Swim Survival Skills Training (S3T) – Rear Head Hold Escape (#3 – option 2)

Take a deep breath and tuck your chin down, turn your head to either side, and raise your shoulders to protect your throat. Take a strong stroke, clap your hands above your head three times and submerge instantly. This drags the victim below the water and typically releases the grasp from the rescuer in order to get back to the surface. If the victim does not release the grasp, apply pressure to the victim’s brachial pressure points (located inside of the upper arm, above the elbow). Swim underwater away from the victim.
