This comment section is so relatable that it gives me confidence Knowing I'm not the only one in the world that doesn't know how to swim

I want to float instead of drinking a whole entire pool.

*me watching the video* : im gonna end Michael Phelps whole career *me in pool* : the only way to move around is by sticking to the edge

"This is wrong, this is like panicking," classic visual comedy😂

I 'swam' (more like waddled) to the deep end once without knowing then my sister told me I was in the deep end (knowing I can't float/swim) and then I panicked and started to drown. Confidence is quite important. It's all in our heads.

The water being so deep is giving me anxiety and I’m not even in the pool

The crazy part is I know how to swim but I don't know how to FLOAT 😭😭😭😂😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣🤣

I can swim in the shallow end but once I can't touch the floor, I start to panic without even trying to panic. Edit: I finally learnt how to get over that fear and now can swim anywhere! It's crazyyyy guys, I just practiced, challenged my mind and WOWWWW!!

The fact that this guy has taught me more in 5 minutes compared to what my school taught me is actually shocking, at school they only teach you to swim laps not how to float or even equalise pressure my squeezing your nose than breathing out

I ran out of air watching this. Help?

I almost drowned just sitting and watching this. This whole video gave me anxiety. Lol

“Just feel your body float up to the surface” Me: *body continues to sink*🙃

Step number 1 go to the shallow end of the pool Me: hold on let me bring my life jacket first

A dead body will come up at 3:39 if it was me

I think if I had him as my swimming teacher I would have learnt how to swim in a short period of time, lol... His explanations are so good :)

I am 8 years old. And if you want to swim, there are 2 parts, 1 part: learning how to float. 2:learning how to move forward. This video was rlly helpful! My mom already taught me how to move forward so I just needed to float. This video was perfect! Tysm!

0:59 that's how i float. Haha. 😄

How do you stay calm?😂

My guys literally chillin at the bottom of the pool

Floating is the one thing I never got right about swimming. Thanks for this video. At least now I know the basics and can practice till I get it right

3:23 scared the shit out of me. If the deep end is *that* deep, then I don't think 5 steps can help me.

Actually at 4:18: You should REALLY be careful while swimming next to one of those drains at the bottom of the pool. They can create problems for people and there have been accidents where people get "stuck" next to those drains and not be able to get up because there are some sort of "suction" if you are close to those drains. Avoid them if you can.

I’m only watching this so I don’t humiliate myself when I go to visit my friends at the beach

I like to practice the panicking technique 😆

Am I the only one who gets scared by deep water? I feel I'm in the ocean and something is going to attack me.

One of the best how-to videos I've seen in a long time; bravo sir!

I love your instructions. It sounds way better than the other videos I’ve watched. I’m 25 atm and I’ve never had enough balls to learn to swim. I was planning to learn through classes, but the pool is deep and that alone is holding me back from going. That and a bit of embarrassment. However, I know a hotel that has a five foot pool. Shitty depth but I’m a shitty swimmer. I just came from your other video. I’ll be trying the other one first before this one.

"This is wrong, this is like walking" *man continues to float perfectly lol

So you are saying I need to do moon walk under the water to float🚶🚶🤔🌚

My father has always been saying relax your body to float but since I saw this video I realised that conservation the air within your body is the essential thing to float

Thanks 😎 I can do this The fears we don’t face become our limits

I love the wide shots of the pool when you swim down!

Who else watching this to prepare for summer 18? Lol

As someone who really wants to learn how to float in the water and afraid of the deep, I find this video very helpful and give confidence that I will be fine next time if I do this steps. Thank you very much 😊

Coach: Don't panic! Everything will be fine Me: 1:00

I'm learning swimming and I've sort of got the basics, I think the last part is to learn how to float in the deep end and to get over my fear. the video initally was scary for me but watching him at the end of the video swimming down to the bottom then calmingly floating up was kind of soothing so i hope my fear goes away soon and i get to get back to swimming after Covid is over :)

WHO STILL TRYING TO LEARN HOW TO SWIN AND IT 2018

Thanks a lot Christian, your video helped me. I've never feared the deep end even when I jumped the first time, but I could only swim and not float. After I tried your technique, I can float with ease. Thanks a lot.

I needed this. One of the tests at navy bootcamp is swimming and I can't swim. So thank u for this video 👍🏾

Friend : Just jump in and stay calm. You'll be fine trust me. My brain: Here is a thousand reason why you shouldn't do that. 💀

The channel with the best diving content. Great video as always 😁

I hear a lot of people asking what is the point of floating, well, here is one of the many reasons: Floating technique is very crucial when you are out in a lake and your muscles getting tired / exhausted and you cannot swim anymore. What you do is take a deep breathe, float on your back a bit to regain some energy for your muscles to relax. Keep your breathe half a minutes. Breathe out but then you have to flay your arms a bit like in 1:21 in this video so you don't sink. After that repeat the process again by deep breathe , hold it and lay on your back again to float to rest. This technique is just for YOU to survive when you are getting so tired that you can't swim any meters anymore. You basically just buy yourself some time to rest at one spot in the lake until you have energy back to your muscles so you can continue to swim back to shore. Without this technique , you would just sink and die whenever your muscles are too tired too work. You can also use this technique to swim on your back as well since it is less tiring than to swim on your chest facing the water. You can float AND swim at the same time which is very crucial for less experienced swimmers or swimmers who don't have good stamina for longer swims.

I once went to one of my friends' house because they told me that they wanted to do their homework with me. But once I got there, I saw them swimming in the pool with 2 of my other friends, and then I said "I thought we're gonna do our homework together?" And then one of them said "Oh come on, we're just having fun together. Do you want to join us?" I can't swim but I wanted to join, and so I tried to float like in this video, but instead I was floating at the surface in a sleeping position and I don't know how the heck I managed to do that to this day

Thanks Christian!!! Your videos are super helpful. God bless

I can never be clam. When I try to be clam, I would get even more nervous.

I used to be so scared of water and never knew how to swim. Watching this video made me gain my confidence and now i know how to float!(without drowning lol)

I love the way you describe the steps. You make everything seem so easy and a lot of what you’ve taught in your videos has been easy for me to learn. Taking swim lessons now but I’ve already learned so much from you that I’m ahead of my peers

Thanks Alot for this video.... I gotta try this out this week.,😘😘

That is a very large pool... So great to learn to swim and dive... And clear water too.

1:01 When You Go Dancing But Dont know how

I didn’t even learn to swim until 22 and that was a doggie paddle and it took me so long because I would panic. I was also scared of drowning due to the water. After I got over that fear ( a little) I learned to freestyle swim by 23 (age). I still can not float while staying still and I hope this helps me. It’s so odd because I feel like I should be in the water all the time and I love it but the same time my fear of drowning gets in the way. I will update how this goes for me later on

After watching your video, I learned how to swim in a matter of one hour! For years I tried to learn how to swim but couldn't get rid of my fear of water. Thank you for your tips. God bless you!

that is one beautifully made pool where is it?

Am I the only one sinking to the ground when taking a deep breath 😂

Thank you Christian. Very helpful 👍👏

Wow, the most useful and beautiful teaching of floating in water. Thank you so much

this is the one u deserve 1m subs

NICE....THATS REALLY WORKING!

Thanks for the video super helpful. As a kid swimming in the deep end was always scary for me but now it seems kind of fun. Do you have to pass the deep end test to swim in the deep end?

this is the best video on how to float standing woow, that is always my problem I know how to swim but cannot stop till reaching the pool wall although I know how to float but I feel panic in deep .. now in this video I knew the technique I use to do in floating is wrong I do like stairs or bicycle ... I will practice @christian technique Insha'Allah hope it works with me ..Thanks coach 😊

I never could do that. Next time im in the pool im going to try that

very useful. thank you

Thanks for these tutorials. I want to join the parachute regiment but if I don't know how to swim then I'll never pass basic training. Thank you for these videos and may god be with you

This is a really good tutorial, I can’t wait to try this

it's well explained. thanks a lot sir. thank you for this amazing vodeo

You should lay on your back while floating. Move your arms behind your head in the water. That will help lift your chest and stomach out of the water. Relax your legs at the knee and let the lower legs hand down in the water. Your pelvis and chest should be at water level. Breathe normally or slowly while briefly holding your breath to maintain buoyancy. Use your arms and legs to move your body through the water. You can float and swim in the water like this indefinitely without getting tired.

I always wanted to try this! I will do this after the pandemic, thanks!

These tips are awesome, thank you.

1:25 *panics when he realizes he didn't hear all the steps before trying to float*

You make this look so easy even I know it's as easy as it seem but the anxiety and panick attack already ruin everything but at least now I know the steps

Thank u so much! ur swimming videos helped me a lot because I’m trying to learn how to swim thank u so much! ❤️

Great tips, seemed easy but not sure if it’s this easy for beginners 😂 thanks for sharing this, 👍

Wish I could take one to one lesson,U teach very clean and understandable.Regards

My biggest problem is that I was kicking incorrectly. You make it seem so easy. I’ve almost drowned twice, and I need to learn how to swim.

Thank you for the help now I'm gonna try this and conquer my fear of water

I was told on how to swim by my cousins but they never told me how to float. This video saved me, thank you.

Last part gave me serious anxiety

You make it look so easy

I'm currently at a swimming lesson and my instructor isnt the best at explaining so your videos have been helping a lot! Now I have a little more hope about actually learning how to swim! Thank you!!

I always come back to watch this moment 0:55. Always makes me laugh out loud 😂.

I remembered when I was a kid and I was 6.5ft and the pool was 8ft I recalled my P.E teacher saw me panicking and I even raised my hand which was a bad idea because I sank quicker. Luckily I remembered floating and backstroke...

I was scared for my life the other day, some ass pushed me in the deep end.I legit had an hour of swimming experience, i made it tho...

thank u so much for making my fear of drowning gone i watched this video a year ago and it helped me end my fears and now i can swim thank u so so so much

I will certainly try these this summer 👌

Sir you are amazing you really help me

3:25 you must be out of your mind if you think I'm going to attempt that lmao

Nice vid man. I am new to swimming (been 8-10 days learning) and your videos are amazing 🤜🤛

Thank you, I have never learned to swim, the information you have shared here may assist me should I find myself in a body of water.

I am on vacation near at Beach, im getting ready to learn how to swim lol

3:26 that sh*t deep

Thank you so much... Good job.. I like your way of teaching.. Once again thank you so much..

Thank you for this demonstration.

This is a very good video because I can swim but can't float

My dad always tells me if I want to float in the water just stay safe and feel that you are in your bed🔥😉!

Informative and concise. Thanks.

Wow. This is the best steps. I'm gonna try it.

1:24 He panicked 😭😭

1:14 Moonwalk 😂😂😂😂
