A worker at the residence recorded a video of Murphy before he went to a nearby lake, according to Khaosod English.
Witnesses told Khaosod English that Murphy swam for a few minutes before he seemed to pass out, adding that they did not try to enter the water because the pool was more than 10 meters (or about 33 meters).
