I’m with you on this one. A panic stricken adult could pull you down with them. I’d sure as heck throw every floaty I could find their way and I’d feel damned guilty the rest of my life, but I’d be very reluctant to go. If it were a kid though... I’d go for it. I wouldn’t be able to live with myself if I let a kid drown.
I'd agree except for the fact that there were three cops. Three cops couldn't help a drowning man? Something's wrong here.
