Best Answer: Technically, drowning begins as soon as a person loses consciousness. This, of course, varies depending on the circumstances (such as panic, exertion, temperature of water, etc.). In general, it takes about 2-3 minutes to lose consciousness. For the average person, the brain begins to die after about 3 minutes of oxygen deprivation. Death is complete after about 7 minutes.
Facts. 1  Drowning is preventable. 2  Drowning is a silent event. Children will rarely scream, call out or splash for help. 3  Submersion takes less that 10 seconds. 4  Losing consciousness takes 2 minutes. 5  Permanent brain damage takes only 4-6 minutes. 6  Drowning is the second leading cause of accidental death for children under 14 years of age. Children under age one most often drown in a bath tub, toilet or bucket. Approximately 3,500 children are treated in emergency rooms for near drowning incidents each year. For every child who dies by drowning, another four are hospitalized. Many never recover from brain damage that occurs while they are under water.
