İbrahim Işık up from 7 meters down, looking worse for 
wear. 

The miraculous rescue occurred at Çanakkale.  The day before
yesterday, fishermen on the city pier noticed İbrahim Işık (41)
floundering in the water and in a moment the fishermen lost
sight of Işık.

Police divers arrived at the scene and found Işık 7 meters below
the water surface after a 15 minute search.  Işık was brought to
a nearby hospital and (somehow!) revived.  Nevertheless, Işık
remains in serious condition in the hospital's intensive care unit.


   Rubbernecking delay on the nearby ferry.

Passengers on a ferryboat watched the rescue drama moment by
moment.
