When I swim, if I just get out of the pool and dry off, it only takes me a minute to fully dry off.

If I take a poolside outdoor shower to get the chlorine off and then dry off, it takes considerably longer to dry off.

This confuses me - getting fully emersed in water should get make me more soaked.... but the shower seems to get me more soaked....

I often think about this when taking a shower after swimming... the paradox of water

But even then, it's very likely that your head left the water long before the rest of you.
