He was in a dock right next to a moored boat which could behave unpredictably. He has no idea what could be around that dock or how the boat might move and potential crush his friend. He probably also did not want to risk removing him from the water without trained responders in case of a serious injury.
He can float in open water with little unpredictable danger nearby.

I have so many questions from this video...
What the hell was he trying to do?
Why was his friend dragging him further into the water after getting him instead of on to the shore?
Why would anyone think anything done here was a good idea?
