both of the guys were really good mates of mine. sadly my mate daz died and daniel the one who you must have worked on the rigs with is in hospital, he is in a pretty bad way and might never walk again.
i heard the hole story from a firefighter that was on the scene and he said its the most horrific accident hes ever been to in 26 years

Thanks
He was driving a civic now was he? I dread to think If he would still be here if he was in anything smaller or less built
He was the 1st year apprentice on the rig and I was second, I was back to back with him but shifts crossed over quite a few times and always got a good crack with him then I left the rig in March for more training onshore but spoke to him on facebook
