美國加州發生一起船隻在大海中翻覆的意外,船上僅有一名13歲少年獲救,原來這名少年的父親在慌亂之中讓他躲進保冷箱中,成為他保命的關鍵工具,少年獨自一人在海中漂流一天後順利被尋獲。
根據《美國廣播公司》(ABC News)等美媒報導,這名13歲少年朱拉迪(Juladi “Jude” Khammoungkhoune)2日晚間和幾名親戚,乘船到博德加灣(Bodega Bay)附近捕蟹,不過船隻因為大浪翻覆,導致船上6人全數落海。

根據朱拉迪的說法,當時船上有爸爸巴頌(Prasong)和叔叔等家人,當下巴頌見到船隻即將翻覆,即使身上穿了救生衣,巴頌仍要求朱拉迪趕緊躲入保冷箱中,巴頌原先緊緊抓住保冷箱,後來選擇放手,讓躲在保冷內的兒子能飄到更遠的地方獲救。

朱拉迪回憶,當下看著父親逐漸消失是件很可怕的事情,當時他不斷哭喊,希望能再次聽到巴頌的聲音,但都沒有回應,朱拉迪就獨自一人隨著保冷箱漂流在大海上,直到隔天上午被搜救人員發現。
當朱拉迪在海上漂流時,一直祈盼能活著見到所有家人,然而事後得知自己是唯一的生還者,而美國海岸防衛隊連日進行搜尋,最後僅發現朱拉迪17歲表哥的遺體,朱拉迪目前已回到家人身邊,親友為罹難者設立募款活動,上線以來已成功募得5萬7558美元,折合心台幣約187萬元的善款。
