[MICHELE] NORRIS: So when you described this, the wall came down, and you said your boy just zoom.<\/p>\n
Mr. [REGINALD] EPPES: Yes. When…<\/p>\n
NORRIS: Just was pulled out of the opening created by the wall. What happened?<\/p>\n
Mr. EPPES: It was like somebody just had a slingshot on him, a rope or a rubber band and had traction on that rubber band and pulled him away. It was just that quick. And you could see nothing. You just feel I got – I think I got hit by the washing machine because that’s what I could see beside me because I got fractured ribs and a deflated lung from it….
[Later] We – when I got on the ambulance and came in to the hospital, my wife, she went back out and surveyed the place. And there’s nothing on the -there’s nothing on our concrete. There’s nothing.<\/p>\n
NORRIS: Just a concrete slab.<\/p>\n
Mr. EPPES: Just a concrete slab, you know, and then, I tell you, I’ll tell you this. I felt really bad for a lot of people who lost lives. I have my son, and I lost all my material stuff, all that’s gone. But, dude, I feel great, you know, with my kids and my wife are still here. And I do know that my wife I nor I would have lost any of our faith behind the incident if we lost any of our children.<\/b><\/p>\n
