Thank goodness for the vest

I'm not sure what good the vest did lol

Seems like she stood up straight at the very end

She's definitely not in the deep end

And I think the water was the least of her problems

It did give her some padding when her torso hit the edge of the pool.

Yeah a LOT of padding, I imagine that would've hurt like a motherfucker and possibly bruised/cracked a rib if she wasn't wearing a vest

You're thinking like an old person. Children spring back from EVERYTHING. I watched my cousins kid run full speed into a solid wood door, bounce his face off of it, say "woops" and then, before any adults could react, he backed up and proceed to sprint into it again, face first, like it would somehow work the second time. Same result. We had to physically stop him from trying a third time (this displeased the child). Children are invincible to their own machinations. Side note, I believe through sheer power of will, he would have eventually gotten through that door. His dad was not willing to test the hypothesis, however, so we will never know.

Children get seriously hurt all the time. Especially around pools.
