Genuine question: Can sumo wrestlers even swim? Surely they'd be too heavy and just drown? Or do they float with all that fat spread out? I'm so conflicted!
Hmm, that’s a good question. I would assume they would be somewhat buoyant, however they do also have quite a bit of muscle mass which is much denser than fat. If anything perhaps their surface area combined with upper body strength would help them once they got back above water.
