Truly a sad situation...:to:

As the South Korean ferry Sewol began to sink on April 16, some of the 325 student passengers captured their final moments on video.

Television producer Choi Seung-ho called the video the "most heartbreaking scene I have seen in my 27-year broadcasting career,” before he introduced it on a website run by the Korea Center for Investigative Journalism, The New York Times reported.

“This looks like the end,” one boy says, according to the Times. Another tells his mom and dad that he loves them. A different student asks, “Are we becoming a Titanic?”





As the ship begins to tilt more and more, some students seem frightened, while others appear to be confused.

One student demands to get off the ship, while another nearby says, “This is fun."

At 8:53 a.m., local time, a voice on the ferry's intercom told all 443 passengers to stay put.

“What? Hurry! Save us!” a student shouts in response.

Later, someone can be heard asking what Captain Lee Joon-seok is up to, not knowing that the Sewol's leader would soon climb into the arms of orange-clad members of the South Korean coast guard. Another muses that the sinking ship will make news, while someone else nearby says, “This is going to be a lot of fun if we get it onto our Facebook.”

Despite growing fear, many students followed instructions to stay put. However, the captain and some crew members did not follow the same instructions, as they were among the first to flee the ship. So far, 210 people were confirmed dead, and another 92 are still missing.

Lee and 14 other crew members have been arrested and charged with abandoning passengers in an emergency, an that South Korean President Park Geun-hye said was "tantamount to murder."
