Reply to TIL about Deaf lifeguard Leroy Colombo, who overcame childhood paralysis through swimming and saved a record-breaking 900+ lives during his career. His swimming talent and use of sight rather than sound to identify drowning swimmers allowed him to save people other lifeguards would have missed. by lemontreelemur
I wonder if itd be possible to make a computer program to identify potential drowning victims, which would then bring it to the lifeguards attention and they could check it out.
Being hyper vigilant for an 8 hout shift like that has to be exhausting.

not old as in like rome or something, old as in dilapidated and should be condemned. so many of the houses are so poorly maintained im amazed anyone lives in them.
