Nope. I took swimming lessons for a year. No matter what technique they taught me I couldn't water peddle for more than 30 seconds. They'd teach you to then flip over on your back and float to catch a breath, but I just couldn't. I'd get exhausted and just sink down to the bottom. I tried building up my cardio and did weight lifting to get more strength, but I still couldn't keep up the swimming for more than 2 minutes
Before I got married and put on weight I couldn't float either. Any attempt and my feet/legs would pull me vertical and down under the water if I did nothing.
He's 100% correct. I'm one of those people that doesn't float. My aunt tried teaching my how to swim when I was little and she ended up throwing up her hands and telling my mom that I don't float.
@@figaro-dg5c5 There are some people that are less buoyant than others and I'm one of them so I sink more than I float. I have lived it my whole life my friend.
That's what makes David Goggis so nuts. Quite nearly fainted of exhaustion and drowned crossing the Arkansas being starkly reminded of my non-bouyancy back in my party days.
At swimming club the coach said you just have to relax and you will float. So I just lay flat on my back at the bottom of the pool until she got the message.
@@nunyabidnes6010 it does say that in normal research but doing more digging. some peoples bodies are different than others. their mass ins't like ours. so they have a very hard time floating/ or can make themselves sink to the bottom with ease.
I couldn't get into ranger school because I couldn't pass the swim test, where you swing in full uniform with web gear and a rifle. My leadership weren't happy about. 1SG sent me to a swim instructor, and he told the my technique was find, but I don't float. 1SG asked him what the hell that meant, and the instructor straight up said "I've seen rocks sink to the bottom of a pool slower than him, so if you ever need an anchor, that's your man right there."
"We are transferring you as a detachment to a NAVY waters op" "Sir? I'm the least qualified, I don't float" "They know, that's why you're wearing the rope"
I had a major floating problem too. I did find I could swim a whole lot better just doing it fully under the water. When i tried to swim ON the surface, all the energy went to staying 'up', and I made terrible forward progress. But zooming under the water, and only popping up for air every couple meters, actually worked ...somewhat. Then puberty caught up with me and I got flotation devices. Although my hydro-dynamic profile was not so sleek anymore hehe.
It not like the guy can’t swim he just can’t do it with an entire rig on. He could swim in a pool. Swimming is a basic survival tool, everyone can learn to do it without medical limitations.
My science teacher in high school was a SF vietnam veteran and he had that problem too. He said as soon as he stopped swimming, he sank like a rock. He was even tested by doctors because they were amazed. He was a great man and a fantastic teacher. He sadly passed away about 8 years ago from cancer.
My uncles black and he doesn’t float or swim but we got him to wakeboard 😂 dude sinks like a stone without a good life vest on. He’s solid muscle too so I’m sure that doesn’t help.

I have tunes in my ears from ear aches as a kid to and go under 3 or 4 feet of water with feeling like my eardrums will pop. Never hears of anyone else with these problems
@@sethhankins9953 It's common for a lot of us that had (or have) tubes in our ears. Alergies and not being able to handle going very far underwater is something I always will live with. I think I could go deeper than 3 or 4 ft but I'm not sure.
That's not from the tubes. You have small eustachian tubes that you can't equalize. The tubes inserted helped when you were small. That's a congenital issue
Well the whole thing is screwy. Nobody really knows they’re going to the true top. So you join hoping to do small unit direct action missions? SEALs are a damn good bet for most dudes. Far more likely to be shooting people on the regular during our recent wars than most SF guys unless you wound up CIF. Really the most comparable unit would be Ranger Battalion…which not surprisingly is where a massive percentage of the units recruits come from.
He is 100% correct. I’ve had people try to teach me for years and all gave up. Not because I’m a difficult student but because I sink like a rock. I have never been able to float.
My goodness I thought I was the only one. No matter what I’ve done I just don’t float. People say oh you just need to practice more and you’ll get it. NO. My BODY quite literally is non buoyant.
in a way i could imagine that being kinda cool though ngl, i float like a mf, can barely stay under if i try, itd be cool to go to the beach and just walk around under water
When I was a kid I used to get so mad because the neighbor lady weighed over 300 lbs and she could just lay there floating. The only way I can float is if I hold my breath.
Fat is less dense than water, muscle is more dense than water. Bone is a quite more dense than water. The fatter you are the better you float ironically
We had swim class in high school and luckily my health teacher was very aware of this fact. I got to demonstrate to the class the difference between a rock and an egg. He had me tuck my feet to my chest and the whole glass got to watch me blub blub to the bottom. It’s honestly amazing any of the SEALs can float. Muscle isn’t great for buoyancy
Same here. I was 11B infantry on fast track in my stretch. Not to toot my own horn but I was a stud. I kicked ass at just about everything i did military related. I just loved it. As a Midwest hillbilly who grew up on the Illinois river, I got very very humbled when it came time to tread water. Swim? Sure. I'll bang that out. Sit there and not drown? That was a whole different set of muscles for me.
I tried helping some guy float cuz he never had in his whole life, but he was just so skinny he would do the same his ass would just sink, his wife would lightly hold him tho so he could float the best he could
I was a lifeguard and swim instructor for a year and I met at least a dozen people in that time that could not float and I'm speaking of people from children to 50 years old
I told my brother I could float vertically in the water without moving, and he didn't believe me. The next time we went swimming I showed him. All I do is control my breathing. It's easy in a pool but you have to move a bit more in a lake or ocean.
Tilt your head back? Your mouth should be at the top of your body when floating. Saying the water comes up to your forehead means you are not tilting your head back. If the top of your head is sticking out of the water. Tilt your head back so your mouth is up at the top of your body.
@@ShatteredF1re7733 bro I think he just means that he doesn't float.... Everybody learns at first to be flat on your back with a full breath of air in your lungs, if you still sink, you likely have another factor at play, like perhaps your bones are higher density than average, or perhaps your body retains too much water and not enough fat, it could be a combination of all of the above and more, I doubt they needs tips on RUclips though, they have likely already tried to learn to swim and the first lesson in swimming is floating and treading water
My 200 pound mastiff couldn't float. He dropped like a rock under water when we hit a ledge. I pulled him up by his collar. Turned out not only did he not float he could not swim. 😮
I cannot float. My high school pys ed teacher tested me over and over....She finally said I was the only person she ever saw that could not float, unless I move my arms. I go down feet first, and sort of hover just off the bottom.
YES! We do exist! I played polo for a few years. Try as they might, different swimming instructors and coaches couldn't get me to float. The only things that float are my lungs, the rest of my body sinks like cinder blocks. The second I relax and stop moving, I start sinking fast! Legs first.
I wanted to be a SEAL. Got in amazing shape and swam everyday. I went to a recruiter and was on my way. The recruiters like potential recruits with SEAL contracts to attend group fitness meetings with other recruites and enlistees. Long story short one of the enlistees told me although I am in the best shape of the group I suck swimming and can’t float. Urged me to reconsider. Pretty much told me what I already knew but was afraid to admit to myself. So I did. Got to love the hard truth. That dude saved me from making a mistake. Anyways I ended up going SOF contract and then failed my MEPS. Lol! One of the worst times of my life but I thank the lord it happened this way. After lots of thinking I came to the conclusion that I wanted to be a “cool guy” but was in fact not tough enough. Probably not even tough enough for basic training!
As a black dude who can swim, I do not float! Every single second above water is earned. One of my uncles was the only one of his four brothers who floated. He was a navy diver in Vietnam.
I'm so glad someone with authority said it because i've always never understood how people just, sit there in the water. Head above water. Not wading or anything. Just floating. It's insane to me. Literal superpower.
only 1 of 6 Army SF goes to Dive school. Army Dive school is for means to get to land. They are not train to take over ships or lock from submarines. All Seals are combat divers only 1 of 6 Army SF are.
What he is actually saying is hilarious, it’s Obvious why, he is literally the best of the best, so he comes up with an excuse, and quickly contradicts the excuse and says he can do it. If you ask any other person why didn’t you become Delta? Well no one would actually ask anyone this..
Yeah he has negative buoyancy like goggins, watching goggins with his hands and legs tied with his head going under water immediately and him fighting to keep it up is funny and scary to watch
"With very few exceptions, everyone floats, however most people think they are that exception when in reality 99,9% are not. It is the degree of flotation and how easy it is to float that is influenced by your body's make-up. People usually float to varying degrees and in varying ways."
Thanks man. I posted 4 comments even though I never comment. I just had to tell people they were dead wrong. How are you 40 years old on this Earth and don’t understand buoyancy? People out here are literally arguing w science.
I cannot float, but when I was in the eighth grade, I got invited to the Miami invitational swim meet. I beat the Florida high school record. For the hundred freestyle. 1985 cuttler ridge
@@rumski2926 floating isn't a skill, there's s bone density and fat percentage that keeps people floating, less body fat and people who have genetically denser bones can't float, not everyone is you
@@rumski2926 yea no, I can float don't project on somebody you know nothing about boy, depending on bone density which can be genetic, or percentage of fat to muscle people will be unable to float, doesn't matter how many times you say "just take a deep breath and relax" because they'll be relaxing under water drowning because you can't take a hint because you're an idiot who doesn't understand biology and how different people are from YOU.

Exactly. As if the state of contraction of your muscles have anything to do with floating whatsoever. Even with deep breaths, many people don’t float.
I feel seen 🤣
You might not float but you can still swim. Seals is different because on top of being negatively buoyant you also have a bunch of equipment at times
Same here! 😅
Alls you gotta do is breath in more air and relax more

If your head doesn't stay above water without effort, "degrees of flotation" means nothing.
Breathing is kinda important.
Lol I can’t either!
He's not alone in that regard! I don't float, either.
Im so glad my family understands this concept 😂 we have a few guys that are rock solid, sink unless they're swimming good
People really dont get it - water sucks A LOT.
And yet some people keep saying Delta is better than Team 6.. Man water warfare is nuts!
Delta is better.
The overwhelming majority of missions take place on land.
I cannot float, but when I was in the eighth grade, I got invited to the Miami invitational swim meet. I beat the Florida high school record. For the hundred freestyle. 1985 cuttler ridge
I feel you brother.... if I exhale I sink as fast as a rock😂
I joined the Army as a 11Bravo. I refuse to be on a huge target in the ocean. Once that ship is hit you shark food.
Not gay .couldn't get in .Navy
Hey bud, go watch "Wartime Stories" 's episode on the USS Indianapolis.
Even better, do it juuust before you are about to go to sleep.
I sink like a rock. I tell people the same shit and they don’t believe me.
Me too. I basically walk along the bottom blowing bubbles like a fish tank ornament
He did become a SEAL. It just happened to be a TV one
“i don’t know how to float” fixed it for you
It's called negative buoyancy bud
@@rektop8506 “it’s called i don’t know how to float” fixed it for you bro
@@rumski2926 floating isn't a skill, there's s bone density and fat percentage that keeps people floating, less body fat and people who have genetically denser bones can't float, not everyone is you
@@kermitthefrog2578 another guy who panics and sinks lol take a deep breath and relax and float
@@rumski2926 yea no, I can float don't project on somebody you know nothing about boy, depending on bone density which can be genetic, or percentage of fat to muscle people will be unable to float, doesn't matter how many times you say "just take a deep breath and relax" because they'll be relaxing under water drowning because you can't take a hint because you're an idiot who doesn't understand biology and how different people are from YOU.
Brother same 😂 I doggy paddled the whole time during the treading water test.
Hey hey, somebody else who doesn't float. Good to see its not just me
I don't float, well my head just underwater as long as i don't exhale.
No Bullshit I have the exact same situation!! My family thinks I am just stupid or something but I don’t float.
My dad doesn't float he walks and bounces off the bottom of the pool like a hippo. 😅😂😂😂😂
Same. I float 3 inches underwater. But I never could be a seal either.
Yes. Great reason. I would have chosen something else myself had I served. I'm ok in water but definitely not a fish
