What is called in English?

Wow... I guess we have to say that it has quite a few names!!!
There �s no right or wrong... if you google it, you �ll see that all the choices go for that.
I confess that I �ve only seen two, I mean in movies, life buoy and life saver, but probably in other regions they use the others.
Regards, everyone

From a Canadian point of view -- just north of the lifeguard. I �d also use "life preserver"

Life saver used to be more common until they made a candy that looked like one and called it "lifesavers" (very common in the USA)--now most poeple use life preserver. |
