Seems NC is not the only state this summer with struggling swimmers.

This is a heartwarming story of a good guy right after his wedding coming to the rescue of someone who probably would have drowned without his help.

Wife says she got a hero and a hubby all in one day.

What a great guy, he worried about getting blood on her dress.

I can imagine someone in this situation thinking, “What will I do for an encore?”
OR
“Did I set the bar a little bit too high?”
.
Seriously, this is a great feel-good story.

...so he stripped off his shirt and went in after the swimmer..”

Hope he took off his pants and shoes too. It’s a bitch to swim with those on.

Good for the groom. I’ve noticed a good many weddings on the beach at Orange Beach over the last few years.

“Seems NC is not the only state this summer with struggling swimmers.”

Several people a year drown on the beaches in Alabama and northwest Florida. Mostly tourists but some locals as well. We have some hellacious rip tides. The ones on the east coast seem to get more national media attention. I think this year may have been exceptionally bad for them.
