I tell him, I'm cutting the line and I cut it.

And I've just saved the day because otherwise I'm like stuck next to the ship.

And so the ship keeps going and I do, everything is normal.

At this point, I've done this drill many times before and I pretend to rescue somebody because remember, it's a drill.

There's nobody in the water with me.

And what the ship does is it goes and it makes this wide turn and it just comes back and picks me up.

Well, typically it would be me with,

whoever I'm rescuing, but this is a drill.

So they're going to turn and come back and get me, except for the ship doesn't turn.

It just keeps going and going, and it disappears over the horizon.

And being on a ship is my job, so I know that horizon is three miles away.

And I've been in the water hundreds of times in my life, dozens of times doing this very drill.

But I have never been out of eyeshot of either land or a boat or a helicopter or another human being.

And I am just 100% alone.

I thought, what just happened?

It could be a mistake.

It could be a conspiracy.

They could have forgot about me.

Or maybe, am I imagining this?

Did I go crazy?
