It was as helpful as throwing a drowning man both ends of the rope.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I once saved someone from drowning.
I certainly do get at the end of my rope at times. We all do.
It was very, very challenging being on this thing called the gimbal. It would throw you around, give you whiplash, and they'd tie you down.
We didn't have the lane ropes, we had to get up higher in the water to avoid the little waves.
I'm still at the end of my rope because I find myself not handling things well when I travel.
If I do hit that rope and do a hop, skip and a jump and get up as high as I can, I'm just going to hold my breath, because I know i'm going to hear all kinds of scar tissue popping.
I honestly think if I would've tied my suit and there wouldn't have been any water rushing through it, I think I could've gone at least a second faster.
When you're drowning, you don't say 'I would be incredibly pleased if someone would have the foresight to notice me drowning and come and help me,' you just scream.
You don't need a rope to pinch a stranger's butt.
When you reach the end of your rope, tie a knot in it and hang on.
