On Wednesday evening, a woman in Taitung attempted suicide, plunging herself into the ocean while drunk. Fortunately, she was pulled up by a man taking a walk by the beach, and three students. The first rescuer was later identified as a talent scout for the MLB’s Kansas City Royals.
The woman in a lilac shirt sitting on the beach is being comforted by rescuers. Earlier, she’d attempted to drown herself in the ocean.

Attending
Have you had a vaccine, you know, the kind for injuries, the tetanus vaccine within the past five years? Just letting you know that if you think you may need to, go to Taitung Hospital’s ER.
Paramedics help clean the cuts that the man had sustained on his right knee and toes. He got them while pulling the woman out of the ocean.
- Lots of students helped.
- Yes, also that one, and some highschoolers.
Nathan D. Miller
MLB scout
I was just taking a walk. I saw the woman, when I saw her, it was like she just wanted to have some fun. But she couldn’t return. I saw her go like, bam, bam, bam, bam into the ocean, so I tried to help her.
This man is Nathan Miller, a talent scout for the MLB’s Kansas City Royals living in Taoyuan. On Wednesday evening, he had just watched a baseball match and was taking a walk on the beach. It was then when he saw the woman, apparently drunk, plunge into the ocean. He them rushed over to pull her ashore, together with three other students soon after. What’s more surprising is that Miller can’t really swim.
- I didn’t know if she attempted to take her own life.
- Were you scared, jumping right in?
- A little, of course. I have two kids. I kept thinking about my daughter. She’s only 10. So I knew I had to save her but also be careful.
Witnesses praised him for his good deed and asked for pictures. The celebrity treatment was not expected by Miller, who only wanted to help save a life. And he did.
