If one synchronized swimmer drowns, do the rest have to drown too?

yer otherwise they are not synchronised

i think they are both handed because if they were only one part handed when swimming they would start going round and round not properly

uhmm technically you would because a few reasons \n1ST I'm a skydiver and you are **required to carry an air mask on certain occasions.\n2ND if it rained 5 inches yesterday today it rained 4inches and tomorrow it rains 2-3 inches that's 12/13 inches and depending on the amount of time you spend in that area you could technically drown \nRachel

The only way to become a stronger swimmer is to swim more! Join a swim team and 4 laps will be nothing after a few weeks.\n\nIt does seem lifeguards are kind of jerks, but they are doing their job and don't want anyone to drown,  Can you imagine what it would be like if you let someone drown?  The person drowning also might be inconvenienced.

The object must be less dense than the fluid to float, and more dense to sink.  If it is exactly equal density, then it can be suspended.

Wait...doesn't everyone in the world already breathe at the same time?  \n\nAre you trying to say that if some people weren't swimming under water or having a breath holding contest, we'd run out of air?  Wow-I thought I came up with some crazy stuff.\n\nI'm going with no on this one.

Well, there are 12 events in a swim meet. These events include 8 individual events, 3 four man relays, and diving in which up to three people can compete in. When two teams go head to head each team gets to fill up three lanes. Each swimmer can compete in a total of 4 events but no more than two relays or two individual events including diving. So if you do some math (which hopefully I did right) I think you could get by with as few 23 (if you have three guys specializing only in diving and that being their only event) if you want to be able to fill out every lane/spot in every event. Of course, you can have more or less than that but it would be hardly worth your while to have a team smaller than 10 swimmers as it would be all but impossible to win a meet.

If you drown them in it.

Hyperventilate, by taking 20 full breaths, then 20 all the way in, half way out. After it, you should feel a little lightheaded, but it really helped me a lot during my swimming careered.

Don't worry, if it's your first swimming practice ever then they're gonna teach you all that stuff there. You don't have to worry about being overwhelmed or anything. \nThe flipping under water to change directions you do it later on not at the beginning, at first it's ok to just push off the wall again.

If you are talking about sky diving then yes it does.\n\n2 people of the same weight in the same body position will fall at same rate\n\n2 people (1 heavier than other) in same body position will fall at different rates (small women sometimes wear weighted vests to help them fall at same rate as men)\n\n2 people of the same weight but in different body positions (one flat stable and one head down in a dive) will fall at different rates - stable position c 120mph, head down max track c 200mph\n\nHope that helps =8-)

The water tension would kill you.  You cannot break the water tension fast enough to allow you to enter unscathed.  This was tested on Mythbusters.  They even tried to break the water tension ahead of them by dropping a hammer into the water just before impact.  The water ripped the legs off the test dummy.

Yes, because when dead people are in water their bodies swell causing them to float to the surface. Then they are free to attack anyone on the surface. If you pop them though, man, look out.

Swimming, alone, is a very strenuous workout.  You need to give your arms more time to recouperate.

Get the victim out of the water if you can do so safely. \nMonitor for breathing and pulse. If no breathing and no pulse, do CPR. If no breathing, but there is a pulse, do rescue breathing.If victim is breathing and has a pulse, put him or her in the recovery position. This position keeps the airway clear and allows swallowed water or vomit to drain. \nTake cold, wet clothes off the victim and cover him or her with something warm to prevent hypothermia.Get Emergency Care and give first aid before emergency care:

Paddle, i'd be screwed because i don't know how to swim.. and I would ask myself, what the hell am I doing in this creek without a paddle to begin with?! If i don't even know how to swim?! then I would log on to Yahoo answers and ask everyone what I should do if this were to ever happen to me...

Trying to keep track (and actually use) extra gear in a swim is a bad idea.  Your best bet (other than a good PFD) is to learn self rescue techniques and practice them in less threatening conditions.  Just keep your head...very few people ever actually drown while whitewater rafting, but it is always a risk.
