I'm wondering the same thing. He was supposedly a strong swimmer. I wonder if it was heart related or if he had a severe cramp and panicked and went under. Last summer I had a cramp so excrutiating in my inner thigh while swimming in the pool that it made me cry and panic. Had I not been in the pool and able to get to the side quickly, I might have been in trouble (still don't know why that happened...)


KSH- wow- what an account. Can you say "anger management class."
Maybe it was a jerk who was trying to put one of the competition out of the way, but maybe not. Seems like a harsh reaction to me, but I wasn't there so I don't know what the situation was really like for that guy and how in danger he felt at that point. How violent and scary, tho! Glad I'm so slow that nobody tries to take ME out like that!
