And we have an official statement from the DRF:
Kongehuset: Prins Christian var på intet tidspunkt i fare - Danmark | www.bt.dk
Lene Balleby says that the situation was not dramatic at all: "Prince Christian was in no danger at any time. The lifeguards must always be attentive and in this case they knew was in the water and (they) were perhaps extra attentive. They therefore did an extra check to see if Prince Christian was OK, which he was.
In other words: The situation was completely undramatic".
The article concludes that the reports that Christian was in (at least some) danger, was exaggerated.
And that the lifeguards did not know who he was is also not correct.
- That the lifeguards still do a most valuable job cannot be detracted IMO. Nor should it detract from anything if, repeat if, one of them intervened when it may not have been necessary.
Like I said in a previous post the sea take a number of tourists every year here in DK as well, so better safe than sorry.
Congratulations on your first post, HRHJAP.
And thanks for your account.
