I would actually argue that it's much, much worse for first-world children to not understand the basics of programming and computer literacy than not know how to swim in this day and age. | ||

also to anyone who has ever had to/tried to save someone who was drowning- it is a LOT harder than you would think because people panic and make it a LOT harder than just simply grabbing and swimming, especially when they are flailing around throwing arms/legs in all directions, it can be quite difficult. | ||

Have you ever had a cramp while swimming? A bad cramp can mess up even the best swimmer, and it just goes downhill once you start panicking. | ||

Now, this may sound too far-fetched, but I think we could at least theorize progaming proves its usefulness for character building. Flash and Jaedong certainly are the best progamers you can find to have learned how to remain calm and focused in disastrous situations and pull unlikely survivals. | ||

From what I understand from the post, it was 6 am, and they hadn't slept all night. They already swam a few laps back and forth so maybe so was just too exhausted. | ||
