It was against 16 clock, as calls for help over the Lech rang. The companions of the 27-year-olds, including his brother, had noticed that the young man had not appeared. "I am now over in the defense area," says Jürgen Wasserwachtler Grabler. He and his team made in the newly built power plant of the local Turbinenauslassbecken just a diving exercise.

Still in the wetsuit and diving equipment on his back Grabler went into the military sector to bring the young man from the maelstrom and to resuscitate him on the shore. A rescue helicopter from Kempten, who was traveling in the region, landed on a gravel bar on the defensive - all in vain. On site was a large contingent of emergency services, police and fire department. Several bathers on adjacent gravel banks were witnesses to the accident.

The TSG-defense has long been recognized as a danger point. The local threshold in the river does not fall off vertically, but is built like a ramp.
