The attack happened between 17:20 and 17:45 GMT, while Ms Smith's three dogs were "playing, splashing about, paddling in the water".

The Venezuelan kayaker had been paddling through the Strait of Magellan, off Chile's Patagonian coast, with his father when he felt something "hit me from behind, closing in on me and sinking me".

Gone was the wall that held Rogers’ Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity paddles.

He helped retrieve three stranded cars - paddling to one and walking to the others wearing his wellies.

About 20 minutes later, a rescue boat found a kayak, paddles and waders.
