I completed life guard training in high school and that experience was difficult. One thing I remember from the drills was how hard it was to rescue someone, if you had to pull their weight in deep water. And thats in calm water, with a drill partner who is not panicking, and I was a fairly strong swimmer. People underestimate that a lot and sometimes end up drowning themselves, while trying to save someone. Ideally, wed like to see the police try to save people in need, but I dont think they are actually trained to do that in the water. --- ... ... Copied to Clipboard! |
