Saudi Arabian Tourist Swims for Five Hours to Save Wife After Jet Ski Capsizes off Pattaya
Picture from responders. In a dramatic act of endurance, a Saudi tourist swam for over five hours through the dark waters of Pattaya to seek help for his stranded wife after their jet ski capsized during a late-night outing. The incident unfolded just past midnight on the night of December 13, when the Pattaya Marine Disaster Prevention Unit received an urgent distress call about a Saudi couple whose jet ski had overturned in the bay off Jomtien Beach. The couple, identified as 26-year-old Mr. Abdulrahman Mahdi M. Alamri and his wife, Miss Atheer Saeed A. Alamri, had rented the jet ski earlier in the evening. When they failed to return at the agreed-upon time, the jet ski operator initiated a search. However, it was not until Mr. Alamri reached the shore that authorities were able to launch a focused rescue operation. Wearing a life jacket, Mr. Alamri swam more than two kilometres through the dark waters of the bay, driven by the determination to save his wife. Despite the physical and mental toll, he persisted for over five hours, eventually reaching Jomtien Beach, where he was spotted by a passerby. The concerned bystander quickly provided initial aid to the visibly exhausted Mr. Alamri and alerted the authorities, sparking a coordinated rescue effort. The Pattaya Tourist Police, the Pattaya Marine Disaster Prevention Unit, and rescue volunteers from Rojanatham Sathan Sattahip mobilised patrol boats to scour the bay for the missing woman. After an intense search, Miss Alamri was located approximately two kilometres from the shore. Clinging to the capsized jet ski and wearing a life jacket, she was found weak, shivering, and battling exhaustion after hours of exposure in the water. Rescuers brought her to safety, where she was provided with medical attention. Both Mr. and Miss Alamri are reported to be recovering and are deeply grateful for the swift response and assistance they received. Speaking through a translator, Mr. Alamri expressed his gratitude to the authorities, volunteers, and the local community for their efforts. “I was terrified for my wife’s life. I had no choice but to swim. I thank God and everyone who helped us,” he said. The Pattaya Marine Disaster Prevention Unit praised Mr. Alamri’s heroic efforts, noting that his determination saved his wife’s life. They also commended the quick thinking of the good Samaritan who alerted them to the situation, enabling the successful rescue operation. -- 2024-12-14 -
