why can’t you float in water forever?

623 views

Seems like you can float on your back forever, without really getting tired. When people drown in lakes or oceans, why can’t they just float until someone rescues them? I get it if you’re wearing clothes heavy with water, but if you were already swimming, or at least dressed for it…?

My mom never learned how to swim but, bless her, taught me how to float in the bathtub and then made sure I had (cheap) lessons at a sacrifice. I’m a scuba diver now. Thanks, Mom.
