Life Dead swimmers washing up on beaches this Labor Day weekend

Sadly so many young swimmers, even in excellent shape, venture into the ocean and succumb to rip currents. These occur often on the Eastern Seaboard. NY, NJ, DE, NC seeing deaths.

This Labor Day we are up to at least 4 deaths of people who never learned how to escape rip currents. It's so easy yet people panic and swim back straight into the currents, exhausting themselves.

To escape you face parallel to the beach and swim straight, ignoring if you are being pushed out further from the shore. At some point soon, you will be outside the rip currents and can easily and safely ride the waves back to shore.

Another large group of people had to be rescued as well.

Please learn how to escape rip currents before you venture into the ocean.

Horrible and tragic way for a vacation and holiday to end.
