Drowning is not what it looks like in movies.
Do you think you know the signs of someone drowning in distress? It is not what it may seem like in the Hollywood movies. It is depicted as flailing, yelling, and screaming for help, but in reality this is not the case. Drowning is often silent, quick, and deadly. Unless you are a professional that is aware of the signs of drowning, you may not recognize it.
Drowning is silent.
When a victim is drowning, they do not have the time, energy, or air to call for help. Often times, you will not see flailing of the arms or big splashes to get attention. Drowning victims are not loud, they wont make a sound. That is why drowning is quick and silent.
Manny was a lifeguard.
Throughout his career Manny was a lifeguard. He thought he knew all he needed to know about how to swim or help save a life from someone that was drowning, but unfortunately he did not. It was under the extreme circumstances that he was in that made the situation difficult. He was under stress, adrenalin, fatigue, and using all his endurance.
