Death in Colònia de Sant Jordi: Could better precautions have made a difference?

Answer

What should I do if someone collapses while swimming in Mallorca?

Call emergency services immediately on 112 or SAMU 061 if available, and start basic first aid if you know how. If the person is not breathing normally, chest compressions and an AED can be critical while waiting for professionals. Staying calm and acting fast matters more than trying to move the person around unnecessarily.
