Now, how far were they going to have to swim in Lake Erie?

Depends on where they crash. But even if they swam 30 feet below the
surface, in the 70 degree water, according to Dan they'd have 6-12 hours to
get wherever they were going.

I don't know about you, but *I* can't hold my breath that long.
