When they saw their son struggling in the water, the family's trip to Camacari Beach in Joo Pessoa, in the state of Paraba, turned bad.
Felisberto Sampaio, a pastor in Brazil, and Inalda, his wife, have both died.
They drowned while trying to save their son Ian, who was 13 years old.
When they saw their son struggling in the water, the family's trip to Camacari Beach in Joo Pessoa, in the state of Paraba, turned bad.
The couple jumped into the ocean to try to save the teen, the Daily Mail UK said on Monday.
The parents couldn't get to their son in the river, which was sad.
Ian, however, was saved by local fishermen and a family member, who then went back for the boy's parents and pulled them into their boat.
Before they were declared dead at the scene of the accident, paramedics gave CPR to Filiberto, who was 43, and his wife, who was 42.
The report says that the event happened on Tuesday, January 10, 2023.
