Two lifeguards pulled him safely back to shore—no serious injuries, and cheers erupted from the crowd. The rescue even caught President Trump’s attention, who praised the lifeguard and offered a White House honor. Over the weekend, California lifeguards performed 34 rescues and made thousands of safety contacts. The National Weather Service warns: stay out of the water and never turn your back on the ocean.
