bloody hell, good on those lifeguards. They don't get paid enough for this kinda stress.

reckon the pool's safety standards are a bit average if she almost died there

Ben Sullivan2026-07-23T19:19:22.000Z

true, but lucky she was at a pool with lifeguards and not at the beach

So glad your ok Lorraine! Lifeguards are legends! 💪

nah shit happens, main thing is she's alive. Give the lifeguards a raise

Casey Adams2026-07-23T20:21:22.000Z

yeah nah but still, pools gotta have proper safety. One lapse and someone dies
