I am good swimmer but if there is something people need to fear - it's water. Even water in bail or bucket can kill you. Fear water. Like anything - the most dangerous phase is when you know just about the basic and you start getting cocky. Be it swimming or driving or any skills - overconfidence is normally what kills.This girl clearly has basic swimming skills - she went to deep end - probably misjudge the distance - run out of breathe - and there was no one around to save her. If only she could relax - she would have floated - but most people panick - and they sink. If you get tired - just flip on you back - and you'll float effortlessly.

Anything above my knees scares me to death, but not my kids; every time we go to the beach, they go almost a mile deep into the deep blue sea until I can barely see them. Scary stuff, but I have learned people who know how to swim are safe, just like fish in the water. The lady that drowned was not a swimmer! May her soul RIP. It must be terrifying for the family to see someone drown to death, only for two white guys to come and say the poodle seems drowned in the water!
