Footnote. Eric Buchanan was released after spending six days in hospital. Two months after his accident he still has bad double vision, perforations in both ear drums (which are still discharging), and bad bruising on the right side of his chest and inner right arm. He remembers how lucky he was to escape with his life. Eric keeps his demolished face mask as a grim reminder of the worst underwater blast he's felt.
