When Barry Douglas, 44, and Claire Vickers were seriously injured at Aldershot Lido early in the morning last year after sneaking in early in the morning, he made national news. The pair were left with broken legs and feet after sliding into a metal barrier at the bottom of a flume tube, and they had to wait two hours to be rescued. Mr Douglas, a young man who hails from Dundee, was discovered hanged at his studio apartment in Aldershot, Hampshire, less than six months later. Despite signs of recovery, Mr Douglas took his own life amid concerns that his injuries would leave him homeless.
