Bataclan survivor: I feel guilty to still be alive

Julian Pearce, a reporter with France's Europe 1 radio station, was in the Bataclan nightclub, in Paris, when gunmen attacked on November 13th, 2015.

89 people watching the 'Eagles of Death Metal' perform on stage were shot dead that night.

Julien puts his survival down to the body of a man next to him, shielding him from the gunmen. He escaped from the venue twenty minutes later through a side door. Since that night, he鈥檚 never walked past the scene of the attack.

Julien told 5 live's Nick Garnett still felt guilty to be still alive, when so many others lost their lives.
