respect for the power of the sea, and the damage it can inflict , glad this situation had a good outcome.👍🇮🇲👌

[@jensmith3719]

i havent grown up by the sea but its not rocket science seeing those waves, just gross stupidity and selfishness, modern day life and too many people make excuses for their behaviour,

[@sarac.3259]

It's like everything though - _some people_ have no concept of what could go wrong - they think they know better. I live in London - a mile from the Thames - and have huge respect for the sea and all waterways. When ships and boats can be lost in stormy weather, it's fairly obvious that humans can be tossed about like confetti. Huge respect for the Coastguard.
