    And ironically, none of these colors on the chart show natural nude skin colors…

        I guess my point flew right over your head.

        Some people occasionally swim naked. The guide shows how visible different colors are in possible drowning situations.

        So, for a more complete guide, it should also include natural skin colors.

          It was mostly a joke, I’m aware that people routinely swim naked! For a rescuer or lifeguard, it’s important to take that into consideration.

          People can’t change their skin color when going to swim, but they can choose the color of their swim suits.

          Creating a guide to show which color people are easiest to save from drowning doesn’t make any sense for anything but analytical reasons
