BSA Crew-911 had nothing to do with this spectacular rescue... However one of our members has first hand knowledge of the event. This video was edited from over two hours of material from the security cameras at the Miller Dam near Austin, Texas. It is amazing that neither victim was seriously injured though one actually went through the gate.
Met the guy that went over the dam tonight, interesting story.

This was all over the news locally and also nationally. I saw it on Dateline NBC also!
The Newspapers said that the Rescuers seen in the video were two Austin Fire Fighters. Fire Fighter Christopher Lafferre and Lt. David Brietzke.
FF. Christopher Lafferre can be seen grabbing the woman's upper body and Lt. David Brietzke on the bow with the feet.
It looks to me like they could have easily met the same fate of the man who was swept away..if not death! Brave Men if you ask me!
