Coming from a country without sea, I might be a bit naive but I really thought that scenes like that only happened in the Baywatch TV show. It isn’t the case since teenagers are selected early on to be part of the rescue teams that watch the coast. And believe me, their training would get you drowned after less than 15 minutes.
