MXA 16-year-old lifeguard in Santa Cruz, California, performed a heroic rescue during massive waves at Seabright Beach, saving a 10-year-old child who became trapped in the surf. The incident was captured on video by a bystander named Scott Vander Dussen, who described the intensity of the rescue. The young lifeguard, identified as Ryder by his mother, fought against strong currents while ensuring the safety of the child. Despite attempts by others to assist, the situation remained dangerous until another lifeguard joined the effort and helped bring the child to shore.

President Trump later announced plans to invite Ryder and his family to the White House along with the rescued child to award them a high civilian honor.
