He's creating the conditions he would feel if was actually drowning in open water. The point isn't learning to swim, its to learning to overcome the panic that comes with drowning.
I always had a fear of swimming. I’m now learning how to swim. To anyone else with this fear. The only way you will learn how to swim is to learn not to panic when the water takes you. Go with the flow. The moment you panic - you drown. Trust me when I say your body knows how to swim and your instincts will kick in when you RELAX. It’s all in your head. You can overcome this fear. And when you do - you will love the water! I promise!!
I have summer gym tomorrow and the swim teacher always makes me go to the deep end even though I tell her I can barely swim and if she tells me to go off the diving board I'm pulling a fucking Luke Skywalker and turning around and grabbing the board I aint drowning today no sir.
+Mario Quesada i hate the deep end and we had a sub so they moved me up to the deep end they said swim in the middle of the deep end and i almost drowned she didnt give a sht
dont do what this guy is saying, people who don't have the code in the brain (not knowing how to swim) wont be able to swim in any situation. You will just drown, however there are some cases of people learning how to swim during drowning but it's extremely rare.
we did this in the army for something called drown proofing. only difference was we had on our full gear ie. helmet, weapons, lbe, boots, and bdu`s. shot got real. the techniques here work. and should not be practiced alone due to muscle fatigue. and swallowing water
A decent technique for learning how to be relaxed in the water, especially when teaching people to swim. However, as a survival technique in deep water, not so great. You either have a good comfort level in deep water from learning that previously, or you don't. Drowning is not the place to learn.More useful tip would have been kick off shoes, if wearing any, remove pants or swim trunks if long leg style like yours, tie knots with both leg ends, and hold pants/trunks inverted, blowing air into the pants with each exhale. The trunks/pants provide buoyancy from the trapped air that is useful for keeping you from sinking and using less energy.
The most important thing is to get rid of your anxiety or fear of deep water. During my first time swimming our coach told us to keep in touch with the side of the pool then push ourselves in the water until our feet touch the floor. That way we get used to being in deeper water.
I also understand you, but its possible to get over that. Once you understand that we (human body) are buoyant, you will be half way there. Astronauts practice under water in the NASA pools in order to simulate being in space. Being underwater is the closest thing on earth to zero gravity. As for more practical exercises and drills, take a look at this youtube channel called, Swim without stress. Great exercises and drills on their channel.
That pool is a little too deep for my liking. I really want to learn how to swim, but unless I get over my fear of drowning, I will never end up in one. Just watching this video caused me some anxiety.
If you're going to drown, take your last bit of air then hold your breath. While underwater, you want to flip and make a formation like a starfish would. Once your head goes up, continue breathing and shout for help. CAUTION : DO NOT TRY MOVING YOUR HEAD FORWARD OR BACKWARD.
How I learned how to swim..... My dad threw me into deep water and my dad told me to swim... Well, let's just say, now I can jump off 10 metre diving boards just fine.
I had the worse fear of deep water more than anyone, and I taught myself how to swim. You can do it. Swimming in a pool, even in the deepest part, is surprising easy. It's the stroke techniques that are hard to master, and even when you don't master those, you will still move in the water and stay afloat. If you retain any fear and keep panicking, you will drown. Don't panic!!! That can't be stated enough. However, the movement he's doing at 3:06 touching his feet to the bottom is really hard to do because the water will keep bouncing you to the top. It is hard to top the bottom. The best thing is to take a swimming class at your local community college. That's a great start. Hold on to the ledge first and you will be swimming in no time. Just float and start kicking and you have it. Now ocean swimming is a different beast, and you shouldn't swim in it unless you have years worth of pool experience first. Even great swimmers drown in the ocean.
eLasVegas Lets see. Hmmm. It is not a myth. It's a fact. If ur in a Life or Death situation. You'd learn how to SURVIVE right then and there to stay alive! I don't have to be a swimmer to know. My teacher was a swimmer, my girlfriend is. Even they said the same.
Im a pretty strong swimmer, so heres my advice to new swimmers. Learn to back float, relax, and STAY CALM. The only time ive almost drowned was in Kaui, Hawaii. There where 6ft swells and one of them I didnt count the set right so when I went up for air I got struck by another wave. And this happend maybe 3 times. I finally got air and gasped and I started to panic. There was a strong rip current that sucked me out and I tried to swim against it, a stupid idead. Thank god I was on a boogie board because a wave took me in and I rode it. Worst experience of my life. Anyhow in a pool, if you can float, youre fine
Because of how I was taught, I find swimming underwater a lot easier than swimming on the surface of it. Which I guess gives me a slight advantage if I sink. But I'd prefer not to sink in the first place. I can do front crawl but haven't mastered the breathing. (But now I think of it front crawl is more of a competitive style of swimming that is unnecessary) I want to learn how to tread water and breast-stroke. I think if I know how to do those well I'll be a lot more confident in and around water.
+sean tyler just jump into the deep end I jumped into a 25 feet water at the lake I thought I was going to drown but I was just like "oh this is easy" and my friends just laughed at me for being scared trust me bro there's nothing to be scared of :)
Tip: Dont take one massive breath, take several SMALL breaths before you go under Tip 2: Put your chest above the water and THEN breath the water is pushing against your chest and will stop you from breathing in much air as you usually do.
I took my third swimming lesson today. Yesterday I drowned and the instructor got me out. Today she was just chatting with someone when I drifted far and drowned. a near by woman got me out. Now I'm just scared 😦I felt like I hated swimming suddenly.
very nice dude. Kudos for going thru all the trouble to make it for people like me. I am definitely gonna try this. One question though- When we exhale we usually tend to go down but if you have good amount of air in your lungs then that keeps you floating so according to you if I exhale while already in the water would that not make me go down further in the water??? :(
thank you oh so much for this video! I should have watched this before today as I was legit drowning and couldn't save myself from reaching above water. Once again, thank you so much!
the water in the ocean is more dense than pool water due to the salts dissolved in it. this gives you more buoyancy in the ocean. if you have a snorkel, you can lay face-down in the ocean and never sink.
Thank you for making this video. You know it's very useful. Many other videos are also helpful but they are edited with kinds of music. This video with no music but real sound helped me to familiarize myself when practice underwater.
Omg thank you sooo much! I personallu dont know how to swim on deep waters i start to panic when i noticed my feet not touching the ground. One time i went to the lake and i was on my back floating then i didnt realized i was in the middle of the lake which apparently was over 20ft below and im only 5ft tall. So i just floated abd used my arm to the edge and just closed my eyes... But i dont want to float i want to have other options and im so glad i found this. I will practice these techniques and hopefully i learn :) thank you again!
i dont know how to swim, i only knew how to swim underwater and float on my back and just recently i started learning treading on my own, but this is what i always do when i start since im a slow started it takes me long to get used to water... so this is what i do some drowning simulation to get rid of the fear of water then start letting go of the edge slowly but still wont go far except if i had someone who knows how to swim with me so i rest assured that i'd be rescued if i messed up x'D
So guys, yesterday was my first time I went for swimming. And the only thing my coach first taught me to learn this. And I did this a few times and my highest was 30 seconds in underwater without breath.
I love the part where it says " Practice the jumping technique to remove your fear" that was very helpful. I can swim but need to learn how to tred water without sinking :\ and getting tired while trying to tred water and again sinking.
I can never know why people get scared and freak out in pools, I mean if you sink you just kick the ground when you land and that momentum will just rise you up....
Well what might be common sense to an experienced swimmer wouldn't register in the mind of a person who thinks they might be sinking/drowning. Panic always causes confusion in the mind.
There was a kid in my neighbor Hood pool who drowned last year in the deep side. I cant swim. I can swim a little but other than that someone tell me how to swim in 5 ft water I'm scared. I can only swim in 4 ft., but that goes to my chin while I'm on my tipy toes and my head is up. My parents told Mr don't swim with your head up though because there's a 75% chance of drowning. Someone please teach me basics of swimming because I'm going to the pool next week today is Saturday and I'm going on Monday. when I mean teach I mean very useful & helpful tips. Thanks. 😊
I've watched this video, back some months ago. And I decided to watch it again.. because I fear of ever drowning again... I was in Rockford, Illinois. last year July, 2014 for the weekend of the 4th of july I went to magic waters. And there were 3 slides. So I went on the left side. And as I was about to Exit u had to fall in the pool. And I kept telling myself "I'm not ready... I'm not ready..." and I fell in... and I didn't touch the ground, so My eyes were closed. I never had a swimming lessons in my life so... I always told ppl I knew how to swim.. but I was unsure of myself after this had happened. I literally thought I was gonna lose my life, I was so scared afterwards. I Saw 2 lifeguards as I was jumping and grasping for air... and they were just standing there like they didn't see me. After, I finally found the wall to the ladder and .. then the 2 lifeguards had the nerve to tell me my Bikini was "coming a loose". I wanted to curse them out so bad.. I had to sit on the bench from gracefully saving my own life, and I was Literally choking and coughing on clorine. Worst summer at waterpark ever..
i was on the training and i start to drowing couse i was to tired we had very exhausting training(but somehow i survived).omg im too scared now i have training tomorow :O
The title said :"How to survive in deep water", but in deep ocean or river, there is no such thing as "stay in the edge of the pool, inhale you mouth", you even don't have enough time to breathe in.

I need to watch this over and over again,i do not know how to swim but i have fear on water. Looks easy on you,what if you have the tension? how to relax?
I am not sure what this how to survive in deep water video is teaching. To begin with, to exhale via both mouth and nostrils as recommended here while moving all 4 body parts is going to triple your exhalation of the very air that you need to keep floating and lead to panic as your nose & mouth go under the water. Secondly, I can get most girls/women to simply stop moving anything and tilt their head way back in order to breath while doing absolutely nothing. It looks like sitting under the water on a chair with the nostrils, mouth and eyes peeking above the water level. Most girls can easily hold this *fill your lungs and do nothing* but breath shallowly, for as long as 5 to 15 minutes. In salt water, not only can everyone can do this trick, irrespective of body density but the entire head is often quite high and comfortable above the water line.
Im glad i found this bc personally i know how to swim but i dont know how to float and i almost drowned yesterday..only reason i didnt die was bc i did the jump technique. The water was super deep and i thought i cud make it back to land but i cudnt see anywhere so luckly i knew about the jump but now i know how to float which is good
swaggman wilson me toooooo! I know how to swim but can't balance my self and almost drowned because I cannon balled into the 8ft. Couldn't get my head above water and breath, I honestly thought I as gonna die
Awesome. You explained the way for all the beginners, I liked it . Until we get more confidence, better to stay edge of the pool and practice . once we learn completely then we are good to practice at more deeper pools.
I remember when my Cousins and me were swimming in a pool, I didn't kno how to swim tht time lol, but I saw my older cousin jump in the 5 feet water thing and started to go swim, but my dumb 7 years old self jump in thinking I could swim to, stand at the bottom of the water, lol lucky my cousin save me tho.
Same thing happened to me lmao he jumped in and floated back up and I jumped in right after and I sank down helplessly and he reached down and pulled me up by my arm haha
Nice Video. Just what I needed. Answers my question as I'm learning to swim now. I'm finding out how much good exercise I missed out on all of these years.
I was not knowing how to swim before i was barely going to deep i was only in shaklow and i didnt even know how to float or swim normally so I practiced a lot and now i can go deep underwater and a pro swimmer so remember guys the key is yo practice...😁👍🏻
I learnt a bit of swimming, being able to swim under water for few seconds, float, dive etc, in 4-5 days on my own and after watching the videos such as above. I completely learned like a child without thinking I would look weird or something. I gained confidence first by practicing holding breath underwater in the children's part of the pool for hours. Once I had confidence being underwater I could then think instead of panic. So I practices for hours in a day and I can say I can swim a bit easily. Main thing is to go and just do it instead of watching videos everyday. Start with shallow water then bit by bit move into deeper water.
Last time I went into 7ft and sank and I didn't know how to swim so I walked underwater back to 5 ft
DeeTheBomb lmao
Lollllll
DeeTheBomb that's what I always do lol
That's awesome lol you walked your way underwater
Lmfaooo funny and smart
Everytime i watch videos like this I cant't breathe no joke I hold my breathe for some reason
we appreciate the struggle
chloe moretz thanks?
Lol the same with me
Asura lol sonebody give me an oxygen tank PLEASE

He's creating the conditions he would feel if was actually drowning in open water. The point isn't learning to swim, its to learning to overcome the panic that comes with drowning.
Finally, someone with common sense

I reckon that's right. I'm working on that at the age of 64yo. Wish my parents had bothered to help me in the 1960's.
It’s the panic that makes you drown. When you panic you forget how to swim and you just try to thrash and grab your way upwards which doesn’t work.
I always had a fear of swimming. I’m now learning how to swim. To anyone else with this fear. The only way you will learn how to swim is to learn not to panic when the water takes you. Go with the flow. The moment you panic - you drown. Trust me when I say your body knows how to swim and your instincts will kick in when you RELAX. It’s all in your head. You can overcome this fear. And when you do - you will love the water! I promise!!
I love the water so much but ive nearly drowned 2x and i dont want that to happen again tomorrow.. ur right, panic pulls me down

i wouldnt say extremely
Thats amazing if i do that welp see u later world
i learnt to swim cause my cousin threw me
in deep water
I've been applying these techniques to stay afloat and kick off from the deeper part of the pool, and it has helped me a lot. Thank you
I´m dealing with fear to the deep water and this video really helps. Thank you so much for sharing it!
Could you do a tutorial on how to open a door? I'm in a room and i have NO idea how to get out.
Wtf
See HowToBasic's channel, watch his very old videos.
Kick it with full force

right I can't tred for the life of me I've failed lvl 3 2x because of this
My biggest fear is drowning
+Fiona Barry mine is being stung by a jellyfish deep in the ocean
how tall was the pool, im 6'3 but i have a fear of deep pools.
8 feet.. but once you touch the floor with your feet, your fear would gone.
I swim in a 12 ft pool and it is so scary. And I can't touch the bottom cause it so deep.
Don't worry! If you think you're going to drown just lay on you back and you will float
My pool is 9 ft it has a diving board
If you're going to drown, take your last bit of air then hold your breath. While underwater, you want to flip and make a formation like a starfish would. Once your head goes up, continue breathing and shout for help.
CAUTION : DO NOT TRY MOVING YOUR HEAD FORWARD OR BACKWARD.
How I learned how to swim..... My dad threw me into deep water and my dad told me to swim... Well, let's just say, now I can jump off 10 metre diving boards just fine.
WTF? If you can stay near and grab on to the edge, you're not in need of surviving.
MrSidney9 I was wondering the same. Doesn't make any sense if they are at or with arm's reach of the edge.
What if you accidentally let go? Or somebody pushes you off.
PerfectLarry___ Call for angels to help you !
Just for practice

I did. But I chaned my instructor. I will soon have a fresh start :)
I will make sure to master this video so the drowing won't happen again.
thats actually kind of smart. if youre drowning, stop struggling and once you reach the bottom just jump straight up
Try doing that in the deep blue sea.
Well hopefully someone who doesnt know how to swim wouldnt be dumb enough to go that far into the ocean
Shit happens.
the pool I go to is like 15ft so I ain't reaching the bottom XD
am asumming you mean when stay in a pool , cause in a lake , river , is other history
When I swim I ignore breathing 10/11 times
I pass out 😍Moms are everything😍
"Inhale above the water" thanks for the advise
I liked the jumping practice :)
thnx for sharig
Man that was a good trailer to whatever that movie was called
Only exhale from your nose it lets you last longer

is it the same when you are in the ocean? 'cause im wondering how people do float easily in the surface of the ocean.
coz ocean has full of oxygen rather than in pool
+Vince Pious I taught the ocean water is dencer then a human body lol
its because if the amount of salt, that causes more buoyancy, you can look it up its kinda complicated
the water in the ocean is more dense than pool water due to the salts dissolved in it. this gives you more buoyancy in the ocean. if you have a snorkel, you can lay face-down in the ocean and never sink.
With your explanation, it seems like there's absolutely no excuse for people to ever drown in the ocean.

I love the part where it says " Practice the jumping technique to remove your fear" that was very helpful. I can swim but need to learn how to tred water without sinking :\ and getting tired while trying to tred water and again sinking.
so basically you dont automatically float
Yeah
insight001.If you want to float.you must do breaststroke to the floor
My dog taught me how to survive in the water. Thanks you , Yetti.
2019??? Anyone?
2058??!? aNyOnEE??
that made me more comfortable in the water thank you for your help that will help me so much on swimming in my pool on my own ty so much
I can never know why people get scared and freak out in pools, I mean if you sink you just kick the ground when you land and that momentum will just rise you up....
Well what might be common sense to an experienced swimmer wouldn't register in the mind of a person who thinks they might be sinking/drowning. Panic always causes confusion in the mind.
There was a kid in my neighbor Hood pool who drowned last year in the deep side. I cant swim. I can swim a little but other than that someone tell me how to swim in 5 ft water I'm scared. I can only swim in 4 ft., but that goes to my chin while I'm on my tipy toes and my head is up. My parents told Mr don't swim with your head up though because there's a 75% chance of drowning. Someone please teach me basics of swimming because I'm going to the pool next week today is Saturday and I'm going on Monday. when I mean teach I mean very useful & helpful tips. Thanks. 😊
just look up on youtube there's many videos
Kate Grover just remember that dead bodies float so if you go limp you should float just fine
yeah thats true but if you sink you dont always have your breath held and ready
I've watched this video, back some months ago. And I decided to watch it again.. because I fear of ever drowning again... I was in Rockford, Illinois. last year July, 2014 for the weekend of the 4th of july I went to magic waters. And there were 3 slides. So I went on the left side. And as I was about to Exit u had to fall in the pool. And I kept telling myself "I'm not ready... I'm not ready..." and I fell in... and I didn't touch the ground, so My eyes were closed. I never had a swimming lessons in my life so... I always told ppl I knew how to swim.. but I was unsure of myself after this had happened. I literally thought I was gonna lose my life, I was so scared afterwards. I Saw 2 lifeguards as I was jumping and grasping for air... and they were just standing there like they didn't see me. After, I finally found the wall to the ladder and .. then the 2 lifeguards had the nerve to tell me my Bikini was "coming a loose". I wanted to curse them out so bad.. I had to sit on the bench from gracefully saving my own life, and I was Literally choking and coughing on clorine. Worst summer at waterpark ever..
I'm not going to a pool I'm going to south France for water sports and has a deep river and I can't stay afloat plz help.
If you can't float just lay backwords you'll just float
ZEZLO did that and my head drowned
Tip: If you get tired then you can't reach the edge, Float on your back and slowly float to the edge (Search Backstroke)

Share this video... Thanks!
The title said :"How to survive in deep water", but in deep ocean or river, there is no such thing as "stay in the edge of the pool, inhale you mouth", you even don't have enough time to breathe in.
Thanks so much for the video. I really appreciate it! I'm going to try this out when I go on holiday but I'm so scared 😭
wonderful video. I went to a lacke this past weekend and practice as much as my body allowed me to.

I havent tried it yet but this looks by far the most convincing video on how to tread water
I could watch this everyday. Thanks for uploading.
I need to watch this over and over again,i do not know how to swim but i have fear on water. Looks easy on you,what if you have the tension? how to relax?
It'll be harder to float if you are muscular.
thank you for the video! I am scared of the deep end since I cannot tread water yet.
This video should be titled: How to get exposure to deep water. But you also need a swim buddy who knows how to swim and can help.
very nice..iam a learner ,fear of swimming ,very helpful clear video and explaining in text..post more thanx
I like the sounds. They are so soothing.
I am not sure what this how to survive in deep water video is teaching. To begin with, to exhale via both mouth and nostrils as recommended here while moving all 4 body parts is going to triple your exhalation of the very air that you need to keep floating and lead to panic as your nose & mouth go under the water. Secondly, I can get most girls/women to simply stop moving anything and tilt their head way back in order to breath while doing absolutely nothing. It looks like sitting under the water on a chair with the nostrils, mouth and eyes peeking above the water level. Most girls can easily hold this *fill your lungs and do nothing* but breath shallowly, for as long as 5 to 15 minutes. In salt water, not only can everyone can do this trick, irrespective of body density but the entire head is often quite high and comfortable above the water line.
Thank you for the kind advice,my son has liked it and needs this advice for level 8 thank you👍👍👍
Im glad i found this bc personally i know how to swim but i dont know how to float and i almost drowned yesterday..only reason i didnt die was bc i did the jump technique. The water was super deep and i thought i cud make it back to land but i cudnt see anywhere so luckly i knew about the jump but now i know how to float which is good
swaggman wilson me toooooo! I know how to swim but can't balance my self and almost drowned because I cannon balled into the 8ft. Couldn't get my head above water and breath, I honestly thought I as gonna die
Thank you for showing this i've learned a lot of your video... 😄😄
this is great now you've thogthe me to get over my fear of the
water thank you .p.s I subscribed
ok i will practice
Awesome. You explained the way for all the beginners, I liked it . Until we get more confidence, better to stay edge of the pool and practice . once we learn completely then we are good to practice at more deeper pools.
Thats cool definitely going to try this because tommarow im going swimming and am learning to swim on the deep end of the poo
poo...lol
Tomi Bizjak I posted this last year I can swim lol
Thank you. I’ve learned more in this video then in my swimming lessons
Thanks for the life saving tips because i only know how to swim in 2-5 feet water.
You helped me learn to swim. you saved my life
Shaq has no problem with this
I remember when my Cousins and me were swimming in a pool, I didn't kno how to swim tht time lol, but I saw my older cousin jump in the 5 feet water thing and started to go swim, but my dumb 7 years old self jump in thinking I could swim to, stand at the bottom of the water, lol lucky my cousin save me tho.
Same thing happened to me lmao he jumped in and floated back up and I jumped in right after and I sank down helplessly and he reached down and pulled me up by my arm haha
Nice Video. Just what I needed. Answers my question as I'm learning to swim now. I'm finding out how much good exercise I missed out on all of these years.
Sometimes, i try to pretend to drown to prank the life guards 😂😂😂
I was not knowing how to swim before i was barely going to deep i was only in shaklow and i didnt even know how to float or swim normally so I practiced a lot and now i can go deep underwater and a pro swimmer so remember guys the key is yo practice...😁👍🏻
I learnt a bit of swimming, being able to swim under water for few seconds, float, dive etc, in 4-5 days on my own and after watching the videos such as above.
I completely learned like a child without thinking I would look weird or something. I gained confidence first by practicing holding breath underwater in the children's part of the pool for hours. Once I had confidence being underwater I could then think instead of panic. So I practices for hours in a day and I can say I can swim a bit easily.
Main thing is to go and just do it instead of watching videos everyday. Start with shallow water then bit by bit move into deeper water.
It's not that simple when you're panicking
You have just gave me sum good info how to swim thanks very much...
