Be Careful When You Go To The Beach, This Is Dangerous And Can Kill You Especially If You Don't Know How To Swim - Boy Trending

When you go to the beach, be careful and watch the sea first especially to those who do not know how to swim.

If you see a space crossed between the waves, do not plan to go in to swim. That is a RIP current. One of the greatest hazards to ocean swimmers. These fearsome, invisible currents can pull swimmers or waders well away from shore and result in thousands of drownings and near misses a year.

Rip Currents are powerful channels of fast-moving water. According to the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, they move at speeds of up to eight feet per second and “can move faster than an Olympic swimmer.

 A family in Florida found this out the hard way when some children were caught in a rip current. Family members who tried to save them were trapped as well, before a human chain consisting of more than 80 people pulled them back to shore.

Watch the video below to know how Rip current happens and how to escape with it.
