San Diego lifeguards rescue girl trapped under sand at Mission Beach 

It happens every year. Ban garden shovels on the beach.

Interesting. I saw a video from Brazil from 2022 showing a girl drown in a small pool that had 6 other people in it. Then a few days ago in las vegas a 56 year old woman drowned in a community pool that had multiple people in it and multiple people sitting outside of it. This one had a lifeguard that for 5 minutes or more wasn't present and didn't see the lady drowning.

@Shymeen44 In my opinion, based on my conversations with them and from what I've seen them doing, they don't feel compelled to provide free advice to the ignorant, and they only spring into action when a red alert happens. They watch the water vigilantly from the towers, and there are usually 2-3 per tower about 500 yards or so apart. This time of year, there are hundreds of people on the beach. There are rules posted everywhere, but just like with speed limit signs, a percentage of the population doesn't think the rules apply to them.

i was there, she was making a hole with her friends and it collapsed trapping her. Im a little disappointed the helicopter was just recording, I thought it was a airlift smh.

@kimberlyphifer2391 A cubic foot of sand weighs around 100 pounds. Digging deep holes at the beach is extremely dangerous...

@@MrWazyF Airlift? That would have been incredibly dangerous and useless.

@@MrWazyF- I figured that’s what happened.. unbelievable that parents haven’t learned not to allow this anymore… AND the lifeguard on duty!

@@Winnas The City of SD probably needs to post warning signs about the hazards of tunneling and digging in the sand. Post the signs in Spanish, as well.

Let's get something straight. These aren't "sand sink holes". These are holes that people dig. I'm on the beach every week and see these idiots bringing their garden shovels and digging these massive holes, allowing their kids to play in them, then leaving the beach and their giant holes (and usually a lot of garbage) behind. They are even digging tunnels into the ledges and letting their kids crawl inside. I tell the lifeguards, and they basically say you can't fix stupid. Survival of the fittest, I guess.

​@@BarbieDahl2024 Exactly

😮!!! I've never heard of such a thing! Horrible

@MsLhuntMartinez79 I'm glad you think so. The attitudes at the beaches I go to in Southern California have really changed over the last few years. There are pretty much two types of people out there, and it's pretty obvious. There are respectful people that come to enjoy the nice beach and not destroy it, leaving it the way they found it, and there are people who apparently think it's all about them. They bring glass bottles that break, leaving broken glass. *No bottles are allowed on the beach. They bring dogs on beaches where no dogs are allowed, and some even walk away from the poop. They bring food and drink and leave trash everywhere, which washes into the ocean. I'm now finding vape pens and drug needles. These giant holes are simply selfish disregard for others, and it's getting worse. There is no funding for enforcement. That's what it boils down to. Maybe the media should start making Public Service Announcements.

@PorchTea I really hope something gets done. We went to Huntington Beach this past April. It blew my mind! Yall have MOUNTAINS on your beach!! That's not even fair, lol. The weather was warm and cold while the water was freezing. There was someone with a sign that said "Need Money for Wexd" 😆 I respect his honesty. I really did enjoy the beaches. ~Love from Texas

Right!

😂😂😂😂weirdo lol wtf is he doing?

LOL

@@00calimon😂 good catch! Dudes really a good hype-guy lol It’s like when you start digging in the sand with your dog and it encourages him to do the same.

He was probably filling holes that are previously dug so no one gets hurt again. A good citizen

Thank you for confirming that the volume is off 😂😊 I was looking for this comment because I thought I was trippin lol 😆

She was either buried in the sand too well, or the sand she stepped on was too hollow and collapsed underneath her. I don’t really know, this is just me guessing.

i was there, she was making a hole with her friends and it collapsed trapping her. Im a little disappointed the helicopter was just recording, I thought it was a airlift smh.

Isn’t that illegal now, because of the young girl last year or so that was berried…sadly,🇺🇸🕊

That was such a heartbreaking story,, Buut Very Avoidable & i hope more ppl become aware of the digging dangers@@saythankyou111

@@saythankyou111A lot of people don’t think, things that is fun to do many times is illegal like drinking & driving, speeding & many other things.

I thought the same thing

Estupid

😂 lol.... that's funny.

Menso!

@@frankthetank4101 Hola

Looks like it to me. Hmmm????

The headline says rescue so she should be alive

She survived, i was there😭

Unfortunately 2 minutes was too long for my attention span too, you must have only made it to the 1 minute and 30 second mark like I did before I passed out. Now we’ll never know what happened.

Skip to end, they help her walk
