Mermaid enthusiasts Elle Jimenez, Elaina Garcia and Great Chin Burger rescued a scuba diver who lost consciousness as he neared the water's surface in Catalina Island, California.
"This was my first time teaching the course in California," Jimenez told Fox News Digital.
Garcia, from Avalon, California, has a PADI certification in scuba diving and works as a firefighter — while Burger, who is from Sinajana, Guam, has a PADI certification in freediving safety.

Burger said she can’t help but cry every time she thinks about Avila’s frightening condition during the rescue — yet seeing him smile and laugh afterward makes her"heart so happy." The emergency responders on land credited Jimenez, Garcia and Burger’s quick action as the reason for Avila’s"revival" and"healthy recovery," Andersen told Fox News Digital.
