Mark Law: helicopter pilot who rescued White Island victims on his new book Lucky You're Tough

Former NZSAS soldier Mark Law became a national hero on December 9 2019, following the Whakaari-White Island eruption. After learning of the eruption, Mark, alongside his colleagues, flew to the island, comforted the injured and flew 12 stranded survivors home. Mark's actions ultimately saved lives, and he was awarded New Zealand's second highest bravery honour, the Bravery Star, for his actions - however his company, Kahu NZ, was charged and fined by WorkSafe for past tours on the island. He wrote about the experience in his new memoir - Lucky You're Tough.  "The rest of the recovery, the rest of the day are pretty clear, so I've been able to recall that easily."  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
