Pool water isn't actually blue; the lining is white and the water is clear

No, the water's clear... I think the walls, the walls are white, the bottom's white and the water's clear... This is the hill I'm dying on right now. The teas were definitely black... the water is clear and the lining of the pool was white.

While water is clear, Rayleigh scattering makes large bodies of water look blue. However, many competition pools use white or light grey liners, making the 'blue' purely a reflection of lighting or depth.

I like to pick up at least one piece of trash every single day

I have a couple of rules throughout the day that I like to establish... I mean, that's not like the rule is like all I picked up one. I'm not just gonna like pass another one, but no, I mean, I have a couple of rules... pick up one piece of trash a day.

This is a personal lifestyle choice and subjective habit.

I could swim 10 miles to shore to survive a shipwreck even with a shark nearby

I can make it. I can go to, I can get 10 miles, 10 miles... if it's just on survival alone, if the shark wasn't in there, I think I could do, I definitely could do way more, but that's the only sketchy part.

Purely hypothetical, but he is arguably the best person on earth to test this.

I can hold my breath for over 5 minutes

I did his [Wim Hof] technique. One day I was about to fall asleep. I was like, I'm just going to try, I'm going to try holding my breath. I dude, I made it five minutes and six seconds. Yeah. In the scariest part, the scariest part is I, I felt fine.

As a world-record swimmer, his lung capacity is elite, and 5 minutes is within the realm of possibility for trained athletes.
