*Okene just before his rescue |
The recently released video taken by South African DCN Diving captured the intense rescue of the 29-year- old cook.
Harrison Okene, 29, was a chef on the Jascon 4, an oil company’s ship, when the boat capsized and sank 100 feet into the ocean off the coast of Nigeria in May due to heavy ocean swells, Reuters reported at the time.
“Three men were in front of me and suddenly water rushed in full force,” Okene told Reuters. “I saw the first one, the second one, the third one, just washed away. I knew these men were dead.”
