Winds had reached speeds of 86mph and waves were 5m high
The elderly man, 75, was dragged in first and his wife, 76, ran to save him
She too was sucked under and a passer-by, Olivier Lou ran to help them
The trio were struggling in the waves when another man came to their aid
Eric Roudaut, 42, rescued the trio before firemen arrived
They were taken by helicopter to Hôpital Cavale Blanche
