If I'm drowning, I would rather have someone that came in last vs not competing at all. When new lifeguarding standards came out a couple of years ago that required a timed 400 meter swim under 10 minutes, we lost quite a few guards with the city. Amazing how many were unfit enough that they couldn't manage 1:15's for 8x50's pace.
And then there's Surf Lifesaving! That's a whole other kettle of fish that I am in awe of and have great respect for
