🌊 Une vague scélérate dangereuse a failli emporter un enfant｜TF1 INFO

An adult runs into foaming surf, catches a child being carried toward the sea and lifts them clear of the water in footage published by France's TF1 INFO television news service.

The clip begins with two adults near a seawall as water spreads rapidly across the beach. Within seconds, the child is caught in the retreating water. The man rushes forward, reaches down and gathers the child into his arms. "I got you," he says, before carrying them away from the shoreline alongside another adult.

The report identifies the location as Cannon Beach, Oregon, on the United States' Pacific coast. Its closing message is that even a low wave can be dangerous.

Although the upload was published on November 11, the footage's on-screen caption dates the rescue to November 8, 2020. This is an older incident being shown again, not a rescue filmed this week.
