A stranded scuba diver recorded what could have been his final thoughts on a GoPro after becoming stranded 30 nautical miles from the coast of Bundaberg, Queensland. The video started off on a pessimistic note, with Jacob noting that when the sun goes down, “they won’t do nothing.” “That’s a wrap on old Jakey”, he added. According to the ABC, he was rescued just after sunset on July 5, after more than six hours drifting alone. Credit: Jacob Childs
