Rhine River Mishap - Elderly female engages in paddleboarding vertically
In the Breisgau-Hochschwarzwald district, a 74-year-old lady took a tumble off her stand-up paddleboard into the Rhine. According to the authorities, the elderly woman tipped over but grabbed onto a floating tree. Due to the powerful current, the woman required a helicopter rescue team to pull her out of the water. She emerged unscathed but was apparently showing signs of hypothermia.
The rescue operation was necessary due to the strong river current, as the 74-year-old woman's accident left her struggling to stay afloat. Fortunately, she was able to avoid any serious injuries, but her body showed signs of hypothermia after the ordeal.
