Gusts of wind and high waves: canoeist capsizes in the ice-cold Kochelsee. Rescuers pull hypothermic and exhausted man onto boat.
A Canadian drove himself to the shore. The 69-year-old was then taken to hospital. According to the Kochler police, foul play has been ruled out. There was also a sensational water rescue in Koc Helsee in September 2023. A married couple demonstrated moral courage. The man from Puchheim capsized a good 100 meters from the shore and was no longer able to get out.
