  1. Practice swimming, you need to be able to swim both fast and for long distances. You nee to know all kinds of life rescuing stuff. And you need to be concentrated and able to spot people in danger  easily. Good luck!


  2. go save some1 from a pool YO~

  3. speak to your  local surf rescue club

  4. get urself a swimming certificate and take some training lessons on first aid then apply to swimming pools or private beaches (I guess..)

  5. D stands 4 doing 4 others

    explore ur surroundings 4 the way of supporting the needy

  6. Yes you can enroll on a course for life guarding. They run them at the bigger pools. or apply for a life guarding job and they will enroll you on the course. The course consists of a lot of swimming and rescuing they teach you all the techniques and you will have to get a book published by the life guard association because there will be an exam part questions and part rescue. A scenario will be set up and yo will have to rescue everyone you get marked for whom you go for first. the dead ones leave till last. hope that helps I was a life guard for a while and enjoyed it. You have to have your eyes peeled all the time and no break with the looking it is not just glamor at all. It is hard work.

    Ps I got my swimming technique up to a mile so that I would have the strength to pass. You will have to do this every three years as the bronze medel you receive for life guarding only last for that long.

  7. talk to David hassle huff
