Scary Moment

One of the scariest experiences I've had was a "scary scary" moment. I was about 6 or 7 years old and I was swimming in a decent size pool. At the time I didn't know how to swim so for the most part I stayed in the shallow end. But eventually I got a pool noodle, tied it around me, and ventured off into the deeper end. I was doing fine for a while  I had gone back and forth a few times but then the noodle came untied while i was in the deep end. I was going under and up, under and up for a minute or two. I didn't think anyone noticed because no one helped immediately but after a couple minutes I was saved and all was well.
