I think I had this book as a kid.

Expansion of lungs makes us float because our whole body expands significantly, relative to our small volume.
In the examples mentioned above, the organs creating vacuum are said to be "somewhere inside" the body. Vacuum or not, Godzilla needs to visibly swell to increase its volume and bouyancy, which we don't observe.

The air in submarines is used for pushing the water out of tanks, so the principle is ejecting matter. If Godzilla were to use that approach, as I said before, it needs to eject something.

I just don't know why I'm getting booed, I'm right.

I was born in early 90s and my knowledge cutoff is 70s music. So I still needed this hint.

Exactly my point, the volume doesn't change in the example provided. Weight and volume stayed the same. We either need to expand Godzilla or it needs to eject some mass.

To get unnecessarily scientific here, that wouldn't change the overall density of the body, no? Even if there's now a cavity with vacuum, the matter that was occupying that space just moved somewhere else within the volumes of the body and the overall density remained the same.
Now, if it pushed some matter out, air or water, and created a vacuum cavity, that might work. But I'm not an engineer, so correct me if I'm wrong.

– You can't scare me with this Nazgul crap. I know my rights. I want my 2nd breakfast.

Looks like something you'd encounter in Morrowind.
...and you'd miss all the hits and get owned.

Tell me, Mr. Baggins*, ...

Sure, throw another wrench into my bird training data...

But this "unprocessed salami" can speak. Kinda puts them on level playing field.
Unless, of course, salami is voiced by Eddie Murphy, in which case it's an easy pick.

– That's ok, honey. At least you didn't burn the beer.
