Default Kangaroo Rescue at Kirra beach on the Gold Coast

Did anyone happen to see today tonight last night where a kangaroo just 'hopped' into the surf and got stuck in a rip only to get rescued by a local surfer. All captured on video, i couldnt find the footage anywhere though.

Yeah the guy who saved the Roo seemed like a bit of a character as well. He did a good job.
