  • Bradford Sandoval is no stranger to being of service to others. Born, raised, and now running a small business in Sacramento, his community is always in his heart. “I try to help, when I can, people in need,” said Sandoval, the owner of Thai Farm House restaurant on Broadway. “What's that old saying? Do unto others as you would have done unto you.” So on a recent trip to the American River Parkway, his nature and knowledge of the waterway put him in a position to do what he's used to doing, lending a hand in a time of need.

    I lost my brother to the Sacramento River in 2017. This man did what so many won’t or can’t, and I hope he knows how grateful the victim’s loved ones are.

    Man, that’s really tough. Huge props to this guy risking his life. So proud of him. What he did was no small feat… I hope he knows he did absolutely everything he could and he’s still a hero regardless of the outcome.

    Real people want to help. Others just pull their phones out and record.

      Smart people know that jumping in the water to save someone will very often result in ONLY your own death.

      Yes, not everyone is capable of this. Some people freeze up in these kind of situations and some readily take action. Saving a drowning person is very risky to yourself, what he did was incredible. He brought him back to his family, even if he didn’t survive 🤍✨🕊️😢 Very very sad, my condolences to the the families & friends of both ❤️

    If you foremost do not know how to swim DO NOT enter rivers or lakes or large bodies of water, especially with currents. DO NOT underestimate the power of water. Imagine yourself as a plastic bag riding air currents on a 40mph windy day, that is what you are like in water.

      I was taught many years ago in a lifeguard course that if somebody is thrashing about and you can't get them to relax before getting a hold of them, then you wait until they expend their energy and get tired. Then you can get your hold on them and bring them to shore without them thrashing and endangering you.

My friend was in tears for days after learning that she did not survive. Even though he is the one who pulled her to shore, he blamed himself for not getting there sooner.
    Water is both amazing and yet, it can turn deadly in just a few short minutes. I have heard drowning is at least a peaceful way to go. Still, my hearts go out to the families of these young men. Heartbreaking.

    So glad this man decided to help. My dad drowned with three people who were with him from shore. Granted, two were teenagers so I don’t blame them but the other adult could have tried to help. They just called it in after the fact but luckily they stayed put so the emergency teams were able to find my dad’s body 5hrs later vs days after the fact.

      I heard a story that Phil Collins wrote the song about someone drowning and the man who just watched. Apparently, it was something that actually happened - an adult watched a child drown and did nothing. Years later, Phil invited this man to a concert, sat him in the front row and sang the song to him.

    Not everyone wants to help man, you did awesome brother. There are those who run from danger and to no fault of their own, and then there is those who run Into that danger to help others in need. That's what makes humanity better than other species on earth. If I can help I do my best to not endanger myself or others in that process. But from what I've seen and I'm sure he saw, there are very few of characters as he and you see that in times like this. He was all that those guys had in ways to help. Emergency personnel show up often to late in these cases, but they are a group of these characters. Good on you man I hope you find peace from the idea you gave it your all. Somethings are out of our hands. Cheers. For those families who lost loved ones, I hope you find peace as well.

      It is often Christians that do these sorts of things. That's always my first thought, and most of the time as with this instance, when listening to them, turns out they're Christian. It is what Jesus did for us, and it is what He told us to do for others.

    People have no idea how dangerous flowing (or even open) water can be. Most people relate it to a swimming pool and that's like relating "Oh, I walked across the target parking lot so I can walk across a 5 lane freeway during rush hour." That doesn't even do the analogy justice. It's not the same. Do not go into open water, especially flowing water unless you are 100% of what you are doing and are fully prepared. Great job to this hero!!

      That's a bit much. I only wear them when I'm in a boat. But, then again, I can, and have, swam an entire mile without stopping, the issue tends to be dependent upon the currents and the water temperatures.

    I had an experience once with an inflatable pool dingy. It was a tiny river we could stand up in. We capsized the boat. It was facing the current and wrapped around us. we were trapped against some branches and debris along the bank of the river. It was more difficult than it should have been to get out of there. Not super dangerous, but close to it. Made me realize how careful you need to be even in mild situations.

    What an upstanding man ❤ No hesitation what so ever 😢 Made me cry. We have rip currents here on the Gulf of Mexico. Instructions are 1. Dont panic. 2. Turn on your back & let the current pull you out 3. When you feel the pull lessening, swim 🏊‍♂️🏊‍♀️ parallel to the shore then make your way back to the beach. Despite these Instructions being posted in all hotels, motels, condo's & townhouses after someone drowns the remaining loved one's & friends always say they didnt see it 😮 They saw none of the signs posted just about EVERYWHERE in Ft. Walton Beach or Destin Florida ⛱
