We live within 15mins of the Balanac river and I hadn't heard about this tragic accident. Don't think he lived locally or someone would have mentioned it to me.
Since the beginning of December it has rained every day, so the rivers are flowing faster than normal and even a strong swimmer would struggle with the current.

I think tragic for all concerned for sure, member or not.
But to jump into a swollen river for me even under such circumstances would be my last option. I know a lot of us think fast and on our feet, but a swollen brown swirling river is just asking for trouble. It's very sad.If you want your dreams to come true ...... first you have to wake up

Having just had a quick trawl through our archives, I cannot find anything to suggest this unfortunate man was ever registered with us. But, of course, it doesn't make what happened any the less tragic ... and I'm sure the heartfelt thoughts of all members who've read the article go out to his grieving family.
