Drowning...confusing question.

[Argranade]

I almost drowned when I was little, I kept drinking the water lol. *Blah*

I put my arms in the air and tried to doggy paddle and thank God my dad came to the rescue!

I read that if the water is cold enough and a child drowns in the water, the child can still be saved even tho the heart has stopped beating, it has somthing to do with the body tempature.

I don't wanna know if it hurts or not. O.o

Someone once said it was peaceful and that you heard bells or chimes....maybe it's when the oxygen runs out. Never been there, hard to know.

I almost Drowned 2 yrs ago, and well it sucked! My chest hurt for days, and my whole body just felt bad! It was not an experiance I would ever want to repeat!

Very lucky that you are here to speak of it today. So I guess from your experience it does hurt...something I wouldn't want to experience.

I almost drowned once when I was little. It was very painful to say the least. I still didn't know how to swim so I was trying to get into those little doughnut things. While I was trying to get in, the thing flipped over and put me underwater. I kept drinking the water and breathed it in a bit too. My mom pulled me out by my foot and saved my life. It was so scary! Even after that I was scared to go into the water. I finally learned how to conquer my fears and now I know how to swim!

I don't even want to think of drowning :S that would just be sad and i would think that it would be painfull. That would really hurt and suck.
