It's possible for Tails to drown in the Hero Chao garden. If he stands in the deep water for 20 seconds or so, a countdown will begin and he will start to drown. This does not deplete the player's lives, and only works with Tails. This does not work in the GameCube installment as the water is not as deep.

Attachment In preparation for Sonic Adventure, Sonic Team conducted a trip to Central and South America. This was done because none of the developers had ever seen environments like ruins and jungles, and the team wanted to make a realistic world for the game. Some of the pictures they had taken were used as textures for the game. Tails' Sand Hill sub game was even inspired by people boarding on sand dunes in Ica, Peru.
