Saved by the Jacket

After Alex Korkishko’s raft hit a rock, Alex’s 75-year-old father fell into a cold, rushing Alaskan river. It was up to Alex, his friend Bryan and son Max to come to the rescue, and fortunately, they were prepared.

“While my son was rescue swimming to our raft and Hen was still bobbing in the current, I finally caught up to my dad and got ahold of his life jacket. As Bryan was catching up to us in his raft, I was trying to keep my dad’s head above water, while looking for boulders to beach him on.”
