Along with the video, Christensen posted a lengthy disclaimer to ease any concerns regarding the well-being of his child. In part, Christensen wrote:
“Just so everyone knows, I am a registered nurse and my wife was a life guard for six years and taught swimming for three. not only are we both professionally trained in CPR and water safety I am certified in advanced pediatric life support. the child in the video (Elizabeth) has been trained properly by ISR certified instructors.”
He also makes sure to mention that they didn’t, at any point, ever force the child to do something she didn’t want to do.
