I was 10 when I was forced underwater at a "lazy river" style pool. I couldn't get up due to the crowd of tubes around me. I really thought I was going to die. Then one strong arm grabbed me and pulled me up. 20 years later, I will always be thankful to that man.

Similar story here. I was about 14/15 years old. I was swimming in the wave pool at a water park for the first time. At some point, there were so many people in their tubes/floats that I was surrounded by them and forced underwater. While having no air in me, I pushed through to get out of the pool. I had swam in lakes with waves before and taken lots of swim classes, so I am a relatively strong swimmer. But I did not expect the large crowd of tubes to push me under and leave me with no space to breathe or vision of when the waves were coming. Thankfully I got myself out of the pool and then just sat while regaining my breath.

My older sister saved me from drowning in Lake Superior when I was maybe 8. I remember how terrifying it was to push off the bottom, catch a gasp of air, only to choke in water and being so fatigued and short of breath I couldn't shout out for help. She'll always have my utmost gratitude for watching out for my brother and I. Kudos to the son and his dad for acting quickly under a lot of pressure. I can't imagine doing CPR on such a small, unresponsive child.

She panicked squeezing the life out of me with her legs wrapped around my waist and holding my head down to keep herself above water as I sunk deeper down into the water. As I drowned and fought for my life I just knew I was going to die. A little boy who couldn’t have been more than 8 laid his body on the ground and reached his hand in the water for me to grab. I swear it was like an angled hand was reaching for me, I will never forget the fear and thoughts I had as I was drowning. I thank God every time it cross my mind for sending that child my way to save me. He was surely an angel!!!

drowning is really terrifying. and the more you panic the more it gets worse. I had a similar experience before when i was 7 or 8 years old. The streets are flooded and there was an uncovered manhole. I have never hated water but during that time the water seemed like a demon with intent of killing you. I gasped for air but only the cold dirty water goes in my mouth. The water was flowing so aggressively and I tried to grasped anything I could around me, around that turbulent chaos where you dont know if you are upside down or what, luckily there was another uncovered man hole up ahead where the water is more shallow. I grabbed the ledge of the hole and pulled myself forward against the current. that's how i got out of it. my nose smell like sewer water for a week

I didn't tell my mom about it until I was an adult, she was pretty upset even though it had been like 20 years since it happened by the time I told her. My older brother was supposed to have been watching me because I wasn't a strong swimmer, but I wanted to go down the slide in the deep end, he said he would and so I went, but when I landed in the water and didn't see him I panicked and started sinking, not even the lifeguard on duty noticed, if it hadn't been for that other random kid like me who reached out from his doughnut floaty and grabbed me, I would have drowned surrounded by people.

​@@thamertanner5448 In that moment the only thing that was scary was that I was drowning--but looking back as an adult, I have a niece and a nephew, thankfully both are very strong swimmers, is that no one bothered to pay attention, if they had I'm sure an adult would have helped me, but it took another child to save me. A few years back, my nephew was around 9 or so and we were all in the pool, my sister who is his mother, my nephew, my niece who's older, my sister's friend and her soon who is my nephew's age... we were getting ready to leave and the adults, and older niece who would have been around 16 at the time were at the other end of the pool from the two boys, my nephew threw the boy into the deep end playing not realizing he didn't know how to swim without his floating device, the second he did it we all noticed, and my nice jumped into the pool, but my nephew went right in after his buddy and pulled him out before anyone else got there. We were all paying attention, and went right in after him, and still its very scary how easy he could have drowned if my nephew who was there playing with him wouldn't have been such a strong swimmer at such a young age. So imagine when people aren't paying attention.

She was sick to her stomach one day & ran to throw up. In those approximately 3 minutes it took to puke, he had dragged a counter bar stool to the door & got it open to escape again. Some kids are just like that & no amount of shaming someone who is trying their best will make it any different.

This is totally terrifying. 30 years ago I had the same experience. I was in the army stationed at Fort Bliss. I went over to my girlfriend's apartment for lunch one day, I glanced out the window and noticed a small shadow at the bottom of the apartments swimming pool. Bolted out the door and over the fence around the pool then jumped in in full uniform. Pulled the kid out and started CPR. About three minutes in he heaves up a ton of water and starts breathing and comes to. The kids mom runs up and I tell her he needs to get to the emergency room. This crazy lady runs him into her apartment and I don't think she took him to the doc. I got back to my unit and, still dripping wet, I walked up to my First Sargent and told him I was done for the day. He tried to tell me I wasn't but after I told him what had happened he was cool with it. Scared the living crap out of me and took hours for my hands to stop shaking.

If she truly loves her son maybe she'd look after him better

@@nakkadu That's not a good thing to say. Wait til you have to care for a child or an elderly parent. You only have to turn your back for a minute and if they can open a door, next thing they are walking in a road, or they've fallen outside or neighbours are helping them home. It's just humans living life as best they can.

@@TeddyBear-ii4yc Negligence pure and simple. You're correct she is the mother and it was her job to be looking after her children . You don't get to neglect a kid because you have another 🤦🏻‍♀️

while i know nothing can ever take away the pain, you made a best effort. you did the right thing. the loss of a toddler’s life is unfortunate, but the fact that you made an honest attempt to save them shows what kind of a person you are. i hope you are healing from the experience and i wish you all the best in your life :)

@@jazzylev @Jacob From All State its not something that will ever leave you. The doc said the child had died many hours previously but still a hard thing to accept. Also had to give my father CPR! Massive heart attack but he also died. 2 HORRENDOUS situations that still upset me 28+ years on! Its not something you ever get over!

That's so amazing!!! I cried because my youngest son is 4 and is also autistic, nonverbal, and has sensory processing disorder. I instantly thought of my son, and how this little guy's mom must have felt. My biggest fear is my son getting himself into a dangerous situation, and not having help or know what to do. It feels so good to know that there's still people out there looking out to help someone, as well as teaching their children to do right and get help when it's needed! Great work! ❤️ I know his mom is forever grateful for your quick actions!!!

It’s a truly wonderful thing this child was saved . That man is the true definition of a hero . That being said , who has a pool with zero barriers around it when you have a small child ?
