Water droplets and waves explode outward in every direction from the impact point. The powerful splash sends water flying onto nearby sunbathers who shield themselves and laugh. Other swimmers in the pool get caught in the spray as concentric ripples spread across the surface.  liquid hitting against something with force making drops fly in all directions
