Episode 4 of 10

The RNLI volunteers race to the rescue of a rock climber who has fallen over 40 feet, a paraglider who has crashed into the sea and a man drifting offshore in a toy dinghy.

Although the lifeboat crews are on call all year round, it’s in the summer months when they’re at their busiest. As holidaymakers flock to the coast, the lifeboat crews and lifeguard teams are on high alert. When the sun is out, the sea cliffs in Dorset are a draw for climbers from all over the country, but when one falls over 40 feet onto an inaccessible rocky ledge the lifeboat crew have to work out how to get her to safety. In Cornwall, another extreme sports enthusiast needs saving when a paraglider misjudges his launch and ends up crashing into the sea. And the Redcar lifeboat crew search for a man who has drifted over a mile offshore in a small toy dinghy.
