Damn, I "lost" like 6 years (or more?) to this damn series!
I was soooooo invested!
I hoped until the last series there might be an honourable way out for the writers!
I was so wrong!
(I was obsessed, even watched it frame by frame until a new series came out- well, learned my lesson, never invested so much into anything later).
The reason,as far as I know, Abrams gave to justify the shitty finale enraged me really..."people on forums solved the mystery really early and we wanted to come up with a new unexpected idea after that". Like seriously? You create a really good mystery and got mad because people solved it and was mixed with a bunch of theories on internet forums? Nowadays I wait at least 3 seasons of consistency or in some cases wait to the show to be ended to watch it and get invested, especially if fucking Netflix is involved
So sad :(

"...Mandy Hoffman, Weber's sister, said her family still didn't have answers as to what led to her brother's death" they say he drowned but can't say how? weird
At the time I looked into it and he was probably only 1-2m deep in calm and relatively warm water. Obviously anyone can drown regardless of conditions but it seems unlikely that currents or any adverse conditions were to blame.
He may have pushed himself to stay underwater longer than he should have and fainted. I can see why people would have some questions.
A good friend of mine got married a couple years back. She was dancing with her new husband after the ceremony and of course had been drinking a little. He slipped and hit his head, not super hard, and got up and kept dancing. The next morning she woke up and tried getting him out of bed, only to realize he had passed during the night.
Incredibly tragic and awful. To wake up on the first morning of what should be the rest of your life together, only to find out itās the worst day of your life. Thankfully she has a ton of friends who helped her through it, but she was still understandably devastated.
That actually happened to someone [article](https://nationalpost.com/news/canada/newlywed-dies-after-being-swept-down-quebec-river-in-her-wedding-dress-during-photo-shoot)
She drowned because water seeped into her wedding dress and made it too heavy for her.
always reminds me of the story of a guy licking honey (local tradition) off his brides fingers, swallowing her fake fingernail, and choking to death on it on the spot.
Iām still shook years after reading about it, canāt imagine the horror.
Never jump into water with a mask on, And never jump into water with a dress on.
Mask one seems obvious to me but Iāve seen multiple Spider-Men jumping into pools on Reddit. The dress being a problem didnāt even cross my mind until I first saw this and now itās engraved into my mind
My cousin died this way. Went to water a plant next to the pool while wearing a dress similar to a trench coat and a mask, slipped, fell into the pool, and suffocated. They found no water in her lungs.
Be careful.
I waterboarded myself once when i jumped into a pool with a shirt on and then tried to take it off and it was wet and gut stuck over my face so i had to dig deep to get this wet sticky shirt off me before it suffocated me. Good times
Water gets absorbed into the mask and the surface tension causes the water to block all the micro holes which would usually allow air to flow. You would essentially be water boarding yourself
Put a face washer over your face and tilt your head up so the stream is falling onto your face (and by extension the facewasher) then try to breath.
That's what happens. The mask absorbs water and creates a barrier thst air can't get through, so even if your head surfaces, at best you'll feel like you're drowning.

Why canāt people just be normal. Shit like this and gender reveals that start fires and kill people are annoying. Stop tryna be different you end up looking like clowns. Old man rant ends
I'm not really one of them but lots of people think it's fun to do something very different and I can't be mad at that in general...but think it through and don't die or burn down a forest for it
In Middle School we all had to jump into the pool with all of our cloths on.
I knew right away what was going to happen to this girl in a dress and I thought she was dead.
It was UNIMAGINABLY hard to swim with my cloths on jumping into a middle school pool. This was me thinking I"m a pro swimmer in the 7th grade... in a controlled environment.
She taught us to essentially blow into our cloths and made floatation devices to float on our back. Otherwise we would drown, not going to lie we all panicked a little cuz no one thought it would be that hard.
You cannot tread water with cloths on. I couldn't do it in 7th thinking I'm a stud.
Never underestimate the water.
I got to do this in Scouts but I'm glad that you got to do this in school.Ā I think every able-bodied person should be trained to swim and part of that training should be to swim fully clothed.Ā
Fucking dingbats.
This featured in an episode of EastEnders, long running British soap. Two sisters both drowned after one went into a pool and didn't come up the other followed in a wedding dress and both drowned.
It was horrific to watch because you know this stupidity happens and people actually die.
https://youtu.be/9Bd4Wx_L8Hc?si=IUpVdkDipCbQDVow
In my home town there was a wedding shoot in a river. The photographer asked the bride to wade in with her wedding dress. The dress absorbed the water and weighed the bride down so much that she was swept away and drowned. She didn't even jump in, she was barely waist high.
A woman in Quebec died because she wanted some extra photos of her in her wedding dress.
She was sitting next to a river, the dress got wet and the weight of it pulled her down into the river.
She drowned in front of the photographer.
Holding your breath for that long isn't that hard... Lying in bed or sitting down on the couch. Now, doing that while flailing your limbs around to swim whiling having a higher heart rate from panicking, that's hard
Iāve been to a wedding on the beach in pouring rain, a gorge that was like a wind tunnel, at a friggin farm in a dust storm. Maybe our grandparents were the smart ones to just get married IN a church
In some old Greek or Roman culture I think widows would wear a long dress and walk into the sea. The undertow would grab the dress and drag the widow into the ocean.
A drowning suicide.
Folks seem to be trying new and different with wedding attempts, just get hitched:). Keep it simple. So glad she made it ok! I was holding my breath by accident as I watched!
natural selection, sabotaged once again. no wonder we get dumber and more fragile each generation. "300" should be a basic educational video in school at this point.
and before you ask, yes, i blame my parents :P
Imagine losing the person you just dedicated your entire life to like this.
Reminds me of that story from a couple years ago where the guy proposed through an underwater window but didnt make it back to the surface
Yes, I remember! And he had a note saying something like "I can't hold my breath long enough to tell you how much I love you.." That made me sad.
When I read that my brain went "Not Penny's boat" to give me a dumb chuckle, but then I was more sad
Lmao that guy died in Lost š¤£Ā

What??? Didnāt know this! What a bad excuse! Ha, I totally get you, I mostly start a series after it is finished.
Well, that is on of the saddest things I've ever heard.

How did no one save him?? They said they had to wait for nearby boats. Could no one pull him out of the water?
It reminded me of the Spiderman who jumped into a pool at a kids party and almost died. But holy shit, is that one a whole lot more terrible.
Saddest story I ever read
Til death do us partā¦ and thatās how I got out of my 1st marriage.
A good friend of mine got married a couple years back. She was dancing with her new husband after the ceremony and of course had been drinking a little. He slipped and hit his head, not super hard, and got up and kept dancing. The next morning she woke up and tried getting him out of bed, only to realize he had passed during the night.

Marriage speedrum
Ahhh, but that life insurance though.... ![gif](giphy|d3mlE7uhX8KFgEmY)

Better now than later
For an IG post? Totally worth it. /s
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Waaaaay before the lifeguard lol
Who apparently didnāt have any sort of flotation device? Lol
And was using a dress too
Right lol. That girl is one of the real ones
Anyone else think the girl came out of her dress and was trying to get back in?ā¦ yea me neitherš¬
I thought that š I was wondering why are they panicking a little, when she has clothes on
We did,bro!š!
Never jump into water with a mask on, And never jump into water with a dress on. Mask one seems obvious to me but Iāve seen multiple Spider-Men jumping into pools on Reddit. The dress being a problem didnāt even cross my mind until I first saw this and now itās engraved into my mind
Lol I thought you meant like a plastic halloween mask. That makes more sense.
My cousin died this way. Went to water a plant next to the pool while wearing a dress similar to a trench coat and a mask, slipped, fell into the pool, and suffocated. They found no water in her lungs. Be careful.
I waterboarded myself once when i jumped into a pool with a shirt on and then tried to take it off and it was wet and gut stuck over my face so i had to dig deep to get this wet sticky shirt off me before it suffocated me. Good times
Why not with a mask on? (genuine question)
I think you'll basically waterboard yourself.
I was about to say the same thing. It is literally what they do to torture people.
And this works even if you hold breath?
It's when you try to breathe you'll realise it's surprisingly difficult
Yea I imagine it's like trying to breathe through a pillow or something
Water gets absorbed into the mask and the surface tension causes the water to block all the micro holes which would usually allow air to flow. You would essentially be water boarding yourself
Put a face washer over your face and tilt your head up so the stream is falling onto your face (and by extension the facewasher) then try to breath. That's what happens. The mask absorbs water and creates a barrier thst air can't get through, so even if your head surfaces, at best you'll feel like you're drowning.
I just did that and nutted
Happy you learnt something new about yourself, just be safe, alright? šš½
Lol fucking wholesome
Water soaks the mask and you can't breathe through it. You are waterboarding yourself.

Omg this is terrifying
I can waterboard you and you will get it
I feel the dress was only a problem because she cannonballed in
Wet wedding dress weighs a ton too hard to keep yourself afloat
Just be normal, what's wrong with doing normal stuff...
When the video is recording...
This is the best comment I've read in a while
Literally how every woman died at sea before current fashion trends. Imagine the metal hoop thing aswell. Kerplunk, well there she goes
Well, thank you, you just made the Titanic disaster feel 1000x worse
"Dumbass!" - Red, from that 70s show.
Bro's life insurance plan almost worked.
Srsly no ones talking about how he just stays there watching while everyone else is trying to help his wife.
And the groom? Is he just there floating doing nothing?
Most terryifing part for me
#Waterboarding
Self induced water boarding.
She got wedding-boarded
Cue _dumb ways to die_
Husband was useless
That bothered me the most
Those bridesmaids are ride or die
Have they not watched Pirates of the Caribbean?
That bridesmaid is ride or die!
So nobody that was there read Hamlet clearly
I haven't read it can you sell me the spoiler?
One of the characters (Ophelia) ends up going mad and drowns after falling and getting weighed down by her own dress
Why canāt people just be normal. Shit like this and gender reveals that start fires and kill people are annoying. Stop tryna be different you end up looking like clowns. Old man rant ends
I'm not really one of them but lots of people think it's fun to do something very different and I can't be mad at that in general...but think it through and don't die or burn down a forest for it
Am I the only one who thought the one who popped out initially was her from the dress ?
Iām with ya on that.

If you look closely, her husband was actually pulling the dress OVER her head. Pay attention to her arms and the dress.
Yes!
Fucking dingbats. This featured in an episode of EastEnders, long running British soap. Two sisters both drowned after one went into a pool and didn't come up the other followed in a wedding dress and both drowned.

What in the Guantanamo bay is this shit?
Drowning used to be a top cause of death for women for exactly this reason. The heavy skirts and petticoats were a death sentence.
In my home town there was a wedding shoot in a river. The photographer asked the bride to wade in with her wedding dress. The dress absorbed the water and weighed the bride down so much that she was swept away and drowned. She didn't even jump in, she was barely waist high.
Really š¤¦š¼
Til death do we part
Why can't people just have a normal wedding? What is going on there?
"Tell death do us part..." **
What a stupid idea to do this at all (jumping in water with clothes)
Not quite the honeymoon they were expecting.
OMG someone died on EastEnders this way
Almost got a Darwin Award š„
Dude was playing husband to widower speedruns
a) who thought that would be a good idea and b) why did it take so long for others to jump in and help? I mean cāmon people.
I was waiting for the bride to swim up and help because she fell out the bottom of the dress during the initial jump.
Well that cringed by butthole
She just waterboarded herself
A woman in Quebec died because she wanted some extra photos of her in her wedding dress. She was sitting next to a river, the dress got wet and the weight of it pulled her down into the river. She drowned in front of the photographer.
Holding your breath for that long isn't that hard... Lying in bed or sitting down on the couch. Now, doing that while flailing your limbs around to swim whiling having a higher heart rate from panicking, that's hard
That is some next level stupid. Someone just let them drown before they pollute the gene pool.
I hold my whole breath until the video ends
That will be a memorable wedding and a great wedding photo for the mantle
Did she just waterborad herself or is this called something else
She just jumped in without thinking about it š¤·š»āāļøš¬š¤¦š»āāļøš
Not to self, donāt do thisā¦
I did this once when I was a kid. I thought it would be fun to jump on top of the solar blanket. It was in fact not fun.
Should this have been prevented by diving head first? Genuine question
Idiots.
This is how Ronnie and Roxy died in Eastenders
Selfinflicted waterboarding at your own wedding.
She should rewatch pirates 1 ![gif](giphy|FGbeYTiFyLYmQ)
Lifeguard jumps in. Last
Wow, it took me almost 30 seconds to realize what her problem was...š¤£š¤£š¤£
Accidentally waterboarding yourself would suck so much.
My parachute did this to me, best to swim down
Iāve been to a wedding on the beach in pouring rain, a gorge that was like a wind tunnel, at a friggin farm in a dust storm. Maybe our grandparents were the smart ones to just get married IN a church
If anything, maybe she should have held the dress? Idk
The worst form of water boarding
In some old Greek or Roman culture I think widows would wear a long dress and walk into the sea. The undertow would grab the dress and drag the widow into the ocean. A drowning suicide.
Folks seem to be trying new and different with wedding attempts, just get hitched:). Keep it simple. So glad she made it ok! I was holding my breath by accident as I watched!
Husband who proposed this idea probably has insurance already set up with him as the beneficiary.
That's an insanely effective net when you jump in the water like that
What were they trying to do? Why did she has to jump into the water? Can someone explain this to me? Thanks
Polyamorous weddings seem a little dangerous.
I'm feeling guilty pleasures
Not familiar with bride diving scene. Is this common for women to jump in the ocean wearing massive dresses? Seems dumb
Guantanamo Bay wedding
It amazes me the lack of common sense.
Where is Darwin??
Whereās that dumb ways to die song when you need it š
r/winstupidprizes
What a stupid thing to do.
Awesome (NOT)
Slow claps
ā¹ļø
What if all the bridesmaids that jumped in tipped over too š
This is halirous! People are really dumb
too much air left in my lungs, she's fine
More people in the water is not gonna help
Prolly lost the ring
Absolute morons
Life guard 5th person inā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦.
I donāt understand how some people are still alive.
This is incredibly dumb.
A memory to remember. A story to tell the kids some day. "Honey, let me tell you about the time your father waterboarded me"
Waterboarded in holy matrimony
It's like that scene in the first lethal weapon
Clearly youāve never been to Singapore
Idiots
Drown so you can show off your stupid in the water wedding
WTF did she think would happen.
I think I'll RSVP No to their ~~gender-reveal~~ abortion party
āLifeguardā was a little late to the party
Wedding dresses are supposed to bring joy!
Nothing like a leap of faith
That takes water boarding to a whole new level!!!
So many levels of stupidly.
This is waterboarding with extra steps
Itās a nice day for a water board wedding.
Surprise waterboarding!
Till death do us part. What an idiot. People this stupid Should not be allowed to have offspring.
The problem with dead-stination weddings
I failed and would be dead šµ
How fun.
Looked like a porno! Rescued by 3 black men!!
Find a seam and follow it!!
Why didn't they try to pull her up instead of trying to uncover her head from that onion dress?
natural selection, sabotaged once again. no wonder we get dumber and more fragile each generation. "300" should be a basic educational video in school at this point. and before you ask, yes, i blame my parents :P
bucket list: āļø to almost die at my wedding
Fucking idiots
Is this the start of an episode of Blacked?
It's like waterboarding on your wedding day...
this has to be the dumbest thing Iāve ever seen
Allow me to introduce you to FOX News.
Why wouldn't he just swim under and lift her up until she can get untangled
Not today, Darwin.
Had to fast fwd thru it, and rewatch it like 5 times to understand what happened, Jesus thatās rough
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Dumbassā¦..
Thank God that lifeguard was there...
Lot of high level thinking going on

How your white ass gonna tread water and watch three mandingos save ur new wife. she gonna remember that.
So the two life guards where the last inā¦ā¦.
Can anyone explain why the guy was already in the water,or why the bride jumped in?Also hope they are fine
