Never said it was a valiant effort. According to testimony, he swam 500 meters (or might have been 500 feet, I don't recall, but either way doing that after a car wreck is pretty daunting), and went to his hotel room. He didn't call anyone. He already had a room. Literally no interaction.

I'm not defending him. I've already called him stupid. In the 40 years since the incident, though, one would think there was much more to him than this incident (which there is).
