Another example not wearing the right gear (or any):

NANTUCKET — A fisherman who fell overboard from a clam dredge has died, despite a rescue attempt by a fellow crewman.
The Coast Guard said the man, whom they did not identify, wasn’t wearing a life jacket or survival suit when he fell into the 55 degree water at about 5 a.m. Saturday.
They said another crewman put on a survival suit and jumped in to try to save the victim.
But the men began drifting away from the 60-foot boat, which couldn’t reach them because it was disabled after a hose got tangled in a propeller.
A Coast Guard helicopter pulled the two men from the ocean, and brought them to a Nantucket hospital, but only the would-be rescuer survived.
