    Alright....then how do you explain their ablity to throw a ball so hard underwater? Don't tell me they uber train, cause no one could ever throw a ball that hard in the water no matter how hard they try.

    Thanks for the sig Blitz Ace!

    *ahem* Final Fantasy, people. Nobody ever complains that "people can't use magic!" when Lulu casts a spell.

    There's some special name for the water in Spira. I forget what it is, but basically, it's not normal water.

    My dad said that there is some type of breathable gas, that's like water... But then he could have just made it up.

    hey don't breathe underwater, they hold their breath. There are references to this in many places. How they hold their breath for 5 minutes while playing an active sport is another matter. But I like the 'Its' Final Fantasy People' answer. Imma go with that.

    That's right, they don't breath underwater:
    Tidus gasps when surfacing.
    Yuna is seen training to hold her breath in the Eternal Calm video.
    Other stuff already mentioned.

    In the Navy, they train to hold their breath for like 3 minutes.

    In real life, the human brain begins to sustain permanent damage and deteriorate rapidly after being deprived of oxygen for more than five minutes.

    I think it was Old Manus who reminded me of this absaloutely brilliant quote in the FFVII forums. "um...A wizard did it" That has to be the best quote ever.

    Well I think the title was just misleading. People probably thought, "oh this
    is another guy complaining about an unrealistic aspect in a fantasy game.
    better flame him." At least that's what I thought. But then I actually read
    the damn post.

    Until discovering ingame that the players held their breath, I thought they played in an arena full of a kind of liquid oxygen. It actually exists, allows people to breathe fluid. It is used to help drowning victims as it will displace the water in their lungs.

    I thought they had some kinda thing that helped them breathe. When you're on the Al Bhed ship in the beginning of the game, Brother thrusts this red thing at Tidus, and Tidus tries to knock it away. I thought it was some sort of breathing mechanism. But I dunno.

    Signature by rubah. I think.
