Chapter 917: Drowning person Chapter 917: Drowning person Students might ask, can people drown in such shallow waters on the beach?

The answer is definitely yes.

Drowning often doesn’t depend on whether one can swim or how deep the water is, as physiological conditions or psychological factors can cause people to enter a state of extreme panic. In such situations, it’s simply not possible to rationally address the problem.

Some people can’t touch the bottom even when the water is only up to their chests, and there are even strong swimmers who have drowned in swimming pools, and others who have drowned in bathtubs.

Therefore, at the beach, even though the water near the shore isn’t very deep, fear of the ocean and strong tidal forces can still lead to numerous drownings.

Lu Ban immediately stood up and looked towards Amber and Red Leaf, noticing that the two girls were also somewhat bewilderedly staring at the sea.

Somewhat relieved, he approached them.

Ahead on the beach, a man and a woman were trying to walk towards the sea. Further away, among the rising and falling waves, a small figure was bobbing in the surf.

“Help, help!”

The woman on the beach screamed, turning her head to see a lifeguard who had been slacking off on the lookout tower. He was now belatedly blowing his whistle and holding a lifebuoy.

“Don’t go, everyone come back!”

The lifeguard, a well-built fellow with dark skin and dyed yellow hair, shouted in heavily accented English. He pulled the man and the woman back.
