Wader question/ do they make you sink ?

If your waders fill up will you sink like a rock ? I kinda remember on TV an ad with a guy jummping off a dock with waders on and swimming around!
Was it just a hopefull dream? Or if you fall out of a boat with waders on you will sink to the bottom? Myth or ??
Vb

Myth. It doesn't make you sink, and it won't make you "turn turtle" and float feet up.

If its a myth then why is everyone paranoid about wearing a wading belt?

The belt does help to keep cold water from getting down in your junk. Plus, they look cool. Yeah, right.

The worst day fishing is better than the best day working. ...Wait a minute, my work IS fishing. Sweet.
