When people got
to shoulder-height depth, we called that area
"the death zone." Panic would set in, and they'd grab everybody
and anybody around them. And I've seen
literally families of 8, 10, or 12 people
taking each other down. - The guards at--we used
to call it "the grave pool." The guards at the grave pool, they couldn't relax
for a second. - To break a new lifeguard in, they'd be assigned to
the death chair, and that was the lifeguard stand
that overlooked the death zone on the Wave Pool. And literally their first
30 minutes to 45 minutes sitting in the death chair,
that new lifeguard would save three to four to five people. People thought that drowning
at the Action Park Wave Pool was part of the ride
