... I guess spending one night in the woods isn't as extreme as I thought... 😔 😂

[MrCaptainmorgan]

I can't even imagine the relief he must of felt when he saw the diver. I'm glad this dude survived. Truly amazing

[AwesomeJaneUniverse]

Being in that situation, pitch black, cold, hungry, and not knowing you'd be rescued in time sounds so terrifying

[Chronic]

The scariest part is he heard large fish swimming around the ship in complete darkness, eating corpses

[pietroalessandrini]

The idea that in complete darkness he decided to leave his first location to find a bigger air pocket is mind blowing. Probably one of the most corageous things I've ever heard

[NebMunb]

I can't even imagine how he felt when he realized he was going home. Amazing.

[noahlani]

Imagine retrieving dead bodies, and one of them grabs you

[SVNsoldier]

In an interview he describes being able to hear his colleagues shouting and talking to each other as they were trapped in various other small air bubbles throughout the ship. One by one he heard them gargle and go silent over the course of those 3

Unsaid in this video is the fact that Okene, though terrified due to his ordeal, overcame said fear and became a certified commercial diver. The best part? The diver who rescued him was the one who handed him his diploma. To have the courage to even go back to such waters...what a brave man.

I can't even imagine how unfathomably horrifying this would be. This guy is incredible.

Man goes through one of the most traumatic experience in his life.

“Probably black magic.”

Bro was just chilling at the bottom of the ocean on a mattress for 3 days, crazy

[Den.m]

I dont think he wanted the trophy, I think he wanted life.

Hi everyone,

Just want to give everyone an update on Harrison! He recently just completed his commercial diving training at Jacks Dive Chest.

Best bit - he was given his certs from Nico Van Heerden, the diver who rescued him.

Poor guy, he just wanted to take a dump.

[sophia-klxs]

i wanted to skip this but then my brain was like,

“dude, you gotta know.”

[Schizosepsis]

I feel bad for the guy, this ordeal has scarred him for life. A miracle he is still alive.

[InItcat]

No. No way. I wouldn’t have survived. The mental anguish of being trapped like that would absolutely do me in. What an amazing story.

[MrPhsyco]

Imagine if your in a sunken ship and a hand grabs you out of nowhere

[chrisscott]

His story is inspiring. The resilience, the strength.
