Fun fact. Male drowning victims float face down. Female drowning victims float face up.

Yeah, but is it a natural drowning? Water knows when the drowning is natural or not.
papasmurf1118
Yeah it's completely 100% GMO-free all natural

Get a little fat, I'm very buoyant.

the floor is actually being dead.
RacialSlur
As a lifeguard I can confirm this.

You joke, but: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgASxPh-xqU not satire. I will count on hearing Liam Neeson's voice when I'm drowning.

Lol as if water has cognitive abilities. water says "Oh - dead mans float ... yep they are dead. ok nothing to see here . let's move on

This life tip suggests that water is somehow related to the bear family. Play dead and it'll stop.

Actually, playing dead doesn't fool the bear often. Just its the best option because you ain't out running a bear.
Qualtagh
Bears are like 70% water.

In a way, this is actually not bad advice. "Dead man's float" is a thing for people who aren't dead.
buttcreambandit
Ya people don't understand if you remain calm and regulate your breathing you will float just gine

People only float when their lungs are full of air. If you drown, your lungs are full of water, so you sink. You might start floating when 1

Yup lay horizontal and you should float unless your body fat is like 10%

If fat makes you float then I should like hover 6 feet above the water.

Tense muscles have less buoyancy than relaxed muscles. Aka dead mans float. In a way this is true, but if you're in a rip current, SWIM

-SIDEWAYS, for the love of fuck do not fight against the current, swim parallel to the shore, otherwise you're fighting a losing battle.
SomethingVulgar
Even sideways is sometimes impossible, when the rip is really strong, swimming out can often be the only route to safety.

I was always taught to swim about 60 degrees off of directly towards the shore.
