Yes, it is a bit shocking to realise that you jumped in and saved someone. I had a similar experience in France (drunk guy pulled out of the water, not breathing), but I just froze. I helped the lifeguard (a group of us were staying in his place that evening). He was having trouble getting the oxygen to work and then had to call for a helicopter. I don't remember much (about 9 years ago, now) except feeling a bit useless. The guy survived in the end, thankfully. Anyway, be proud of yourself. Talk soon, Andrew Well done Bernard,
