They had an accident. They fell down deep into the river. The impact of the fall made them lose consciousness. When they woke up, they knew that the Indians had saved their lives.


All done. The last line would probably have to remain in past perfect. All other corrections have been made for you.

Simple Past Tense

Hi, I'm looking at the simple past tense and I would like to know if the end of this story is written correctly. Thanks. 
They had an accident and they're fell down into a deep in the river. The impact of the fall made them lose consciousness. When they woke up, they knew that the Indians had saved their lives.

Hi Nathy,

I took the liberty to edit other parts of your sentences.

As for your last sentence, I find that you have used simple past and past perfect tense appropriately. The Indians did something in the more distant past (past perfect tense) before something else in the more recent past (woke, knew) took place.

I hope this helps.
