A UK vlogger’s rant about an Indian cop backfired after desi social media users pointed out that the policeman was trying to help him be safe. In a video shared by the foreigner, a policeman is seen asking him to vacate a beach, adding that only fishermen are allowed to go near the waters.
“Policeman confuses me on South Indian beach,” content creator Jack Aynsley wrote as he posted the video. In the clip, he roams on a beach with red flags placed near the waters.

A fourth commented, “You are crossing your limit by not listening to the police. Only fishermen allowed, don't you understand?” A fifth joined, “Bro… that red flag indicates high alert. (Not all days) Visiting beaches on those days is prohibited for your safety. These time waves are totally unpredictable. Hats off to the policeman.”
