You should definitely glance over this -especially if you own a hot tub. An average of 170 healthy, able-bodied American adults drown a year, in their hot tubs and bath tubs. People typically get into a hot tub and drink to relax and ease tensions that have accumulated over the day at the office. And they like their bath to be hot. And while any bath water over 104 degrees Fahrenheit is generally considered extremely hot water, it is no surprise that random samplings of hot tubs has yielded temperature ranges of 104 degrees up to 109 degrees. Heat leads to dilation of the blood vessels. Add alcohol to the picture, one will experience a drop in blood pressure. When you put those two things together, you get more than you bargain for, setting the stage for unconsciousness. Add masturbation to the picture, the risks increase dramatically. Those who survived a near-drowning were luckly enough to have a hot tub partner who "... simply saw them go unconscious and slip under the water..." In other words, unconsciousness comes unannounced, suddenly, and without warning. As a masturbator would drown alone, there is a void on statistics as to how often this really happens. If sex toys were used, it would not be uncommon for embarrassed family members to "sanitize" the scene, before reporting a death to the proper authorities. This is just another reminder that a masturbator, in certain situations, is unsafe at any speed. Use discretion when masturbating in any unfamiliar or exotic environment.
That's really interesting I'm wondering where you acquired your information also I have a question and if I sound naive it's because I am. Anyone who has had a few drinks while being out in the sun all day understands the dilation of the blood vessels and alcohol and its effect. What I don't understand is where masturbation comes in at, what happens when you masturbate that adds to the risk of drowning?
