Or have to swim one mile in a flight suit for “water confidence” training.Fall out of a boat in boots and blue jeans if you want to know what if feels like to weight too much in the water. It’s not surprising it’s described as being sucked under.

I've experienced that. But in my case, my friends were kind of drunk and thought it'd be funny to push me out of the boat. Yea........I thought I was gonna drown. I can swim, but the clothes I was wearing that day (jeans, hiking boots, and a t-shirt) had me beyond terrified. Just when I thought I was gonna die all for a dang joke, the boat that had been behind us pulled me in. I laid there a good while just grateful I was breathing.

FreakyI was in a small V-bottom aluminum boat. Took a step to get to the tackle box and a friend moved at the same time causing the boat to rock and over the side I went. But the water and felt my feet turn in to brick and jeans became restrictive as hell.
Managed to grab the side of the boat and I yanked myself back in. Was probably only in the water for a second. Just long enough to think I was done for.

Sorry, the water weighs the same. I actually did some water safety training with waders. Water weighs the same.
Blue jeans restrict your movement, even more when they're wet. Swimming with boots on is hard no matter what. Throw those blue jeans in the water. Do they float or sink?
Back in the dark ages in Boot Camp we were required to float for 15 minutes in full Cammies and combat boots. That was for the lowest level of water survival qualification.
This country is truly in a mess when we have to think like that, when seeing that.Sure hope that's a girl on the right, can't tell what's on the left....
