Some claim not to go swimming
during the Sefira
for the same reason we do so
during the
three weeks, so as not to put
oneself in danger
during that period.
The Steipler zt"l
opposed this argument and held
there is no such Chumra and
one may go swimming
during the Sefira.
They tried to argue and told
him that some
frum people drowned while
swimming during the Sefirah.
The Steipler answered,
"they didn't drown because
they swam during the Sefirah.
They drowned because
they went swimming in
dangerous areas where
it is forbidden to swim and
there were no lifeguards."
