I had a kid I went to HS with drown his senior year. Football player, competitive swimmer, track star. Got a really bad cramp, had no life jacket and his friends weren’t paying attention. No matter how fit you are, or how good of a swimmer you are, anything can happen.

Lifejackets Save Lives. It’s that simple, them being seen as something only kids and non-swimmers wear is extremely dangerous. We need to collectively re-evaluate how we think of lifejackets, they need to be seen as similar to seatbelts, something we ALL wear, regardless of swimming ability. I swim laps in one because it’s just safer and there’s no downside to it, anything can happen in the water!
