I had known this for years I am 52 years young and I learned this plus another one of these life saving techniques as well to get air into the jeans too I had learned and practiced in swimming pools too , learning to swim is a must male and females, C.P.R CERTIFICATION IS A MUST IF YOU HAVE KIDS, IF YOU SEELL FOOD IF YOU WORK IN FOOD AND HOSPITALITY, WORK IN NURSING HOMES ITS A MUST

If that is such an emergency, why did she stand in shallow water (she didn't Bob with the waves) , and why did she turn and head toward deep water if she was in an emergency? Doubt it was AI, but poorly thought out and executed. C- in my class.🤔

I learned how to create my personal floating device when I was a Boy Scout. It was part of the requirements for the Life Saving Merit Badge!

Learned this at lifeguard training in the Berwyn/Paoli suburban Philadelphia YMCA in the summer of 1974. I lied by 2 years to get my certification. Great memories of ways to meet girls at the pool…

That’s an Old Navy trick, That’s why Navy uniforms have flared out pant legs so they can get them off easy and turn it into a life yet if they offer fall overboard
