Last Saturday, a tragedy occurred on Lake Lebyazhye in the Shegarsky District of Tomsk: a 21-year-old boy drowned. On Monday, footage shot by a friend of the deceased appeared on the network - on them a young man enters the water, but does not emerge back.

“Brother, the [awesome] vidos will… Dive in, bro!” - the operator points out.

The footage shows how the guy gradually enters the reservoir to an ever greater depth. At one point, he hides with his head under water - only a hand is shown on the surface, which Tomsk is waving, showing that something is going wrong.

An eyewitness to the tragedy began to call for help: “He is drowning, he is drowning! He waved his hand! the man exclaims in panic.

When asked why he was inactive, the operator explained that he could not swim.

As previously reported, divers examined 20 square meters of water and, despite the fact that the work was complicated by dense vegetation at the bottom, they found the body of a guy.

thanks to @Slavo for those infos

Just let me know if it’s a repost and will be quickly taken down

This is one of my absolute favorite 911 calls. The dispatcher shows so little regard for human life and at one point mocks her, it's just absolutely crazy.

Deborah Stevens had been delivering newspapers when she was caught in a dark area in between two apartment complex buildings and swept out to the river that was just on the other side. The dispatcher continuously lectured her how dare she be driving in water as Deborah pleaded for her life.

The water had moved so quickly it was already up to her windows and she was unable to open the doors because of the pressure.

This is just sad idk what the backstory is, (!Mods feel free to move this if it's in the Wong flair please!)

The preventable event happened Sunday 27th, in the city of Morros, Maranhão.

A party had been in full force, with everyone consuming alcohol, partying and enjoying themselves.

The male (Identity net yet released), had been in high spirits and even recorded some of his friends and himself having fun before then making his fateful and intoxicated decision to go swimming, where he drowned as a result.

No backstory.

Pedro Carbo, Guayas, Ecuador - Jul, 2018

This is the horrifying moment a tourist plunged to his death in the background as a rapper filmed a music video.

The shocking clip shows Ecuadorian artist Don Day filming a video for hit song Hablando con la Luna at the bottom of the Laguna Salto de Oro waterfall.

But in the background a figure can be seen plummeting from the top of the falls after appearing to slip.

The man slams into the water, sparking a frenzied rescue attempt from Don Day's crew.

According to witnesses, the victim was part of a tourist group who had nothing to do with the production of the video.

There was a group of tourists jumping from the top of a waterfall and one of them, despite the warnings, launched himself - and manged to re-surface, said onlookers.

Shooting of the music video was then suspended.

The victim was identified as Carlos Pontoon, 33, who drowned after throwing himself from the top of the waterfall in an 'adventure challenge'.

He was declared dead on arrival at a local hospital.

This video was originally shared in a discussion about scuba diving accidents. I am sharing a shortened version here, but the full video can easily be found on YouTube and other sites.

Scuba diving scares the shit out of me. And watching this video, it is the same feeling as dying on a far away planet. Nothing in the environment supports human life. Sheer panic.

Synopsis : At 9:15am on January 28th, a mother of 2 vanished while walking her dog, after 23 days of completely unnecessary conflict between the police, the media and the public, Nicolas body was discovered by 2 dog walkers, just 1 mile away from where she went missing.

Any futher info about how or why this happened is not known.

Are the teachers blind? It's sad how that can happen, they'd rather keep eating than check out a pool full of kids! (if this is repost let me know i love you darling)

7-31-2018, Beibeilamu pool, Fuzhou, mainland China

On the 31st of July, 2018, a child's first birthday becomes a nightmare as one year old Xiao Ai's lifebuoy flipped over and plunged her headfirst into the water. Though the other child attempted to save her, even trying to pull her back up and give her the floatation device back, he simply could not. He can be seen trying to grab the attention of the nearby woman, which initially went ignored as the mother batted away at the child then turned her back on him as if annoyed, going back to her mobile device.

After administering CPR, the mother ran to a local clinic, but the doctor there refused to provide care due to inadequate equipment. By the time she found a taxi and made it to Jinshan Provincial Hospital, more than 20 minutes had already passed. The baby girl’s lips were already purple and her body was cold. Heartbeat resumed but no respiratory response.

She was pronounced brain dead at the hospital and could not breathe on her own without assistance. Information on her current status could not be found. According to comprehensive land media reports, the mother of the baby girl said that the staff originally put on the baby girl a vest-style life jacket, but the mother thought it was too big, so she replaced it with a sitting swim ring.

Repost with longer video + original audio and some context.

If you're retarded like me and took a while to find the kid, he jumps into the pool by the ladder near the bottom of the clip and sinks near instantaneously, around the 16 second mark.

Context:

On August 14th, 2022, an unnamed 8yr old from the Lianyuan city of China drowned in a public pool after a minute of struggle despite the presence of others nearby. At one point, another child could be observed jumping near him, though he must've not seen his struggling as a sign of genuine distress.

There are a number of articles that mostly regurgitate the same information. The one below makes an interesting note of how children may not have the presence of mind to call out for help like adults would in that situation, and their flails to stay afloat could be taken as play. The article lists the signs of youth drowning to know when it's time to take a child out of the water.
