    Re: Floating Jeans and shirts for Emergency Situations

    Make a big swirl with your jeans trapping all the air you can and go under water. Fill the rest of your jeans up with air by blowing into them.

    Much easier said than done when you're in water over your head. Give it a try some time. Wearing a life jacket is much much easier.

    Much easier said than done, is right. That former special forces guy with the survival show on cable tried it crossing a mountain lake and gave up about halfway across.

    I saw the same show, the guy made it across, but he had to re-swoop the jeans and trap more air in the legs..... Great tricks for survival if you watch his shows for sure.... I know I have learned a lot since I've watched hi survial shows....
