Saving naked guy from ocean

Buy video

Im a professional photographer in the Boston area (Eric Snyder Photography)
I was traveling Ibiza Spain for a week doing an overseas photography excursion for The Paradise Challenge www.theparadisechallenge.com
I was standing about 100 yards from the ocean just watching all the other models and photographers ,and I looked out and saw this guy just swimming, bobbing up and down, I looked at him and gave him a thumbs up twice, he looked like he was having a hard time swimming.. The 2nd time I heard him as best I could say "help" twice!! Thats when I yelled to a couple of the other guys that the man was having trouble staying above water. So the 4 of us ran as fast as we could to about 100 yards down the shore on the rocks. all the time thinking how sharp they are and if we fell it wouldn't have been very good! I was signaling the guy to swim across the shore and not towards it, the rip currents was extremely strong! I had a small towel in my hand that I used to reach out to him and hold on to the rocks. I grabbed his hand and it slipped the first time and he fell back into the water, and the waves pushed him up close to me again and thats when I grabbed him and pulled him up onto the flat rock, and thats when we discovered he was naked!!! LOL!!
if you watch the video, at the moment you'll see everyone turn and start walking away hahaha! we knew he was okay after getting him out of the water!
