I didn't think I could float either. :D Since I'm like a skeleton, and more fat is buoyant apparently. >.> Everyone always told me floating is easy and just to relax, but I always sank, or my head was the only thing barely above the water. ^~^; I tried floating on my back, breathing in and out, but every time,
my legs went down,
my torso went down,
B/ I went down.
So I just held my breath, and boom! :D Floated! Then I explained that I just let my BODY relax and held my breath to float. :[ But then I was told that was wrong. That I'm supposed to breathe in and out like I did before.
>B/ It was frustrating that everyone else knew how to float, and I just couldn't for the life of me.

But it turns out I was floating correctly the whole time! :D
The body just floats!...as long as you hold your breath repeatedly. <xD Because the lungs help ya float if they're fully inflated. :3
Only thing though, legs will sink. <:/ Legs don't have lungs...not even mine. The only way to keep legs afloat is to kick a lil' slowly.
Conclusion: You can float. :D Everyone else is just saying it's easy when it's not, it's actually natural, and you gotta find what's natural to ya!

...also you can float if you aren't conscious or even alive, <X} but, like, that's for a totally different reason. O_O People sink later on, after floating. <.<; But it's just natural. We're all flippin' buoys.
.w. If you're a baby though, you need floaties.
