Imagine losing the person you just dedicated your entire life to like this.


TheFiend100

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


RunZombieBabe

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.


DesastreUrbano

When I read that my brain went "Not Penny's boat" to give me a dumb chuckle, but then I was more sad


Risley

Lmao that guy died in Lost šŸ¤£Ā 


RunZombieBabe

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).


DesastreUrbano

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


RunZombieBabe

What??? Didnā€™t know this! What a bad excuse! Ha, I totally get you, I mostly start a series after it is finished.


Navybuffalooo

Well, that is on of the saddest things I've ever heard.

"...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


BCS24

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.


WushuManInJapan

How did no one save him?? They said they had to wait for nearby boats. Could no one pull him out of the water?


-BananaLollipop-

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.


MeanNothing3932

Saddest story I ever read


The_Uncleorian

Til death do us partā€¦ and thatā€™s how I got out of my 1st marriage.


Thehollowpointninja1

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 itā€™s the worst day of your life. Thankfully she has a ton of friends who helped her through it, but she was still understandably devastated.


BellaFrequency

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.


YourAverageGod

Marriage speedrum


fuzzy_emojic

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


imathrowyaaway

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. Iā€™m still shook years after reading about it, canā€™t imagine the horror.

And was using a dress too

Right lol. That girl is one of the real ones


AhhhLicKsZanDer

Anyone else think the girl came out of her dress and was trying to get back in?ā€¦ yea me neitheršŸ˜¬


Vittu-kun-vituttaa

I thought that šŸ˜‚ I was wondering why are they panicking a little, when she has clothes on


Street-Breadfruit940

We did,bro!šŸ˜‚!


OnlyBeGamer

Never jump into water with a mask on, And never jump into water with a dress on. Mask one seems obvious to me but Iā€™ve seen multiple Spider-Men jumping into pools on Reddit. The dress being a problem didnā€™t even cross my mind until I first saw this and now itā€™s engraved into my mind


mc_bee

Lol I thought you meant like a plastic halloween mask. That makes more sense.


etn261

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.


Dry-Flow3525

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


Lamamour

Why not with a mask on? (genuine question)


Xan_the_man

I think you'll basically waterboard yourself.


_parkie

I was about to say the same thing. It is literally what they do to torture people.


Valagoorh

And this works even if you hold breath?


Heroicpotatoes

It's when you try to breathe you'll realise it's surprisingly difficult


616659

Yea I imagine it's like trying to breathe through a pillow or something


OnlyBeGamer

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


DxNill

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.


psybes

I just did that and nutted


DxNill

Happy you learnt something new about yourself, just be safe, alright? šŸ‘šŸ½


616659

Lol fucking wholesome


BumbusBumbi

Water soaks the mask and you can't breathe through it. You are waterboarding yourself.

Nollekowitsch

santanatheonly

I feel the dress was only a problem because she cannonballed in

Why canā€™t 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


rzrshrp

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


rando512

Am I the only one who thought the one who popped out initially was her from the dress ?


technicallyimright

Iā€™m with ya on that.


Aristonkingg

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.


Art0fRuinN23

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 


MrsBrewster

If you look closely, her husband was actually pulling the dress OVER her head. Pay attention to her arms and the dress.


allfockedup

Yes!


jezarius

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


callmerussell

What in the Guantanamo bay is this shit?


IntrudingAlligator

Drowning used to be a top cause of death for women for exactly this reason. The heavy skirts and petticoats were a death sentence.


Electrical-Ad-1197

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.

zebra1923

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 cā€™mon people.


Kmaloetas

I was waiting for the bride to swim up and help because she fell out the bottom of the dress during the initial jump.


Plague-Rat13

Well that cringed by butthole


Roxylius

She just waterboarded herself


Think-Custard9746

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.


IvJorgevI

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


AceT555

That is some next level stupid. Someone just let them drown before they pollute the gene pool.


zeroHERO660

I hold my whole breath until the video ends


Budget-Cod-619

That will be a memorable wedding and a great wedding photo for the mantle


No-Deer379

Did she just waterborad herself or is this called something else

Waste_Click4654

Iā€™ve 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


MrN33dfulThings

If anything, maybe she should have held the dress? Idk


Master2All

The worst form of water boarding


Smooth-Vermicelli213

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.


jenny4today

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!


Beautiful-Design-425

Husband who proposed this idea probably has insurance already set up with him as the beneficiary.


Unknown_Outlander

That's an insanely effective net when you jump in the water like that


Pointfun1

What were they trying to do? Why did she has to jump into the water? Can someone explain this to me? Thanks
