Just another day in Belgium where tourists become the real heroes—who needs a lifeguard when you’ve got someone from Paris and a backpacker from Berlin saving the day? 😂 But of course, the locals were probably busy discussing the weather instead. Cheers to our foreign friends for keeping the drama alive! 🍻
