Want to know how people who know how to swim can drown? By trying to help someone else who cannot swim from drowning.

I'd be fucked if I just watched,I'd have to help it's that simple, maybe I'm stupid but I can't in all honesty let someone die if I can help

Fair enough, I applaud that. I wouldn't help because I am not willing to give up my life for someone else.

But could you live with yourself if you just stood and watched

Yes, because I know I was alive. I'd rather be alive 100% than a less than 100% chance of survival helping someone else.

It's cruel, but it's better one death than both of you.

Sure you can swim, but the other person can't, and they're gonna attempt to use you as a buoy with zero fucks for your safety.

Panicked state is a bitch.

How would you manage it, attempt to surface them to lay flat above the surface with an inhale, which I feel, doubtful at best?

Idiots who don't know what they are talking about say "go in and help them" - but the drowning person instinctively grabs anything and everything they can get their hands on, and they WILL drag a rescuer under to their deaths ....

I think you'd be much safer waiting until the person totally stops struggling, and THEN grab them, and pull them to shore. They WILL be unconscious at that point, and will need CPR, and it's not guaranteed that they will live - but I'm not going near someone who is thrashing in the water.

and he didn't even attempt to get help, just stood there in silence filming his bud drinking the sea

Sometimes, people don't realize what is happening - until after - and it's pretty common for people to freeze - and not realize at the time that they should do something.

Lifeguards have said that drowning does NOT look like what most people THINK drowning looks like. MANY people go under with very little splashing - and don't come up again.

If YOU were to try to save a drowning person, the odds are WAY TOO HIGH they will desperately grab onto you and drag you under the water - to your DEATH.

If you don't know this - you don't know SHIT about danger in the water.

Would you rather it would be 2 people dead instead of 1? :marseydead:

If you concede that they might not have known how to swim, then what type of effort would you expect? Yelling? There was absolutely nothing they could do that would make any difference whatsoever.
