Drowning doesn't look like drowning.

A good look at how to recognize a person is drowning. Worth reviewing.

How to know when someone is in trouble in the water. Slate Magazine.

Great info Bruce, thanks for sharing.

That sure is a lot different than what I learned as a teenager taking lifeguard training. Thanks for the update.

Thanks Bruce. 🙂 We all need periodic reminders about this sort of happening.

A very timely post, in light of a local high school drowning and all the questions associated with why nobody noticed until the student was missed in a head-count.
Thank you.

Good and surprising information. I had just finished reading the article when the very same story was on the Today Show. I have already started passing it along.
Thank you,
