I realized that he was not the same and I go into the sea, I turn him upside down and I try to take him to land, but because he was a bail I didn’t do it. I started shouting, I asked to call an ambulance. A young man comes, helps me, we take him to land and start alternately. While we were caring for him, we see that he was coming out foam. It had a pulse but it was weak. After 20 minutes we stopped and then EKAB came and received it, “he said.
