A game where you run across the River on a long floating pad. Impossible task. Laughter turns to concern turns to disbelief as boy drowns in front of everyone.

Just let me know if it’s a repost and will be quickly taken down

How can you be so retarded to play games in the water if you don't know how to swim

Jump in the discussion.

My exact thought!

“Oh hey, lemme just run across this barely buoyant bridge that will sink when I start walking across it unless I run fast enough! Even though I dont know how to swim.”

Should be common sense: IF YOU DONT KNOW HOW TO SWIM, DONT FUCK WITH WATER! YOURE NOT A FISH!

A kid who’s also old enough to make smart decisions. And also one who should be old enough to know how to swim. Idk why no one wouldnt wanna know how to swim unless youre afraid of waters.

Normally i wouldn't share my personal opinion like this but in this situation the person who attempted this "game" did it knowing he couldn't swim.

There is no logical reason to be sad for a person when they willingly put themselves in danger and die as a result.

another demon coming to back up his brethren eh? It's still very sad that kid died due to making a mistake. It's doesn't take away from the fact he didn't want to die, thus making it heartbreaking he had to go through something like that. A lot of people make careless mistakes, he was just a kid after all. NO ONE deserves to die against their will whether it was their fault or not.

No healthy person wishes to die, that's correct but it already happened and there is no going back.

It is illogical to lament after someone when they died because of their own mistakes. He might not have wanted to die but the same is true for most people, what matters is that he did a idiotic mistake and paid the price for it.

I won't cry since no one will spare their tears if i were to die, people will go on with their lives no matter what because they seek peace and we are not demons for wanting the same.

OMG !!!! HOW FUKIN STUPID ARE THESE PEOPLE !!!! Make a game whereby people who don't know how to swim participate, but we don't force them to wear any kind of life preserver / vest, we have no lifeguards, and no one around who will save you, and to make that much easier, and quicker, (to drown you) we're going to tire you out first by running across a stupid sinking mat. Yea. Where do I sign my children up for this well thought out, safe, watersports game ??? It's truly mind boggling.

Imagine not being able to swim. It's just a basic thing. Hell you don't even need to swim, assuming the water is fairly still you can pretty much just float on your back indefinitely.

I get the whole "panic" thing, but god damn if you somehow don't grasp the simple human function of swimming then why do you go in the water? Fucking retarded.

not everyone has the same buoyancy. i dont float but i can swim. if he knew how to swim even just a little bit he could have held onto the floating thing though, just kick a bit pull on the floating pad to shore. some people float above water level, some just under, some sink. i'm just under where if i don't move, my head won't be above the water lying horizontal.

Man, the dude trying to save him was only a few seconds too late.. WOW!! One of the first things I did before my kids were ever even school aged, was have them take swimming lessons at the YMCA. I remember as a kid myself, I "thought" I knew how to swim OK because I had been in the deep end near the edge of the city swimming pool many times, but one day when we were out swimming at the lake with my uncle, I went out a bit too far, panicked and started drowning my dumb ass by flailing everywhere. Lucky for me my uncle was nearby and saw that I was going down and saved my sorry ass. That experience put it into my head that if I had kids, they were damn well gonna learn to swim. Scary when it happens to you and would be a shitty way to die.

Also even if you know how to swim... you gotta know how LONG you can swim. So dont go so far that you cant make it back.

Bro how do people not know how to swim. Im not very bouyant but if u was to sink i would have to TRY. You ever try swimming to the bottom of the pool to get something? You have to FORCE YOURSELF DOWN THERE. How do people just sink like rocks is beyond me. Must be some extra chromosomes in their cereal

This is why everyone should be taught how to swim as a kid. Or even just, the fact that if you don't move at all, in most cases you won't sink.

The wisest advice my dad gave is that "whenever you're on vacation be very alert cos it's in the midst of euphoria our senses on impending dangers weans away which will not only result in a totally avoidable tragedy but the intense regret of why the hell did i even do this will test or break our willpower to be saved" whenever I see an avoidable side quests like these i promptly avoid it

Being that he couldn’t swim in the first place, I wonder if his heart was thumping and if he had tunnel vision as he stood on land and looked down the water bridge. There’s no way his body wasn’t giving him a (Bro get tf away from here) signal as he prepared to commit suicide

I don't get it. Just inhale air in your lungs and you'll float. I know some people can't swim but i still can't get it. Why can't they just inhale air and float? i don't think you need to know how to swim for this.

I mean for Christ's sake you don't even need to move in order to float. So i guess he just drowned himself due to panic?

not everyone floats. blacks are notorious for having high bone/muscle density and being negatively buoyant.

that said, it would not have taken much to survive even if you are neutral or negative buoyant. you can lay on your back but still need to use arms/legs to counter gravity. but someone needs to teach you that if you are not positively buoyant.
