#Florida #Rescue #Diving
I remember this. The family didn't wait for coast guards. They had their own boat and went out and handled business ❤ salute
I can't stop watching this.
When it’s someone’s life and one of your own, that’s why they took the boat out. That 20 minutes more on the water could’ve given him health issues.
I thank god they found him. His mother was hysterical . It’s like you bore that child. Your face was the first one your kid sees and vice versa .
Rich people scubba diving then takes out private boat 😂
Family is everything ❤️
He has angles
The moment you realize your family got your back and never gave up on you.
Or, maybe bc the diver had the keys to the car (?) 🤔 🤔
how was he lost? there was bouys where he was and and even larger bouy in the background, i dunno man i don't believe everything i hear on the internet these days.
@@davidk7859 hahaha
@@davidk7859 Quite possible
AMEN
We all felt that joy, no matter our race or class. We're in this together ❤️
❤Amen that mothers shout of "My baby is here is so heartwarming it doesn't matter what color you are if you have ever missed a child the emotions are colorless
@@KPCooler
One race.
@@RLS424this family will be so tight. The mom, the family, the diver who was all alone...just amazing!!!❤
AMEN...INDEED...
Oh yeah? Do you feel the same about the children drowning in Rio Grande?
This young man knows what it is like to be desperately loved. That hug was the hug of all hugs!
He also knows what it's like to be desperately lost in ocean treading water I could only imagine what thoughts were running through his mind I'd like to know how this happened to him I'm glad they found him
Imagine the anguish he was feeling only to see your family roll up to rescue you!!! My god, what a miracle!!!!
That's beautiful ❤
God is great all the time!
YES!! All glory to God!🙌🙌🙌
"I knew they would come". I can hear it now ❤
Massive stroke of luck that they found him. It usually ends badly. Great ending, thankfully 😁
I can only imagine the anxiety the family was going through. The ocean is neverending. To find him is nothing less than a miracle.
Praise God for this absolute miracle!
Them? Dude was out there alone. Facing death lol and your feelings are for them? Isn't that a bit odd?
@kristinastauffer7403 yes. Your fairytale helped so much lol crackpot
@@iamoneofmany7618I agree so much
@@iamoneofmany7618Most of the comments are about the family tbh, what about the boy who was constantly burning energy trying to stay afloat, what abt the boy who could have travelled thru a family of jellyfish and been stung into a state of excruciation, this family never felt a pun of what he felt. This will affect him bad for years to come
He is one of the lucky few to be found while lost in sea, much less alive 💙
Not to mention that there were no bright colors on him or the buoy.
God is good!
@@vickeywhite8189all the time !
I can't imagine the relief of the parents. The son has been found. God's grace was upon him. 🙏🙌
He will NEVER have to question his family members love and loyalty! Greatest gift! ❤
From the sound of it, I don't think he ever did or would.
You now have an angel in your midst. Thank God and Hallelujah ❤️❤️🙏🏽🙏🏽
My family be like "Paul who?"
@@kathykeys4183amen❤
@@pauln3368im sorry 😢big hug to you❤ Jesus loves you, Paul
Can’t imagine being stuck in the middle of the ocean thinking you’re gonna die and then all of the sudden you hear your entire family yelling your name and they’re all on a boat trying to find you. You would think you’re hallucinating. What a wonderful, loving family. Can’t believe they found him. Beautiful moment.
I wouldn’t have been out there in the first place. What a blessing they found him.
How long was this very, very, very lucky man out there???
@@user-wf6in1uc7w Hours
😅 Some of us would be hallucinating because what caring family, he's a lucky boy.
@@user-wf6in1uc7wI read 7 hours, they found him just as the sun was setting. He's got the whole story on his insta. He could see the Coast Guard searching for him, but they couldn't see him.
Imagine that feeling.. alone.. wondering if he will survive…
And the his FAMILY shows up!!! His FAMILY! Thats love! ❤ God bless them!
A true miracle. They did what they needed to do. ❤
I got lost at sea for an hour after my friend’s boat sank. No one knew we were there. Boats passed nearby and no one saw us, it is the worst feeling. I had to make peace that this was it, I was a goner.
Out of no where a small boat saw us and that was the best moment of my life.
I can't imagine how terrifying that must have been. I'm glad you're okay
Thank Goodness! I AM SO GLAD YOU WERE FOUND!
Is that how you met our mother?
Rest in peace
God bless you!
He was gone for seven hours, they never gave up on him, that's family and friends ✌🏾
Who wouldn’t do that for their loved ones.. I’m sure they would have gone more longer
Not friends. Just family. Let's be clear with words here.
@@scholaroftheworldalternatehistFriends can be family too
@@shilohwhiloh9636he meant those friends are family for what they did. 😅
He was missing 31/2 hrs...he stated that in an interview
I love their determination in not waiting for the coast guard!
God helps those who help themselves ❤
@@positvgal8God helps people regardless if they help themselves or not. God’s unconditional love, mercy and grace. A love many humans don’t have and can’t understand. God’s unmerited favor and HIS agape love.
Determination is universal. The difference is some have boats, some have to wait for Coast Guard..
@@Gwendolyn-dr6rzTrue but he can’t always just ‘step in’ without prayers. We have free will on this earth and he doesn’t interfere without prayer. ❤
@@Gwendolyn-dr6rz but one must be willing to help themselves, they took off to go looking, greatfully finally finding him, in time b4 dark, but we cant forget those rescuers who do try, hard work, in these situations for to have these outcomes. So blessed he was found. Incredible such great big ocean just a spec in the ocean, seen and found. Wonderful blessed outcome.
As a mother, I could feel her relief as soon as she saw her son!! 🥹🥹. So glad they found him ❤️❤️
Angels were on his side guiding this family. It was almost dark out and he would've been impossible to see just a half hour later. God bless this family
I was headed 4 Prison or Death by 21 or less, no one believed I'd make it, not even me. If it weren't for God, I WOULD NOT be here🙏 I still feel guilty that he saved me instead of those who are more deserving. I can never repay him, so I'll continue to spread his word & help those in need (clothes, food, blankets, etc...) Many blessings to you & yours🙏
@@SW-Lopez1980good for you. ❤
@@SW-Lopez1980 we're all equally deserving of God's salvation. He chose to save you for a reason always remember that. Maybe it's bc he knew you'd help those in need and share your story. Or maybe it's something you've yet to do. Only God knows why he does things or allows certain things to happen , which we don't understand. God bless you as well 💕
@@SW-Lopez1980 You're just as deserving as anyone else!
You are absolutely right!! He definitely has a guardian angel looking after him
Imagine thinking this is how you die. Only to look up and see a boat filled with family and loved ones coming to your rescue. ❤❤❤
Country girl is an Angel-heaven is looking for you countrygirl
I’d look up and see a shark about to have his next meal
The thought made me tear up. He’s very blessed
@@Ray-bw2jzStrange…
THIS COMMENT
I bet that diver was the happiest ever when they found him!!!
This is the type of family members we all deserve
Even as a grown man, ain’t no love like a Mothers hug…
somebody speaking the truth and I wish just one more. RIP mom
My son just turned 59 and one thing he knows is that no matter how old he is he will always be My Baby Boy❤❤❤
I don't hug my mother, I don't talk to her either. She will likely die alone. Most of us had terrible mothers that destroyed our fathers. Some of us wont forgive them. U are lucky If you have a decent mother, then again yall look rich anyway.
FACTS, I would do anything to hug my mom again
@@ednafruchey7386same, oh my how I could have that hug 🤗 mama Rip my love 😍
I am a diver myself. I cannot imagine being out there all alone for 7 hours. Thankful his loving family didn’t give up.
Several hours, not seven hours.
Greetings 😊
As a diver who once got carried out to the blue by strong current when my team and I were surfacing, it really is a scary experience, thankfully one of dive operators' boat pass by and spotted us and alerted our boat to fetch us.
@@TARS20. Ugh ! Can’t imagine that. 😬
There are no sharks in there😅
Thankfully something else didn't find him before they did
I am crying watching this. So glad they found him.
Crying happy tears for this family. God gave them a miracle. ❤
Imagine a boat coming at you…and it’s not the Coast Guard or other rescue team. It’s your crazy family who loves you more than anything and was not giving up on you for a moment. ❤️
***Edit: Wow! Thank you so much for all the sweet comments here. I’m just a soccer mom behind a keyboard with a big dumb heart who had a turkey video go viral accidentally. I took it for my kids thinking it was cute. They thought it was super lame. 🤷🏼♀️
God bless! ❤️🤗
I wish I had a family that loved me😢
@@shureemunden4504Find a man to make or simply be the family that loves You
@@shureemunden4504 Create that family then!
That was perfectly stated
Such a lovely comment thats why its good to have a little crazy in your family! I watched this over and over again.
I read that the family chose not to wait on the coast guard and searched for their son immediately. Potentially saved his life.
Where'd you read that? The top comment?
Oh I'm pretty sure it did save his life.
I was just thinking hours is nothing, but lost at sea? Holy shit duck that
@@ashleydodd9145lol that's what I was thinking. It's literally the comment above this one😂
Rien est hasard dans la vie donc oui fort possible
Dylan got me in tears ! Thank GOD they got you !
That young man was praying HARD❤
They found him just before it got dark. A few minutes more and he would have been truly hidden. It is a REAL miracle! Amazing timing!
FR!! 😱😨
You're right. That sunset is just minutes away from black. I am terrified of the ocean. I can't imagine anything worse!
I saw that evening was falling quickly. Thank God,
God is right on time every time !!
Then the sharks would have showed up.
Like finding a needle in a haystack. A diamond in a dust storm. A blessing that many don’t receive. So happy for the diver and his family !
Your so right, every word. Its almost impossible to see a small boat. Much less one young man. Wow amd incredible.
Yes, praise our Heavenly Father. He was really shining a light on Dylan that day. I saw someone else said never dive alone. I add a gps added to a diver, something like a snow skier would have been more helpful actually than having a buddy then two May have been lost. But I think buddy diving is a rule of thumb. Currants are so strong. Take it from someone who knows. My husband drowned in a strong currant. 😢 So happy for this family.😁💞🙏
Not really. Notice the diver marker buoys. They were heading to that location. That's what he clung to waiting for rescue. The coast guards was enroute by sea and air. The family was closer, so they headed out to the area he went diving at.
@@freedomforcaster1783He was with at least two other divers. How else would the family know where to head to try and find him. The other two divers left the 3 dive buoys to mark the location.
That’s awesome
Best thing I've ever seen,this is family never giving up on there own.
Its a great feeling to have people who look for you and embrace you and actually care. I hope if I ever get lost folks come to find me like this!
This gave me chills 1. To be the family to see your loved one is ALIVE and 2. To be the guy thinking, it’s getting so dark I might die, and then see your family coming to the rescue. Ughh this is so wonderful.
The Bad News- You are naturally born with a sinful nature and have broken at least one of the law (10 commandments) at least once in your life (Example: a lie) (James 2-10 says if you break one of these laws, its the same as breaking them all), so because of this you're on your way to hell already, everyone is (Romans 3-23)
The Gospel (Good News): JESUS, Who is GOD in the flesh, came into the world and died for us, to free us from the curse of the law (10 commandments) and ressurected on the third day so that whosoever BELIEVES in HIM will not perish but have everlasting life! GOD said this! GOD cannot lie (Titus 1-2, Hebrews 6-18) we can lie because we are sinners. JESUS saved us already (Colossians 2 13-14) Just BELIEVE and TRUST in HIM! HIM ALONE, anyone who gives you another Gospel, whether an angel or one of us, let him be accursed, like it says in (Galatians 1 6-9) JESUS ALONE! Not religion, Trust in HIM and you will receive the GIFT of THE HOLY SPIRIT. GOD HIMSELF! JESUS said "Repent ye and BELIEVE the GOSPEL" (Mark 1-15). AMEN!
That kid is soo LUCKY and LOVED!!! THANK YOU GOD!!!!!
@@kathycondon4734amen thank You Jesus 👏🏾🙌🏾 I got teary eyed
Total chills
Gave me chills too! How blessed this young man is. I hope he knows!
Now that's a family that cares. That's how family is supposed to be. Dude's blessed.
What family wouldn’t do this!?
Yes.. they just had the resources to start the search immediately ❤
Right lol my family would’ve left me😢
He went out for a dive the following morning
Praise God Hallelujah Amen Amen 🙌🏻👑📖💗🫂🕊️❤️🩹🕺🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Oh the sheer happiness. Nothing in the world mattered in this moment but their son. From desperation and fear of every horrible situation ended in moments. I can’t begin to imagine those emotions his parents had.
One of the best feeling on earth when found your lost son or daughter.
Can you imagine the range of emotions for Dylan? This moment in his life will never leave him. How blessed he is!
He was probably thinking of the sharks, that were going to turn up.
He definitely thought it was over
Dylan’s words, Oh my God, that was amazing. Keep an eye on him. Bungee jumping and motorcycle racing is next.
He probably has school shooter heart rate, never gets above 60bpm
He knew he was fckt
Shoutout to Dad for not waiting for someone to find his son ✊🏿
So thankful he was found safe and unharmed. I pray for the families who don't have resources to search for their missing loved ones!
Amazing! In a half hour would have been too dark to find him. He definitely has a guardian angel looking after him❤
I don’t even know these people, and it made me tear up
You like me especially when the mother scream my baby
Me too
He looks good. He had on the right gear b
😢🙏🏿🎉 Thank You Lord 🙏🏿 God Almighty! O’ JAH 🙏🏿
Me too!
Please don't do this alone. He is one of few that got a second chance.
He wasn’t alone he had a crew with him he just happen to get swept by a strong current. Nobody noticed. He was reported missing after they realized he never emerged.
I heard he was there with snorklers he met on Facebook, when they noticed he was gone they just left, and it was his family who noticed him missing and went out to look
@@munecabonbon idd have to run the fade with each of em. Aint no way they just leftbro to die tf
@@protectyaneck8017 yeah what the hell is wrong with some people
@@protectyaneck8017I got 7 strokes reading that bro what are u tryna say?
I think this family will show God their gratitude in wonderful ways. ❤
Praise God, he was with Dylan, protecting him, he was never alone. ❤
Hours were saved by starting thier own rescue party. I'm so glad he was reunited safely with his family!!
Go Mom and Dad❤❤❤❤❤❤
AMEN AMEN ❤ HALLELUJAH
It’s so rare to find someone who went missing in open ocean, God was with you my friend ❤
The searching must start right the way and it must be done in circles that formed from where they despaired and must go from inside to outside because the water can take you anywhere around that area. And when you get lost at the night and you can't see the shore make sure you stay still saving your energy once the sun come out start swimming in the direction if the sun because the sun always come out in the west what mostly the time is over the land. During the night we can also find a way back to the land if you you know how to read the stars!
You got that right! Amen!!!
you got that right! Amen
@@coachrozineifrom every place on this Earth, the sun rises from the East, brother.
Looks like it was getting dark too
That's village life they weren't waiting on authorities to search they took matters into their own hands, and this was the amazing outcome job well done!!! 👏🏾 praises to his Family.
The pure joy they all feel seeing him, what a miracle.
The fact that they found him is absolutely incredibly amazing. The chances of finding a solo person in the ocean are between slim and none. He's a lucky guy
I'll bet he doesn't go solo diving in the ocean again, & has some kind of tracker on him even with another diver along. Man! If that was a movie, they'd have Matthew McConnahy play him.
His friends left buoys to mark the place, but the current swept him a mile further away. The family was in the right area but still, it was a needle in a haystack situation!
Thank God there was no hungry sharks around
Not luck but very Blessed by the Lord Jesus Christ
How long was he missing?
My brother was gone for 6 hours in the sea off Costa Maya. I thank God he was found his true friends and wife never gave up.!
Anyone with half a brain can clearly see that this is Trump's fault and remember to vote Biden in the next election.
Right right right
This was the best moment in life
This made me cry. My gosh! What an amazing turnout!
As a parent, this hit hard

Yeah, it does.
But not as hard as the slap upside the head his mom gave him off camera.
😭 Yes, it absolutely did! ❤
The mom screaming "MY BABY MY BABY" I literally felt that all over my body her pain and relief
Your comment gave me tears, i can only imagine how she must have felt. I have 5 of my own and 13 grandchildren and i cannot imagine the fear of losing one. But finding your child must alive and well be exhilarating
Now this brought a tear to my stubborn eyes 🥲
The strength is mother's scream gave him..to swim float drag himself closer to the boat..my God ..kiddos to him and fam🎉
I crying with happiness also!!!
i thought she said "buoy" 🤔
I am so glad they found him.
Great job rescuing your son what a wonderful ride home that must have been...
As reported by The Daily Mail, Dylan along with his two friends went for a final dive around the West Sambo Reef when he got caught in a current that drew him below the surface and spat him around a mile away. Dylan’s friends who managed to save themselves immediately notified the US Coast Guard and his family, prompting them to launch an immediate search operation before the sun sets in.
It was around three hours from the time he went missing in the shark-infested water, while his family rigorously searched for him. His family finally found him floating near a reef and managed to rescue him safely.
Beautiful ❤️
many thanks for your information!
Thank you God this IS A BLESSING and one i think this family will NEVER FORGET, GIVE THANKS.
Thank you. I was wondering how he got there....
This only proved how much his family loves him. When the person they loved went missing and didn't wait for authorities to assemble their own search party!😘🏊🏽♀️👀
This is the definition of your family saying “we always got you.“ ❤
you're hot
Best Comment!!!!
God is so great thank u Lord u can hear the excitement n his family voices how happy they r to have found there son what a great feeling I r truly loved now I can stop crying

A him named Julie ?
@@andybrown8996dylan not julie
😢 que hermoso 😢😢
Let's not forget Dylan was a stupid boy costing people time and money but wealthy people don't care , if you go diving go with a group of professionals and respect the sea . The strange thing about this is it all feels and sounds very staged ? Very odd
That's all the angels in heaven are when one lost sinner turns to Christ to get saved.!! The angels in heaven sing!
There's nothing like the love and tenacity of ur family!!! They just don't give up on u!! The wave of Joy and relief can b felt as they celebrate they found him!!! ❤❤❤
The best family you could ever ask for ❤
Holy shit! They had about 10 mins of light left too! Wooooooow! I can’t even imagine how awful that was for everyone in that family. His mother’s desperation had me tearing up.

Im sorry that you do not. If you dont right now, you gotta make your family and find good friends.
Wish I had this kinda family ❤
I was in the navy we had a man go overboad in The middle of the night we we're unable to find him. This kid is so lucky his family got to him before it was dark. God was truly on his side
I'm so sorry. That is tragic and must continue to weigh heavily on you despite how much you tried to find him. I hope you find peace with this 🫂

Oh my! I cried when I first saw this last year and I cried again just now! As a mother I can think of nothing else but the safety of my children. They’re 26, 32 and 34 but in a situation like this? My babies! She didn’t even wait until he was on board to embrace him! 🥰♥️😊
That is a truly wonderful ending. So happy for them.
My childhood friends brother in law, Tim Obey, went missing off Jacksonville beach while scuba diving almost two years ago. It’s the most gut wrenching feeling to hear that they can’t find someone on the ocean, you can’t help but go to a dark place almost immediately. He is gone, but not forgotten.
Sorry too hear that . Prayers to you and the family ❤
Praying for all
I am truly sorry to hear of your brother-in-law prayers go out to him and there family which includes you god bless you and ease your pain this I pray in the name of our lord …. Amen.
That's so awful and a horrible way to die, in open water, alone, surrounded by water you can't drink. I couldn't even imagine.
Oh so sorry that’s sad Rest In Peace Tim Obey ❤
Best family moment EVER. Lesson learned here ...
Don't wait around....go find your family.
almost outta time too, sun had seconds left of light
Sucks for those that can't afford a boat then 😬
I know lesson learned invest on a boat….don’t wait for anyone
I'd say help whenever you can. Don't wait for someone else to do it !
@@3StarLogoask for help from local people who live in the area, that will be the best option. Now we have Facebook in your local community groups you could also try asking for help, there're so many good people that will help others if they can.
That poor Mother who must've had that sinking feeling in her belly before they rescued him!
Thank God!
Persistence pays off. Family is everything.
Imagine that the boat that saves you which is a reeaaally long shot to be found in open sea especially at dusk has your family aboard!!! What an amazing family
Praise God!! I truly hope this made u know and believe there is a God out there if u didn’t already believe ❤

He probably thought he was hallucinating when he heard them calling his name . This is hands down the most joyful video ive ever seen

He’s blessed. 💛
OMG those I shouldn't be alive episodes. Where professionals miss the lost. It's too difficult to see them in the water. Maybe they have better equipment nowadays. Because I've seen some horror stories about this kind of rescue. People were attacked by sharks n jelly fish. That one I shouldn't be alive episode where they was in this boat. Completely exposed n the sharks kept attacking them. The survivor said that the dolphins came to their rescue. Running the sharks off. But they was like out there for days 5 days or more. Their prize boat had capsized n they manage to transfer to the smaller boat. The captain n his girlfriend did not survive. The captain decided to go to the store he thought he seen. He n this other dude. Started drinking the sea water n the captains GF injuries from the first boat escape killed her. Ohh n the two survivors. Saw the captain the other victim get eaten by sharks right there in front of them. When the GF died. They pushed her over board. The two survivors was rescued by coast guards. Yes this time they saw them. But ohh yes. This is a dope family. Id hope my family or whoever didn't wait for rescue either. I damn sure wouldn't. If my fam out there n I can help it. I swear. I'm going to get mine. Plus it's dark too. Dope this family is fricking DOPE.
Miracle! HIS FAMILY UNDERSTOOD!
It wasn't a miracle it was GPS
I cried watching this video, to see how happy everyone was to fine this young man. I put my son's name instead of the young man's and had to cry more like a baby.
A family that never gave up
THAT part🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Huh? He was only missing four hours. 😂 Some families never give up for fourteen years. 😢
Is a Family that
LOVES EACHOTHER !!🙏🌈🙏❤🙏
A family that never gave up
In four hours without someone you love and afraid for their life probably feels like eternity @@rob379lqz
Hearing that first “DYLAN!!!“ must’ve been the most amazing feeling In the world for him
Divers love the oceans, seas and scuba diving so much that they completely forget how much their family and friends love them.
Please take care of yourselves guys .
😢🥺❤
I’ve never been so happy to see someone I don’t know. Tears. Glad Dylan is safe.
Love this
Lol same 🥹
I welled up
U prolly did in real life , but this is top yess😊
How long was he out at sea
“But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him.
Please stop..im already bawling my eyes out..ain been to church in yrs and that one hit hard❤
@epiphany9027 Some messages are meant for encouragement to come home especially if you're thinking what you have been doing whole you've been gone will keep the door closed. Praying for you to accept the guidance and love to follow your path. 🙏🏽☮️💗 Amen
Go back to church; you will only regret missing a good sermon.
Biblical thanks i needed that one
Prime example of WATCH GOD work...if this comment hit home...then run home to JESUS. The enemy wants you to stay lost, ashamed, sad & depressed feeling like no one loves & wants you= lies from the pit of hell. You are Loved You are Wanted You are Needed. Home is in the arms of JESUS.
Thank you Father God this young man Dilan was found & safe in Jesus mighty name, Amen.
Truly a happy ending! I've been seeing all these horror stories about people drowning. Thank goodness he survived!
Aww this made me cry , thank you Jesus
I cannot believe they found him. This was a God intervention! ❤❤❤
Amen🙏❤️🔥 I don't push my Faith or belief on anyone. If more people took a look, they'd be Thankful for all he's blessed us with. Ex: 2 cases of Still born births that were clinically declared Dead by doctors. They told the Mothers to say their Goodbye's, but instead the Mothers Prayed, Cryed, Begged God...& 5-8 min. later... those babies were revived back to Life🙏! Even the doctors & nurses who were present, said: "there was No Scientific Explanation 👀🙏
Dat part 🙏🏽
Ill give the Family the credit thats due. I didnt see God on that boat or anywhere else to be honest.
Amen
That’s exactly what I was thinking!!
That's amazing how they found him in open ocean 🌊. Angels guided them.
Allah guided them!!! 🙏
Gps 😂😂
@@hichembad2512 I love how everyone thanks God instead of the family that actually did the saving. 😅
The guy driving the boat guided them. If it was god then god would be responsible for him getting lost in the first place... and if god creates peril to then rescue you from it sounds like toxic divinity to me
If angels guided them, they wouldn't have had to search for several hours. They worked ceaselessly while in a constant state of dread and panic. Don't be so degrading towards people. Especially those in the midst of tragedy.
This just made me cry. Family is everything ❤️
That's really miracle❤❤thank God still can finding him back alive❤❤god bless
This is absolutely the best thing the internet has offered in a long time. Bless this family!!
Don't have a clue who it is or what happened but I'm just smiling. ..so happy for this reunion
thank GOD they had a boat to go out and look for him🙏 PRAISE GOD!
Same here!
I feel their stress😢
Usually if a scuba diver isn’t found right away, they’ve passed away. The fact that they saw him in that big vast ocean is a miracle. Btw, I am NAUI and PADI certified.
He was scuba diving with a cousin and a friend and the current took him under. By the time he surfaced he was hundreds of feet away from their boat. Dylan was able to see his friend and cousin on the boat, but they couldn’t see him. They even drove around for 30 minutes looking for him but since their dive boat didn’t have lights on it- they had to go to their grandfathers house and get his bigger boat. They had contacted the coast guard but couldn’t and didn’t want to wait for them. So they set out using the coordinates of where he was last seen and they thankfully found him floating on a bamboo stick and also some bouies he cut and made into a raft.
❤the screams were absolutely ADORABLE! They were so happy to see him, this made me so happy then a crying mess! So heartwarming
In such a vast ocean it’s amazing that he was found. 😊
It's the intelligent people who know about the sea God
@@user-jg9gq3bv9uWhich one?
❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏
Localization... Cellphone... Help so much !!!
@@lucianoalvesferreira1362 You think a diver is carrying his phone?
Omg! Look at the Sun setting! 30 minutes more and this rescue mission takes a different turn! Thank you God for this amazing rescue!!!!
Much harder at nite divers need some sort of apple air tag to be able to find them.
🎉
Hes calm and smart didnt let go off the floater and if someone didnt find him at that time he would go to bouy near him.
Sure was God's work huh? 😂😂
@@j22563Seeing how the sun was about to set, yes.
Considering what i was feeling just watching, I couldn't even begin to imagine how they were feeling. My Lord!❤
Honestly i'm crying too..hearing his voice and the family, just amazing..God is good❤😢
Imagine what he was thinking. His family showed up and saved him. I know he was relieved. ❤
He would be relieved either way
