An Influencer Posted A Video Of Herself Unknowingly Swimming In Raw Sewage And Even Admitted Swallowing Some
Source - A woman has been left horrified after she mistakenly swam through “raw sewage”.
Michelle Sky Hayward was confused when she went for her morning dip and realised the water was darker and foamier than usual.
But it was only after she posted a video of herself relaxing in the sea that her TikTok viewers solved the mystery.
The 33-year-old created a response video where she showed clips of the water and people’s comments.
And it gathered over 2.3m views.
“When I was swimming in it, I had no idea that it was sewage,” Michelle, an ex-professional kitesurfer and content creator, told What’s The Jam.
“When I got into the car, my husband said it looked like I had sewage on my face, and we joked about it, not knowing that it was, in fact, true.
“Only once all the comments started coming through did I realise what I had done.
“Some locals also said that they had seen on the news about sewage leaking into the ocean at that particular beach.
“I noticed the water looked darker than usual, especially in that particular spot.
“I had been swimming there many times before, and the water was usually always very clear, but this time it was brown and murky.
“It was also a bit warmer than usual, so I stayed in for a lot longer than I usually would.
“It definitely got in my mouth. I was going underwater and playing around in the foam.
“I tasted some when a wave was breaking near me, and it tasted a lot more salty than usual.”
I think I'm gonna be sick.
It's honestly surprising more stuff like this doesn't happen more often. With how many people live through screens, vs. actually living in real life, it's a shock more people aren't getting clipped by buses, or falling down sewers with open manhole covers and shit like in Looney Tunes.
The next time you're sitting at a red light waiting for people crossing the street to take a right-hand turn, watch how many people cross the street with their heads buried in their phones. Not even bothering to glance up. It's incredible. Some even have earphones in, completely oblivious to what's going on in the real world. But I digress…
Sometimes, people like this "momfluencer" and every other person who bases their entire existence on how many strangers interact with their mindless posts on the internet need a little wake-up call.
And sometimes, that wake-up call comes in the form of poop-water.
I know a lot of husbands clown their wives for doing a lot of brainless things, but fellas need to keep this story in mind the next time their wife leaves the car's headlights on and kills the battery. Or burns the meatloaf. Remember that at least she didn't willingly swim in shit and broadcast it to the world.
And what about her feeling the need to tell everybody she swallowed it?
Totally unnecessary.
She's gonna need a tetanus shot at least, right?
