‘If we had been a bit slower ... we wouldn’t be alive today’

AN IRISHMAN has spoken of how he, his daughter and her boyfriend were just seconds from death after an accident at the spectacular Iguazu Falls on the border between Brazil and Argentina left two US tourists dead.

Renowned artisan bread maker Declan Ryan, from Cork, said they are just glad to be alive.

“It was terrifying. We were extremely lucky,” he said.
