What do you think will occur when you swim for a long time in the ocean?

Question

When you're in fresh water for a long time, your fingers and toes get puffy because they absorb water. What do you think will occur when you swim for a long time in the ocean?

Answer 1

Dehydrating, tired, sun burn, skin get puffy (as you said), thirsty (not recommended to drink ocean water), black out, cramp, attack by jellyfish, eaten by shark, dead or rescued.

Answer 2

I saw a lady on TV who tried to swim across the ocean. After some days the salt water started getting to her. I think her mouth was bothered and she had to stop.

Answer 3

i think they will just get a little dry, i dont think anything major would happen unless the water is polluted or something. also there are divers that dive under water for extended periods of time and they open their eyes under water a lot, so some of them can now see almost clearly underwater and they could hold their breath for around 3 mins while moving around. i dont know if the salt water would hurt your eyes or not though so dont pratice it unless you know all the facts

Answer 4

you will probably get tired as hell and then stop in the middle of the ocean to rest and then a shark will be swimming by and have you for lunch

Answer 5

you would be long long gone in the previous you even began to adapt. in case you have been in a position to stay 500 million years then ultimately you will possibly substitute into an Amphibian (If evolution exists ofcourse)

Answer 6

Eventually you will be eaten by sharks or get to tired and drown sad but fact

Answer 7

If your technique isn't good, and you swallow water when you breathe, then you're going to start wanting to throw up after half an hour or so.

Answer 8

You'll stand the risk of getting eaten by a GREAT WHITE SHARK!!

Answer 9

You'll have to pee really bad.

You're absorbing all of that liquid through your pores, so you'll end up having to get rid of it.

Answer 10

You'll drown.
