Imagine being him when he was found. Probably something like “oh thank god! A boat, hopefully it’s the coast guard or some kind people who can help me. Is that my family?!?” Glad he’s ok

This is the definition of a family. They wasn't playing lt waiting .. something that came over her and told her to slow down was the presents of our father.

As the mother of one, a son...I would be out of control. I'd hunt the entire ocean until I found my son. When she said to slow down & just listen, that was her spirit knowing the spirit she carried for 9 months. It's a bizarre mother/son connection.
Grandpop is the man!! God blessed this family!!!
Dylan is a miracle thank you Lord all praises to him!
This guy have a great family, his mom handled that interview like a pro
Tip of the day: NEVER go diving with strangers from facebook🤯🤦♀️

That shining moment of recognition must have been euphoric for all of them. The relief must have been palpable, not least of Dylan’s. Amazing rescue. Truly amazing.
Praise God! Thanking God you had a boat to go searching!
MOTHER,YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL .
Respect to the driver of the boat. Thank God.
Take my tears dam imagine the relief
This Family should be so thankful for another-chance and He shouldn’t be out in the sea again don’t waste your chance to be alive again 😊
That's crazy amazing. WOW
How awesome
Amazing.
Awesome story
best mom ever
God bless!!
A true miracle!!!
God has plans for this young man's Life.
It just blows my mind how something like this can happen. Everyone on the boat had to literally forget that Dylan was with them.

They weren’t. He was alone and his boat got swept away by a strong current. The family heard he was missing and came to the rescue.

God is Great. He was meant to live
"It's a miracle mother of man" that rhymes
His mom???? What a hottie!!! Looks like his sister!!!
Like hit a jackpot.
This is the ultimate "sprang into action" thank God they didn't just wait and let the officials handle the search and went out on their own
That guy was not fazed!
What a lucky man. I wonder if a GPS isn’t warranted.
YAsssssssssssss!!!!!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉
Grandpa ain't playing.
Haha, Dylan is still mamas little baby 😂😂 jk, we are happy to still have him. What a smart family
Just curious... for backpacking I have a GPS emergency beacon that will send my location to Search and Rescue in a major emergency. Isn't there something similar for diving? Either to S&R or just to your partners on the boat?

There's similar gps device's for boaters but divers and freedive spearfishers rarely have them while diving

Yeah so those gps locators usually activate when they get to a certain depth in the water and or off contact with water. For obvious reasons they wouldnt work while diving

There is a product that could help that is non tech. I am completely unaffiliated but have never forgotten the See Rescue Streamer from Shark Tank. I'm legit serious- please look it up, y'all. It is good for just about any conditions and REALLY elevates your chance of rescue visibility.
He’s lucky it was still light
It’s really sad to hear this incredible miracle and not one time was the fact that it was GOD who did it was mentioned. That is who saved this boy. Praise his holy name!

When they were on the Tamron Hall Show, Dylan’s Mother said she credits God and his Angels.
Since seeing this I'll buy a waterproof gps radio from west marine.
You touched his leg? What is that anker thinking?
Get a tracker next time bro, gotta watch those underwater currents
Real goot news...please stop mixxing ur coverage withe phone chrgr tht does not work a scam...I bought one n conned n swindled by not being 2 opt out was charged 4 two @ 54$...Im a senior on fixed income and my phone is damaged 4 using it...Im n need of help 4 damages done 2 me by that Scam...!!!
I call fake. Why filming when on the boat? Shouldn't you be looking? Also, he drifted THAT far in what....max of 6 minutes?? So that current must've been going 20mph? Also you never dive solo...and carry a DSMB. And...why wasn't the coast guard out looking instead of the family? Whole thing seems phony...but if it is real, I'm glad he is safe!

Lucky the FAMILY rescued him because the Coast Guard only "find" migrants so they can be sent back.
