  1. Hitting like, getting a cup, before the skipper decides to raise steam from the coffee machine, launch video.

  2. If a panicking man in the process of drowning grabs onto you, the best mean of escape is taking a deep breath and dive - he will release you almost immediately with each dozen appendages he was grabbing you. However, letting him grab onto you might give him a minute or so of air, so if you can afford enough energy you can keep him aliver for a few minutes this way and maybe clears his head. I had to do it once for like 5 minutes on a beach in a somewhat rought weather (in the summer warm Black Sea) until the real lifeguard (God bless him) arrived. This was the hardest FIVE YEARS in my life. Also, getting a panicking man into a canoe or similar small boat requires FIRST tossing something floatable to him (a 1 liter soda bottle is enough and about the only reason one is allowed to toss plastic into water) or if it is not possible, knock him out by the happier end of your paddle.
