Just got the chance to watch the documentary on this last night. Dreadful business. I knew a guy who was killed on there too, and he actually got a mention in the programme. Lovely fella too.
God Bless those who went through it. The thought of leaping 175 feet into darkness just on the off-chance you will hit water is truly daunting. I suppose when the alternative is being burned it makes that choice a bit easier, but even so.
For those who didn't catch it I would recommend seeing it on iPlayer. Harrowing but worth watching IMHO.
