      You can cry anywhere -even in space. The difference is that if you’re underwater, the water will wash it away.

      @Hannah yes I think so but the tears would mix with the water so nobody would notice. The bigger problem is that people often sob when they are crying and gulp for breath – if you were underwater you would inhale water and possibly drown. So don’t get upset underwater.
