They say dozen of people were on the store staring at the drowning teens and the couple was only ones who could do something about it.
Everyone else was paralyzed.
The girls were at Nallikari beach in the seawater and their feet touched the bottom.
Then one of the girls somehow went a bit farther and stepped onto the part where it gets suddenly deeper, the ocean depth is 4 meters instead of 1.3 meters.
She went into full panic mode and managed to pull the other girl into there as well. Now they both panicked and it seemed as though they arent actually capable of swimming.
There is a sign post that says "abandon all hope who passes this line" the girls didnt read it.
The middle aged couple realized the beach guard isnt up to the task of saving the girls.
So they both jumped to the seas and swam towards the girls, it is maybe in distance of 150 meters.
Each of them took one girl and pulled her onto the shore. Then they resuscitated the girls.
One beach ongoer said "I called the ambulance do not worry." Then Esa asked her "why didnt you try to, like save one of the girls by swimming". "Eh, I cant swim, the woman, 30, said".
Ambulance arrived and clapped at the couple "you did a good job, a great job".
