BTW - since I haven't seen this mentioned in the thread yet - many hotel pools (and other pools on privately-owned property) in the USA won't have life-guards, just a big sign saying "No Lifeguard On Duty. Swim at own Risk" or similar. I'd have expected some place snazzy enough to have a "spa" to have one, but not necessarily.

tbh I'd never really considered it before - most people I know tend to think even having to have the signs is a little silly, just because so many people here do know how to swim - but on reflection I'm not really sure why it's legally possible to run a pool with no lifeguard.

Disgusting.

From what I gather, Kal had a hard time staying alive and people not only make jokes about it, but even make meme posters?

Disgusting and sad.


And on top of that indignance, they even mispell his handle!

Hite-STX football friendly.

Looks like Calm got contacts or Lasik. I think he's the rumored progamer who has a secret gf.

And yes, Hite have enough members to make up a football team.

I wonder if Jaedong thought for a split second, 'what if I don't save Flash?'

And now that we know whole story Jaedong needs way more credit.

If my Korean was better, I'd translate the first-hand account and post it on dcinside.

EDIT: On hindsight, that would be a bad idea cos Flash, JD and Kal will probably get slammed by netizens for going to the pool in the first place while half-drunk.

Man, the story from slog is terrifying.. I could only think of how painful it is to have so much water on your lungs. Good thing nothing really bad came afterwards, I had a friend that almost drowned but had health problems after, he said that water got to his brain and now his kinda an epileptic that needs medicine maintenance.
I don't think I've ever wished my opponent good luck prior to a game. When I play, I play to win. I hope every opponent I ever have is cursed with fucking terrible luck. I hope they're stuck playing underneath a stepladder with a black cat in attendance a

Lol @ You. Get real man... that poster is hilarious. Yes, if Kal had died it would be extremely inappropriate obviously but everyone made it out fine and Flash became a bonjwa at life saving. Near misses are always funny.

If you actually read the first hand account from slog4 POV, you would realize that Jaedong was the one who initially saved everyone. If jaedong did not grab slog4 out of the pool, it is very likely that both him and Kal would of died, and possibly flash as well. Jaedong removing 1 person allowed flash to concentrate on just Kal rather than kal AND slog.

Seriously, I dont really find it funny at all....
