I never go to the pool often enough.

Also, I can't ride a bike, because I never owned one.

I can swim, but I have some trouble with keeping water out of my nose when I do so. If something is covering or clamping my nose (and doesn't fall off) I swim fine. Oh and I also can't see underwater without goggles since chlorine water stings my eyes (salt water stings them even more).

I never do either activity much anymore.

I learned how to swim when I was 13 or 14. Before that, I was terrified of water that went over my head.

the act of swimming is really just controlled flailing so I don't really see why it would even take practice.
Can you swim faster than Michael Phelps?
Didn't think so.

I heard somewhere that babies have the natural ability to swim (see Spencer Elden), but they lose it as they grow up. It's kind of weird  O_0

This is all I could find: Teaching babies to swim comes naturally

'Nobody has an inbuilt fear of water.' Really? Hydrophobia Aquaphobia isn't that uncommon, although maybe it's caused by some sort of trauma rather than a hard-wired fear.

Hell yes. I was on a swim team for years, but I quit so I could focus on my bass playing. I haven't swam seriously in years, but back in the day I could breast stroke like a motherfucker.

I can swim.

And I'm black. Take THAT logic. badass
