Reminded me of the scene from an old underwater sci-fi flic (? was it 'The Abyss' https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0096754/), where the deep-divers had to learn how to 'breathe' the oxygenated liquid instead of air.
Speaking of liquid, there was also an example of 'fluid animation' (is it the term?), later also seen in Terminator 2 (the unkillable and self-reassembling T-1000) and other movies.
