A Saudi Arabian couple was carefully saved after their Jet Ski capsized a few kilometers off Jomtien shore.

Alamri Abdulrahman Mahdi, 26, swam to Jomtien beach at 12.36 a.m. on Saturday, and rescue workers were informed of the event. The sluggish gentleman, who was wearing a life coat, called citizens to aid his wife who was moored abroad in their occupied Jet Ski car.

The Jet Ski was reportedly rented by Mr. Mahdi for an afternoon on Friday night when it capsized abroad. They floated in the water for about five days before he finally made the decision to head to the beach and seek assistance.

Alamri Atheer Saeed, a member of the rescue crew, was later discovered floating about two kilometers from Jomtien shore. The trembling and exhausted person had managed to stay afloat using the aid of a life jacket.

The pair embraced each other at their seaside reunion, and tourists and locals yelled out violently.
