What Luck




It's obvious the diver wasn't expecting to find anyone alive. Makes you wonder how many times capsized sailors survive for a few days before succumbing.

Best bit: the guy topside telling the diver to "keep him there." Just like a boss to ruin their plans of swimming off into the deep.

cool -- I'm surprised that he didn't die of hypothermia. The slowed metabolism probably helped with air situation though.
