A video showing a foreign tourist bravely saving two drowning swimmers in Sanya, Hainan, on June 2 has gone viral online.
According to eyewitnesses, a man and a child were struggling in rough seas when the foreign tourist, spotting the danger, rushed into the water with a life ring to assist. "The waves were very strong, pushing the two victims back and forth," said Mr. Wu, who witnessed the incident. "At the critical moment, a foreign man swam out with the life ring, pulled them to shallow water, and with the help of others, all three were brought to safety."
The person who filmed the rescue added, "The foreign man swam toward them and managed to pull both out. Then, other experienced swimmers helped bring them back. The rescuer was exhausted afterward and rested on the shore for half an hour."
On June 3, Sanya police confirmed that the initial rescuer was indeed a foreign national. The two drowning victims were hospitalized after the incident, and authorities are still investigating the details.
The foreign tourist's heroic act has drawn widespread praise online. Netizens commented:
"We must 'track down' this foreign friend—he risked his life to save others! He deserves an award for bravery!"
"Saving lives knows no nationality. His kindness is commendable!"
"Let's find him globally and treat him to a meal and a tour!"
"People all over the world are a family."
