Drowning--The real signs you need to know.

[Lucinda]

This is a very good example of drowning in plain sight, because people (if they paid any attention at all...) misread the situation as playing.



The boy was lucky and survived.

Holy F**K! I just learned that this happened in my country!

It would appear that this happened on January the 30th 2016 in a swimming hall in Helsinki, Finland. The mother of the child, an Estonian woman, apparently left her five-year old son in the children's pool while she went to the sauna with an adult, female friend. The friend also left her kid in the same pool. Whilst they were gone, the boy left the children's pool and made his way to the other pool where he nearly drowned (as seen in the video).
