This image is one I find absolutely terrifying. At age six I nearly drowned by stepping off the shelf we were all splashing on. No one knew the shelf was an absolute drop of nearly ten feet. What’s more, no one saw me disappear. I saved myself by reaching out for the wall of the shelf in front of me and climbing it.
Ever since then I never went in water that was above my neck.
