Two lucky fishermen stranded in the middle of the sea found safety in the hands of some naval officers who spotted them.
Apparently, the two had gone fishing in their boat, which capsized, leaving them struggling to stay afloat and alive.
Fortunately, they were able to stay afloat by holding on to a floating object.
They were later spotted at sea by a passing naval vessel, which intervened to save them.
A video that surfaced online shows naval personnel throwing life preservers to them, which they swam and held onto as they were dragged out of the water.

dousmorfarms: But the rescuers were unprofessional, you should have gone with ropes and life jackets, they shouldn’t have allowed them swim…Huh.
Thank God for strength.
mizkimoraprecious: God bless them for coming.
Men that went fishing ended up being fished.
