Rescuing a drowning person is extremely dangerous for the rescuer. If you ever find yourself in a similar situation, think first. The first rule of providing first aid says that you should not put yourself in danger. The recommended procedure is to call emergency services first. Do not go into the water unless you have to – throw a rope, offer a stick. Keep in mind that if a person is drowning, they may reflexively grab you and pull you underwater. Professional lifeguards learn escape maneuvers because of this.
