For the father to have gone back in, to refuse to leave his family, shows great love and bravery under the most terrible stress and fear.
As dustybin says it was noble and shows the measure of the man that he was able to think so clearly and beautifully in the moment. |

Is that right pa lapsy?
The electrics went and caused the windows to not function? I know that they'd not have been able to open the car doors until the car filled with water, but staying calm under those circumstances must be practically impossible unless you are trained, made infinitely worse by the fact it was seawater, dirty and cold. |

Just watched the interview with the man who saved the baby, so vividly and articulately discribing the tragedy. Heartbreaking indeed.

I lived there until last may and used to walk my dog on the beach beside the pier most days. Such a tragic thing to happen in such a lovely spot.
