Q: Anyone ever swam in a river/lake in China?

I'm sure I'm gonna all the obvious pollution-related answers for this question, but I'm wondering if anyone has at all? The locals seem to love to take a dip in the various lakes and rivers here (though I'm sure they're oblivious to the risks) but what about you guys? Ever done it? Lived to tell the tale?

The locals are also dying of cancer and an increasing rate. I would stay out of the water almost anywhere in this country. Do not even want to dip my feet in the South China Sea

No. I have too much respect for my body (despite it's outward appearance) to risk immersing it in water that could possibly harm it more.
