Was at a wave pool amusement park when I was a kid. Looking back the pool was overcrowded and everyone had inflatable mattresses. I got knocked off and went under, came up and a mat was over my head, swallowed water, then a wave hit me and being so crowded people were pushing me.
One thing they tell you is that if someone is drowning don't go near them. I demonstrated that clearly. When you're suffocating you kinda go berserk. I started pulling other people under and stepping on them to get out and three lifeguards had to restrain me. In the process I made like 5 other people almost drown.
But then I pressed charges for having a pool that was too overcrowded and almost drowning and didn't have to work for awhile.
Holy crap, how strong were you as a child to pull 5 people under water? Drowning is pretty scary though.
