Fast swimmers

Answered here with the same clip.

But you have to listen to a retard who talks about everything else except how hippos swim so fast. And the guy pronounces the name "Fiona" as "Fioner" because he's a fer'ner. He's being amusing through the whole over-explanation.  The question is, "how do hippos swim fast" and the answer is the history of African hippos and the American space program.

Like all the gardening videos he talks way too much.

So I'll tell you the answer. They're not swimming fast, they're running underwater and their extreme density allows them to haul hippo-butt even on land and even though their shape is not streamlined.

Hippos have a shape like a nuclear sub or a tanker below the surface. They are more streamlined than you think.
