you would think before getting on a boat you might learn to swim first.... like fuck,

But also ive heard if you are around other people that are drowning can be very dangerous because they will try to hold onto you and drag you under with them.

When I was a kid and we went on a field trip to some resort, I tried swimming in this pool. Well, I "tried" swimming, but the fact is, I didn't (and still don't) know how to swim! I slipped in the pool and couldn't get up and I felt like I was drowning. My first instinct was to grab on to whatever leg I saw wiggling above me lol! Yeah, drowning people, those who don't know how to swim or those who are just fearful, will just grab whatever's nearby.
