"Rip currents are powerful, fast-moving currents that flow away from the shore,
often occupying deep channels, and pose a significant hazard to swimmers. They
are responsible for an average of 21 drownings a year in Australia, which is
more deaths than bushfires, floods, cyclones and sharks combined.
Thousands of people get caught in rip currents each year around Australia.
Research has shown rips are more complex than previously thought and there is
no single piece of advice for escaping a rip that works for all conditions and
people. What you may have been taught to do as a kid may not actually be the
best advice.
This quiz will teach you how to spot a rip, what to do if you're caught in one
and to remind you to always swim between the red and yellow flags on patrolled
beaches. Good luck!"
