If you use Google translate from English "lifeguard" to Russian, you get Спасатель Doing the translation in the other direction, (so from Спасатель to English) you get first "rescuer" and as a second "lifesaver". Perhaps this has something to do with the lifeguards found away from water in e.g . Russia ? Something that is "lost in translation" ?
