In 2020, Australian swimmer Rick Shearman used his Apple Watch’s Emergency SOS feature after being swept out to sea by a rip current. His call helped rescuers locate him and send a helicopter to his position. Apple later used the real emergency call in an advertisement, demonstrating the watch’s safety features through an actual rescue rather than a staged scenario.
