An OnlyFans model having a nude photoshoot in a cave had to be saved by the coastguard after she becoming trapped by the tide. Michaela Ogilvie had stripped off in Ramsgate to take pictures for her social media account - before realising that the waves had blocked the cavern's entranceway.
The panicked model immediately called 999, with a lifeboat crews able to track down and rescue her within half an hour, Wales Online reports.
Recounting the terrifying ordeal, Michaela said: "When I saw the tide coming in I thought 'how could I be so stupid?' I couldn't get out of the cove either way - the sea had come completely in. I looked at the cliffs, wondering if I could climb up. Then I looked back in the cave thinking 'if I stay in there it will fill up with water and I might drown.’"
Explaining how she ended up in the cove, Michaela said: "I thought it would be really cool to strip off in the cave. It took me a while to get undressed. I looked out at the sea and everything was so peaceful. I only managed four photos.
"There was no one around but I realised it's because nobody could get there. The waves were crashing, I’m a really good swimmer but I would have got chewed up."
Thankfully, Michaela was able to contact emergency services, who immediately dispatched a lifeboat crew to her location.
She said: If I didn’t know to ring 999 I wouldn’t be alive, because it took 27 minutes for the rescue team to get there. I’m so grateful to be alive, it’s crazy.
"The crew were amazing and so friendly. I have huge respect for them and I hope people can learn from my mistake."
The Ramsgate RNLI confirmed it was called to a person cut off by the tide inside one of the caves shortly before 2pm on Tuesday.
A spokesperson added: "Our inshore lifeboat managed to get close enough to get the casualty onboard and brought her back to the lifeboat station. We advise people to check our Facebook page to see the tide times before going out onto the beach."
