Yes sir, Namur! [ Sorry, man, authority figures are cool. He's also never heard of a straight-up turtle in his life, but he's kind of assuming that means "do the thing where you hold your breath." So Bolin obediently takes a breath and makes proverbial tracks. And, you know, takes active steps to not just test his breath-holding by floating face-down, because that would be really awkward.
Give him about a minute and twenty-two seconds before he's back up for a big undignified fresh breath of air. An athlete he may be, but swimming isn't his sport of choice, so he's just holding about average. Though he does spend most of that time thinking about how great it would be to learn to hold his breath longer. Like, wow, talk about something that could be cool. ]
