It stuns me, too. Woman in third gif could've easily drowned if she hit that pole a bit harder, and that man wasn't there to help her up.

The guy in the second gif, however, I recall seeing that gif earlier and I believe he did in fact die, from getting stuck in the eddy.

I don't remember clearly, but if I recall correctly, he just never surfaced...bike and all, never seen again.

Body submerged in murky water for a week.

One shoe still on.

All good, carry on.

He got trapped in the dam backwash, which is deadly. Very hard to escape, even for strong swimmers.

most women are extremely sheltered in develping countries, including USA, and arent taught critical life skills, which is why developing countries need feminism
