Teenage boy 'swept away' by sea

When I was 13 my best mate was washed over the railings at Scarborough during a school trip, it's only this last couple of years that I've even gone back there (I was on the same trip the week before!). I spent many years hoping that he'd been washed over to Holland and was living a new life and one day he'd just return - 'ta-dah'.

No such luck.

That RNLI video is shocking, even if they'd spotted him it'd be horrendous to get him on board either the helo or lifeboat.

Once more a warning to others who may think it's fun to do something stupid.
