- The only ones: Escaping near death | sole survivors
What does it feel like to be the only person to survive a plane crash, a boat wreck or an ambush? Sole survivors tell their storiesIn February 2009, 24-year-old Nick Schuyler went fishing with three friends in the Gulf of Mexico. An attempt to salvage a stuck anchor capsized the boat, and the four men were forced to cling to the hull to survive. When rescuers found the upturned boat after 43 hours (see picture, above), he was the only one still alive.It was going to be our last fishing trip. I knew Marquis [Cooper] and Corey [Smith] from the gym – I was their personal trainer and we'd become good friends – but the following week Marquis was moving away.

'We're not going to lose another anchor,' we said to ourselves. So we decided to floor the engine and see what happened – the line would either snap or become loose. In fact, the line got really tight, and then the back of the boat shot down and the boat flipped over. The four of us were thrown in.The water was so cold, we were in complete shock. Our first thought was to try to flip the boat back over. We were as strong as oxes, but in rough se それは何のような唯一の飛行機事故で生き残ることを感じるか、ボートの残骸や待ち伏せ？唯一の被爆者がstoriesIn 2月は2009年、24歳のニックシュイラーメキシコ湾での3人の友人と一緒に釣りに行った教えてください
