Dam that’s sad
Rest in peace
Poor kid, I really hoped he would survive.
Damn, I had no idea his condition was still so serious š
Damn thatās awful! I rmb reading on the news everyday that he was fighting for his life. This fucking sucks
Poor kid. So sorry for him and his family. I’d been hoping for a miracle for him when I heard what his condition was.
Man I was hoping that since his friends acted quickly that he might survive. Poor family. RIP
Poor Kid š
RIP
So sad. Poor little fella.
So sad to lose your child just having fun in the school holidays.
They had been reporting the last few days that he had lost brain activity.
This is so sad. That poor boy.
RIP.
Oh baby. This is so tragic.
Iām āgladā he was able to pass surrounded by his family and warm in a bed. The alternative of dying in such a tragic chaotic situation is worse.
That is so sad, I feel for his family but also his mates who tried to save him.
Rest in peace, young man.
Thinking of his family and friends today who must be completely devastated by all this.
Amazing effort by his friend and the paramedics to try and save his life. Such a sad end.
This is so sad.
Just tragic. RIP little one š
I love jumping off that rock Nico. Catch you on the flipside brotherĀ
Absolutely tragic.
Yeah that’s pretty fucked. I cannot even imagine what family and friends are going through and what they’d have to endure forever.
Horrible.
Damn, thatās really sad. Poor bloody kid.
Terribly sad. His poor family.
heart breaking to hear.
An absolute tragedy. Just a Sydney kid doing Sydney kid things. Youāre not supposed to die like that.
Awww fuck that’s so shit.
RIP little guy. Thoughts are with your family. Hope they are doing as best as can be expected. xo
To Nicoās parents if you ever see this, I am so sorry for your loss.
To the parents of his mate that jumped in to save him, if you ever see this pls take the gratitude and respect of the entire country for raising such a brave and selfless young man.
Unfortunately everyone loses here.
Life can be so unfair.
RIP Nico.
Oh man, I was hoping this wouldn’t happen. RIP buddy.
his mates are troopers
Such a tragedy. RIP little dude.
I still can’t believe how brave his mates were jumping in and pulling him out, and i hope they don’t ever feel like they didn’t do enough.
This shit hits so hard when you have young kids of your own.
I feel like an absolute karen but i don’t want them swimming in rivers or the ocean ever again š
This is very sad. I feel for his parentsā¦ RIP little one.
