    Everybody is a strong swimmer until they are:

    • unconscious
    • exhausted
    • in cold water
    • disorientated
    • injured
    • in strong current
    • entangled
    • trying to save another person
    • intoxicated
    • not a strong swimmer

    Yeah, but other than that everybody is a strong swimmer.

      And swimming some miles in a pool isn’t really comparable to the way home those people would have. I am a strong swimmer. But I’m not crazy.
