Bondi Rescue

Tragedy strikes when a husband and wife are washed off rocks by a double-overhead size wave. Lifeguards search desperately in hope the rescue doesn't become a body retrieval.

When the big surf comes to Bondi, it's only the brave or foolhardy who venture into the water. Lifeguards are on high alert to help surfers separated from their boards in pounding seas.

Predicted to be the hottest day of summer, lifeguards prepare for a huge crowd.
