person A: what?
person B: Who?
person A: My son and I went to the beach and had a near death experience. We almost drowned as we got sucked in to an under tow
person B: That's terrifying. I refuse to swim in the ocean. Too scary.
person A: Yes_comma_ it was terrifying indeed!  We were swimming just fine when all of a sudden a big wave sucked us under and spit us out into a deep section. We were seperated and out of breathe.  I surely thought this was the end for both of us. 
person B: Glad you are both safe.
