Incredible jet ski rescue captured on camera

Marcelo dos Santos recently saved a family of five from drowning off the coast of White Beach, Bertioga, near Sao Paulo, Brazil.

The incredible rescue was captured by dos Santos' helmet cam.

To reach the distressed family, dos Santos, who works for the local firefighter department, braved the dangerous surf on his jet ski, tilting the craft to let the three scared children climb aboard.

After rushing the kids to shallow, calmer waters, he did it again, crashing over the waves to reach their parents.

Everyone returned to shore safely.
