Yeah, I can. Much like others here, I was given swimming lessons when I was really little. I do not think an adult could drown in a pool, but in a lake, or ocean maybe.

I don't think it's because they can't swim. I mean, anyone can doggie paddle. I think it's more they let their nerves get to them, so they do not focus, and just splash away like a madman. So the anxiety gets worse, and then they drown.

I am always amazed when I see a documentary, or something where people are on ships or subs, and then something happens, and it's going down and stories of people who can't swim. I mean, come on.
