A big water based rescue by the Belgian military:
Authorities in Belgium launched a rescue operation after a couple were spotted ‘struggling’ in the sea – only to find they were making love.
The alert was raised after a man from De Panne spotted the couple with his binoculars and contacted the coastguard, reports Het Nieuwsblad.
A Sea King rescue helicopter from a military base in Koksijde, a lifeboat and local police officers were all drafted in to help the couple.
But when the two swimmers were finally ‘rescued’ they complained there was nothing wrong with them and they had never been in any danger.
The 23-year-old girl, from Waterloo, was wearing only her partner’s boxer shorts while the man, also 23, was completely naked.
Sounds a whole lot better then shooting at their rescuers, huh?
Teach, haven’t I told you to stay out of the sea when doing that?
Hey, haven’t we all been caught somewhere?
Ha ha ha… OK, where was that in the news and how did I miss it?? Dang.
OH! I SEE!! It was you! Even better…
That water was cold, too!
That is way too funny. I wonder who was more embarrassed, the merpeople, the rescuers, or the nosy guy with the binoculars?
