Baywatch

By GuardOtto - This FML is from back in 2010 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, while lifeguarding, I saw someone in the wave-pool who appeared to be drowning. So, I jumped in to attempt to save him. Turns out he wasn't drowning, he only had one arm. He yelled at me. FML

hey, if he had really been drowning and you did nothing it'd be a whole lot worse.

WHO THE HELL WOULD GO IN A WAVE POOL IF THEY ONLY HAD ONE ARM????

Someone who is good at swimming with one arm. It's obviously not impossible.

I actually just read an article on yahoo about people drowning and how you don't scream bc of lack of oxygen to the lungs an you don't flail your arms instead you try to push down with your arms to propel yourself out of the water. they said it looks nothing like you would think it would and it doesn't look anything like they portray in the movies.

LOL. Well, at least you still tried to do your job. Can't ask for more than that.

where in the FML does it say he cried?

someone let Tommy lee jones know that we found the one armed man!!
