- Swimming is a skill used to swim on water tiles. It can be a dangerous practice to people with a really low skill, as it is fairly easy to just stop moving as the character is drowning. After three or four times the player cannot move, it usually dies. For this reason it's advisable to swim on the coast to train the skill, and start using it as a boat alternative to do some Passive Fishing, or just take some Njerpez by surprise, after the player has reached 50-60 % proficiency with it.
- Swimming is a which allows a Player to move in any direction (horizontally or vertically) while underwater in a Minecraft world. A player may also swim across the Water's surface.

- Another benefit of swimming is that it removes all negative Special Conditions.

- Time Taken: One round to several minutes or hours. This skill represents the character's ability to stay afloat in aquatic environments — lakes, oceans, flooding rivers and luxury starliner swimming pools. Swimming difficulties are determined by the water conditions: the starliner pool is Very Easy, while a roaring river might be Very Difficult. When a character fails a swimming check, he begins to drown.

- Swimming is usually considered as a death trap in any map featuring water. It is generally considered as an idiotic move as no damage can be dealt while swimming.

- Swimming is the form of moving in water. Swimming improves one's Athletics more than Running does in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. While swimming, one's Fatigue does not regenerate as fast if one was walking or swimming slowly. Although, at higher levels, it does not matter. There is a thin layer between the surface and where one's vision goes slightly foggy in water; this layer shows everywhere underwater clear as if one was on land. One can dive underwater by looking down and pressing or pushing the forward key or stick.

- Similar to the mechanic of walking, Jimmy can vary his swimming speed - notably done by changing from a breast-stroke done at a walking pace to the freestyle done at sprinting pace. In the game, Jimmy is required to swim for four different errands - beating Justin Vandervelde's swimming record, collecting crabs for Mr. Martin, exploring the "last island", and exploring the ship wreck for Pedro De La Hoya. To obtain the bonus Pirate hat, Jimmy will have to swim to an island in the ocean inlet and knock out Vance Medici, who will be in his Halloween costume.
- Swimming is the various kicking and twitching motions that Humans and Animals use to move through the water using only body power. In order to swim you must cover yourself in a gooey buoyant substance called shmectagel. Failure to cover oneself in shmectagel before entering any body of water results in instant (and irreversable) spontaneous human combustion. Note that some men wear thongs, in order to decrease wind resistance, and have the penis act as a paddle.
- Although swimming was essential for survival for many species, over the centuries swimming became a favorite past time for humanoids.

- Swimming is and always has been an excuse for guys to wear tight cloth like garments around their genital areas and for girls to show off the slight bumps on their chest that they have developed over winter. Of course, some people wear loose swimmers known to many as "board shorts." This is just because their penises are not big enough to fill regular tight swimmers. Swimming is the opposite of walking. Generally it is done in water. It is a useless pastime, as generally swimmers swim up and down a hole filled with water, when walking along the side is three times as fast?

(ENT: "Vox Sola", "The Catwalk") While he, Leonard McCoy and Nyota Uhura were considering the various programs available in the rec room, Hikaru Sulu suggested a swim at the beach.

(Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home)
