2 Men identified as 29-year-old Mario Guthrie and 46-year-old Scott Vater, drowned in the Niagara River. Witnesses during the event said that Scott, wanted to go into the water to collect driftwood to make home furniture, but Mario offered to go swim and get it instead. It looks to me from the video that he wasn’t a strong swimmer. As Mario is struggling and taking in water, one of the onlooker, (possibly the guy recording) urges Scott to get in and save him. Scott then went into the water aswell in a failed rescue attempt. Tragically, onlookers saw them struggle… Read more »
First off, if they care about saving the dudes life which idk if I even would. Before jumping in, You would need to actually fucking THINK and bring something that floats with you for the guy to hold on to instead of you. Before anyone jumped in they should’ve called 911 or for some other professional help. They also could have had a rope to hold onto or anything that could keep them above water. This utter stupidity warrants them to be deserving of death. Therefore, I don’t care they died because of how dumb they were. If there are… Read more »
Would be interesting to know why the first guy jumped in the first place. How do he drown when there was a piece of fucking wood right next to him? Also, why did the retards watching not call for help if they cared so much instead of recording. If it was my choice I would kill everyone in that situation.
He jumped into save a guy who had jumped in to save a guy who had jumped in to save a guy… it goes back to the 7th century when the first guy slipped and fell in
I want to waterboard the dude who told the guy to jump in and save him. The white guy paid the black dude money to go grab him some wood. That is primo wood for building furniture or instruments. Its old and the minerals in the river help preserve it.
The dumb fuck recording couldnt even put his phone down to help. Honestly aint no one guilting me into jumping in that water.
I have been trying to find the identity of the punk bitch recording for years. I want to pay him.a visit.
If he did nothing, he would have just floated on the top. Incredible how people kill themselves. Granted, it’s probably very scary to dip under the water, being deprived of oxygen but if one jumps into water the least they should be aware of (if they can’t swim) is to remain calm. Float. Just not face down, LOL.
This is incorrect. The water was pulling him down. Review timestamp 0:30. Observe how he’s kicking towards land but is getting pulled back by the current.

This was the most sad and stupid thing I’ve seen. First, the guy who doesn’t know how to swim without something helping him is the one that go to the water, and second, the old man that shouldn’t even enter the water cause like I said, it’s OLD and probably wouldn’t be able to handle what he will do. But he doesn’t care that and even tried to swim with the the other guy over him when he luckily could move by himself in the water. And the thing that frustrates me the most is that you can see when… Read more »
what if that older man was a father of the younger one? what would you do.. Of course we can think here we have time. They should thtough them something floating …any rope from somewhere…However can’t get what happened to first man as he was able to swim for a moment and then like it was his first time. WTF

There is a very strong undercurrent at play here. The surface water just appears calm.
Remember, if u save someone from drowning and this person starts to drown u(this actually happens a lot(cuz of panic and instincts)) hit straight into this person’s nose, he’ll be shocked and have another thing to deal with when u’ll pull him out. (learned on lifeguards courses)
My dad was trained in water rescue in the Air Force. You approach them from the rear and grab them from behind. If they get ahold of you in panic, they will pull you under and try to stand on your head if they feel it will save them. But yes, if they turn and face you and begin clawing at you, pop em good.

This is ridiculous! If I had to jump in to save a drowning person I would knock them out first so they can’t pull me under. The people yelling “you better jump in” are fucking idiots. They should have jumped in but they’re black and everyone knows black people can’t swim.

Looks like they were trying to get him more comfortable with swimming originally he was on a string, the wood they had him swim too was just too far and he swam to it well enough the guy was comfortable tossing the string so he could get to the wood. The rest was current and panic. Dude got scared of being on a log not being able to swim well in open water. Just wish the other guy remembered rule number 1 of saving a drowning adult

Those of you who are saying things like “why didn’t he just float” and “he panicked” etc know absolutely NOTHING about the currents on the Niagara River (which this video takes place on). The currents are otherworldly and very, very deceiving. It’s not just the churning water that will kill you, it’s the “calm” water which is even more dangerous. In fact, a TRAINED POLICE DIVER named Craig Lehner died in this very same spot only one year before this. And he was trained to swim in bad conditions!

In first aid you are told that in case of saving someone who is drowning, you have to knock him and take him from behind so it cannot grab you. At that point the rationality is gone and your instinct just tells you to grab something and go to the surface. Same as fire, there rationality is gone and you just run, like an animal, away from fire, that’s why people was jumping from twin towers on 9/11.

I think the rescuer acted on emotions and didn’t think it through
“dial 911” the fuck are they gonna do?
There was a kid who lasted more than 16 minutes in water that got saved by scuba divers. 911 still coulda saved them.
Nah
*something happened*
“nah it didn’t”
lol
more than a couple of dumbasses could?
they gon jump in and drown too bro
If he did nothing, he would have just floated on the top. Incredible how people kill themselves. Granted, it’s probably very scary to dip under the water, being deprived of oxygen but if one jumps into water the least they should be aware of (if they can’t swim) is to remain calm. Float. Just not face down, LOL.
probably the guy’s first time swimming. Panic makes people do stupid things
no because this happened by my house. thats the niagara river that goes over niagara falls the undertow instantly pills u under in seconds.
ikr my friend almost drowned once and i jumped in and she did the exact same thing to me, atleast we survived lmao

Watched a video about that currently, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEtbFm_CjE0
Looks like he gets sucked in, propably thats also why there is a lot of wood there

yo that cant be delta p, there cant be different presures just like that. A current, yes maybe but not delta p
Oh yes, the late night Delta P
that interesting thank you
