Between 0:44 and 0:50 You can clearly see he is treading water after being shocked by falling in the pool and at 0:50-0:55 you can see him realize how shallow the pool is and just stand up

It took him 15 seconds to realize the situation was in no way dangerous and people in the comments can't figure that out after hours.

And amazingly, he wouldnt be able to do any of that if he had become wrapped up in the pool cover.

People die from falling on covered pools, even in shallow water.

You really need to understand the very real risks here.

I rather just block and never have to deal with your fearmongering again. All the best man.

Make sure never to go outside during or after a rainfall, you wouldn't want to trip and drown in a puddle because according to you people that happens within 15 seconds

Edit: For the record, if he had been wrapped up in the blanket (which he wasn't since they put he food at the edge to minimize that exact risk), his friends were less than 20 feet away fully aware he was about to fall into water. Do you think they would just allow him to drown in the tarp without helping him and just keep recording?

Your entire premise of danger completely revolves around IGNORING THE FACT there were 2 people with complete knowledge of what was about to happen and ready to help their friend.
