Uh, the guy hopped over here.

He's out of the water.

He's white.
02:41
He's in a green shirt, so I'm not sure if that's related or not.
02:45
Does he have an orange helmet?
02:48
Head four.
02:51
Also not sure as the original reporting party said that he was wearing an orange jumpsuit, but apparently the original reporting party was upset.
