In 1918, a scow carrying two men broke free from the tug that was bringing them home. The scow used to dredge sand from the Niagara river caught on a rocky out crop 700 metres from the endge of the falls.Using a grappling gun fired from the top of the Toronto Powerhouse provided by the U.S. Coast Guard the two were rescued. The ordeal took 28 hours.
