An issue with his air supply, maybe? I’m just guessing. Condensation?

Welcome to S_ace. Notice there’s no P in it. Please help us to keep it that way.

I recall seeing a story of an astronaut with a similar problem.
His helmet filled up so much that by the time he got back inside, he had to keep his head up to keep his mouth above the water level.
What a thing it would have been, to drown in space doing a spacewalk!

Water in your suit could be a serious problem with no gravity. You could aspirate it and choke, or be electrocuted if it gets into electronic devices, like cameras?
