A man ends up with five other passengers of a crashed plane in the Potomac River. He continues to send the lifeline and flotation ring to the other passengers who are then carried up into a helicopter. The man gives up his life to these people when the helicopter carries the last passenger with no room for others. He drowns in the cold waters, leaving a huge emotional impact with the story.
