I was in the pool today for 6 hours!
Then I got out - and I feel like a raisin c;

Now I wonder - why do humans wrinkle up when we're in water for a while? :/
Anybody know?

The water absorbs into there body and when it fills up to much it wont hold anymore so they get all wrinkley!

*jealous* Haven't gone swimming in ages. ;A;

According to my anatomy teacher, there are areas underneath our skin with thinner & thicker layers of something and when your skin absorbs some water, the ridges are more visible. Something like that. o3o
