Four people. Two were apparently dead, no reaction, no breathing. And the two others on the right side were living, but in severe condition. And the female passenger, the young lady, was on her knees on the floor of the Mercedes. She had her head down, she had difficulty to breathe, she needed quick assistance. It was a massive shock to learn that she was Princess Diana and that she died. And immediately after that, I checked with myself and I said 'did I do everything I could to save her? Did I do correctly my job?' And yes, I couldn't have done anything better."
