This does not change the fact that there are approximately 20 million penguins in the world and 500,000 residents in Malta. So if penguins invaded Malta it would be 1human for every 40 penguins
i’m a lifeguard and my water park has a wave pool. some parents get really pissed when i tell them they have to be in the water with their kid (who’s under 7) but i’d rather deal with a mad parent than cpr on a 5 year old.
I almost drowned in one of these as a kid, if it wasnt for some buff slovakian guy who noticed and got me out i wouldnt be writing this…. There were 3 lifeguards just talking to each other on a ledge like 30 meters away
I had the lifeguard angrily blowing his whistle and pointing at me but didn't budge from his chair 😂 thankfully my brothers were with me and stopped me from dying
I saved a grown man from drowning in a wave pool. He had a life jacket but it seemed to not be supporting him or smth, and even if it was he was panicking and the lifeguards were doing nth, so i swam over to him with a floatie so he cpuld hold onto it. I was like 10-12 yrs old. Later he came over to me and my family and thanked me with his two sons who looked to be a bit younger than me. At this time i had just passed the life saving level of swimming or whatever so we had practiced how to save drowing people, but bc i was tiny and he was a grown man, i thought it was smarter to use a floatie. Even if he would've been okay, im still glad i did that bc i wouldnt be able to live with myself if he wasnt okay.
Well done!! I'm glad they came over to thank you, honestly if I almost drowned and a kid saved me I'd be pretty embarrassed so it's cool that he put his pride aside and let you know what it meant to him :-) well done
I nearly drowned in a huge wave pool as a kid because my dumb ass wanted to see if I could swim to the far/deep end (where no one else was) and touch the wall. The whistle blew and the waves started up suddenly and I couldn't keep my head above water lol No one noticed me, but I eventually made my way back to the shallow area.
US: only the people who can’t swim wears a life vest Korea: EVERYONE MUST WEAR A LIFE VEST OR YOU WILL FACE DOOM Edit: I changed kids to people because there is no shame if you are an adult who can’t swim :)
"I've tried to be fair with you fairytale creatures. Now my patience has reached its end! Tell me or I'll.." "No not the button! Not my gumdrop button"
They aren't lol. Life saving jackets, life guards all around and the wave ends shortly after, if you drown on these you weren't even supposed to be there
I was one of those kids who almost drowned, and I heard a lovely woman’s voice behind me say “are you okay?” And I was like “glub glub NO glub glub” and I just felt these hands on my back just PUSH me into the shallow end, where I dragged myself up like a survivor of a shipwreck. I looked around to thank her and never saw her. I believed in angels for a solid 8 years after that.
I almost drowned in these when i was younger. My mom was away so i was there alone. It didn't stop for 15 minutes. I'm glad some random stranger held me when my legs were giving up.. thanks, whoever you are.
No, one time I was at a wave pool. The wave pool malfunctioned and the waves were so much bigger than they were supposed to. One kid was drowning, a lifeguard had to save him. There were so many people crying. That was fr terrifying. 😅
For people wondering where this is, it's in South Korea. Korean. At the start of the short, the operator says "감사합니다. 즐거운 시간 되시고요~" which means "Thank you. Hope you all have a lovely time~".
I remember going to the deep part in a wave pool where the waves are bigger as a child, slipped and fell into the water. Not knowing how to swim i grabbed onto the first thing i could, a mans trouser. And yep you guessed it, pulled it right off.... I escaped undetected though i regret my choices to this day...
Once I was(like 6 yo, I have only that memory from that day )going downstairs in a lake (big concrete downstairs) and suddenly,no more stairs, I went into the water and started panicking,there were a couple of teens and I pulled someone's swimsuit bra and that helped me to step back on stairs , they were annoyed but I was saved,then going back to my mom's table I stepped on a burning cigarette, and when I found her,a soldier was flirting with her... I could have died that day, because only those girls where there
i remember when i was like 11 at holiday world, me and my cousin (same age) were in a wave pool. iv never been a great swimmer, and was scared of the water up until i was 5. so we get in, wait for the wave, and at the 4th wave i went under & couldnt get up. this guy, probably in his 40s picked me up and said "this anyones kid?" i think about him every day.
I went to holiday world with my husband and his family and I've never swam in salt water before, I was struggling so hard to stay above water I the wave pool that the moment I went down my husband dragged me up and I just coughed up so much water because I panicked and we went to the water slides instead.
That one kid just casually swimming away from it who just keeps swimming even after the wave goes over him completely. Dude is so f****** chill. It's amazing.
All people who can swim can cause ocean waves are stronger even if ocean waves are smaller im saying from experience so yes you can survive if you know how to swim
Hi, US resident here. I have been in a couple wave pools here in the states and they were all essentially exactly like this. So yes, wave pools in the US do compare. Hope this helps.
@@yorshvences341 Doesn’t it just?!?! I truly cannot imagine PAYING people to let you do this. It’s beyond me. I was in a near-fatal accident on the ocean beach and I came close enough to dying to tell me messing around in ANY water is a huge mistake. Too many things to go wrong.
@@blepies1692 I completely agree!! I had enough of it in my eyes, my nose, my mouth and into my right leg after it was torn open in the surf. I am very careful about what water I’ll play.
There’s a thing called body surfing that me and my friends love to do all the time at our beach where your body is the surf board and you ride the wave (would recommend ITS SO FUN)
Don't worry. Every one wearing air jacket. Its a must! Whats more is there are very long streams of that wave pool. Keep on flowing in the stream on a swimming tube , then a big waves keep coming. Its sooooo much fun. But never saw anyone drawn till now. Never🤭
I get *why* wave pools aren’t this big because it’d be a pain from everyone drowning, (I mean, look at the sheer amount of comments with their near-drowning experiences) but I would love to swim in this
I didn’t almost drown in one of these, I was completely unconscious under water and almost died and had to be rushed to the hospital and almost dry drowned again same night.
One time I went to a wave pool and it had a malfunction like this it was a huge ahh wave it basically was a tsunami or something like that and I was in the middle of the pool with my mom and uncle and the wave came and me, my uncle and my mom tried swimming away but we couldn't make it to the land bc we were so far away, then I started floating away to the front where the tsunami was and my mom and uncle didn't notice because they were trying to swim back and they thought I was swimming with them so I was trying to swim back to them but I was so tired from swimming earlier I couldn't, so I was heading straight to the tsunami and I was so scared for my life, I started yelling help and screaming and my mom noticed aswell as a lifeguard so the lifeguard jumped in and my mom swam towards me and we all swam away from the tsunami but I was so scarred from that I thought I was gonna drown. Edit: we didn't make it to the land so we dived under the wave btw.
Google is free. Type in inner tube for swimming pool, that’s what the donut shaped pool floats are called because they look like inner tubes. Like the ones inside bicycle tires.
Theyre all too close. Ive been in these pool once and when the wave hits you, you'll swirl and hit any other people around you edit : i forgot abt this comment but now that i see it again they wore floaties / jackets, i guess it's safer cs they could ride the wave or at least not get drown in it for long - not like i did 😅
Exactly, also the fact that people don’t give a shit if they piss in these types of pools so you could be drinking that shit. I even saw literal shit lol
@@noanime4557 Waves get as high as 2m there, so to prevent accidents, guests near the front are required to wear life vests. Or else you get kicked out. It’s fine not to wear one at the back where there’s no risk of drowning.
So I went on one of those somewhere near Disney land I dislocated my shoulder and I got a huge scratch on the same shoulder and I had to stay in the hospital for 2 days and I literally couldn’t do anything for like 3 months so and I was near the end like middleish end so BE CAREFUL
You’re talking about a different one. You can see how the break zone of the wave is mostly clear of people except for the few trying to ride the wave in, life guards are waiting already in the water, this is just how their wave pool is lol.
The one your talking about looked like a tsunami with a guy on an orca whale surfing over human bodies quite majestic but still messed up how people got hurt
@Random Autonomous Drone Pilot This ignorant "America makes best" "Made in USA" attitude is hot garbage when all the "american" car brands are made overseas and fucking suck.
I live in daygo and they turn my favorite water park into Sesame Street place IT SUCKS like yea they made dry rides but they put more attention into the kiddie parts the wave pool used to be drowning people and now it doesn’t even wave on one side 🙄
Wave pools actually have settings ranging from 1-9 Standard is around 3-4 but sometimes water parks have employee nights where life jackets are required and they ramp the wave pool up to 9
Bro what are you talking about I went to Tyfoon logoon in Disney and me and my friend was in the wave pool and the wave came then (we were in the shallow water) and me and him did two backflips then I hit my knee on the floor and it’s still there.
This just give me flashbacks when i was a kid around 6-7 yrs old, i was drifting in the front (going straight to the front) and i can't do anything but shout "help" but the music made it hard and when i give up someone shouted "there's a kid going straight in the wave" and the life guard finally notice so as my parents and immediately shout dowm everything and rescue me as soon as possible after that i never went to any swimming pool with a wave (also this happen at night that's why they didn't notice me)
Story time: When I was 11, I went on a family day trip to Big Surf in Linn Creek, Missouri, they had a wave pool that lasted 15 minutes. I got into a seemingly regular pool, not knowing the "wave pool" would start soon. Once it did, the waves just kept coming and coming, when I'd bob back up, I watched the huge red "clock of death" ticking down the minutes, seconds felt like hours! I ended up being able to make it to the side of the pool in between waves, rode one of the waves up and grabbed the edge and pulled myself out. There were lifeguards all around! My mom and stepdad were somewhere else, I hadn't told them that's what I was doing, still shouldn't have been left unattended at 11 years old though. No one came to my aid, I was choking, vomiting, so physically exhausted I could hardly move. Eventually, I was able to pick myself up and find my parents after the longest search of my life. I told my parents what happened and wanted to leave, but my other siblings weren't ready to go, they told me to "just relax", so I laid on a lounger and fell asleep for I'm not even sure how long, 2-3 hours, I would guess, we spent almost the whole day there. I'm a very pale redhead and had the worst sunburn I've ever had to date (I'm 29 now), I had 2nd degree burns all over my body. Needless to say, fuck wave pools and fuck neglectful parents lol BUT, with all that being said, I went on to take swimming classes when I could afford them myself at 17 years old, I can now stay calm and hold my breath for almost 3 minutes, as well as being a strong swimmer, of course! A blessing in disguise is what I call that day, gotta make the best of shitty situations! 💛
@BlueThunderboltsiren wonderful question! I absolutely would, I haven't seen a wave pool since, but I also never sought them out, I will have to look them up and see if I can find one near me this summer and give it a go again! What an awesome idea, I don't know why that never occurred to me, I'm excited to rise to that challenge! I may even travel to Big Surf to give the same pool a try, I've since moved away, it'd be a great opportunity for a fun adventure!
@Personwtcats yes, it's great to see them exercising proper safety! I wish I'd had a life jacket that day, it would've been an entirely different outcome! Love your username btw, I have my 6 kitties indoors and feed 8 strays outdoors 😊
Been on a few before. The waves get a lot more tame at the end of the pool so I'd just start there and move forwards slowly to build confidence and see where your capabilities lie. Have fun!
one day i thought it was a cool idea to go to the deep end (at the time i was 4,2) and when the wave came i got swept. thank god me and my sister were there. if she wasnt there id probably drown. love ya sis!!
There’s one in Wisconsin that has bigger waves than that. I think it’s called Poseidon’s Rage and it’s literally a giant wave that hits you, and I mean huge! So I think we can compare lol Edit: It’s in Wisconsin Dells
@@daedae556 Lol I know right! I remember swimming up to the front until I saw the wave and tried swimming away from it. It was much faster than me of course lol. My dad caught me as I was being thrown around under the water 😂
@@pingupinga7688 ummm that's not true all of them are wearing life vest because that's the rule of the wave pool and the company gets punished if they don't
@@pingupinga7688 another reason of wearing life vest is because you could get injured. as you could see wave pool is very crowded and could get injured easily by another person those injuries could faint you, unable to swin such as getting your head hitted hard or etc if you don't have a life vest you'll sink and could lead to serious accident
Dude I was 18 when I almost drowned in one of these. I was trying to keep my niece above water, but we were so far up that it was right where the waves break and are stronger. I could not get my feet under me because of how shallow it was. And then a wave took my glasses and I was left blind. I was just trying to keep my niece up and get a single breath in. No lifeguard helped. It was a group of two random older woman who saw it and ran down. Grabbed my niece and the other helped me stand (I couldn't stand by myself at this point). We eventually found my glasses, but my legs were completely torn up from the rough material and it took me like 10 minutes to get my breathing right. My niece did not cry once, because I managed to keep her above the water the entire time. (She had just turned 3 at this time)
As a korean how is a dual nationality as korean and American and lived about 10 years in both countrys This is so true Korean wave pools are stupidly high for no reson

I get *why* wave pools aren’t this big because it’d be a pain from everyone drowning, (I mean, look at the sheer amount of comments with their near-drowning experiences) but I would love to swim in this

One time I went to a wave pool and it had a malfunction like this it was a huge ahh wave it basically was a tsunami or something like that and I was in the middle of the pool with my mom and uncle and the wave came and me, my uncle and my mom tried swimming away but we couldn't make it to the land bc we were so far away, then I started floating away to the front where the tsunami was and my mom and uncle didn't notice because they were trying to swim back and they thought I was swimming with them so I was trying to swim back to them but I was so tired from swimming earlier I couldn't, so I was heading straight to the tsunami and I was so scared for my life, I started yelling help and screaming and my mom noticed aswell as a lifeguard so the lifeguard jumped in and my mom swam towards me and we all swam away from the tsunami but I was so scarred from that I thought I was gonna drown.
Edit: we didn't make it to the land so we dived under the wave btw.
I almost drowned in a wave pool. Had to cling on to some random person’s inner tube till I caught my breath.
inner tube?!
what the heck does that mean 💀
The inside of somebody’s floaty😂
...i-inner tube?
Google is free. Type in inner tube for swimming pool, that’s what the donut shaped pool floats are called because they look like inner tubes. Like the ones inside bicycle tires.
the lifeguard working their first job: 😀
Theyre all too close. Ive been in these pool once and when the wave hits you, you'll swirl and hit any other people around you
edit : i forgot abt this comment but now that i see it again they wore floaties / jackets, i guess it's safer cs they could ride the wave or at least not get drown in it for long - not like i did 😅
Plus the ground is normally like sandpaper if you slide along it
That’s the best part is hitting people
thats the fun part lol
Exactly, also the fact that people don’t give a shit if they piss in these types of pools so you could be drinking that shit. I even saw literal shit lol

Welcome to Asia, where even we operate on "ah there's plenty of us anyway"
Why do they wear swimming gear can't they swim ?
High likeliehood of drowning, wave pools are notorious for it here in the U.S.
@@noanime4557 Waves get as high as 2m there, so to prevent accidents, guests near the front are required to wear life vests. Or else you get kicked out. It’s fine not to wear one at the back where there’s no risk of drowning.

When you realize this thing actually malfunctioned and injured many people
You’re talking about a different one. You can see how the break zone of the wave is mostly clear of people except for the few trying to ride the wave in, life guards are waiting already in the water, this is just how their wave pool is lol.
The one your talking about looked like a tsunami with a guy on an orca whale surfing over human bodies quite majestic but still messed up how people got hurt

Frrrr
Same I would've died. I already can swim and I'm short
I’m korean and we all wear life vest to be safe
If someone doesn’t wear, the safety guard stops the person from entering.

The great Tohoku Earthquake and Tsunami in 2011 was proof of this.
Wave pools actually have settings ranging from 1-9
Standard is around 3-4 but sometimes water parks have employee nights where life jackets are required and they ramp the wave pool up to 9
Bro what are you talking about I went to Tyfoon logoon in Disney and me and my friend was in the wave pool and the wave came then (we were in the shallow water) and me and him did two backflips then I hit my knee on the floor and it’s still there.

That guy probably thinking *Mistake mistake mistake*
He wasn't trying to swim away. He was trying to swim with the wave.
It be like that😂
This just give me flashbacks when i was a kid around 6-7 yrs old, i was drifting in the front (going straight to the front) and i can't do anything but shout "help" but the music made it hard and when i give up someone shouted "there's a kid going straight in the wave" and the life guard finally notice so as my parents and immediately shout dowm everything and rescue me as soon as possible after that i never went to any swimming pool with a wave (also this happen at night that's why they didn't notice me)
I’m glad ur safe

Story time:
When I was 11, I went on a family day trip to Big Surf in Linn Creek, Missouri, they had a wave pool that lasted 15 minutes. I got into a seemingly regular pool, not knowing the "wave pool" would start soon. Once it did, the waves just kept coming and coming, when I'd bob back up, I watched the huge red "clock of death" ticking down the minutes, seconds felt like hours! I ended up being able to make it to the side of the pool in between waves, rode one of the waves up and grabbed the edge and pulled myself out. There were lifeguards all around! My mom and stepdad were somewhere else, I hadn't told them that's what I was doing, still shouldn't have been left unattended at 11 years old though. No one came to my aid, I was choking, vomiting, so physically exhausted I could hardly move. Eventually, I was able to pick myself up and find my parents after the longest search of my life. I told my parents what happened and wanted to leave, but my other siblings weren't ready to go, they told me to "just relax", so I laid on a lounger and fell asleep for I'm not even sure how long, 2-3 hours, I would guess, we spent almost the whole day there. I'm a very pale redhead and had the worst sunburn I've ever had to date (I'm 29 now), I had 2nd degree burns all over my body. Needless to say, fuck wave pools and fuck neglectful parents lol BUT, with all that being said, I went on to take swimming classes when I could afford them myself at 17 years old, I can now stay calm and hold my breath for almost 3 minutes, as well as being a strong swimmer, of course! A blessing in disguise is what I call that day, gotta make the best of shitty situations! 💛
I will ask out of curiosity, but would you ever give wave pools another go now that you're older if you had the chance to or no? Just curious.
@BlueThunderboltsiren wonderful question! I absolutely would, I haven't seen a wave pool since, but I also never sought them out, I will have to look them up and see if I can find one near me this summer and give it a go again! What an awesome idea, I don't know why that never occurred to me, I'm excited to rise to that challenge! I may even travel to Big Surf to give the same pool a try, I've since moved away, it'd be a great opportunity for a fun adventure!
I’m sorry about what happened to you but it looks like the people in this video are all wearing life jackets so it is safer.
@Personwtcats yes, it's great to see them exercising proper safety! I wish I'd had a life jacket that day, it would've been an entirely different outcome! Love your username btw, I have my 6 kitties indoors and feed 8 strays outdoors 😊
It taught ur dumb as how to swim at least lol
Can't compare my ah I've seen way bigger in American u would swear it's a tsunami

That’s fair but there has been several deaths from this shit malfunctioning seems fun but I’d be deathly afraid
Been on a few before. The waves get a lot more tame at the end of the pool so I'd just start there and move forwards slowly to build confidence and see where your capabilities lie. Have fun!
I have went to one of these wave pools and didnt drown
one day i thought it was a cool idea to go to the deep end (at the time i was 4,2) and when the wave came i got swept. thank god me and my sister were there. if she wasnt there id probably drown. love ya sis!!

There’s one in Wisconsin that has bigger waves than that. I think it’s called Poseidon’s Rage and it’s literally a giant wave that hits you, and I mean huge! So I think we can compare lol

@@pingupinga7688 another reason of wearing life vest is because you could get injured. as you could see wave pool is very crowded and could get injured easily by another person those injuries could faint you, unable to swin such as getting your head hitted hard or etc if you don't have a life vest you'll sink and could lead to serious accident

Dude I was 18 when I almost drowned in one of these. I was trying to keep my niece above water, but we were so far up that it was right where the waves break and are stronger. I could not get my feet under me because of how shallow it was. And then a wave took my glasses and I was left blind. I was just trying to keep my niece up and get a single breath in. No lifeguard helped. It was a group of two random older woman who saw it and ran down. Grabbed my niece and the other helped me stand (I couldn't stand by myself at this point). We eventually found my glasses, but my legs were completely torn up from the rough material and it took me like 10 minutes to get my breathing right. My niece did not cry once, because I managed to keep her above the water the entire time. (She had just turned 3 at this time)
As a korean how is a dual nationality as korean and American and lived about 10 years in both countrys

Like 90% of water parks have these
It's training for the real thing
They want you dead thats why
