Answer 2

Heya.....

See here for the answer.....

--->>> Douglas was fear of his old memories of water many years ago and the current incident also afraid him too much...But he was fully determined to get learnt swimming...

So he hired an instructor for this and started practising swimming daily ,, he practised for day a week for an hour .. The instructor used a device method to teach him..Douglas used to wear a belt around his belly and attached to a rope to pulling up...

By this way he jumped in water and moved his legs but in starting his legs didn't support and gradually he tried to do it...He continued to paddle his legs for swim and in the April instructor said that the training was over he got to swim..

But for being fully determine he tried for himself and swam alone and finally overcome his fear of water....
