paramedics were called to cockle bay wharf in sydney 's darling harbour on saturday night after they received a report that a person had entered the water .
the man was fished out of the water by a group of ambulance workers , but before they could wrap him in a foil blanket , the freezing man lost his footing and fell backwards , landing back in the water again .
in 2012 , 19-year-old jason daep drowned in cockle bay after a brawl broke out at pontoon nightclub just metres from the waters .
