Summary

Two boys, ten-year-old Subby and his twelve-year-old cousin Kizza, were trapped by a sudden, deadly tide at Blackpool’s South Pier—clinging for dear life as waves surged around them. Their mother watched in horror from shore as her sons vanished beneath the water, while even a grown relative was pushed back by the current. Within minutes, the RNLI lifeboat crew arrived, pulled them to safety, and saved their lives. The family, visiting from Leeds, now urges everyone to check tide times, carry a charged phone, and stay vigilant—because a simple precaution could prevent a nightmare.
