The new Godzilla Minus 1 movie actually goes over this, >!they even use it against Godzilla to try and defeat him.!<
clearly he swims when he’s not in the shallows
Yes.
Everyone always thinks the ocean is super deep from the beach outward. This is not the case. Just because a boat will float seemingly close to shore doesnt mean the hull is way down in the water
An aircraft carrier only has a draft of some 12 meters. Godzilla is over 100m. Much of the North Sea is only like 40m deep, with shallows much less than that.
That’s how I usually interpret it except in Godzilla Minus One :
Tap for spoiler
A whole plot point is that he is in 1500m of water
OMG is this what whales do too? What about other fishes?? What have they been lying to us??
And boats and icebergs. Even me. I can’t swim, I just extend my legs. and fake it.
I always assumed he was in a Harbour or near shore.
Seamounts are a thing too.
I don’t know what those are so I never assumed that.
I don’t know either but I think they’re probably islands but just don’t reach the surface
That is basically what a seamount is, yes.
Godzilla is Kaiju Jesus
He’s obviously built himself thousands of little elevators over millenia. What did you guys think he was doing down there? Sleeping?
In his house at R’lyeh
Finally a pertinent question. Thanks
Case closed
Good work Ducktective, what would we do without you…
Everyone is in here talking about Godzilla legs.
No one is talking about the Godzilla pizza slice.
or maybe its godzillas stacked all the way down.
He came from the deep ocean, and nobody thinks he’s just the absolute master at treading water?? SMDH
I mean he clearly just walks out of the water in the movies, he’s not suddenly coming up, like you clearly see him slowly get higher and higher out of the water as he gets closer to shore. Also the ocean isn’t that deep close to shore.
It’s way cuter if he’s kicking his stubby ol legs
Godzilla is a duck confirmed
Quackzilla
I like to think he’s treading water, Godzilla is an expert in synchronized swimming.
Squid locomotion.
Yeah all the above is head canon for me now.
He got on water wings(4 Pontoon boats)… or he’s got a lot of gas from eating those spicy Asian femboys and is naturally buoyant
