Sam (Keep Breathing)

Sam is a character on Keep Breathing.

Throughout Keep Breathing
At an airport, Liv overheard Sam and pilot George talking about going to Inuvik and bribed them to allow her to hitch a ride. On the flight, Sam and Liv got to know each other. Sam told Liv he was a National Geographic photographer who was heading to Northern Canada to take photos of caribou runs. The plane experienced some turbulence, and suddenly crashed into a lake.

Liv unbuckled Sam to free him. Sam, who couldn't swim, began to panic and opened the plane door to escape, causing the plane to sink at a much faster rate, which trapped George, who was still buckled upside down in the cockpit. While underwater, Liv attempted to save George as well, but was unable to. She left him in the plane, where he drowned to death, and Liv swam to the surface. There, she swam backstroke to drag Sam to shore.

Sam was injured by a piece of metal and bled profusely from his leg. Liv used his belt to make a tourniquet to stop the bleeding. The next morning, Sam felt severe abdominal pains, revealed to be due to internal bleeding. Liv was optimistic that National Geographic would send someone to save them, but Sam explained that he had lied about being a photographer and that no one would save them. He died shortly after.

Liv later retrieved Sam and George's bags from the sunken plane, which was filled with cash and oxycodone pills.

Liv buried Sam's body and, using the cash and her glasses, she managed to start a fire. Night fell and she stared at the fire. She heard Sam's voice telling her that she had no one and would not survive.
