<![CDATA[Question *spoilers*]]>Archived from the IMDb Discussion Forums — Open Water

I know others have brought this up, but I've got a question. Some have said that Susan couldn't just drown by going under the water. She had taken off her weights and all her gear, so just being in a wetsuit, wouldn't have been enough to keep her down. My question is: could she have physically kept herself down long enough to drown, and then, we don't know what happened to her body? After she went down, we see a shot of the "open water". We don't know how long after she did this to herself, is this "shot" of water. Maybe, the sharks got her? For me, if I didn't/couldn't see any relief, lost my loved one, and sharks were circling me, I'd rather take my own life. Whatever happened to my body afterwards, I wouldn't care. Who'd want to die in such a horrific manner!?!

Maybe not soon enough for her to have heard them, but rescue seemed imminent. The irony is still there for me anyway, since it was obvious that someone finally realized the two people were missing. Too late.

She probably was not minutes from being rescued since they had drifted so far away.
Also, she was going to get eaten long before they could get to her.
IN MY OPINION, had there been any planes or boats near enough to rescue her in minutes she would have heard or seen that.

It is very difficult to drown oneself, the body rebels and almost forces you up to the surface to breathe, but who knows? You can drown in a bathtub if you want to, you don't need to be way below the surface to do so. I just thought it was ironic that she was literally minutes from being rescued.
