Amid a hazardous rip current brought about by Tropical Storm Barry, Florida beachgoers formed a human chain to rescue a swimmer in Panama City.

Despite the Panama City Beach Fire Rescue’s warnings to the public to stay away from the water, officials still received a number of calls about swimmers in need of rescuing. According to People magazine, some 38 water rescues were made on July 14 and one person was found deceased amid strong rip currents.
