Yes, I am sure any animal designed by evolution for maximized mobility on land is capable of outswimming any animal designed By evolution for maximized mobility in water. It's common knowledge that, by the same vein, a shark can outrun most terrestrial animals when they come out of water, as they occasionally do!

@@chatnoire89 Actually, it's possible to outswim a croc, but not because they're slow swimmers. They are ambush predators, relying on their camouflage and stealth. They swim very slowly and silently up to prey and then, VERY SUDDENLY, launch themselves at full speed to attack once in range. The biggest danger of a croc is not knowing they're there. If you know they're there, you can actually outswim their stalking swim pretty easily. Keep that up for a bit, and the croc might actually decide you're not worth the effort and break off the hunt. Just keep in mind, Crocs are actually pretty fast on land, too, and use much the same tactic. They can't keep it up for long but a galloping croc can reach 20-30 MPH, they can easily chase down horses and deer if they stalk close enough before sprinting into a gallop because they accelerate MUCH faster. Also, if you're on the other side of a chain link fence or in a tree, you are still not safe because both alligators and crocs can actually CLIMB, and are regularly sighted in trees and fenced areas as a result.

I was capsized while sailing in the North Sea in early March as a young adult. When we went into the water it was very cold. A storm was building and a small shipping warning had been issued. We had been heading home with all speed. I remember gasping hard when I went in but then I couldn't get myself to breath at all for the longest time. I really thought I would suffocate. Then we tried hard to right the boat, climbing on the upturned hull and pulling the keel over with all out weight but the mast was stuck, probably in a sand bank. Our safety boat for the flotilla appeared and was manned by someone who was just learning. He approached from windward and up tide with his 2 mercury 90s pointing towards us. He got too close and I tried to yell as hard as I could that he was going to make us into mincemeat but I couldn't get any sound to come out. Fortunately his trainer saw the situation and floored the engines to bring them away from us in the water but I was swept under and away from both boats by the force of the engines right next to me. By this time I'd been in the water for about 5 minutes and couldn't feel my legs. I remember thinking that the situation was serious because I couldn't see any shipping or land. I remember thinking clearly that I should blow my whistle (on the life jacket), but I never actually did it. I kept thinking I had and then seeing that I hadn't even got the whistle out of the loop it was held in on the lifejacket. By the time I was rescued I didn't feel cold anymore and had stopped shivering. I couldn't really move much at all or keep a coherant thought in my head. I just remember feeling quite peaceful.

Well, with Rose as the supposed last survivor of the Titanic in the film, and with no other survivor to talk to, the researchers will just take her story at face value.

@Ramboost007

2 жыл бұрын

@@LocalFoe Of course it's fictional. I'm just referring to what happened in the universe of the movie. In the movie, the events aboard the Titanic are told from Rose's point of view. However, Rose does not have any concrete evidence to back them up. Jack's name is not on the manifest (since he won the ticket in a last minute poker game), she cannot provide any links to her past socialite life (since she burned all bridges to that life to avoid her domineering mother, actions inspired by Jack), and no other witness is alive to corroborate her story. The only evidence she has is the presence of a "Rose Dawson" in the survivor list (which may not be her), a nude drawing of her (which may also not be her), and possession of The Heart of The Ocean (which she may have acquired somewhere else aside from being in the Titanic or may even be a fake altogether). Adding the fact that her story has a lot of inconsistencies, inaccuracies, and anachronisms (Jack mentions a lake that did not yet exist), that it's told from the memory of a 101 year-old woman, and now including this expert's analysis in her alleged survivor story, there is a very plausible chance that "Rose"'s story may be inaccurate at best at completely false at worst, and she might just be a grifter scamming the explorers, who were suspicious of that happening in the first place. But with some good storytelling peppered with publicly known facts about Titanic, she manages to get a free trip to Newfoundland.

He knew the ocean and knew he would have drowned if he wasted all his strength by swimming against the current. It really is about knowing the timing of how the currents push and pull that keeps you safe.

Fun Fact! Charles Joughin, the head baker on the Titanic survived in a pretty crazy way! After passing out food and supplies, giving up a seat on a lifeboat for another, and throwing chairs over so other could use them to float, he went to his cabin and got HAMMERED on whiskey. He was in the water for 2-3 hours. He survived for a few reasons. He was one of if now THE last person to leave the ship clinging to the stern as it went down. Also the cold water nullified the effects of alcoholic vasodilation and gave him a heavy dose of liquid courage. While everyone was panicking and thrashing, lose body heat or drowning, he just doggy paddled around for hours. He ended up clinging to a life raft until another came along and pulled him in. He survived until 1959. Pretty darn amazing

I had seen this video before and I swear, while I was gasping for air, hyperventilating and fearing for my son's life, there was a part of my brain saying: Well, it turns out , that guy from that KZread video? Knew what he was talking about.... We were able to swim to shore all three of us with great difficulty and we're ok now. Scariest 15 minutes of my life.

The ocean took my brother. 53 degree water. They searched for his body for 12 hours. After 30 minutes they weren't looking for a survivor, they were looking for a body. Coast guard never found him. Buried at sea.

Kudos for addressing the "We gotta have food!" mentality when you're short on water. Food takes water to digest. If you're short on water, minimize eating as much as you can afford to or even stop eating altogether to make the water last longer. Sometimes you really do need the food to help withstand cold or provide necessary energy for physical feats. Otherwise it's better to go hungry. Also it's usually better to go hungry than eat some questionable food that might make you sick.

I did cold water training once, the water was 5 degrees in an outdoor pool in the middle of the uk winter, I managed 20 minutes up to my shoulders before the instructor told us to exit the pool as anything over that starts to get dangerous. It was awful but awesome at the same time. Also correct about the involuntary gasp/hyperventilating, I often have contrast showers after the gym and although over time you start to get used to it so that initial cold shock isn't as pronounced, it still causes sharp intakes of breath.

@@haroldbridges515 That is something I personally cannot attest to since Mr. Zamperini died in 2014 and I'm not an expert on this particular topic. As with most historical accounts Zamperini is likely not a 100% reliable narrator, no human is. And I would not be shocked if there was some embellishment or inaccuracy. It includes a lot of harrowing stuff and Zamperini also didn't omit some of the uglier effects of his experiences after the war (drinking and PTSD). But his story as a whole is still pretty amazing even if you go by the well established facts. It's hard to dispute the key points of the story, his athletic career, his plane going down in the Pacific Ocean, the fact he was a Japanese POW, and the well-documented abuses that many POWs experienced. Hillenbrand didn't just use Zamperini's interviews, she also cited wartime records, letters, Zamperini's own diary from the war, other historians, other published accounts etc. Hillenbrand cites her sources in the book itself throughout. Feel free to form your own opinion, but I personally think Hillenbrand did her homework.

Instant massive asthma attack from external temperature shock to torso & throat, even though I hadn't breathed in any liquid... 😬 Thankfully an uncle spotted I was in difficulties & towed me out, or suspect I'd likely be dead now? It seemed like when breathing suddenly stopped like that, any logic and rest of body's motor control just went into a sudden freeze as well, really scary. Given the skill-building this gentleman & his trainees deliver, I suspect that may be something you can train yourself to override, but I dont imagine an untrained person has much chance alas? 😔
