There are always some nice stories about swimming pools. Everybody likes it. Everything is nice there. You meet people. You are doing good things for your body. But nobody is talking about bad things. When things go wrong in the pool. Did anything bad ever happen to you or somebody you know?

Well generally speaking pool is a nice place where you meet people and work out. Like any other place, it has its bad moments. Bad things happen. Some three months ago I was in the water and talking to some people when I heard a scream. There was a guy lying at the bottom of the pool. Lifeguards jumped in and pulled him out of the water. They gave him CPR and after few minutes he started to breathe again. They brought him back to life. It turned out that he had had a car accident few months before that and suffered from concussion. There must have been some hidden injury in his head because he passed out in the water. One minute he was swimming and after few seconds he just sank to the bottom of the pool. Fortunately everything ended well.
