Aquatic creatures. Russia

With me once this happened! One summer we went with friends to the river. Took their children with them. There were three of them: me and two of my friends. We got to swim. And the boys with us. To swim they already knew how. The first day was Sunny and clear. But suddenly became dramatically colder, the river went. We have long got out on the shore, and our guys still struggled.

We shout to them: "get Out, the weather is unpredictable!".

And they laugh: "Now, little one!"

And there are two others already swam to the shore, and my son yells, "daddy, Daddy! Help me, someone's leg pulls on the bottom!"

I didn't at first, because two weeks ago, before that, he also made fun of. I told him: "you Have this number no more!"

And he cries. Then I swam to it. He floundered in one place. Started his arm pull to the shore, and I can't do anything.

Then I barely pulled out and said, "go rather to the shore".

And I have to go couldn't because I have someone pulling in the opposite direction. And then I felt that I was immersed in the water and probably lost consciousness. I woke up on the shore. Around me gathered friends. What happened to me down there, I don't know.
