South Korea ferry: Footage of passengers moments before ship sinks

Amateur footage has emerged of the passengers inside the South Korean ferry being told to stay put moments before it capsized. A crew member can he heard saying on loudspeaker: "Do not move from where you are now. Don't move because it's more dangerous if you move." Witnesses say this announcement may have cost some 300 people their lives. The vessel capsized on Tuesday prompting a search for hundreds of people, most of them teenagers on a school trip. Nine people have been found dead and 287 are still missing. Report by Sarah Kerr.
