It’s impossible for anyone to get drown in Dead Sea!

Dead Sea is ten times more salty than the Mediterranean and three times more salty the Great Salt Lake in Utah

The Dead Sea has a very high density because of its salt content, which would make it impossible for you to sink.

Dead Sea lies in the border of Israel and Jordan and is the lowest place on Earth. It’s a popular tourist destination. In fact, tourists are encouraged to swim in it because it acts as a health treatment.

Originally called the salty lake in Roman Era, visitors to Judea had begun to refer to the sea as the ‘Dead Sea’, as the water was devoid of all life-forms, including plants.

So, there’s no fear of sharks, and most of the tourists enjoy a mineral rich swim like mud treatments and salt baths which leads to many health benefits.

Biblically, the Dead Sea was a place of refuge for King David. It was one of the world’s first health resorts (for Herod the Great), and it has been the supplier of a wide variety of products, from balms for Egyptian mummification to potash for fertilizers.

The Dead Sea is landlocked and in the lowest valley on earth. All the minerals of the surrounding countryside get washed into one pool, which in turn gets baked by the sun. This concentrates the salts so much so that the Dead Sea becomes times as salty as the ocean, which defines why people don’t drown in it.

The more salt is dissolved in water, the denser it becomes. Objects which drop in water stop sinking when they displace a mass of water equal to their body mass.

In dense, salty water, a little body displaces a lot of mass, and most of the body stays out of the water so, it’s hard to drown a person when most of their body is floating on top of the water. The Dead Sea water has a density of 1.24 kg/litre, which makes swimming similar to floating.
