Lost At Sea: Survival Story Of Diving Instructor John Low | On The Red Dot | Full Episode

It was supposed to be a routine 2-hour boat ride from Mersing to Tioman for 60-year-old diving instructor John Low when a sudden storm capsizes his boat and sends John adrift in the South China Sea. Lost in the middle of the sea over four days with only a life buoy keeping him from a watery grave, John discovers that the spark of life is bigger and wider than what is within, and the love and strength to keep him alive will come when and where we least expect it.

Usually when people are lost out at sea, they see lots of these big tankers going by, sometimes very close, but usually there's no one looking out, or looking hard enough so that they see a little human in the waves. So the look-out here should be commended for spotting this needle in a haystack

[@sheryl3761]

Thank you Captain Cor Plugge 🙏 You're a real hero. Bless you..

[@june03js]

[@CNAInsider]

We couldn’t agree more.

[@agdorongemaildotcom9244]

Hi Uncle John, i love you ❤️; im going to tell my students your inspirational story; see you at sea soon!

[@chonlakarno.2471]

Amazing story...glad that you endured it till the end. 👍

[@Xtremegamer71]

Shouldn't the captain stay behind with the boat?

[@SabrinskySoIntense]

this was great

[@2100BLF]

Even if you are in Singapore seas, it's always best to just get a PLB, also make sure it gets strapped to you at all times. Just Spend the ~ S$400 and be done with it....it will be so much easier for the SAR services regardless of country or available resource. It's almost mandatory for almost all outdoor activities if you really value your life due to Murphy's law.

[@jrukawa11]

went abroad, and still have the expectations like they are in Singapore

[@aceace9397]
