    thing about a pool is it’s only a few feet deep. you sink in the ocean, you just keep sinking. you get lost in the ocean, there’s a whole lot of ocean and you’re moving from the point that you fell into. it’s night in the ocean? no one is finding you, even if they pass by a few dozen feet away. all this, and you’re constantly fighting the whole time you’re in there without food or fresh water. Between that and temperature shock, you’re losing consciousness in 12 hours in the best case scenario and, depending on the temp of the water, maybe only a few minutes. Once you’re lost in the open ocean you are ggggoooooonnnnneeee.
