This website cycles through a series of videos. You will see a different scene depending on when you opened the link. For that reason, not all of the comments here refer the same particular incident. Even so, they all depict the common characteristics of someone drowning, followed by a lifeguard who quickly spots this and acts to save the child. Sometimes you can see the rescued child's face and the panic is obvious.
At first viewing, it is not always obvious why the lifeguard acted, but on repeat viewing the signs of drowning become very obvious: head persistently under the water, arms held out to the side, body rigid, jerky movements, and remaining in one spot rather than swimming about. Sometimes it is possible to mark them as being at risk before they get into difficulty.
Everybody should learn how recognize these symptoms.
