What would you do in this scenario?

Question

Someone gave me this scenario and I was wondering what people thought.
Your on a sinking oil rig. All the heli's have taken off. You and two others are left abord. How do you:
1: Surive the rig sinking
2: Get help afterwards

(Think hard)

Answer 1

I guess start swimming as hard and fast as I can in any direction, so the sinking rig doesn't pull me down and to get away from any oil that pours out onto the top of the water (talk about your muck!) and then pray that either the heli comes back or the authorities send someone to search.

Answer 2

Use you cell phone and phone the coast guard.
