You're stuck in open water. What happens?

You drown yourself in the water and end all the pain

>>8527191
hopefully a tide carries you to a island with fresh water.

>>8527191
Die a quite painful way

>>8527198
how so?

>>8527191
i float on my back until i either die or get rescued

>>8527219
Are you a big guy?

Swim back to the side of the pool

>>8527226
average human

>>8527226
Maybe for you?

>>8527191
Find Polaris, find a stick and just navigate until I find any shore

>>8527298
yeah just find a stick
you know, from a saltwater tree

>>8527191
Since you get only get stuck in a solid, I deduce that I am encased in ice and therefore already dead. What happens is of no consequence to me, as I am already gone.

go with the flow

>stuck in open water

mfw literally my life now

>>8527298
so if you are stuck in the middle of the Atlantic you are going to just swim to the north pole?

>>8528112
This won't work. You'd be all wet and freeze once you got there.

>>8527191

I find matches and burn myself just to laugh for a minute cus I know inevetable death will be much more painfull.

>>8527191
you die

>mfw 4+ hrs to go

>>8528112
No fucking moron, I will go east or west after I KNOW which way they are

>>8528105
should've read the thread 2 hours ago, that could be quite exciting.

>>8527191
Well, I guess I build a raft and climb on.

>>8527191
You tread water for a few minutes to a few hours depending on the temperature of the water, then drown.

what happens if you drink a bunch of saltwater?

>>8527191
Scream for TARS

>>8527191
masturbate
you will immediately be seen

>>8527191
Sunburn, dryrot, liver failure, seagull attack, shark and whale attack, severe intestinal infection and probably shock from exposure and body heat loss

Why do I get such an ueasy feeling thinking about this? It's like watching a car slide across the street on ice for 10 seconds before it finally plows into the other cars waiting to be destroyed.

What if you were dropped here?

>>8529180
I would dive to the bottom of the ocean and find one of the decommissioned space craft and then fly that to safety.

>>8528712
kek. you can't drown in salt water.

what you do is you float on your stomach, and tilt your head sideways to breathe. you can maintain this indefinitely.

ever wonder why corpses float?

>>8527191
Have the shipmate throw me a buoy and liferaft and rescue tube thing...
Dont want to sink and get homesick....

>>8529210
>why corpses float?
>due to bloat
as dead tissue decomposes, it becomes gassy

I float majestically on my back and wait for the night sky to reveal my location.

Then I start swimming back like the unstoppable hero I am.

>you can't drown in salt water
Nigger what the fuck

>>8528056
seconded.

>>8527193
It is impossible to drown yourself. Your body will always fight for survival, unless it is unable to do so due to illness.

>>8530056
is this bait?

>>8527219
Think about what will happen when you're gasping for air underwater. Protip: your lungs won't enjoy being filled with water much.

Switch from landwhale mode to ocean whale mode

>>8527191
If you're smart, you use your fingernails to open up your carotid before you drown or something eats you... or you take a box jellyfish straight to the beanbag.

>Pull out an ar15 out of your ass
>Shoot yourself

i get really scared but try to stay alive for as long as possible then probably end up dying

>>8527220
This. If you want to survive.
