The guy that got washed under the rig when I did and I were actually laughing and joking about the antics of some of the rail rats on the rig trying to help us... Ring bouys were raining down like hail. They were all trying, but there was just so much they could do, so we laughed as opposed to crying
Most of the people responded in great fashion, including and maybe most of all the crane operator that was in bed when this happened, he heard the commotion, and saw that the on tour crane op was stuck in his crane, so Chris ran out of the living quarters in his pjs and house slippers across the rig, into the port crane, no hard hat, no steel toe boots, no safety glasses, and put the port crane out to port Towards us and was lowering the ball into the water to give us something to hold onto...
