Pro Australian surfer Mikey Wright has saved a drowning person in Hawaii.<\/p>\n
The moment was captured and shared on Instagram showing the heroic save in huge swell in Oahu.<\/p>\n
The Wright family, who are a clan of world-class surfers including Tyler, Owen and Mikey, are all very aware of just how unpredictable the ocean can be.<\/p>\n
Mikey and Tyler were on the beachfront on Oahu's North Shore when they witnessed a beachgoer getting swept away in the strong current.<\/p>\n
"He's gonna need to get saved," Mikey says in the background of the clip before bolting toward the water.<\/p>\n
"You can't save him," yelled a woman not sure he could get down there in time.<\/p>\n
