Wearing the turtle shell while sprint-swimming directly under certain blocks grants water breathing. Tested blocks include stone, diorite, granite, andesite, dirt, and sand (sand must be floating).
Swimming through a bubble column while wearing the turtle shell does not grant water breathing.

I'm pretty sure it's any block. It's happened to me with the prismarine variants when I was clearing out an ocean monument.
Personally, I hope it doesn't get fixed. It makes the turtle shells a lot less underpowered. You still have to do something extra to get your bubbles back, but it's not as bad as swimming back up to the surface from the bottom of the ocean.

Swimming up against an underwater ceiling or block while wearing turtle shell helmet will reset the player's air bubble meter, allowing unlimited breathing, possibly due to a hitbox error.
