The Tokyo 2020 surfing gold medalist, Italo Ferreira, appeared in yet another rescue action, this Thursday, in a video posted on the athlete’s networks. After selling ten autographed surfboards to raise funds for the victims of the floods that hit Rio Grande do Sul since April 27th, the surfer joined Pedro Scooby and a team of volunteers to help remove a horse that was stuck on a slab.
