How did Sebastián Piñera die?

After a helicopter crash resulting in immersion in water, drowning occurs when the person inhales liquid, which impedes the exchange of oxygen in the lungs. Initially, there may be a struggle to breathe, but the lack of air eventually leads to unconsciousness. Oxygen deprivation to the brain causes irreversible brain damage within minutes, followed by cardiorespiratory arrest and, ultimately, death by asphyxiation.
