It’s hilarious ppl think taking lessons will automatically make you adequate at something.

I’ve taken multiple swimming lessons, from when I was a kid, to an adult, and I am still a below average swimmer :mjlol:

My sons are 4 and 2 and I try to get them in the pool and they fail miserably.

Taking lessons ain’t gonna solve everything if it ain’t meant to be
No one is acting like everyone needs to become a champion open water swimmer. But I bet if your ass got thrown in a 20ft pool you know enough to get you back over to the edge. People who don’t know how to swim at all are making even a rescue of them harder.

It seems like every body YouTube algo' got them searching this shyt

Just watch a video and go to the Latest comments

The main part that most people don't know about is the fact that it was literally pitch black



Other video I watched described the survivors just hearing moans and screams in pitch black darkness

Sound like the worst of a horror movie

If you can ride a bike, you can swim.

Fear of the water is understandable, but the more accustomed you get with being in water, the less fear you'll have.​

Yeah the survivors were in lifeboats that could have had more people in them and were waiting to be rescued.

While mainly men were holding onto debris crying out and then dying of hypothermia after 15-25 min in that frigid water

More lives could have been saved but people on the lifeboats didn’t want to go back for anyone else

2 things I came across

One, they evacuated women and children first, but, that left a lot of the lifeboats with empty--they could've saved more ppl there

Two, they did try, but most ppl were dead within 15 minutes as the water was 28 degrees plus when they did get a handful of ppl, they were just not in good shape

I didn't realize cool water could be that deadly in that short team

They rescued this one guy only because he was balancing himself on some furniture and even that one person took 30 minutes to get to because of all the debris

Would you fight for a seat on a life boat or let the others have it?

:yeshrug: I'm a man, I'd prolly die helping ppl because survival guilt is a muh'fukka
Looking back at it, at least you are alive to have survivors remorse. fukk that. I would have been one of the first ones on.

Lol you wouldn’t even have a chance. Most third class passengers were screwed and had no way of reaching the lifeboats
Third class?:mjpls: I’m an opulent breh on my @Luken shyt:blessed:

I saw a video explaining what happened to those people on the sub, luckily for them they didn’t feel a thing when it imploded. It happened so fast the brain has no time to process the pain. He described it as a hydraulic press crushing a tube of toothpaste, whatever was left became food for the fishes.
