Suddenly falling into a cold water can make your heart stop. It happened quite a few times. Does not matter how good a swimmer you are if you're dead the second you're in a water.

A few years ago a slightly drunk Cambridge academic tried to pee in Cam, slipped and fell. Died instantly when his heart stopped of a shock from a cold water.

@toms3870 no, it was winter, pretty cold, probably even sub-zero, but around mid-day, AFAIR. The thing here is the sudden cold - you won't die from shock if you expect a cold water, but if it comes as a surprise - bad luck.

@toms3870 before that case in Cambridge I would not have believed in such a scenario either.

@toms3870 not really, according to people who knew him, just enough to think it is a good idea to pee in Cam. I did the same while absolutely sober...

@toms3870 good point

@ccook92 he was pulled out immediately, already dead... But I can imagine something like this happening in this case, with nobody around. They started searching for body too late, can well be in the sea now.

@metalicminer6231 nobody cares what tinfoil hats think. Nothing is more disgusting and pathetic than antivaxxers.

@Taylor23890 not necessarily, not all drowned bloat and float.

@metalicminer6231 nope, you're a personification of Dunning-Kruger. You have no faintest idea of what you're babbling about. Next time, avoid parading your ignorance in public spaces where you can get exposed and humiliated by experts and scientists who are too enraged by tinfoil hat lot vomiting their bile all over the place to simply let you be. I recommend you to stay away from this subject and never again dare to have any opinions on vaccines, immunology, virology and microbiology. It's all way above your cognitive capacity.
