Heroic Saudi Husband Swims 5 Hours In Thailand To Help Injured Wife

Hera Shabbir

A Saudi tourist took his husband duties to a WHOLE other level and was SUPER dedicated to help his injured wife. He was said to have swam for over five hours to get help for his wife after their jet ski capsized in Pattaya Bay, Thailand.

Abdulrahman Mahdi M. Al-Amri and his wife, Atheer Saeed A. Al-Amri, were reported missing on Saturday evening, prompting a search operation by Pattaya City authorities. According to Nattanon Chamnankul of Pattaya Sea Rescue, rough seas and poor visibility made the search challenging.

Exhausted but determined, the 26-year-old alerted authorities to his wife’s situation. The rescue team continued their search and located Atheer six hours later. Despite minor injuries, she was safe. Their jet ski had capsized, and its engine was damaged by seawater, leaving the couple stranded. After resolving the incident with the jet ski operator, the couple returned home safely to Saudi Arabia.

That’s husband goals on a whole new level, and people are super glad they’re both okay!
