Watch: Lifeguards rush to save washed up baby Great White Shark
Updated | By Justin Paul James
Thanks to a group of selfless lifeguards, a baby Great White Shark managed to make its way back into the ocean where it belongs.
There are some truly majestic creatures living in the ocean, and one of them has to be the Great White Shark.
But sadly, every now and then, they get washed ashore, and if there's no one around to save, it may result in the end of its life.

Good Things Guy reported that a baby Great White Shark recently washed up on the shore of Victoria Bay in George. It was Joshua Farrer who spotted it, and luckily he had his GoPro to capture the moment.
"In this video my friends and I came out of the water after a morning surf, then we noticed a baby shark struggling by the rocks," he said in the description of his YouTube video of the rescue mission.
A group of heroic lifeguards close by rushed to the scene to try to lead the shark back into the ocean, which didn't help due to the waves pushing it back ashore.

Joshua then volunteered his surfboard to transport the Great White back to where it belongs, and, thankfully, it worked. He said: "We eventually got the shark back out to sea and saw it swim away :)"
