An 18-year-old at the Jersey shore says he helped a group of swimmers in need of rescue.
Chase Calhoun was about to go surfing when his friend told him there were three people stuck in the water underneath the Ventnor City Fishing Pier.
He used his surfboard to paddle over to the man and two women.
“They were just holding on to the pylons, like wrapped around the piece of the wood, like lookin’ like they were holding on for life. I’m a strong swimmer, I surf a lot, I never had to rescue anyone though,” said Calhoun. #news #rescue #jerseyshore

Wow 😮 that's so scary. I'm glad you were all there and rescued these folks. The water is refreshing but never turn your back on it.
Thank you. You are a great human and a real hero.
Love that warm Atlantic water…. not great for surfing but great for bobbing around in.
Look how beautifully brown and frothy that water is.
