It is hard to understand how disorienting it is to be upside down unless you've been there. Years ago, after a long day of downhill skiing, I was riding in the back seat of my old S10 blazer. In fact I was laying down on the bench, sleeping, without my seat belt on. The driver was going fairly slowly in crappy weather, got caught in some heavy slush ruts, and after some fishtailing we slid off the side of the road. We got turned sideways and in slow motion rolled onto the right side and then onto the roof. I found myself lying on the inside roof of the Blazer, looking at the dome light, with the two girls up front hanging from their seat belts in front of me. Trying to get my head straight on figuring out what I was seeing, much less doing something as simple as opening the door, was a real eye opener.
I can't imagine being in a similar situation with freezing cold water pouring in.
