Can you elaborate on that last bit? Asking because I suspect that statement itself is an irrational understanding of risk and actually blowing a relative risk out of proportion. Ie, drinking and swimming might have a higher chance of drowning than swimming sober, it probably even has an alarming looking number like “if you drink and swim, you are 1000% more likely to drown than if you swim sober”, but the absolute risk might still be negligible, like a 0.01% to drown sober and a 0.1% chance to drown drunk (numbers pulled from ass for illustrative purpose, even a 0.01% chance to drown sounds high).
