“Beachgoers in Oregon pulled a struggling swimmer to shore by forming a human chain after she and seven others were stranded on a rocky outcropping during high tide.”
“These young people handled themselves very well in doing what they needed to do to save this girl. She would have died if they had not put their heads together and responded like they did,” said a witness.
The rescue took place in Fogarty Creek State Park.
