Re: Man Who Jumped Off Bridge Tries, in Vain, to Rescue Himself
It's insane to me that you would even think there aren't many people who can swim here. I bet most here can swim. I can only speak for Canada and the US but everybody knows how to swim. It's much more strange for someone to not be able to swim here. That's what's so crazy to me. So you don't know how to swim? And many people you know don't either?

Re: Man Who Jumped Off Bridge Tries, in Vain, to Rescue Himself
The clicks coincided with when the water dude started drowning (not surfacing enough to catch a breath). It was probably the man's way of "vocalizing" his stress in seeing a human pass the threshold from living to drowning.

Re: Man Who Jumped Off Bridge Tries, in Vain, to Rescue Himself
I’m assuming his legs are injured. Ever fuck around in the pool and try and swim without using your legs? You don’t last long. He was probably trying to stay afloat for a bit before the Indian Michael J. Fox started recording. |

Re: Man Who Jumped Off Bridge Tries, in Vain, to Rescue Himself
Looks to me like a common drowning of a non-swimmer. Not necessarily any injury. Non-swimmers don't know kicking technique and tend to focus on flapping their arms to bob their heads above water. But their heads cycle back under water as they reset their arms for another push. In short time, their arms wear out and the underwater part of the bob cycle becomes too long to hold their breaths. Then they panic, flail their arms as their head remains under water. Then they pass out from lack of oxygen and sink. It takes well under 60 seconds between their last gulp of air, and the drop out of sight. |
