If you choose Option 3 Instruct them to get to the edge of the ice where they were before they fell through and spread their elbows to lift out of the water, comment here.
I wil choose Option 3,talking to my partner to stay calm and get to the edge of the ice where he was before he fell through and try to use his elbow to partially lift himself up or stay afloat until I get him. Option 1 is not the best option because I have to be very careful not to break another ice that can put me too danger. Crawling is good on the part of the rescuer instead of taking steps but first I need to tell my roommate do option 3 and try to stay calm.For the bonus,remove his wet clothes asap and warm him up.
Hooray yayyay! I am still alive! Okay back to saving my partner story. I will run as fast as I can but not too close as the ice might not be stabil. And with a calm voice start yelling on top of my lungs to tell him to swim to the edge of the ice and use his elbows to lift himself partially out of the water. Make sure he understand how to go to the edge of the ice where he was coming from. HONEY! GET A GRIP ON THE EDGE OF THE ICE!... IF YOU HAVE SHARP OBJECT USE IT TO GRIP! KICK YOUR LEGS HARD! GET HORIZONTAL AND ROLL AWAY FROM THE WATER! FAST HONEY! YOU CAN DO IT! I LOVE YOU!
And, what would I do after? Probably cry at this point lol. Did they really have to fall in? 😉
But as others have said you would want to get them out of their wet clothes asap and wrapped and warm. Guess we’re staying put for the night drying clothes by the fire while we regain body heat in a snow cave.
This is what I'll do. I won't want to break the ice any further. When she's out, I'll get her wet clothes off, and then perform a skin to skin contact so she can warm up.
Being that I don't want to get too close to the ice since it is a little weak, I'll have to direct him on what to do.
And when he is out, I'll get his wet clothes off, and then carry out a skin to skin contact, wrapping ourselves in the emergency blanket.
This option seems best to me. I really want her out, but being that we are the only ones around, I don't want to risk handicapping both of us by going too close to the weak ice.
When she is out, I'll surely take off her wet clothes, and then make sure she warms up by conducting a bare hug, so the warmth from me can get to her.
I'll go with option 3.Remember, we are alone in this place, and I'll want to avoid getting into the water with him.
After he is out, I'll remove his wet clothes, and then wrap him up in the emergency blankets.
Best not to risk joining them in the drink. Give them encouragement and advice, but dont sacrifice yourself. Often it id the rescuer and not the rescued that suffers death when water is involved.
Once they are clear of the dangerous thin ice, strip them of their wet clothes and place the two that just got out of the icy water into your snow cave next to the fire. Strip down yourself and gather them into a bundle around you.sothatthey can start to get their core temps up to yours.
OH nice, we survive and Frank still has his fingers. Good. (uhm, not that I'm implying anything by it haha) My boobs saved his cold fingers! Yay!
No, the St-Laurent is the wrost river to be in lol The fleuve is so polluted.
Frank says we should choose Option 3, he wants to survive this lol and he says if his head is out of the water and he can grab hold of the ice, instructing him is the best thing I can do and has less risk of me falling in with him.
And if I get him out of the water, what would I do next, he would need to slide to me, and we could then move to more solid ground. I guess figuring out how to start a fire would be good to help dry his clothes. I'd suggest seeing if he can take anything off and I can pass him anything of mine without me freezing, but that could help him keep warm. Defo make a fire.
I don't want to add another weight to the weak ice, so I'll not go too close.
When he is out, I'll help him take off his wet clothes, and wrap him up in the emergency blanket, and the take him undertake skin to skin contact for steady heat.

Yes, don't sacrifice yourself. If you fall in then what- there is noone else there

The rescuers actually usually end up being in more trouble than the ones they are trying to rescue
