Is it really? I never heard of that. Are you looking for wealthy men? I know a hot and interesting place named Billionairepal.com where I have met my boyfriend. You may take a look.

I feel for them and their families. This is one of the reasons I never buy cars with electric windows and door locks. Sad. The whole things is sad.

This is a sad end to a very tragic story. I had hopes they would find the girls alive. My heart and prayers go out to the families of the three girls and hope they can heal and remember the girls for the wonderful memories they shared together. God Bless all of you. Rest In Peace!

To die terrified is a terrible way to go. The family's heart of these young students must ache tremendously. RIP.

Pretty sad. I hoped the lakes were the first thing they checked out being that the dad even mentioned in the video report while in search for the girls that he knew that's what kids did in their town, star gazing by the lake.

Very Sad indeed. I do not know these young ladies but it is still a very sad day. I to love going out and seeing the full moon and stars and how this could have happen is very sad and strange. I just wonder how you could be driving along a road and end up in a pond, just does not seem possible? I think the police should look further into this as this just seems to weired. Was someone chasing them? Something had to be going on to take their attention away from the road...it just does not happen unless there is something else going on. How late was it when they drove into the pond? did the driver fall asleep? There has to be a reason why this happen it just can't be they drove in a pond. Something else happen here, just what was it?

It's very pathetic situation.Generally I think , most of the western countries girls, they have enough freedom unlike eastern countries girls.parents & children ,both of them have to some kind of a respondibility of their own familly. everything we have to done ,before some one killed. it's very sad. unhappy, situation.take care.

There have been a couple of similar situations in my region in the last couple of years. Strange, but mistakenly driving into a lake/pond/river happens more often that you'd think.

Sorry about these three girls. I feel terribly for their families.

Some un-answered questions,according to reports girls were on private property If star gazing by the lake was their gig what were they doing on private property I believe on a farmers land,there are a few questions here that need to be answered.

Very sad and tragic. Let this be a lesson to all. Be prepared! Keep an emergency kit in your vehicle, including something to break a window with. Don't panic. Stay calm and think things through. In a situation like this, due to the water pressure, the windows won't work (if electric, they may even be shorted out) and the doors won't open. Use whatever tool you have to break the window, let the water rush in while you hold your breath. Once the vehicle is full, open the door or climb through the window. If you need to take another breath, there will always be an air pocket at the roof of the vehicle at the highest interior point.

My deepest condolences to the families of the three girls.

WHY in the hell did the girls call their friends instead of 911? Someone in police, fire and rescue could have reached them sooner, maybe even in time to save their lives. This is so tragic. My prayers go out to the girls' families and friends.

ANYONE THAT WOULD GO OFF ROADING AT NIGHT DRIVING FAST ON UNFAMILIAR LAND IS STUPID!
ALSO ANYONE THAT DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO ESCAPE AND SAVE THEMSELVES IS STUPID! AND I HATE ELECTRIC WINDOWS!

I still think theres more to this story,especially the phone call about being near water,if you go into a body of water I believe the last thing I would do is call a friend,I might use the phone to break the window,but to call as your sinking I just don;t by.And if they were star gazing but were not familar with the area and it was dark or getting dark,just a lack of common-sense,there is something just missing regardless what transpired.

It is called country cruising. We all have done it. They were drinking and ran off the road drunk. Hello why not be honest media?
