Incident captured on CCTV and shared on social media, a young boy nearly drowned in a private pool in Hua Hin after slipping out of his inflatable ring.

The video shows a group of children playing in the pool, including the victim's older brother and their friends. Initially, no one noticed the young boy's struggle as he submerged silently. The danger was only noticed when one of the children alerted the group.

Parents, engaged in conversation by the poolside, were oblivious to the unfolding drama until a shout from one of the older children altered them to incident. The video reveals a quick-reacting boy diving into the water to rescue his younger brother, pulling him to the surface just in time.

A family member immediately administered first aid, which helped to expel water from the child's lungs and airways. The prompt action restored the boy's breathing, and he regained consciousness, though he complained about feeling pain with each breath.

The child was rushed to Hua Hin Hospital, which the child's parents said was commendably equipped and staffed. The doctors' quick assessment and treatment were crucial; an X-ray confirmed his lungs were filled with water, necessitating a night in the ICU. Fortunately, his condition stabilized, and after a three-day hospital stay, he fully recovered without further complications.

Moral of the story: Watch your kids, bruh.

Beyond 57 metres, divers face oxygen toxicity, a condition particularly pertinent to those venturing to conquer the arch. Symptoms include tunnel vision, tingling sensations, and, in severe cases, seizures or fainting that can result in drowning.

One tragic case in the Blue Hole's history is that of Yuri Lipski, a diving instructor who entered its depths in the year 2000 and never came back. His helmet camera recovered later, provided insights into his ill-fated dive. The footage revealed that, at approximately 91 metres, nitrogen narcosis took hold, causing Yuri to sink to the depths of the Blue Hole.
