The body of a 26-year-old Irish man who jumped off a bridge into a creek north of Revelstoke, B.C., and never resurfaced has been recovered, according to Irish news reports and his former Gaelic football club. At the time, his Vancouver men's Gaelic football team members expressed sadness, saying they were "heartbroken" by the loss of the small-town Irish athlete, popular with teammates. On Saturday night, the body of the young man was reported found by a search team that included specially-trained Irish divers, according to Irish media reports.
