00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:02,880
Speaker 1: This is jam Nation with Jones.

2
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:07,640
Speaker 2: Peter Hughes was the man who's swollen and blistered face

3
00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:10,480
Speaker 2: we saw on television during the shocking first hours of

4
00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:13,360
Speaker 2: the news coverage from the Barley bombings in two thousand

5
00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:15,960
Speaker 2: and two. He took our breath away when we heard

6
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:18,520
Speaker 2: him quietly tell rescuers he was okay to help others

7
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:21,560
Speaker 2: worse off than him. Later, he lapsed into a month

8
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 2: long comer. He died three times while on life support.

9
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 2: Today marks twenty years since the attacks on Barley, and

10
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:31,479
Speaker 2: we're checking in with Peter. And it's extraordinary, Peter, to

11
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,760
Speaker 2: see you looking so wonderful. Hello, and how are you?

00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:38,600
Speaker 1: back in Bali.

15
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:41,200
Speaker 3: Obviously I haven't been back here for a few years

16
00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:44,720
Speaker 3: because of COVID, but yeah, feeling relaxed about it all.

17
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 2: How do you feel going back to BALLEI I think

18
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 2: it be tough.

19
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 1: I would have thought, No, I don't know.

20
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 3: I've been here many times before I think the bombs happened,

21
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 3: and many times after, so I don't know. It's a

22
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 3: holiday I come back to enjoy.

23
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 4: It's so great to talk to you. All these years later,

24
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,040
Speaker 4: and I interviewed you all those years ago, pretty much

25
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,800
Speaker 4: after it had happened, and you're so circumspect about it.

26
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 4: At the time when you were sitting on that hospital

27
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 4: gurney and people were interviewing it. It was a doctor

28
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,959
Speaker 4: back here that said that guy needs to be in

29
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 4: intensive care now because he's going to die.

30
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 3: Oh look, I look. I when I did that interview,

31
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 3: it was it was all based on the fact.

32
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:31,800
Speaker 1: That I thought I was going to die.

33
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 3: I sort of got the feeling with people that were

34
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:36,680
Speaker 3: around me and looking at me, You're saying, well, mate,

35
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 3: if you aren't going to accept our.

00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,359
Speaker 3: That's sort of sometimes you sort of get reminded of

48
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:19,080
Speaker 3: the fact that you need to look after your skin

49
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 3: a bit and don't treat it too roughly.

50
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:24,119

54
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:38,359
Speaker 3: of people, so a lot of distractions, and it's easy

55
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 3: for me to actually just not even think about it.

56
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 2: And are you still in contact with other people who

57
