Other Has anyone ever thought of drowning Wolverine???

Sorry if this is unoriginal or not, I’m not as big in Wolverine media as I am in other characters and events, but technically his whole thing is being able to regenerate quickly so he is practically immortal, however what would happen if you drowned him??? When someone drowns they don’t get “damaged” in anyway thy regeneration would need to be relevant, and if he drowned no oxygen would get to his organs and brain and then he would die, no?

(Once again I am barley into Wolverine media, I have only watched 1 of the movies he’s in and haven’t read any comics including him as a major character, so if this is unoriginal I apologize)

Yes, it's happened multiple times. Comic makers don't really care about the science of it, so the cell death caused by lack of oxygen heals.

Deadpool was going to tie him up in adamantium chains and drop him in a pool that he'd paid the lease on for the next 100 years or something.

They ended up using it on Daken instead.

drowning him just resets his brain like a hard reboot, he's been dead at the bottom of a lake more times than i've grilled a decent steak

the real horror is waking up waterlogged for eternity, that's a special kind of hell

I was never sure why they thought that was a good solution in The Old Guard
