People make mistakes, get distracted, have mental lapses. I am certain they never in a million years wished for this. Their lives are forever altered in a horrible way.
I get you are some sort of professional competitive lifeguard, and are probably hyper aware around water.... but you really need to be more sensitive in your choice of words. For all you know, they are a poster here. And yes, they will probably blame themselves for the rest of their life, with or without your comment.
