#7: Did You Taste That Water?
Although we never try to do it on purpose, at least most of us don’t, you can never fully stop water from getting into your mouth while you are in the pool. Try as we might, there’s no way to avoid getting some water in our mouths while we’re swimming. Although at times this can be gross, it may actually save your life one day.
If you’re swimming in any pool and get a metallic taste in your mouth, it’s time to doggy paddle over to the ladder fast. When there is an electrical shortage in water it will cause the water to get a metallic taste. The filter or some other equipment in the pool could have shorted out and electrocution could be coming next.
