Surf Life Saving Wales rescue techniques

[@biokey5022]

I am also good swimmer but l never practised to save someone from drowning . In this video , I learn many rescue tips . Thank you

[@efloof9314]

My friend was drowning once and i used myself as his pushing device to get himself out im basically a fish so it worked but i wondered if there was a better way to help him (it was just in a pool) nothing to do with rescuing in open waters

[@jeviasgodasmywitness6753]

Im wondering if its that simple to jus hold them and swim dont u sink?

[@norville_cooper]

Yeah same, I've tried them and they are really usual...

[@miftahilmi6784]

this events only can done if the victims is calm down if not everything going worst. trust me panic person are the dangerous one they keep grabbing pushing pulling do anything.

Lifeguard: Hello, I am a lifeguard can you hear me? Hello? Hello? Hello? Hello? Swimmer: *face-planted down in water* Me: Is he ok?

[@LucasCosta-wn2xn]

The first part is ok, try to establish criteria of consciousness. Clearly the person is not well.

[@lightspeckthefury5863]

So is the person ok our no I am just wondering

[@lukmanpelu9175]

So unconsius person cant drown?? What a relieve.

I came to see proper saving technics after saving yesterday big drunk man in Athens beach, dragging him around 250 m to the shore with my wife. He was almost unconscious, not moving but he was barely breathing. I used technics, holding his head from the back , swimming only with my legs and my wife pulling man’s arm. I did not use any of my arm to increase speed, focusing on control of man’s head above water. Indeed, it is interesting to know shall I use one arm to increase speed but decreasing head control? I am very good swimmer, did 5k and 10k open water swim, but I was totally exhausted after 250 swim to the shore. No rescue assisted us in the water. Hope the man survived, he was barely breathing at the shore, finally rescue arrived at the beach and ambulance took him fast.

[@cintulator2]

That grab-a-chin technique is great, a drowning person will take you to deep if you approach him or her from frontside.

Thank to your team. Well done 👍.This could provide alot of knowledge for us .❤️👍

[@oneill7254]

And what if the person being saved is struggling? Pushing the lifeguard Down. What should they do in this situation?

[@prickyguy2353]

Come from their back where they can't reach you

[@HorseyWorsey]

You go under water. They will let go and try to surface, where you come from behind, grab em, and start a collar tow.

[@austinbigelow6862]

Swim down so they let go

[@Auxillia]

The most important question here. Need this to be up at the top.

[@nikolairose2739]

Yeah you escape their grip by fleeing underwater. They will let go quickly once they realize that holding onto you is a sooner path to the light lmao. Then you surface from behind them and hopefully by then they can relax enough to realize it's either let you do your thing or continue sinking.

[@fW1Kzt]

Great Work and Thank you

[@mariaravandiel1209]

The other week ago my brother was swimming fairly far out and got in trouble. I didn't have to put his head on my chest and use the scissor stroke, but after that when I was practicing saving him, I realized he would be pretty heavy if I did do that (and a floatie wasn't at hand). Do you have any suggestions for what I should do if we were in deep water?

[@Beachwise]

Hey, it is actually very difficult. As a women who has practiced saving the VERY large male lifeguards, we have to use our body and strength differently. I had to put my face in the water and keep their waist up with my hips as I side stroked. Face under was easiest for me to get planed out...

[@gowtammahida6899]

Are surf lifesavers and lifeguards two different jobs ?

[@maryammmorad2357]

Do you know what makes difference? When you don't have any of those equipments and still have to rescue someone.

[@vinodbhosle2674]

Very useful🙏 n valuable video I was looking for something like this.

[@Mafioso-gp8hf]

I think the life guards on the video need somebody to save them hahah

[@gvtrivia6780]

When we tow someone with cross chest or chin, in our club we use double leg thrusts and then one arm strong pull. If it’s with a tube we we do same but at a point we stop and do a power pull with the rope so that the tube and patient comes forward so that is a less of a drag when swimming to shore. At all times maintain sight of the patients head and direction to the correct exit on the shore

[@figueiredodiver]

yes, it is never recommended to swim without looking at the victim and without leaving your airway out of the water, perfect

[@owenmorgan2382]

Double leg thrusts all the way! You could technically swim side stroke and have the towing arm on the clip behind the patient. It might cause additional drag as the patient would be almost sitting up in the water.

[@Mr.Shuppandi]

But the drowned person will be in panic condition and he will not let us to take him like this calm methods... Most chance is that he will try to climp our body. What will we do in that conditions..? But it was good tip's and thanks..

where are you from? In coastal california we had Junior Guards where kids and teens would learn safety and lifesaving instructions.

[@jakedovey7488]

It varies from country to country and organisation to organisation!

[@mghbhgm7091]

4:22 So, I'd say I'm a pretty good swimmer but I've never practiced saving (or dragging, I guess) someone using this technique. Now, I would say it doesn't look that hard but can anyone with experience tell me the level of difficulty of using this technique, given you're a good swimmer but with no experience in lifesaving?

[@ZoiBox]

mghbhgm it’s reasonably easy, like trending water but sideways.

[@lightspeckthefury5863]

Ok so if you are lifesaving does that mean you are a live guard our no just wondering OK

[@mghbhgm7091]

@@lightspeckthefury5863 nah I'm not a lifeguard, just wondering if I could use this technique to help someone who's not a great swimmer (they can swim, just not that well) get across a small stretch of water to get to a secluded beach

[@lightspeckthefury5863]

Oh ok that's great!!!!!Thank u for letting me now

[@jakedovey7488]

No they are different in the UK, surf lifesavers are purely volunteer and club based, lifeguards are full time paid professionals!

[@KaungHtutPaing-eh4xx]

Who is watching to save people from the flood as a volunteer

[@jakedovey7488]

A flood is completely different training and risks, leave that one to the trained professionals!

[@rcvlog73]

The casualty face down on the surface of the water it means no breathing, or no fulse . Pls do not swim free style back to the shoreline much better swim side stroke so u can see casualty..

Its part of the training simulations.

[@dolphinsdaydreams]

To all the ones who think it's safe to rescue someone with no gear and no training, better actually do lifeguard training. People in risk of drowning and panicking can actually drown you too. The situations shown in this training are not near to what reality can be. You can swim like a champion but if you don't know what to look for or don't scan the water systematically you will miss the ones in need. So my advice, please watch some actual near drowning videos so you can recognize the ones in need of drowning and can act before things become instantly life threatening. If you get a victim to shore who swallowed water or choked, the most serious part just starts, so learn first aid and be aware of the risks of secondary drowning.

[@figueiredodiver]

10 breaths in water increases the victim's chance of survival by four times, the technique of swimming facing forward while the victim is unconscious trapped in the rescue tube is inadvisable as water gets into the airways and further impairs your prognosis

[@owenmorgan2382]

Agreed - with closer, more contact tow techniques you have more control. The idea behind this (agreed with SLSA Wales, RLSS(UK) and the RNLI is that it’s the quickest way to get the uncon patient in for BLS/ALS or further treatment.

[@bobgraham1791]

Around 6.21 when it shows the Lifeguards wading, then dolphin diving, followed by freestyle, why are they going in to the water with T-Shirts? I can understand rash shirts - but wouldn't a T-shirt create so much drag that the lifeguards would actually save time by taking it off before going in to the water? I always assumed that Lifeguards would take a second to quickly pull of their T-shirt before entering the water... Also, does learning Butterfly make it easy to dolphin dive? I am learning to do Butterfly - but I want to be able to do dolphin diving... don't have anyone to teach me. Or to ask the question another way, how long will it take me to learn to dolphin dive when I find someone to teach me? One lesson? Two, three?

[@Chirpingcherub]

its probably because they are training I have never seen any life guard enter with a t-shirt

[@bobgraham1791]

@@Chirpingcherub Thanks for your response:-)

[@uisneaghmullen3328]

I'm pretty sure It's for training. In IWS they do it because you might not be in your swimgear all the time, you could just be walking down the pier fully clothed and have no time to take your clothes off

[@uisneaghmullen3328]

In the training you also have to swim with clothes which is very hard to do and it does create a lot of drag. I think its for a real life scenario. maybe your boat sank and have to swim to safety 😂. That's what I remember

It's a wetsuit (I think)

I went through the scariest situation were my nephew had fell down a a sand hill in a river and me and the father were about 400 ft away making our way to our spot witch the kids ran into the water and started playing with my daughter So he fell down the bank into deep water. His sister with lots of courage went in after him Right away my daughter started yelling for us I started running the 400 ft to them she was under because the boy was dunking her down to stay up I ran as fast as I could jumped in and swallowed a few mouth full of water couldn’t catch my breath but got to them got them to safety Lucky there was a broken down tree so that’s were I took them then me and father swam them across Could of been worse if my dougter jumped in to save her siblings
