We're all glad that you're ok though. Was everyone very shaken up after it? | ||

Of course for you it was pretty hardcore but...for someone reading this 1000s of miles away on his PC thats pretty funny If something had gone terribly wrong of course the reactions would be very different.. | ||

On a personal note, I almost drowned in a river when I was 15, but now, with hindsight, I can laugh and joke about it. | ||

Being close to drowning is not exactly a fun experience, and saving someone from drowning is not something that you forget easily either. I saved a friend when I was a teenager and of course him being alive is great, but it still gives me the chills. He could swim too, but just started flailing and simply sank two meters down to the bottom. I can't remember how I got him up. Just remember all the air bubbles and him kind of standing on the bottom, next I remember is that I drag him on the surface to the shore (this was a lake) close by. And to you people repeating how tall Kal is; if you've never been in anything other than a kids pool you might not want to make jokes about others. In Norway most pools are from 1 to 4 meters, and a person with panic can drown in a small puddle anyways. You only show your own ignorance with such comments. In addition I'm glad Flash got Kal to shallow water, because if he had tried to get him out of the pool at the deep end with no practice doing so this could have ended badly (you need to do things in a certain order to get yourself and the person you are saving out of a pool where you have no footing, even with a ladder). | ||

It's not an education/life experience/progamer issue, it's a 6am, drunk, jumping from hot->cold water (if I'm understanding correctly), swimming issue. As was mentioned before, it's serious business, even for a strong swimmer, and the posts here demonstrate that most people don't realize it. They put themselves in a situation that all the life experience and swim classes in the world wouldn't prepare you for. Next time you're out getting hammered with your buddies and someone suggests you go for a swim, remember this! | ||
