It just doesn't bear thinking about!
The poor man, his family and everyone involved with this will have their lives affected by this incident.
Please everyone let your thoughts this evening be with them all..

That's a terrible thing to happen I wish him all the best for his recovery. I work with a chap who lost a leg in an accident and he walks with a slight limp. I had no idea until the subject came up one day after we had been working together for several months. Just shows that this sort of injury can be overcome in time.

Incident at Farnes on Staturday
Whilst at the Farnes yesterday, heard about a tragic accident the day before (Saturday) regarding a diver who had lost a leg and suffered major injuries to the other, I heard the dive boat Sovereign was involved. Some information was available on North East regional Teletext.

Speedy recovery to the diver involved.

Apologies if this thread is somewhere else (I couldn't find it)

This has already been mentioned on here, and a YDer knows the diver involved and has asked for no speculation before the facts are known (which is fair enough).

Very sad.
