Man's "friends" bet him he can't swim across the lake

All he had to do is turn over on his back, and float.

Absolutely

But it's easier said than done for a non-swimmer.

sheesh, what made him drown? He almost got to the other side!

His friends KNEW he couldn't swim and knew there was a deep drop-off in the middle.

His feet could touch the bottom until he hit the deep drop-off.
And then *glug glug glug*

I actually saved myself doing this. I was very young, maybe five. I was told not to go near the pool. We were visiting my parents friends. I was left alone long enough to fall in. I sunk at first obviously. When I popped back up I was further away from the edge, so I flipped over on my back, held my breath, and kicked my feet until rescued. It all took maybe 20 seconds. But somehow I knew to float on my back.

Edited to clarify, I know I would have been saved regardless, but in my mind at the moment it seemed like I saved myself.

This is a perfect situation for that old saying..."with friends like that, who needs enemies".

"It's a drop in the middle, Jake!" they yell, just as he hits the drop.

If there was a bucket of KFC on the other side, he would have made it.

This is a technique that they are even teaching babies now. Crazy but makes sense. We have the will to survive at even the youngest of ages.

That is sad. I don't understand why he did this if he couldn't swim.

That woman yelling, "kick your feet", should have been yelling "cup your hands". Anyone can doggy paddle.

Teach your babies to swim.

When I was in diapers, my Mother dropped me in the water and I came back up and she shoved me back under and I clawed back up her leg that time. I remember it.

How about you fight AGAINST CIRCUMCISION and other trauma instead of fighting for a baby that CAN NOW SAVE ITS LIFE NOW. Maybe it was scary but now the baby will NEVER drown.

That makes sense to me. And it's a win.

Let me correct they headline, “Black Man Dies from Racism”. Many people aren’t aware of the history of slave masters preventing their slaves from learning how to swim. If they could swim they could more easily escape. So, they didn’t allow it. Unfortunately this institutional racism continues to this very day.

Go get another clot shot and STFU. Canada is a completely pussified and subjected cuckboy pasture now.

Please do not post sarcasm like this, some retards will spread it and believe it.

It's a river, not a lake, with a channel cut in the middle to accommodate big boats.

Blacks don't swim

Those weren't his friends.

Not to mention their language is offensive.

What’s that like 250 feet across? I thought this was going to lake michigan or something. How the fuck can a grown man not make it 250 ft

White men can't jump ???


Black folk can't swim.


Just like his buddies to stand there shuckin' & jivin' while he drowns.

Everyone should be taught how to swim. Also teach your children not to attempt to save a conscious drowning person on their own - otherwise they put themselves at risk to be drowned.

It's amazing how 24-7 we have stupid stuff like LGBTQ shoved down our throats but not basic life saving skills like swimming, hygiene, nutrition, etc.

That’s how you do it. When I was a kid they threw me off a dock

What a stupid video. They guy stopped filming vid and I log recorded audio as soon as dude started having trouble. Doesn’t seem real.

Did they save him?

Black folks have had almost two centuries now since SLAVERY to learn to swim.
Free lessons are offered everywhere.

They could become expert swimmers to spite YT, right?
