A mobile phone video shot by 17-year-old Park Su-hyeon on board Sewol reveals the scene on the ferry as it started to list.
Just moments before this there students were all still enjoying themselves on their excursion trip to Jeju... A very tragic event indeed...
The Captain should be held full responsible for this. My understand is should any ship meet with similar accident, Captain (or the next highest ranking officer) should stay on board and coordinate the safe evacuation of the passengers. Only until the last passengers he can account for is safe only should he board the safety boat or rescue himself... Sadly this is not the case for SEWOL...
