So, they decide to have a night time epiphany? They had one.

~ People like this never expect something like this to happen to them, despite the extraordinarily obvious risks, until it happens to them.

A rushing river at night was the best option for this?

I was 13, fuck you).

So I carefully walked down a slope that had like 6 inches (or 152 millimeters) of fresh snow. I didn't know there was ice under it, I slipped and slid right into the river. I managed to turn my body sideways, so only my right leg was completely submerged... but i'll never forget how cold that shit was and how strong the current was. I managed to pull myself out (my buddy ironically froze up). We barely talked on the way home, but I remember the first thing I said to him was "well... that sucked." Lol.

At the time, I was so focused on how cold my leg was and hoping I wasn't going to end up in a Lieutenant Dan situation, that I didn't even realize how terrible that could've gone... my buddy could've watched me slide in and just be gone while I would've been swooped off, trapped under the ice, totally panicked until I drowned. But I made it home, took a hot shower, and never told my family about it until I was an adult.

So you dodged the belt, I assume?

Alexander Zuev, head of the VOSVOD rescue service, noted, the Oredezh River has a fast current, up to 3 m/s.

“As far as is known, the woman went to plunge into a place where there are no lifeguards, there is no proper lighting – a lane was simply cut down on the river. Two options are being considered: either it was syncopal drowning (death due to vasospasm. – Ed.), Or it was simply carried away by the current, ”he said.

look kids, what not to do

thanks for the lifelong psychological damage mom.

If they must do this out on a lake instead of the special made Epiphany pools in Russian towns and cities at least wear a rope around the waist in case this happens!!!
