Three days after two teenagers were rescued at Thorness on the Isle of Wight, Cowes RNLI were tasked to the same stretch of shoreline to another two teenagers in need of help.
The two boys were caught at the bottom of the cliff by the tide at around 8pm.
Fortunately, the Cowes lifeboat, which was already on a night-time exercise, was able to quickly respond to a request by HM Coastguard.
When the crew arrived on the scene they found two very muddy and cold teenagers.

They are taken by the lifeboat to Trinity Landing where they were met by Island
coastguard teams.
Needles, Bembridge and Ventnor Coastguard rescue teams and the Isle of Wight Ambulance Service were also sent by HM Coastguard.
One of the boys was taken to St Mary's Hospital for treatment by his mother.
The lifeboat returned to station at 8.45pm.
