Joe was scared to put his head under the water. It's hard as hell to gain speed - when you try to keep your head above water.
I think I could beat a prime Joe Fraiser in a swimming race. I dunno tho, it would be tough for me tho.
Joe's right arm is longer than his left. He injured his left arm as a kid and never had it fixed properly.
Off course . . . because if you try to put your head above the water while swimmingh free style the whole chest area will bloc the flow of water and will stop you from moving forward. It's preventing you to "slide" in the water. :yep
