Why am I rapidly sinking and sinking till I hit the bottom?
« on: September 06, 2009, 06:46:33 PM »
I'm sinking to the bottom of the pool even when I take the deepest breath I can beforehand. I thought I human body supposedly floats?

laying flat on your back your body will float since you distribute your weight over a larger area.

is it possible to float on the surface? This I must try... Almost like walking on water then, theoretically, at least be on top of it in an automatic fashion.

haha, I don't think I'm right. Buoyancy is a displacement force, not a pressure. So whether you can float or not depends on your density (displaced volume will generate a force the equivalent of water density x volume displaced). I don't think we can float  ;D It is possible to do so on the dead sea due to high salt concentrations..

Just wait at the bottom for a couple seconds, and eventually you'll float back up

This quote is obviously a cry for help. Not bad, but your definitely no Frost.

Robert Frost. Poet. His stuff is pretty basic, easy to interpret. Not really deep but it definitely stands alone.

Frost is a guy who took a less traveled path to buoyancy: let himself remain at the bottom of the pool for several minutes, and then eventually he began to float
