Oh, what a time to be alive...
Swan floats are so0o0o two summers ago, but I suppose the two people the FDNY fished out of the East River yesterday afternoon never got the memo.
As reported by the FDNY on Instagram, "At 3:39 pm today, #FDNY Marine and land units responded to the East River and E 55 St, Manhattan for reports of multiple persons in the water. FDNY #Marine4 rescued two persons from the water after their inflatable swan pool float became overcome by a fast moving current and was met with heavy marine traffic. The two individuals were transported ashore onboard #Marine6 where they were evaluated by EMS.
FDNY urges New Yorkers to always take precautions when swimming or entering the water surrounding our city. Only enter the water where swimming is permitted and where lifeguards are on duty. See more #FDNYSmart tips for a safe summer at fdnysmart.org"
First of all, look at all of those seamlessly integrated hashtags. #Impressed.
Second, who the F wants to go bobbing about with all of the trash in the East River? It's toasty as hell outside and there are basically zero interesting pool options available, I get it - but let's not lose all of our senses here people!
