Three teens heading to the beach at Port Bruce, ON., took a shortcut through the grounds of the local power plant. But their four-wheel-drive vehicle slid down an embankment, ended up in the nuke plant's water discharge canal, and was swept away in the water.

“It was real warm, like, you know, a hot tub,” Joe Deummy, 17, said later. The vehicle ended up plugging a pipe a half kilometre away, but all three were able to swim to safety. “I took a swimming class last semester in high school, and I was saying, ‘Thank you, thank you, thank you' to my swimming coach all the way to the edge,” Svane said.
