The boat settled on the ocean floor 30 metres below.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The South African dive team, tasked with searching for bodies two days after the accident, captured the dramatic moment when one of the divers grabbed the hand of 29-year-old Harrison Okene \u2014 the ship\u2019s cook.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cHe\u2019s alive! He\u2019s alive,\u201d shouts one of the divers, in the video released this week, as they realized there was a survivor still on board.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Okene managed to survive for two days in an air pocket in the hull of the overturned ship, for 62 hours.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The space he survived in was a mere four feet high \u2014 a bathroom \u00a0in the front end of vessel, down the corridor from where he was when the tug first flipped over \u00a0\u2013 drinking Coca-Cola to stay hydrated.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cI was there in the water in total darkness just thinking it\u2019s the end.

I saw the first one, the second one, the third one just washed away. I knew these guys were dead.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cI could perceive the dead bodies of my crew were nearby. I could smell them. The fish came in and began eating the bodies. I could hear the sound. It was horror,\u201d he told <em>Reuters<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But on the afternoon of May 28, the sound he heard was the divers hammering on the boat. He said he swam to where he could make noise and eventually saw the light of one of the divers\u2019 torches.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Jed Chamberlain, commercial manager for DCN Global and the lead on the mission, told <em>BBC<\/em> it was the second diver that passed Okene that caught his hand.\u00a0Chamberlain explained Okene had missed the hand of the first one.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cNeedless to say, the diver got quite a fright,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The divers that rescued Okene had to work carefully to bring him back to the surface. While they quickly suited him up in dive gear \u2014 Chamberlain said the divers had to teach him how to use it \u2014 Okene had to spend two and a half days in a hyperbaric chamber before he could step out into the fresh air on the rescue ship\u2019s deck.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-photo article-photo-inline photoCaptionWrapper\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<div data-picture=\"\" data-class=\"story-img\" data-alt=\" Harrison Okene sits outside a decompression chamber after being rescued from a capsized tugboat, off the coast of Nigeria, in May.
