Allahbadia said he struggled for five to 10 minutes and started losing consciousness before he called for help. Luckily for him and his girlfriend, there was a family swimming nearby and immediately came to his rescue.

“A casual, fun dip in the waves was interrupted by an underwater current that toppled both of us. The next thing we knew was that we were both struggling to stay afloat,” the YouTuber wrote.

“There was a point during the ordeal where I swallowed a lot of water and started fading away a little bit. That's when I decided to shout for help. Deep gratitude to the family of the IPS officer husband and IRS officer wife who saved us both,” he added.

“This experience left us feeling both blank as well as grateful. We felt the protection of God throughout the incident,” he wrote.
