Please tell me the story behind this isn't as alarming as it looks on first glance. (The person in blue looks like they're drowning face-down in the shallows while the others try to reach them?)

Oh, I didn't even think of that.

They're kids, swimming. They all have life jackets on. The kid in the blue life jacket was having trouble getting up onto the shoal because it was slippery, but he was definitely never in danger. He could have just swum back to his parents' boat at any time. I think mostly, he was laughing and being silly and that made it hard for him to pull himself up.
