"Drowning is almost always a deceptively quiet event. The waving, splashing, and yelling that dramatic conditioning (television) prepares us to look for, is rarely seen in real life."
You can read the rest here. I highly recommend it, it could save someone's life.
I came close to drowning as a child, and I wish the asshat adult who stood just out of arm's reach and laughed at me had read and understood this. Some memories never go away....
