Requirement
4. Save somebody without becoming a casualty
Required
Four situations, and the words "without putting yourself in danger" are the requirement rather than a caution attached to it.
Notes and warnings
Warning. The words "without putting yourself in danger" are the requirement, not a caution attached to it. A rescue that makes a second casualty has not met requirement 4, whatever else it achieved.
