As the contact struggled to release himself, his girlfriend who was also on the motorcycle, made three separate attempts to release the seat belt and was finally successful on the third attempt. As his girlfriend was able to pull him from out of the water, the contact was blue and unresponsive after being underwater for nearly 5 minutes.
