A dramatic incident occurred on the German shore of Lake Constance off Überlingen on Wednesday: A 71-year-old diver developed serious health problems after around 30 minutes underwater when he surfaced, meaning that he was no longer able to reach the shore on his own.
Two other divers who happened to be present reacted with lightning speed, brought the man to shore and provided first aid until the rescue team provided the 71-year-old with oxygen and then took him to hospital. Nothing is yet known about the rescued man's medical condition.
