Title: You're a survivor
Post by: Liberator on January 08, 2014, 10:06:20 PM
On May 26 2013, 20 miles off the coast of Nigeria, the "Jascon 4" tug capsized with 12 people on board and sank 30 metres to the bottom of the sea.

Just under 3 days later a dive team was sent down to recover the bodies.

This footage was released in December from the helmet camera of one of the divers.

That's pretty amazing and it must have scared the be jayzus out of the diver when that hand came out of the gloom grasping at him!
