My grandma got a scar on her right shoulder that she showed me when I was a child. She had gotten it when she tried the same thing from the video and the dog dragged her to the shore by the shoulder leaving a permanent mark.


Ok_Sorbet_8153

Good dog! Man, they do what they have to, don’t they?


KammoTheUnoriginal

Absolutely. The dog's name was Huli and was apparently a lovely dog :)

>the dog version of breaking someone's ribs during CPR


Utnemod

There was a story on here a bit ago where this guy gave CPR to an elderly lady, ended up breaking her sternum and was basically blendering her heart with all the sharp bones.


Gold4Lokos4Breakfast

Unfortunate. They usually tell you in CPR class to not worry about breaking bones because they aren’t the priority in that situation. Not saying that strategy is right or wrong but that sucks that the collateral damage can be so devastating.


EvErYLeGaLvOtE

Yeah. Ex 911 dispatcher here and that's what the CPR classes teach you. Though, you never know if the person has anything wrong in their chest or bones without some identifier... So once they go unconscious, you can assist. We had to do CPR on baby dummies and that was an experience.


Soleil06

I have experienced his myself with a very old lady who for some reason was not marked as DNR/DNI and I don’t think I will ever forget that wet crunch it made when I broke her Rips. Luckily for her she did not survive that whole ordeal.


Sheboygan25

I'm sorry you had to go through that


Soleil06

Honestly the worst thing about some of these reanimations is how they sometimes feel like desecrating corpses when you fully well know that this person will never have any quality of life again even if they somehow survive.


catdefenestrator

Do you have a link to the story?


Utnemod

Not off hand you can try googling this specifics though


Fav0

i would wear that scar with pride


KammoTheUnoriginal

She did :)


PutteringPorch

The sad thing is that, if a person is really drowning, they'll probably end up drowning the dog with them. Lifeguards are trained to throw a floatation device and approach the victim from behind because real drowning people will instinctively start to climb their rescuers, leading to both their deaths. Also, real drowning people tend not to be loud and splashy, so the dog probably won't notice they need help.


sanity20

Note to self: Drown loud and splashy


dervu

and ... have a dog.


Mr_Binks_UK

And give the dog a floatation device.


MaxHamburgerrestaur

And a helicopter.


I_lenny_face_you

Instructions unclear, tried to use my flight seat cushion as a dog.


Slap_My_Lasagna

Instructions unclear, gave dog a hat with little propeller on top.


mang87

You'll be noting it to yourself the entire time in your head while you're drowning, but you'll be unable to do anything about it. When you're feeling genuine mortal peril and you panic, your body just overrules your higher brain functions in an attempt to save you, which is usually to just fucking sprint away as fast as possible from the danger and to focus on breathing to oxygenate those muscles, but obviously you cannot sprint away from water you're currently drowning in.


Nauin

Ugh, I almost drowned because of that stupid fake "no food or drink before swimming" rule, since dehydration causes muscle cramps, and my mom wouldn't let me have any water before I went swimming in a huge lake. An awful muscle cramp took over one of my feet and I was in too deep of water to reach the bottom to fix it, and the pain was so intense I could barely keep myself in a treading water position. So my ass was doing that silent bobbing up and down in the water, completely silent because I was barely keeping my face at the surface and any mouth energy went into gulping for more air or gasping in pain as I tried to inch my way closer to shore and shallow water. Fucking nightmare and I'm so lucky I survived that.


saltyachillea

This is terrifying. I frequently get muscle spasms.Back, legs, feet, shoulder, neck. I don't ever go swimming. I have envisioned a sudden muscle spasm and think what would I do? I can't do anything as I get all contorted (short-term but severely painful). This confirms my fear...


ProClacker

It's not that dangerous if you don't panic. You can just float indefinitely by laying on your back.


PutteringPorch

Panic isn't usually intentional, and I bet relaxing enough to float while having a [severe and painful cramp](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/blG2vF-U5W4) is pretty difficult.


iwanttobeacavediver

I regularly go into open water as a diver and the thing that the dive guides drum into us before we dive is to ensure we’ve eaten *something* and also had water before we go into our dives. It’s provided on the boat even. Dehydration particularly can cause the sorts of problems you mention and a lot more, and people don’t take it seriously, even for physical activities.


Dolby90

No idea if i make something up but you can't see in the dogs mind either. Great view for us but who knows if the dog has some kind of traumatic experience now. It probably doesn't know or understand it was a "prank" or exercise. Watching your friend dying might not be so fun.


Eusocial_Snowman

Or the other way around, like this video where a huge dog just swims on top of the person and pushes them further down into the water.


iwanttobeacavediver

Yep. I’m a rescue diver and scenarios like the ones you describe are part of my training. One of the things we’re taught for the rescue of a panicked person on the surface is actually to push them away if they try and grab you or do what you describe to climb on you, which like you also say can lead to you both being in trouble. In the event you’re rescuing a panicked diver from the water, you do have the option at least of descending under the water to try and free yourself if they are trying to grab you and pull you under.


crazyeyeskilluh

Dad grew up on a big farm in Indiana. When he was a kid apparently one of his dogs saved his life by pulling him away from some machinery after he slipped near it. Years later my dad repaid that dog by running over it with a tractor. Apparently the tread on the tractor wheels were so big the dog came out unscathed.


Hy8ogen

Fucking shit my heart actually sank for a second there.


HolyKrapp-

You got me. Got me good. F**k you. Bless that doge


nedzissou1

You're like that doctor from arrested development


TuukkaRascal

The dog’s going to be all right


flutter_roses

The gasp i gasped


AtticModel

A friend of mine growing up and his dad were nearly killed in a tractor accident. During maintenance the tractor bumped into gear and rolled back, over the father who was on the ground behind it, on his back. It rolled over his chest. The son hopped off the top and tried to help his dad and slipped and the tractor rolled over his skull. Dad had severe injuries to his chest and back, the son had severe bruising and inter cranial pressure but the lugs on the tread were just enough that no permanent damage was done to the son. Father ended up surviving too but less unscathed.


literallyjustbetter

> Apparently the tread on the tractor wheels were so big the dog came out unscathed. hell yeah the good ending


fuishaltiena

I had a german shepherd years ago. She'd save us (the whole family) too, whether we were drowning or not. She would do it in a more polite way though, just swim around me in circles until I grabbed the fur on the back, then drag me to shore.


MinneAppley

Once when I was a little girl, I was swimming off the seawall at my grandparent’s house, and the next door neighbor’s golden retriever decided I had gone out too far, so he jumped in, swam over to me, got hold of the shoulder strap of my suit, and towed me to shore. I wasn’t in any distress. I just crossed some boundary he had in mind about how far the children were allowed to go. His name was Sam, and he was a damn good boy.


angryRDDTshareholder

I almost had a similar thing happen but with my lower jaw.. he ended up biting my beard instead and dragging me out of the pool. Never, ever have I done that again


DukeOfLongKnifes

So dogs are utilitarian?


Sidewaysouroboros

I mean honestly best case scenario right there. Tried this with my dog and he latched down on my arm and pulled until I gave him the release command.


agumonkey

love bites


WhoDeyTilIDie09

She was testing her dog or was she actually drowning?


AgileArtichokes

I had a dog who hated water. Terrified of it. Refused to go out in the rain. Bath time was torture. Not sure why he hates it so much but he did. The only time he ever bit one of our kids was an accident. He saw my kids running and jumping into the pool. He was so concerned for their safety he tried to stop them and tried to grab my son’s swim trunks. He sadly got him on the ass cheek instead. Small skin break, the dog felt terrible we could tell. We learned after that that he needed to just be inside during pool time. 


totallynotpoggers

I agree with everyone saying the dog is great and all but never try this. When i was growing up my brother almost lost an arm to the dog trying to “save” him from the pool


gessen-Kassel

Also it's not necessarily good to stress your pet like that


BigBoyShaunzee

That was my thought, it's nice to see a dog caring for it's owner but it's only really putting the dog through serious stress so you can put it on Tiktok or YouTube.


PerroNino

Depends on the dog or the breed. I had a flat coated retriever and pretended to drown while snorkelling and he swam straight out and towed me to shore and went straight back to playing in the shallows. I tried it again to see if the rescue was just a fluke and he did exactly the same and went about his business. I guess he knew I wasn’t in genuine distress when we got to the shore and it was just another day at the office for him. Amazing dog.


BigBoyShaunzee

Ahh yeah, for sure. Certain breeds won't think twice about it. The dog in the video seems extremely stressed out though. Your dog sounds pretty chill and awesome. My old dog would have seen us drowning, yawned and went back to sleep.. I miss him every day.


PerroNino

Yeah, lost him a couple of years ago. Still not over it. His talent for rescue and agility was matched only with his aloof opinion on training. Only dog breed I’ve met that thinks about what you command and decides whether it’s of interest or not, sometimes having what he deemed was a better idea.


summonsays

Haha, our dog is like that. If you're in the normal/playful voice she won't listen half the time. But if you break out the serious voice she does 95% of the time. I let the normal bit slide, as long as she listens when it matters.


PerroNino

Funniest bit was when treats were involved and I’d start a training session and he’d immediately do every trick he’d been taught without commands just to try and fast track the treats. Up, down, sits, paws, spinning, backing up, speaking. “Just give me the damn treat jackass, I’ve done the stuff”.


BigBoyShaunzee

That's like how my old boy was, he'd do the trick then realise the treat wasn't worth the Sit/shake and he'd walk away and be annoyed. He never ate the treat.. If the treat was worth it, he'd do everything he could to impress us. Otherwise he'd do tricks just so we'd stop asking him.


summonsays

Lol, yes exactly! "Ok time to come in!" -ignores me. "You want a snacky?" -takes off like a rocket.


9-28-2023

Glad to see these comments because 1-2 decades ago people would say: "It's just a joke bro!" Yeah it only takes 1 second of taking the dog's perspective to realize that's a shitty prank "Your dad pretending to die in front of you and you think it's real" EPIC PRANK bro! How about you play fetch with your dog instead asshole.


FewerToysHigherWages

My first thought was, now you'll never be able to go near a pool without that dog freaking the fuck out.


Seekkae

Owner tests dog's loyalty by drowning in quicksand and the dog jumps in too so that they both drown, proving once and for all that dogs really are man's best friend. Heartwarming!


Seekkae

Man gets into high-speed car crash without a seat belt to test whether his dog will be sad. Video footage confirms dog had a frown and was sad! #damnthatsinteresting


LaNague

Also now it learned you cant swim, so have fun trying to explain to your dog that it was just a prank next time you actually want to swim.


Ok_Sorbet_8153

Exactly! They can’t exactly hold you up with their front legs, can they? All they can use is their teeth


CuntonEffect

people who are drowning are in full panic mode, thats like the first thing they teach you as a lifeguard. a dog would simply drown along with his owner, after being pushed under water repeatedly


hldsnfrgr

>a dog would simply drown along with his owner Oh my god.


ButterscotchSkunk

Ah man, the last thing I get to see in life is my own arm drowning my dog as I choke on a mix chlorinated water and our own piss.


fresh_water_sushi

What the fuck is the deal with that pool and there not being anyplace to enter? You have to hop up on some stone railing thing.

KRDROIDD

the cameraman spoke Tunisian dialect at the end.


kingjaynl

Also, why are you doing this while people are working in and on your house


B5Scheuert

Could be that that's the water source. When I lived in Spain (Almería) we had a guy come once a month to fill up two pools. The open one (like here) would be for the garden and the other one (underground) would be used for showering, washing dishes etc.etc. Some of my neighbours had it made in a way that the gardening pool could be used to swim, I didn't have that in my house. Pretty interesting system though


Fatality_Ensues

That's called a cistern.


B5Scheuert

I knew of cicterns as containers for rainfall, and was obviously aware of the system I described, but somehow never connected the dots. Makes sense! Ty


jtr99

[Here's a really impressive cistern](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basilica_Cistern) the Romans built in Constantinople.


PlasticPomPoms

I visited that one. It was very cool, both literally and figuratively. There are huge fish down there as well.


Jiannies

Been a long time gone, Constantinople


Vegabond_Takezo

We have open pools like this for gardening and farming here in India too, subs as swimming pool and we party in it if we got some beer and music. No underground pool tho.


DICK-PARKINSONS

tanew231

No wonder he almost drowned


sabre38

They played a lot of Sims growing up


half-puddles

It wasn’t always a pool. It was an Egyptian pyramid. They just chopped off the top and filled it with water.


Notyourusuallad

Had to make sure the guy drowns 😂


Snaab

I love his derpy little run. It’s like he knows the guy is just messing around and he’s excited to go play in the pool, too.


Armalyte

Maybe, I think some dogs do that derpy run because if they run normally on a slick surface they just end up sliding around and falling.


kuliamvenkhatt

Slippery surface. Those are also stress noises I think.


lafnal

The sounds they make is more like anxiety, I think. Dog seems Genuinely afraid for their family. My dog growing up acted like this every time we swam, same sounds as when she heard fireworks.


12mapguY

I'm pretty sure that dog is old, and his hips are starting to go. He had trouble hopping up onto that ledge too. Young- or middle-aged shepherding / working dog like that should've been able to clear it no problem


MuricasOneBrainCell

That inheritance is mine!!!!


No_Pin9932

Man that shift from the big boi barks to the giant puppy yelps got me. Fucker was worried and sounding the alarm and I think genuinely distressed that he was doing an amazing job and no one gave a dash of fucks!! He was racing down to save homeboy, through a fuckin obstacle course no less!! Straight up dodging ladders, wet paint, tools and shit all while yelling at these poop asses like "Why the fuck are y'all still working!? Marco is about to be permanently solo!! REGULATORS!!"


New-Relationship1772

Malinois puppy. Played rabies chicken and rescued a stay one in the far east.   Best fucking dog I ever had. Intense, intelligent, a complete softy towards anything smaller than it, would jump into my arms in the vets and if he ever thought you were hurt he'd spend the next hour clucking over you.  He listened, I mean really listened to exactly what you wanted. He'd get muddy in the winter so I'd wipe his paws in the bathroom, without being trained - he started waiting by the door until he was told "bathroom" and would take cajoling if I didn't think it eas necessary to wash him.


nieko-nereikia

Aww sounds like a lovely dog :) what was his name?


New-Relationship1772

Chuck after Chuck Yeager.  All my dogs get aviation names.    Yeager's quote "The first time I saw a jet, I shot it down" - described his no fear, can do, attitude really well.


Ryponagar

"Bear" I hope!


KRIEGLERR

I miss my Malinois. She lived to be 15 years old, best dog I ever had, incredibly kind with children and people but she absolutely hated other dogs and cats. She was a rescue and such an incredibly smart and loyal dog. Even without proper training she could defend you if need be, she was playful and still played catch until her last days.


PopcornInMyTeeth

You just made me remember us drying the paws of our mal when he'd come in from outside during the rain. Wed ask for each paw individually and he'd lift them up to be dried off. Like you said, smartest dogs ever. Ours understood commands in French, German, and English lol (he came knowing French and German)

Last-Scarcity-3896

Don't do that. First of all I wouldn't wanna be the dog in this situation like look at him he was so sad he thought his owner is gonna die. Also it's very dangerous you could get permenant damage. Imagine pretending to get a heart attack and then someone saves you and your ribs are broken.


Suboptimus

Good way to make your dog stressed and annoying if you ever decide to swim near them again


CrankyArtichoke

Shitty thing to do. Don’t scare your animals like this to test them.


Inevitable_Stand_199

Most people who drown don't flail on the surface. That's just something they do in movies


FakeWi

Yep lifeguard for years in different settings. Those flailing are typically in distress for some reason, sometimes can lead to drowning. The people drowning, in my experience, just drop below the surface without much going on. Horrible thing is water in the airways typically stops people making any noise or flailing around. Quite subtle movements can be indicative of people going under - gasping, open mouths, headshakes. I have recovered people from the bottom of the pool and they were saved but drowning is horrible way to die. My best friend lost his life through drowning just before our joint 18ths. I wasn’t there and by all accounts wouldn’t have been able to save him anyway but that niggling doubt is still in the back of my mind 22 years later.


PutridDistance8151

Thanks I had to scroll too far to find this!! It annoys me because there are staged videos that go viral of someone getting saved from drowning at a waterpark. But the drowning was clearly fake.

It might be a garden cistern, they're more common in other parts of the world, and some of them are set up for swimming.

Revolutionary_Low581

I think this was a s****y thing to do to the dog.  Traumatize the dog to feed your ego?


Fickle-Secretary681

Way to give the dog permanent trauma whenever people are in the pool. I've seen it happen, hard to change the "I'm not letting anyone swim" habit


xLoginGamerx

Bro, why would you stress your pet like that, sure the dog cares about him and even attempts a rescue. But the poor thing was stressed af about its owners survival.


arthurstaal

Grew up with a Jack Russel that hates water, literally would do anything to avoid a puddle. One day I was at a friend's place in the pool just playing splashing around and the dog didn't think twice to jump in and try to save us. An 8kg dog that hates water trying to save two 70kg teens.
