If you notice on the beach instead of wool, stay on
It looks calm and tempting, but don’t be fooled.
Many people confuse these areas in the ocean in the ocean to a safe place to swim or relax, they do not know they can enter a deadly trap. Each year, countless beachgoers are captured by this hidden danger, leading to tragic accidents that could be prevented by proper knowledge.
This quiet area in the water is probably a torn stream, unpredictable and strong flow that can occur anywhere along the coast. This part of the water often looks darker due to its greater depth, has a smoother surface and lacks the usual crashing waves.
If you enter the torn current, it can pull you to the sea at alarming speed – so fast that even the Olympic swimmer would try to return. RIP currents are responsible for nearly 80% drowning on the beach.
If you ever catch you in one, the most important thing is to stay calm. Instead of swimming directly to the coast that exhausts you, it floats parallel to the beach until you get free from the stream.
Be sure to share this information with your family and friends to stay safe and enjoy the ocean!
