‘You never think it will happen to you.’ That’s the first thought that Paris terror attack victim Isobel Bowdery had as she pretended to be dead for over an hour. The 22-year old student was present when gunmen opener fire at hundreds of concert goers at Bataclan concert hall in Paris on Friday.

Holding my breath, trying to not move, not cry - not giving those men the fear they longed to see. I was incredibly lucky to survive. But so many didn’t,” writes Bowdery as she recounts the ‘massacre’. But she also managed to see the slight silver lining as she wrote about the ordinary heroes among the bloodshed. “But being a survivor of this horror lets me able to shed light on the heroes. To the man who reassured me and put his life on line to try and cover my brain whilst i whimpered, to the couple whose last words of love kept me believing the good in the world, to the police who succeeded in rescuing hundreds of people, to the complete strangers who picked me up from the road and consoled me… you make me believe this world has the potential to be better,” Bowdery wrote.
