Fine Art Prints From Memory Lane
Children at play on Bridlington sands are thrilld at the sight of the RAF helicopter
Children at play on Bridlington sands are thrilld at the sight of the RAF helicopter swooping over the beach, and a man is swiftly lowered to the beach. They little realise that what they are seeing is a practise for a rescue which might save one of their lives. This is a rare sight, for rescue helicopters do not normally land survivors on the beach except in emergency. July 1960 P012688

EDITORS COMMENTS
Captivated by the unexpected thrill, children at play on Bridlington sands are filled with excitement as they witness the majestic RAF helicopter swooping over the beach. Their innocent delight is unaware of the true purpose behind this spectacle - a practice rescue mission that could potentially save a life. Little do they know, this rare sight reveals an extraordinary glimpse into the world of emergency response. In July 1960, amidst the vibrant atmosphere of a sunny summer's day, these youngsters find themselves unwitting spectators to an essential training exercise. As their eyes follow every twist and turn of the aircraft above them, they remain oblivious to its critical role in safeguarding lives along their beloved coastline. The swift descent of a man from above captures their attention even further. Unbeknownst to them, he represents hope and salvation for those who may one day face perilous situations at sea. This demonstration serves as a reminder that rescue helicopters rarely touch down on sandy shores unless faced with dire emergencies. This photograph captured by Mirrorpix transports us back to an era where lifeguards and brave servicemen worked hand in hand to protect our communities. It immortalizes not only a moment frozen in time but also highlights the unwavering dedication and commitment displayed by those who risked everything for others' safety. Decades later, this image continues to evoke nostalgia while reminding us of humanity's enduring spirit in times of crisis.
