    An on-duty lifeguard witnessed the jump and said that Correll’s face and chest smacked the water, and he went under, WOIO said.

    A second lifeguard went into the water and brought the man back up.

    They pulled him onto a board and started CPR.

    Medics arrived and transported Correll to a hospital, where he died, WOIO reported.
