00:00As part of the intramurals at Apuyo National High School in Alfonso Castaneda, Nueva Vizcaya,
00:09teachers and students gathered to cross the river where the game will take place.
00:22They passed through the hanging bridge.
00:26But this is what happened the next day.
00:37The 38 students fell from 10 meters high and were swept away by the river.
00:50I was shocked. There were a lot of kids in the water.
00:54Parents, do you know the route of your children's school activities?
01:04Is there also a hanging bridge in your area?
01:07To those who are watching, can you please check?
01:12Because it seems that the hanging bridges are often cut off.
01:17Rhea, who happened to be washing sandals in the river,
01:22passed through the hanging bridge.
01:24There were a lot of students in the hanging bridge.
01:31I was shocked. There were a lot of kids in the water.
01:35The kids fell. The water was really strong.
01:38But Rhea was almost drowned in fear when she encountered her daughter, Christine,
01:48so her mother immediately called for help.
01:54The first person I held was not my daughter.
01:58But my son.
02:04My son was drowned. I held him in my arms.
02:09But because of the strong water, I was able to let him go.
02:13The students were watching in the middle of the night.
02:17The first student I saw was already outside.
02:23I quickly went to the other side of the road.
02:26When I saw my son outside, I jumped.
02:30I didn't think about whether I would hit him or not.
02:37I didn't think about what would happen to me as long as I could hold my son.
02:41Christine was hit in the head.
02:44She was also hit in the lower part of the head, breast, neck, and knee.
02:50This is her wound, ma'am.
02:52She was hit here and there in the head.
02:57This is where her knee touched the metal.
03:00She was bleeding.
03:03She really needed to be taken to a CT scan.
03:05The doctor said that there was only blood outside.
03:09But what was the reason for the hanging bridge?
03:13It was cut off.
03:17When we were about to cross the bridge, no one stopped us.
03:21There were only 5 students crossing the bridge.
03:24All of the students were directing them.
03:27I heard my classmates crying and asking for help.
03:32I forced myself to get up to help them.
03:39Next.
03:43According to Alfonso Castaneda Nueva Vizcaya,
03:47suddenly,
03:50he gave
03:54the 38 students
03:57who fell from 10 meters above
04:01and were watched by a roaring river.
04:04Ma'am.
04:07One of the students who fell from the river
04:11was a grade 11 student named Riza.
04:14She was told that she would be lucky
04:17because she was hit in the hand and in the shoulder.
04:21There was no fracture.
04:23The ultrasound was also negative.
04:25I felt dizzy and the pain in my shoulder.
04:29Until now, I still feel fear and trauma
04:33because of what happened.
04:35I dream about it every night.
04:38I heard my classmates crying and asking for help.
04:43I forced myself to get up to help them.
04:55Ma'am!
04:56Ma'am!
04:57Ma'am!
04:58According to the PNP or the Philippine National Police,
05:0234 of the 38 injured students
05:06were taken to the Rural Health Unit by Alfonso Castaneda.
05:10Only four were taken to the hospital.
05:12The other three were just under observation.
05:15The rest were minor injuries.
05:18While four of them had to be taken to the nearest hospital
05:22which is two hours away from Tulay.
05:25Marjun, a grade 7 student, was injured in his arm.
05:30When he fell, he bent his arm.
05:33There was another fall.
05:34Because he cracked his bone,
05:37his arm had to be cemented.
05:39The cement was okay.
05:42The 14-year-old, John Rel, was the most victimized.
05:47Aside from the scratches on his arm,
05:50he also had a bruise on his chin.
05:53Then he fell on a big rock.
05:57I saw the ultrasound.
05:59There were holes.
06:01I couldn't see clearly.
06:03I couldn't accept it.
06:04I didn't know that this would happen to him.
06:07That's why he had to go under a splenectomy
06:11to remove the protruding skin or spleen inside his chin.
06:16It can be removed, but it's very high risk.
06:18If we remove it, there's a risk of bleeding,
06:21there's a risk of infection.
06:22When I think about the spleen that's missing,
06:25it's a big loss to my son's activity.
06:31He needs to rest for a long time.
06:34Seven days after the surgery, John Rel was able to go home.
06:38At least he was able to stand.
06:40He was able to move by himself.
06:43The LGO paid for the doctor's fee and other expenses.
06:47But what's the reason why the hanging bridge was cut?
06:55The Jogan Hanging Bridge was built in 2015.
06:59It was built on the site of Melina and Jogan.
07:03It was made of steel cables and matting that is 50 meters long.
07:08If the hanging bridge is not built now,
07:10we don't know where we will go, especially if the water level is high.
07:14What can we do to fix it so that the children won't cross the river?
07:19Rhea also noticed some people crossing the bridge.
07:22Some students were still moving the hanging bridge.
07:27Some students were telling them not to move because they were scared.
07:32Some of them were still falling backwards.
07:35That's when the hanging bridge started to fall.
07:39Hey!
07:42According to the investigation, the hanging bridge was overloaded.
07:46That's why it fell.
07:47The hanging bridge only has a capacity of 5 people.
07:52Meanwhile, the students who crossed the bridge,
07:55there were almost 40 of them.
07:59Oh my!
08:00When we were about to cross the bridge,
08:02it stopped.
08:03There were only 5 people crossing the bridge.
08:06All of the students were going straight.
08:09I don't know whose negligence it was.
08:12That's what the teachers are lacking.
08:15They didn't stop the children from crossing the bridge.
08:19Hey!
08:21No one really wants an accident to happen.
08:25But whose responsibility is this?
08:28The biggest obligation and accountability
08:31is the school and the teachers.
08:33Their obligation is to make sure
08:35that all of the children crossing the bridge are safe and protected.
08:39Well, we did everything with all the precautions,
08:42advices, and we told them everything.
08:46Before they left, we made a line here.
08:49The teachers told them what they should do and avoid.
08:54They told them not to cross the bridge at the same time.
08:57That's why the children behaved that way.
09:01An entity that can be accountable for this
09:05is the local government unit,
09:07especially under the law,
09:09also under our civil code,
09:11that if there's a problem with public thoroughfares,
09:14roads, and bridges,
09:16and an accident happens,
09:18people get sick,
09:20our local government units have a responsibility and accountability.
09:25Actually, it happened right after the incident.
09:28I went to our municipal engineering office
09:30to assess what happened to the bridge.
09:33The old bridge will be removed.
09:35We will build a new bridge
09:37to make sure that the bridge will be strong.
09:41The LGU answered all of the victims' medical bills.
09:45So that what happened to us won't happen again,
09:48I hope the bridge will be fixed.
09:51In the middle of any game or bullying in schools,
09:56happiness and salvation should be shared.
10:00It should not be divided.
10:08Thank you for watching, Kapuso!
