Can't quite tell - but that doesn't hold with what I read (I don't think). If he was alive and alert enough for him to get into the water with the swimmer, unless he was killed when the wave hit the basket - that would be a very sudden demise from other means. Also the swimmer tried to get back to him after his own injury - so it seems that he was still alive at that point. But, obviously, no way to tell for certain.
