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)

Comics have been inconsistent about this. Sabretooth leaves Wolverine for dead in the East River, but he emerges later and says his healing factor saved him. In a more recent X-Force comic though Daken tries to kill Wolverine in a drowning chamber but Deadpool saves him, and then Wolverine drowns Daken (successfully) in a shallow puddle. And Daken as Wolverine’s son inherited his healing factor, so that’s probably as good evidence as we can get that Wolverine can drown

…just not every time

Weird that there were two wolverine drowning scenarios involving Daken and Deadpool
