Though they lived to tell the story it wasn’t without a long-lasting trauma. For years they harbored a terrible fear of water that prevented them from entering any body of water larger than a hotel jacuzzi.

The migrants set off from beaches south of Ceuta and have been detained after entering the tiny Spanish territory.
