He confessed: "[A friend] flipped the boat.

“I dislocated my shoulders and I thought I was sinking. I thought I was going to die.

“I was seeing a lot of colours, I was thinking about my brother and my mum because I thought that was it. As I said before, I like feeling that my brother is looking after me. I like to think that he saved me.”
