Every year for some reason there seems to be 3 drownings in the lake. I thought there were only two this year, but I was reminded of another. Anyway, sadly this one was an off duty fireman. Apparently he dove off a boat and never resurfaced. He was only 24 years old. I would presume alcohol was involved..RIP Mason!

RIP indeed
He maybe has been eaten now and may never resurface

It was sad. I saw some f those firefighters in February. They stopped at the local shopping center and bought girl scout cookies. I wonder if he was one of them?

Every year, never fails...unnecessary drownings. You would think the young fireman would have been more cautious, but we just never know.

I guess it is possible he just got disoriented in deep water, but we will never know. Seems quite unlikely with his background, they probably train in water rescues

If they did an autopsy, which they often do in those cases, they no doubt know if he had a heart attack, physical condition, etc. But no, most will never know the reason, if anyone does.
