The big azure ocean welcomes everyone who seeks solace in its waves. However, for the ones who do not know their way around the ocean, it may drown them in its infinity. That’s where the lifesavers come in. The surfers and the swimmers might be versed with the ocean, but the guards who save precious lives from the clutches of vicious waves are the real heroes. Once, an Australian lifeguard shared a rather terrifying experience from one of his rescue operations.

A year ago, in a YouTube episode, an Australia-based lifeguard, Trent Falson recalled a horrific rescue anecdote of his career, that apparently terrified him to his core.
