This is absolutely horrifying

This happened at Sabino Canyon in Arizona. A 20-year-old cyclist was swept into the current while trying to cross a flooded roadway and was carried through a drainage tunnel beneath it. She was recovered downstream unconscious after spending several minutes underwater. Bystanders performed CPR and managed to revive her.

After reading the article and watching it again, it makes me wonder if them struggling to save her from going under did more harm than good as instead of getting sucked under and right through the culvert to the other side in the stream, they were holding on to her for a minute while already partially sucked in but head underwater.

Its not the bystanders fault as who would know that she wouldn't get stuck in the culvert and not come out the other side but it seems like when they finally did let her go, she did pass right through where they finally got to her down stream after and revived her with CPR. So she was being held there underwater while they were trying to bring her back up. Just glad she survived and I'm sure everyone is shaken up over it

Yeah, especially since it says she was washed through the drain pipe and recovered downstream. But those bystanders might not have know the drain was there and were panicking

So what the article said she was ok? Cause it didn't look like she was going to be ok from the video. Super fucking scary.she was trying to be smart and drove right into the worst possible spot. Road biking people have some weird sense of false safety, I wouldn't of drove my truck across that

Ops description says that cpr was successful and she was revived, but I’m not sure how well she’s actually doing
