Local photo/video hobbyist David McMaster captured this footage on the weekend. Dramatic scenes beautifully filmed as someone rescues this guy and brings him home – in a barrel nogal..

From David:

In big and powerful surf a bodyboarder at a Cape Town beach break took a big and heavy wave on his head and suffered a concussion and whiplash and was struggling to stay afloat in the rip. Had Aden Kleve (trained lifeguard) and Wilder Schultz not reacted as quickly as they did, things could have gotten bad and in all likelihood the guy would have drowned. Respect to these guys!

Epic stuff.

Good job, guys!
