I got caught in a strong rip outside Long Island New York when I was about 23, and way before I knew what the hell a rip was. The group I was with were all hanging out on the beach, and I went in the water for just a quick dip/swim. What seemed like a fairly reasonable distance (maybe 25ft?), I looked back and saw how far I had actually gone out, and immediately I could feel the strength of the current when I tried to swim back. 30 seconds or so and I kept getting pulled further out and was seriously starting to panic, while frantically swimming in place to absolutely no avail... Finally one of the locals yelled out and mimed "swim sideways!" After what was another good amount of time, I FINALLY escaped the rip and the waves helped circle me back to shore- I'd be lying if I said I wasn't shaken and totally out of gas. Rip tides are no joke, folks; get careless or arrogant out there and mother nature will humble you VERY quickly. Anyway, glad you're okay Mr. Jim. 👊

Yes Jacob I think knowledge is key with riptides and could well save lives. Ive been swimming a lot recently and I thought I would mention it as knowledge saves lives. To be fair this was a strong current I think, I really did panic as I has just started sea swimming. I now swim daily, but stick to safer places and never swim when the tide is on the turn going out, that's when people get their problems. Your experience sounds terrible, glad you survived.

I almost died yesterday because of a rip current, in one moment I was within arms reach of my two cousins and after 1 big wave crashed I washed off my eyes and looked back to see they were FAR away from me and at that point I couldn't feel the ocean floor anymore. I did exactly what this guy said but just know sometimes swimming diagonally won't work and even then you CAN'T panic. At that point all you can do is float and keep and eye on the next wave that's going to crash against you which I did while yelling "I need help, I'm not kidding I need help NOW". Thankfully this random guy heard me yelling and he immediately jumped into action. He swam right up to me and put his body behind mine and told me to kick off him which I did, that helped get my feet back on sand and then I turned around and leaped back for him and once we gripped hands I yanked him towards me so hard and after that we were home free. I was so afraid for him because he literally put himself in the current to help me. I also know alot of drowning victims sometimes kill their rescuers out of sheer panic so as soon as I realzied he was here to help I made it a point not to grab all over him, I only grabbed his wrist. Was so unbelievably horrifying to realize I came so close to drowning. I was doing everything right and still I was taking in water, and that's when I realized just how serious my situation was becoming. But earlier that day I should've known better, I could feel just how strong the current was but because the beach flag was yellow (means calm to moderate waters)I brushed those observations aside. So please to anyone who has a flag system on their beach, don't fully put your trust in it because the water can change in a split second. You never know. And always trust your gut, if you feep the current is strong then don't go to the second sand bar, it's not worth it. I shouldn't have gone out so far but I did and I almost died because of it. The ocean is no joke. But yeah if swimming diagonally doesn't work just remember we humans have natural buoyancy so don't let your panic take over, if you panic, you won't be able to float and that rip current WILL eventually release you. So if that guy hadn't saved me in the time he had my plan was to survive the waves (if I could) until I made it out into open water where the waves wouldn't be crashing against me over and over. And never EVER try to swim back to shore, it will NOT work and you WILL get tired as stated in the video. It will also make you panic more because you'll start noticing how you're making zero progress.

They went to Costa Rica for a week vacation, the resort they went into doesn't have a warning signs about the rip current, and they should have put something to aware the beachgoers who dont know about. They dont even have a lifeguard. It took place on Thursday 4th of August 2022. They dont even published it, theres no news like it never happen.😭😭😭💔 Croc's resort and casino sucks.. dont go to Costa Rica you guys. People died there and they dont care. If you want to go to the beach just go to Florida, SC, California where theres people who care people.

This guy is why people get caught out , he could of got cramp , attacked by shark , anxiety attack ,which freezes all of your senses and makes you unaware of where your surroundings are , or just drown . No one even with him which is crazy or life guards to spot him , another victim waiting . Thanks for showing us all how not to swim out alone or let a current drag you out

Not use to these here in Winnipeg but a few winters ago for a wedding we went to Mexico to celebrate. We'd swim off the beach and there was no issues,we took a tour boat out to an island and we did some swimming there. On that island and in ankle deep water is when you can really feel the strength of the ocean. The beach shore was quite steep and the drop off to about 50 feet deep was pretty immediate, I never got swept out and wasn't worrying too much as behind us anchored was our boat but the sheer strength of that ankle deep rip tides is no joke,it felt like I was literally trying to get sucked off my feet. Be safe out there,water doesn't discriminate.

Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for the support! Jim

Never been caught in one but it seems the rip is NOT your enemy - it won't kill you. The current just moves you to a different part of the water yes? It's panic-swimming towards land and depleting your energy which kills you, exactly like the sudden-onset panic you see here, this is how it happens, so don't do this! Distance from shore is what makes people panic, so don't see it as a big deal, if you can float and swim you'll be fine even 10 miles out imo. Don't rush to get back to the shore, you need to stay well within your limits at all times so just gently swim to the side to slowly move out of the current then aim for a bit of the beach to the side of where the current took you out and swim at a gentle pace. If it takes 10 mins to get back in let it, there's no rush, stay calm and stay well within your abilities, you should be going slow not going fast in this situation. If you are being swept round a headland or taken out on a strong tide the same applies, the first thing you must do is conserve energy and float and wave or shout for rescue. This is how I see it, seems logical.

I cannot stop laughing! 😂whose bloody idea was this.

What the hell, as a kid back when I was 10-17, my mom would take us out to the beaches and she wouldn’t supervise us much, we’d be gone for like an hour or so into the waves. The beaches were populated and very public with lifeguards at least.. but I was and still am the extreme type of dude and I remember I’d go deeeep in, where I couldn’t touch the ocean floor by a long shot . Anyway, this one day I couldn’t come back, in which I’m sure I probably would have either been saved by a lifeguard or died (if no one saw me) but luckily, this dude I never met must have seen me struggling, we locked eyes and he extends his hand out , I swim towards him and he pulls me back to where I can touch the ground. Thanks man, who ever you were! I’ll pay it forward Anyway, for my future kids, I’ll make sure to keep a damn close eye on them. I’ve seen videos of kids drowning JUST FEET away from an adult in a pool.

Also remember folks don't panic so you can get the maximum amount of air into your lungs and not water, once you have a good amount of air hold it for a few seconds this will help you float easier on the surface, time your exhale and inhales between waves and ride the waves back in when you have escaped the rip current.

Damn, I teach people how to not swim against tide but parallel to beach until stops then can go in. Well done for same advice

Not sure how many times I’ve been caught in a riptide and never even noticed.

I wonder if I've ever been caught in one and just didn't realize it? I do remember having trouble getting back to shore before but because I didn't know about rip currents I probably just kept my cool and somehow managed to get out. 😂😂 also, hilarious ending

i got caught in one today and it was honestly really scary. i didn’t know what was happening until after i was rescued. i was trying to swim out and it was making me go further out and i started to yell for help from some near by swimmers because i could no longer touch the group and immediately started to panic. but they were getting swept up too. i was trying to calm myself while also trying to swim back to shore when i noticed life guards were coming into the water, and that’s when i really started to have my anxiety attack. i realized how serious this actually was when they started to show up but i also knew that they would help me. the life guard who pulled me in was super nice and definitely helped calm my nerves. he explained what was happening and what he was doing the whole time. the waves were so big and we both kept getting pulled under but eventually we made it to shore. i’ve always had some anxieties around the ocean but was starting to feel a bit more comfortable after many years of my older brother being brave and showing me what to do but this has definitely set me back. i’m just glad my younger brother didn’t get pulled out. he just happened to go back to my mom right before the current got really bad. it was super scary but i’m thankful everyone made it out alright :)

Imagine a great white lurking behind

Born and raised in Australia where going to the beach is pretty much your highest ambition in life and your second home, it's generally always hilarious seeing foreigners tackling the ocean with all their sun protection and accessories, not to mention their general uncoordinated goofiness which you've clearly recognised here hence the comedy music. Sometimes its terrifying seeing foreigners near or in the ocean, luckily they usually preference swimming in front of a lifeguard between the flags. Cool to see the southern point of England too, I always wondered what that looked like. So with being in the ocean or any body of water, be it a lake or river or whatever, for me its like a second part of my brain and body is activated and I become like a dolphin just about, and sometimes a bit of a whale, flying out of the water and landing sideways back in, that's how I approach it, I learn from the animals that do it best. Sometimes I might want to enjoy the wave hitting me front on, so I time it out and tense on impact along with holding a good strong stance, I do this as an exercise to better deal with the various shit we have to deal with in work life etc, it helps condition the muscles and the mind to absorbing impact without it phasing you. Anyway, glad you still had fun and were a friendly presence on the beach happily talking to people - "Good sport!"

I was stuck in a current with my twin sister and we kept getting pulled out further and further I really should have screamed for help but the only way we were able to escape was by Pushing up the ocean bottom with my foot and I was holding my sisters hand I was able to pull and yank her ahead of me I shouted to her go because I didn’t want her to risk saving me because I got her ahead of me and the whole time I was having a panic attack and my body was so exhausted I was about to give out swimming. Toughest fight of my life and of course we tried going back in ocean the previous day and it fucking happened again… we watched the news following night and they was saying avoid the beach cuz there was high currents from a distant hurricane but like we didn’t know and every time we went in ocean there were atleast several plus other guess but we were vacationing in NC. I don’t think I will ever go into the ocean again I honestly feel like I have ptsd from it it still terrifies me thinking about it. I even tried swimming parallel and it didn’t shit that’s why I had to keep pushing off the ocean bottom even though it kept pulling me deeper into the ocean making it deeper and harder to kick off from the ground.

I knew Whitsand bay was bad for the rips, but this did freak me out and my camera was nearly ditched as I really thought I was in trouble. I actually swim most days but never at whitsand, lesson learnt. Thankd & best wishes

5:20 10 seconds earlier he explained what todo. starts panicing, trys to swim straight against ge current. lol. Even if you would have been the best swimmer in England, you wouldnt have had a chance vs a Rip. Only knowledge saves lives here. Paddel parallel to the beach into breakin waves.
