Who else jumps to avoid dismounting in water

When mounted and running through a river, does anybody else jump through it in a futile attempt to avoid being dismounted? Am I the only one?

I swear it works.

I do this all the time even when I know I'm at a body of water that won't dismount me.

Q u o t e:
yes i do this since if the water is 2 foot deep i have to swim

This could be the reason I suppose. My first leveling experience was a Gnomish specimen.

Why do we even have to dismount in water? i know a lot of the mounts can swim, like horses, elekk, wolfs etc,

But of course they won't be able to go their speed of 60% or 100% but could go as normal walking speed and swim!

In my extensive real-life experience riding wolves, I've always found that they disappear when attempting to carry me through bodies of water. :D
