A Chinese woman who was swept out to sea while swimming at a Japanese beach has been rescued 37 hours later after drifting in an inflatable swim ring more than 80 kilometers (50 miles) in the Pacific Ocean.
I was thinking about how many hours it might take me to cry. And then I thought I’d prolly cry a few times. Also I have pretty severe thalassophobia so maybe I’d have a panic attack. Depends on if I could see shore or not.
37 hours in among the waves and half of that under the sun while the other half is in darkness, probably awake all that time?
She must be both physically and mentally scarred for life.

But also this would never happen to me.
At 50 miles… Most of that time is not seeing the shore.
