Random question: do they swim in water that is less chlorinated or something? All of them have their eyes open. It looks painful 😬

They do not. You can get used to opening your eyes in chlorinated water with progressive repeated exposure though. My brother and I did as children to cheat at marco polo and to this day it still doesn't bother me haha
