Teen Survives Tragic California Boat Accident by Hiding in Cooler

A 13-year-old boy is the sole survivor of a boating mishap that claimed the lives of his father and four others off the California coast.

Juladi 'Jude' Khammoungkhoune survived a capsized boat incident near Bodega Bay by taking refuge in a cooler.
The accident occurred on November 2 while the family was crabbing, resulting in the deaths of Jude's father and four other relatives.
Jude's father, Prasong, instructed him to get into the cooler, sacrificing his own life to ensure his son's safety.
Search efforts covered more than 2,100 square miles but were suspended after finding Jude's 17-year-old cousin's body.
A GoFundMe campaign has been set up to support Jude's family, surpassing its $50,000 goal.
