Saw that earlier today. Quite sad. Sounds like he was a good guy - there was an interview with a friend of his on cnn.com who was understandably torn up about the news.
I was chief of a volunteer fire department and I ran into a lot of burning buildings. Swimming through sharks to rescue a bloody person is way above that.
Maybe we could hire him and put up a tower on Bozo Island.
Yes, paddle out 1/4 mile, swim with the sharks, get him out of the water and back to shore– definitely medal-worthy. Schafer sounds like a nice guy. How come jerks never get eaten by sharks?

Thoughts and prayers...
I hope they give that lifeguard a medal.
That was definitely the equivalent of running into a burning building. A very selfless thing to do.
