A family is rescued from a plane crash by quick good Samaritans. They were sight seeing on a tour plane in the Caribbean. The planes engine gave out and it plunged into the water. They were strapped in and their plane was upside down. The fast thinking pilot freed the father, but he didn't see his wife and his son of 4-years-old. He dived back into the water and the pilot was already freeing his wife and with her last breath of consciousness she was freeing her son.  A near by boat witnessed the crash and they came to the families rescue. Two doctors were in a nearby boat and immediately gave aid.
