To my knowledge; Dry-land drowning is a very rare type of drowning that occurs when a small amount of water enters the lungs and destroys the lungs from within creating inflammation of the lung tissue and the deterioration of lung function over time. Victims generally act unharmed with until symptoms erupt after the fact. As I understand, symptoms include, but are not limited to, shortness of breath, dizziness, and incontinence. The victims of dry-land drowning pass with the normal effects of drowning though they are nowhere near water.
