malt25 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Maybe I'm being a bit picky, BUT ! "Drowning incident" would indicate someone has passed away. "Unconscious body". Unconscious, one is still alive. "Body" deceased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Unconscious body". Unconscious, one is still alive. "Body" deceased. I drowned once. I was hit in the head by my surf board and was revived on the beach by life guards In Southern California. It was classified as a head injury and subsequent drowning. I spent several years as a young guy as a life guard, summer job at the Jersey shore. We pulled out numerous people who were drowning. Fortunately we revived all but one. The police reports were all described as drownings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gk10002000 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 The article link said he was out on a small sailboat. No life vest? Not a good swimmer? They said they saw him struggling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brucegoniners Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 I love the Thai media. FYI, "drowning or being electrocuted" means your dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But coming from a socalled jurno, I would ecpect a bit more accuracy. But hey, that's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
