deadly swimming pools!?

Featured Replies

recently a little girl was swimming, but she giot stuck in a drain.

 

 

 

she was rescued, but the power of the drain was so significant it dislocated her intestines.

 

 

 

after major surgery she will need to fed with an iv tube the rest of her life.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

BE CAREFUL!

LOL invite? PM me :)

I'm sorry if this is true but I just laughed "my-arse-off".

 

 

 

The title, combined with what you wrote is hilarious... Sucked in a drain? Impossible. Considering she would have been around the age of 8 at the youngest to be swimming un aided and unwatched making her around 4ft?... No way you can get stuck in a drain... And what the hell is the a huge uncovered drain doing in a swimming pool?

 

 

 

Sorry, this story is just plain wrong and the only "dangers" in a swimming pool is the shallow end after diving in and smacking your head :wall: .

.retired, as of the 1st January 2008.

I just saw a girl on the news that had tripped over a loose tile on the sidewalk an died.

 

 

 

DON'T GO OUTSIDE!!!!eleven! YOU MIGHT DIE!!!1!

I'm sorry, but that story just made me laugh my [wagon] off.

 

 

 

Besides how the hell do you get sucked into a drain? Wouldn't it also drain all the water out at the same time if it was open and big enough to suck someone in?

 

 

 

I also heard the massaging jets in a pool can have so much pressure that it can break your ribs and possibly rip you apart.

Mayn U wanna be like me but U can't be me cuz U ain't got ma swagga on.

if it is true, then her bathing suit most likely got stuck in the drain and she couldn't get it out with her own strength, i've had it happen when I was younger, except I was able to pull myself out

It's possible. A boy of av. 9 years old got stuck in a pipe in a similar accident here in Quebec 2-3 years ago. He entered a pipe that was left ungridded by accident and he got stuck at a pipe junction, both his legs got cut.

Reminds me of a certain story by Chuck Palahnuik >.> (not suitable at all for a G-rated forum, however xD)

:shock: This is just mind boggling. How the hell does several feet of your intestines just get ripped out? And why is there a drain that powerful there? A very odd accident this was.

Ghost: I am prejudice towards ignorance, so that would explain why I appear to be so.

Wow. This is actually true?!

Listen to the mighty words of Bloodredsword.

Tip it MGC Xbox live leader board!

I feel for the child, I really do but :lol: How can you manage that?

 

I feel the same way. Sort of.

 

It's sad that this happened, and I hope the child will be alright.

 

But I still laugh. Not really at what happened, but mainly at your post.

I think the reason I laughed so much is partly to do with how Sword wrote the opening post and the title, I mean "deadly swimming pools" sounds like a bad horror movie.

Wow. This is actually true?!

 

 

 

Now I feel terrible.

It is still just media fear-mongering. Probably is considered a seasonal story also.

Most public swimming pools have huge drains on the side.

 

 

 

About 20 people a year max die from this. Their foot either gets caught by suction of one of the smaller drains that are at the bottom, or they play too close to the huge drains, say getting their feet stuck. I remember seeing this on the news like 2-3 years ago.

well today at 11:30 am 14 years ago i was born.. wo0t!!!
At 11:30 you should start holding your head underwater wo0t!!!
Stop acting such a moron.

Man, that' messed up. I feel sorry for her...

 

 

 

I used to dive down in pools and touch the drain... I don't think I will ever do that again.
