It’s a bird! It’s a plane! Nope, it’s Bruno Lobo, Brazil’s very own superhero on a kiteboard.
The Olympic kite surfer was out catching some waves off the coast of São Luís when he noticed something that wasn’t part of the usual ocean scenery—a woman struggling against the tide.
Like a real-life Aquaman (minus the talking to fish part),
Bruno zoomed over on his kiteboard with a speed that would make even David Hasselhoff jealous. In a daring rescue fit for the big screen, he swooped in, pulled the woman onto his board, and guided her safely back to shore.
But wait, there’s more! Because no heroic act is complete without a little social media flair, Bruno recorded the entire rescue on his GoPro. Naturally, the internet went wild, calling him everything from “The Kiteboarder Knight” to “Baywatch Brasil.”
When asked about his heroic feat, Bruno humbly said, “I just did what anyone would do. Plus, it’s not every day you get to save someone and still look cool doing it.”
The rescued woman is reportedly doing fine, and Bruno? He’s riding the wave of fame while reminding us all that heroes don’t always wear capes. Sometimes, they just need a kiteboard and a GoPro.
Buddy’s pro tip: Next time you’re near water, make friends with a kite surfer. You never know when you’ll need saving with style!
