stress
Primary victim

 Page v smith
 British steel plc v simmons- negligence caused
skin disease which lead to depression
Involuntary participants
 Dooley v cammell laird- defective rope, although

 The plaintiff is in the actual area of danger but
escapes physical injury
 Reasonably believes that he or she is in danger
Secondary victims
 Must prove four elements
 1. Close tie of love and affection-parent child,
husband wife, although exception in McCarthy v
CCSYP-half brother allowed to claim
 2. Physical and temporal proximity – McLoughlin
v O’brian (u take a look at this case)
 3. Means of perception- must come through sight
or hearing of the events and its aftermath
 4. manner of which psychiatric illness was caused
Rescuers
 Chadwick v BRB-british railway board, rescuers
can generally claim for compensation

rescue attempt
 Mcfarlene v EE Celedonia
 White v CCSYP
