Even more interesting is the fact that this is not ordinary behaviour for bats. They only swim in stressful situations which suggests someone must have thrown the guy into a body of water just to take that shot.

Or it somehow managed to wind up in the water mistakenly, and the person decided to film rather than attempt to help.

Attempting to help may have just succeeded in injuring the bat, too, though.

Hard to say how the situation came about but it's interesting any way.

I wouldn't help a wild bat. The general rule is if you can approach a wild bat, it is sick. Worst case it is rabies. It's just not worth the risk.
