    My mom was working in Fairfax Hospital near by then and heard about the crash through this transmission they gave to the helicopter before the news did…

    i have to agree jumping in to help that woman was great courage, i would have done the same, if everyone in the world was that courageous and we all got along, what a wonderful world we would have where everyone helped each other.

    true, but the water on the night titanic sank was even colder. it was below freezing.

  4. SkinsCrazy says:

    that’s incredible

  5. lightning116 says:

    Wow. Jumping into freezing water to save another human being knowing full well that you’re minutes away from dying due to the cold.

    That takes a lot of guts to do something like that, but kudos to that Lenny guy for saving that woman’s life.

  6. FaliciaB says:

  20. sideslide23 says:

    Very cold water this is just as worse as Titanic.

  21. rabbitnuts666 says:

    A crappy/idiotic pilot caused the accident, an amazingly good one did the best he could to rescue them. Amazing.

    dont believe you

  23. Zvyagel says:

    Life vests were dropped, then a flotation ball. Arland D. Williams Jr passed them to the others. On two occasions, the crew recalled last night, he handed away a life line from the hovering machine that could have dragged him to safety. then dragged three more persons across the ice to safety. Then the life line saved a woman who was trying to swim away from the sinking wreckage, and the helicopter pilot, Donald W. Usher, returned to the scene, but the man was gone.

  24. Zvyagel says:

    The passenger who had survived the crash and had repeatedly given up the rescue lines to other survivors before drowning was later identified as a 46-year-old bank examiner from the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, Arland D. Williams Jr. The coroner determined that Williams was the only passenger recovered from the river whose body revealed that he had died from drowning rather than impact injuries suffered in the crash.

  25. 91Brittany1 says:

    my teacher made us read the man in the water story and it said that someone in the water kept handing the rope off to the people but they went back for him and he was gone. i dont know who to beleave.
