Excellent article about what a drowning victim actually looks like/experiences. My own experience as a lifeguard and training lifeguards bears this out.
Drowning Doesn't Look Like Drowning
Great article!! :applaud:
I was trained as a lifeguard in 1992, and I don't recall ever hearing about what a true drowning victim looks like.
I'm with Queen and I'd love to hear about current training on this subject if anyone has had recent lifeguard training.
Same here. First trained in '96 or '97 and I don't remember this being in any of the training. I haven't done any lifeguarding since 2002 or so. I only lifeguarded in small pools; never had to dive in the water to save anyone.
