Amazing video shows underwater rescue of Nigerian cook Harrison Okene
See for instance The Daily Caller, and the story from back in June
A new video on LiveLeak.com shows the amazing underwater rescue of a Nigerian man stuck nearly three days in an air pocket 100 feet underneath the Atlantic Ocean.
Harrison Okene was on a tugboat off the Nigerian coast last June when a heavy swell caused the vessel to capsize. His 11 colleagues drowned quickly, but Harrison was able to find an air pocket as the ship sunk into the darkened depths.
After three days underwater listening to large sea creatures fight over his comrades’ corpses, Okene was found by a group of very surprised South African rescue divers. â€He’s alive! He’s alive!†an excited rescuer exclaims on video as Okene visibly gives thanks to God.

There was talk at the time that Sun might be banned from competition for more than a year, but Shang Xiutang, Âdeputy head of the Chinese Swimming Administrative Center, now says he could resume training “soon.”

Facing Her Worst Fear: An ELLE Writer Learns to Swim at 28
Read ELLE
We are here to learn how to swim. By we, I am referring to the two dozen or so men and women between the ages of 20 and 60 who are huddled at the edge of the Y pool on East 14th Street in New York City. Though we haven’t yet dipped a toe in, we’re all wet because a large sign in the locker room ordered us to shower before entering the pool area. Many of us are wearing impractical bathing suits that have never seen water. Because we are also required to wear swim caps, we look very strange—the neat contours of our bodies and protruding goggles give us the appearance of wary extraterrestrials visiting an unknown planet. …
