I got caught in a rip current in Malibu when I was 11. It was like a hole opened in the ocean and I fell into it. The waves were coming from all four directions. Luckily I was on a Boogie board, it kept me above the surface. The all of a sudden a red lifeguard float bumps me in the arm, there was a lifeguard saving me. I held that float and he towed me to a lifeguard boat a few yards away. They took us down shore a few hundred yards and he towed me in.
It’s one of the scariest things that happened to me as a kid. No Boogie board and I don’t think I’d be here.
