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.

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 is one of my absolute favorite 911 calls. The dispatcher shows so little regard for human life and at one point mocks her, it's just absolutely crazy.
Deborah Stevens had been delivering newspapers when she was caught in a dark area in between two apartment complex buildings and swept out to the river that was just on the other side. The dispatcher continuously lectured her how dare she be driving in water as Deborah pleaded for her life.
The water had moved so quickly it was already up to her windows and she was unable to open the doors because of the pressure.

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.
