The preventable event happened Sunday 27th, in the city of Morros, Maranhão.
A party had been in full force, with everyone consuming alcohol, partying and enjoying themselves.
The male (Identity net yet released), had been in high spirits and even recorded some of his friends and himself having fun before then making his fateful and intoxicated decision to go swimming, where he drowned as a result.

Pedro Carbo, Guayas, Ecuador - Jul, 2018
This is the horrifying moment a tourist plunged to his death in the background as a rapper filmed a music video.
The shocking clip shows Ecuadorian artist Don Day filming a video for hit song Hablando con la Luna at the bottom of the Laguna Salto de Oro waterfall.
But in the background a figure can be seen plummeting from the top of the falls after appearing to slip.
The man slams into the water, sparking a frenzied rescue attempt from Don Day's crew.
According to witnesses, the victim was part of a tourist group who had nothing to do with the production of the video.
There was a group of tourists jumping from the top of a waterfall and one of them, despite the warnings, launched himself - and manged to re-surface, said onlookers.
Shooting of the music video was then suspended.
The victim was identified as Carlos Pontoon, 33, who drowned after throwing himself from the top of the waterfall in an 'adventure challenge'.
He was declared dead on arrival at a local hospital.

This video was originally shared in a discussion about scuba diving accidents. I am sharing a shortened version here, but the full video can easily be found on YouTube and other sites.
Scuba diving scares the shit out of me. And watching this video, it is the same feeling as dying on a far away planet. Nothing in the environment supports human life. Sheer panic.

7-31-2018, Beibeilamu pool, Fuzhou, mainland China
On the 31st of July, 2018, a child's first birthday becomes a nightmare as one year old Xiao Ai's lifebuoy flipped over and plunged her headfirst into the water. Though the other child attempted to save her, even trying to pull her back up and give her the floatation device back, he simply could not. He can be seen trying to grab the attention of the nearby woman, which initially went ignored as the mother batted away at the child then turned her back on him as if annoyed, going back to her mobile device.
After administering CPR, the mother ran to a local clinic, but the doctor there refused to provide care due to inadequate equipment. By the time she found a taxi and made it to Jinshan Provincial Hospital, more than 20 minutes had already passed. The baby girl’s lips were already purple and her body was cold. Heartbeat resumed but no respiratory response.
She was pronounced brain dead at the hospital and could not breathe on her own without assistance. Information on her current status could not be found. According to comprehensive land media reports, the mother of the baby girl said that the staff originally put on the baby girl a vest-style life jacket, but the mother thought it was too big, so she replaced it with a sitting swim ring.

Repost with longer video + original audio and some context.
If you're retarded like me and took a while to find the kid, he jumps into the pool by the ladder near the bottom of the clip and sinks near instantaneously, around the 16 second mark.
Context:
On August 14th, 2022, an unnamed 8yr old from the Lianyuan city of China drowned in a public pool after a minute of struggle despite the presence of others nearby. At one point, another child could be observed jumping near him, though he must've not seen his struggling as a sign of genuine distress.
There are a number of articles that mostly regurgitate the same information. The one below makes an interesting note of how children may not have the presence of mind to call out for help like adults would in that situation, and their flails to stay afloat could be taken as play. The article lists the signs of youth drowning to know when it's time to take a child out of the water.

In the suburbs, the girl fell through the ice: the tragic footage was caught on video
A 7-year-old child was returning home from a friend. Usually a first-grader was accompanied along the way by one of the parents. But this time Ulyana went alone and turned to the local river, where she went out for a walk on the ice.
The girl's mother does not lose hope. Rescuers have been searching on land and under water for the 2nd day - the body has not yet been found.
“Yesterday afternoon, my daughter went under the ice on Klyazma. We still can’t find her. Please, if anyone has seen or knows anything, let me know. She was in a lilac coat, military pants and gray boots”

Judging by how the police officers seemed to be afraid of the water I think if she knew how to swimming she would have gotten away
The camera man is incompetent

Drowning
Whether someone just didn't know how to swim or was held underwater or something else, if their lungs filled with water (or perhaps some other liquid) and could no longer breathe, here is where it should be.
