How do most drowning accidents occur?

  1. From swimming accidents

  2. From boat collisions

  3. From falling off docks, shorelines, or vessels into water

  4. From shark attacks

The correct answer is: From falling off docks, shorelines, or vessels into water

Most drowning accidents occur from falling off docks, shorelines, or vessels into water. While swimming accidents and boat collisions can also result in drowning, they are not the most common cause. Drowning due to shark attacks is rare and not a major contributor to drowning accidents. It is important to be aware of potential hazards near water and always practice water safety to prevent accidents.
