Are you sure you have a male?
Usually trying to escape is a sign of a gravid female.
If you're certain you've got a boy, then I'd recheck the tank to make sure he can't escape. Turtles are excellent climbers and you don't want to risk him falling out of the tank.

Well,my turtles sometime like swim really fast against the glass,and try to get out,and it can be funny!!But they don't do it all the time.They mostly just do it when they get scared.
