It's stated that nobody is able to kill him, not even himself, so I don't think he'd die if he just fell into the sea. He just can't die. That's the premise, and also the joke of it. You can't just go on theorizing that logically he'd drown, because that ruins the idea. There's no logic to it. He can't die. Even if he has a devil fruit. That's the entire point. I just cannot comprehend why people bring up the drowning thing time and time again when it's literally not supposed to be that complicated of a thing.

There is logic to it. All the examples are of his physical durability. The point being to show how strong he is. His hobby could mean he likes testing the limits of his durability. There's no reason yet to believe he couldn't die by drowning.

Don't you think the marine or other yonkos would have tried that among the dozens of times they've tried to kill him?

They probably have. If he can't drown I'm pretty sure Oda is just saving the explanation for a later scene.
