The first public city pools were filled by water from the aquafiers. A first class swim was clean cold water. Day three was second class. From day five it was third class. Then empty , clean and repeat.
The more I learn about the UK, the more I love it. Intelligent, hard working, visionary people. Please don't turn into the American mind set. Stay uniquely wonderful.
Very interesting story! How deep were those pool? Where did the users of those pools Learn how to swim? I can understand why the rich people that Knew how to swim were upset to swim with ignorant poor people of the lower class that did not know how to swim and wanted to use the pool simply to clean themselves.
I know it sounds crazy. But there are no accounts of swimming before this. Sailors in the Mediterranean routinely drowned just offshore in shipwrecks. If anyone could swim, it would be a sailor, no? This isn't to say some isolated tribes/clans throughout history hadn't figured out swimming. But if they did, it died out with them. I stumbled upon this video researching a book I'm writing where swimming is a key element of the book. In fact "John the Swimmer???", is the title.

Someone: Jumps in the water.
Someone: Hears the fire alarms go off.
I liked this for the small piano joke alone

I raced Kevin over 100m when we were kids. He was slow but had already done the channel.

Sorry but as interesting as this story is, it's untrue that some brit invented swimming in the last 200 years.
I think the Brits were the first developed nation to get their inhabitants cleaned up a bit.

Most leisure pools have closed. Flumes had their day.
Such a better idea than dieting and better for you than running or lifting weights
The view at 2:05 would suggest swimming is not quite as effective as dieting.

Amen
@@Benzknees great bouyancy though
I beg to differ! Many swimmers would benefit from eating properly and running.

good swimmer
