When i was little I thought life jacket meant magical immune-to-injury jacket and I jumped off the top of the slide landing on my chest on the ground. It was a bad time.
Really? How competent are those people? Do the first two jump in on the close side of her so she drifts away from where they have height for leverage to spin her upright? Because they do. She died. That girl died and if you dont forward this to your fourteen closest friends-
I'm not saying it's low or high risk. The odds of it happening might be low, but a small risk of death is enough to give me pause.
But there is a chance that she gets turned over, face in the water. And she's so awkwardly bulky that a bunch of other panicky kids don't have the wherewithal to get her flipped back over.
I was meaning the fur on it's neck where the hand scritches, it's touching the water and doesn't appear dry either. I know it wouldn't get wet immediately, but still
Now, hold on. How do we know 1 life jacket = 100% alive is the baseline equation? What if ten life jackets is the actual 100% mark, and using just one leaves you only 10% alive?

I’m definitely here for the science.

Going to activate water walking at 50.
OMGamIImguringCorrectly
Keep going, you quitter. I want to see 10,000 life jackets.
AlmostCertainlyNotPickles
"I need help" wtf you think the 24 life jackets are doing??
lonelyrangerofthedreams
With 99 life jackets you can walk on the water
AssholesfullofelbowsTHE3RD
I feel like 12 was pretty optimal.

Try it with straight jackets and see if you get the same results... /s

so at one point you can just walk on water if we follow the trend

Looks like every ship passenger should have 16 life jackets reserved for them.

No, putting life jackets on feet is the limit.

When I was a kid, this boy put his sister's water wings on his legs. It very nearly ended differently.

When the phrase "tits up" is actually a good thing.

Get it wrong and you're feet in the air wearing 24 life jackets and you're dead.

Poor girl. She needed 25 life jackets, I guess :(

Dumb ways to die, or smart ways to not live?!

Yea this seems like it could go incredibly wrong if the floating position resulted in her face being under water.

There are clearly people around... pretty low risk

You mean the people who keep filming when she says "I need help"?

Makes me wonder how many life jackets a cat would need.

At least one.

That fur is staying remarkably dry...

If one life jacket keeps you alive, it follows logically that two life jackets will keep you twice as alive

You must've felt very alive for 12 years then.

Four life jackets make you immortal. Six let's you take the lives of others.

I have spent time immemorial ensnared, for i took the jackets, but left the life behind. I am not God. But I understand... the buckles
