I'm a good swimmer and the only time I've ever been scared in the water was when I was using one of those damn pool noodles. These colorful toys just love to turn you upside down in the water. They're dangerous as hell.

If you are a good swimmer, being upside down is not dangerous. You let the noodle go and swim normally.
