This past year we have had 3 members of our high schools swim team die...

the first was on their annual trip to hawaii,,, drowned while surfing

the second hung himself in depression a few months ago

and the third just this week... hung himself exactly 2 months after the second...


it is truly tragic and the swim coach feels terrible

We had a skydiving team in our college and on one fairly warm day one of my buddies just bursted into flames in mid-air around 3000' MSL. He completely disintegrated in the flame by the time we all hit the ground. RIP champ.

See you just don't know the seedy underside of your schools swim team... See the one that died surfing was the first hung ones lover and when he died the guy went to the second hung guy and tried to console himself but found the sex to be only bleh so killed himself... in that time the second guy feel madly in love with the first hanger and well you know the rest...

normal? don't they shave their bodies?

and people don't normally commit suicide, it's just not the norm.

I think they have issues with competive ability and life. sports should never be first in life.

oh well

wow, you guys really arent grateful at all.... i cant believe you

huh?

should we be grateful?

Yea, you're pretty much free falling into friction of air. If the temperature is hot enough you can burn up depending on the angle of attack, much like a space shuttle.

Sorry to hear, the surfing incident is bad, but suicide is never the way out.
