This man is hero but how can you float out. You will be too far from shore

It's salt water. Easy to float and you tread to stay up. When you come out of it the waves going in will help carry you back in. And while treading you can start to make your way parallel to shore to get out of it sooner.

Do like I would do and start screaming like a bitch. I only get in the water with a green flag, even yellow I stay on the sand
Or whatever color flag it is for mild water

You really don’t even have to exert energy treading. Just remaining calm will keep you bobbing up and down riding the waves. My daddy told me it’s a lot easier to save you if you drift out than it is if you go under and drown. Believe it or not once the rip is done with you the ocean will start pushing you back toward the shore. And you’ll still have energy to swim along with it.
