low plains drifter 10,617 Posted July 25, 2017 Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 Be sure to launch the jogger in the drink if ever you see the prick again, that's after you level the fucka and claim the adidas for your own of course 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SimpleSimon 7 Posted July 25, 2017 Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 Good effort mate... I wonder, would something similar work on a drowned dog as they do to new born calves and lambs? Hold upside down by both hind legs and swing back and forth... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dytkos 17,802 Posted July 25, 2017 Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 Well done mate, perhaps it was trying to commit suicide though? Cheers, D. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scothunter 12,609 Posted July 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 Knowing my luck it would come apart and the the head shoulders go flying back in the canal lol It prob would, but tbh it was drenched and a pure dead weight. Must be something in what born says about drowning. Cz i wrote it off as dead. when the women asked if could help. I expected a dog scrambling@the bank trying to get out. You can imagine what i thought when faced with a dog face down floating! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You can imagine what i thought when faced with a dog face down floating! If you're interested for a better explanation.... "Because Weddell seals breathe air like all mammals, the diving reflex kicks in to manage the lack of oxygen while underwater. All non-essential processes such as digestion come to a halt, and blood vessels constrict like flood gates, stopping blood flow to outer tissues and organs. The seal’s heart rate slows dramatically, which decreases the amount of blood circulating through its body. Metabolism, the process by which cells create and use energy, declines in the unused parts of its body." "The diving reflex exists in humans (and other non-aquatic mammals) as a survival mechanism, rather than a means to live every day. Humans “drown” when the automatic reflex to breathe forces us to inhale water into our lungs; suffocation, unconsciousness, and death follow. Medical doctors define “near-drowning” as survival after a person inhales water into his lungs, such as the case with Gore Otteson." http://dujs.dartmouth.edu/2012/03/the-mammalian-diving-reflex/#.WXdqYITyvcs The chance of survival after unconsciousness depends on time really. The longer the brain goes without oxygen the greater the chance or damage and death. I might be wrong in your case Scot but it's a significant mechanism in drowning anyway.

mushroom 13,089 Posted July 25, 2017 Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 My staffy once jumped 2-3 meters into a lock because she thought the grass cuttings floating on top, were solid ground (thick cnut lol). I had to climb down the ladder knowing if I slipped I was fooked. Canals as has already been said, are lethal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
