One lifeguard came across a man having a heart attack on the side of the road

The incidents happened on the Causeway Coast and in Co Down with the first incident taking place at Downhill Beach on Saturday, August 6.

"When she said he wasn’t and that she was worried, I told her I would go and get him. I swam in and by this stage the boy was further out and behind the breaking waves, but his head was still above the water. I asked him to hold on to my arm and we swam in until he could stand and then we walked to shore."

Paddy got out of his car and double checked with those gathered that an ambulance had been requested before doing an initial assessment and then administering casualty care and doing constant monitoring until the ambulance arrived. The man was splashing and scrambling to stay afloat. Stuart immediately swam to his rescue at which point the casualty was going under the water.
