Agreed, I have learned an incredible amount on the topic from them with their stopping and explaining. Because of this, I no longer fear sharks. 🙂

I lived in the Florida Keys. Since we were surrounded by water, most of us (like me) learned to hold our breath for around 7 minutes on average. When I worked as a mate on a charter boat, tourists would often ask me how deep the water was - I'd reply, "if it's over your head, it doesn't matter". One time I was out on a WaveRunner in a hurricane (jumping 30'+ seas) when a huge wave aught me and pushed me around 50' or more under. The waves kept holding me down far underwater, and eventually I couldn't hold my breath anymore. I took a breath and things went black. But I can say drowning in salt water isn't a bad way to go - there's a moment of horror before your body forces you to breathe, but I just remember things being so calm and peaceful after that. When I came to the surface, my friend did the CPR and got me back...

Fun as always! Just to clarify for non-divers, the 'tissue compartments' the guys are talking about that absorb nitrogen are not like the cuts of beef on poster in the butchers' shop. Neither are they spaces in the body like the lungs, gut or ears. They are actually just a term for theoretical types of tissue, like muscle, joints, bones or fat deposits that will absorb and release gas at different rates depending on what they are made of and how well they are supplied with blood. The nitrogen goes into the tissues in solution in body fluids. When you come up and the pressure decreases, we want to allow it to come out again still fully in solution, stay in solution in the blood and then evaporate out when the blood goes through the lungs. If the pressure drops too fast, it comes out of solution forming bubbles and these can both damage your tissues and form blood clots. The term 'the bends' comes from early divers who could suffer pain in the joints from nitrogen bubble damage, making them want to roll up into a ball. Not nice! I resent the statement that a heart rate of 45 means you are in a coma. My watch says mine is currently 39 and I'm sitting here typing, or is this a dream? Nurse! Nurse!! Why is no one answering? Never been saturation diving, my dive watch doesn't have a helium escape valve, so just a keyboard warrior on this, but why would your lungs be squeezed to the size of a peanut? At 534 metres, 54Bar of pressure, you are still breathing gas at 54Bar so your lungs should be quite normal, just as they are at 40m and 5Bar when recreational scuba diving. Also 1% O2 then becomes a partial pressure of about 0.5Bar, so about double what you would be getting at the surface from each breath. BTW, my deepest dive is only 38 metres, and it felt just like 10 metres, only darker. And I wasn't narked, or at least I don't think so.........

@arimunic

Жыл бұрын

Super old comment but no one responded so I figured I would. They actually made a bit of an error there. You're correct that the pressure would be balanced and wouldn't squeeze your lungs. The real reason is that the gas itself just becomes too dense. The strength of your diaphragm and ribcage is only so much. The resistance to flowing the gas in and out simply increases as it gets denser which is another benefit of helium (or hydrogen in this case) as its less dense. This is also one of the biggest impediments to liquid breathing they mentioned at the end. Your body just isn't capable of exchanging the fluid in sufficient volumes. But for smaller animals like mice, this is less of an issue. As such, that scene in the Abyss where they demonstrate liquid breathing using a mouse basically drowning in oxygenated fluid, was actually real.

I feel like there is a step missing for the Nitrogen absorption. The reason you get more nitrogen into your body to begin with is because more nitrogen can disolve into your blood under higher pressure. Like being able to disolve more sugar into the same amount of water. The nitrogen goes into your tissues from the blood as it circulates and exchanges gas. When you then ascend too fast the blood and tissues can no longer hold as much dissolved nitrogen and it starts to escape right where its held in the tissues and blood. If you get too much nitrogen here in this stage it will form bubbles which can be very harmful as they repeatedly mention.

As a non diver, I love all the pausing! If you didn’t pause as much, I’d have to pause myself & go Google stuff😂

You should watch "last breath". It is a film, based on a true story. A North Sea saturation diver has his umbilical severed, and spends a long time at 100m in 2 Celsius water with no breathing gas or heating.

Hydrogen, Hydrogen. I thought about it on the mix, totally forgot it loves to mix with oxygen to make water. Them read the Wikipedia and was like "of course" Maybe using two separate tanks... Hum... Still dangerous.

Hi Guys, at 37:09 you managed to "explain" my favorite pet peeve when saying that at that depth "their lungs are almost squeezed down to a peanut". That is just one of those cases where people misapply the physics and I hear it so often. The lungs compress only like this if you are freediving. When breathing compressed gas, your lungs are their normal size. Think of it in terms of a balloon. When you inhale, you add air to the balloon to its proper size. More importantly, if the compression while scuba analogy were right, then we wouldn't have lung over-expansion problems. At 10m our lungs would be compressed to half volume, we breath gas at double the pressure, so upon surfacing, our lungs return to normal volume (increasing by a factor of 2) while the gas expands by a factor of 2. The problem on ascending while holding your breath is precisely because our lungs do not change volume while changing depth and breathing compressed gas. So if we hold our breath with a full lung and surface from 10m, the gas cannot expand because the lungs don't expand, so we would have to hold 2 bar pressure in our lungs at the surface. But our physiology cannot do that, so the gas forces the lungs to expand and take damage. TLDR: if you are breathing compressed gas and change depth, your lungs remain at the same volume. Lung compression is only a thing if you hold your breath.

@tobiashartung856

@@RugnirSvenstarr Yes. That is precisely the purpose of the regulator you breath from. It regulates the high pressure in the tank down to ambient pressure that you are at. It does this in two steps which is why you have that big metal blob right on the cylinder. This gives you an "intermediate" pressure that is still too high to breath but allows you to operate the second stage consistently as this intermediate pressure is fairly constant throughout the dive. The part that goes into your mouth then regulates the intermediate pressure down to the ambient pressure. Effectively that is a valve which opens whenever the pressure in your mouthpiece is less than the outside pressure. This releases gas into the mouthpiece and thus aligns the pressure of gas you breath with the pressure surrounding you.

I love these videos from you guys. Thinking about how you mentioned the need to breathe isn't from oxygen, but a build up of Co2 - I used to play Oboe in highschool, and there's a technique called 'playing on empty' that most/all oboists use. Because you're trying to force air through such a small opening, Co2 builds up fast. So at times, while still on a breath of air, you need to exhale even more away from your reed so you can continue to play. I remember a few people who were learning who would complain about being 'floaty'... because of that Co2 build up. Anyway! Thought you might find that interesting :D

@@sullivan3503 I don't believe that was the cause. This was how it was explained to me by my oboe teacher who was a PHD. players were used to having a lot of air to push through their respective instruments and the oboe is a wildly different beast. The opening between the two reeds is tiny, and it can cause a build up of co/2. You'd still try to take in air, but your ventilation through the instrument changed, letting less out. So yeah, you'd have to take a larger exhale, pushing out the extra co/2, away from the instrument and could still play for a time after that. If you didn't you'd get this floaty feeling and or a headache.

Talk more about freediving and all that’s involved with it. When Gus was like ok I’ll stop with the technicalities of it I was like no go on! Great insight as always

Would love to see you guys react to scenes from The Abyss. That's such a great movie for people interested in deep sea diving and saturation diving. Apparently the scene where they submerged the rat in the "oxygenated liquid" was real; the rat was actually breathing liquid oxygen. In the scene where they fill Ed Harris' dive suit with the liquid, it was just colored water, and he held his breath. There is a great documentary on the filming of The Abyss. They filmed it in empty nuclear reactor containment tanks that they filled with water. I believe all the actors were dive certified by the end of filming.

This was fascinating. Thank you. In my younger days I was a lifeguard. As part of our certification, we had to simulate a 12 foot deep recovery of an unconscious person who sustained a neck injury. It was a pass fail portion of the test. We had to pass a two minute breath hold with proper exhale procedures before being allowed to attempt the test. We had to swim down to depth, secure the person in the proper neck hold for head injuries, and return to the surface without breaking hold until relief guards at the surface back boarded the individual for emergency transport. While lifeguarding, I developed a horrible sinus infection from severe allergies. My sinuses never recovered. I have never been able to go deeper than about 6-8 feet without severe sinus pressure and discomfort. The pressure at just this depth causes headaches. I may never be able to dive, but I do admire and appreciate those who do. It offers souls like me a chance to see places otherwise out of reach. 🥰

Are you too terrified to learn how to swim? Anybody can be taught to swim and should honestly learn if on just the basics. It's probably about the closest thing to flying without actually fly. This is a fear that can be overcome. If your still in fairly good shape and have the health to be taught to swim you should really look into conquering this fear. But again I'm telling you this when I really dont have any fears of anything. Maybe the closest I could come to understanding your fear would be dead people. But even then idk that I'm terrified of a body. Idk that I could actually touch a body like a mortician or what have you. But if I had somebody else with me I think maybe I could do it. In life you should not let any kind of fear dictate any aspect of your life. I was a bull rider when I was still young enough to do it and to be honest some of the bulls scared the hell out of me. But I refused to let that fear rob me of the chance to do what I was passionate about doing at that time. That fear of bull riding eventually turned into a love for bull riding and chasing that adrenaline high and the notoriety from the people that watched me do it. It was something that made me stick my head up a little higher and my chest out a little further. I loved being able to tell people that yea I am a cowboy and a bull rider. Over come your fear of water and get in there and own that shit even if it scared the shit outta you. Eventually you will learn to love to swim. I'm talking about actually swimming and not hoping in a 4 foot pool and calling that swimming. I'm talking about water that you cant touch the bottom in. Water that used to scare the hell outta you. Even if it's the deep end at the YMCA. It will make you feel amazing when you conquer any kind of fear that you had. Hopefully this book I just wrote inspires you to get out there and kick the hell out of your fear for water.b

Man, y’all have become one of my favorite channels! I love listening to the two of you react and go in depth (🤣🤦🏽‍♀️) on these videos. Keep up the good work!

Don't ever stop stopping and commenting, that is why I keep coming back. I love the explanations and the science

The problem is that hydrogen and oxygen are explosive when mixed even without a spark. Which wild when you consider that water is just hydrogen and oxygen in a molecule, but spearated to their gas forms and then mixed, whoa, you literally have rocket fuel.

Then you have the fact that hydrogen embrittles metals it comes into contact with, things can get a little dicey with hydrogen in the mix but I suppose we should just be thankful that we dont have to worry about high temperature hydrogen attack in this environment.

Crazy how zeppelins used so much of it eh? Granted, they were forced to cuz the US wouldnt export helium which the original plans called for using in dual gas cells with an inner hydrogen cell surrounded by an outer helium cell for safety but noone batted an eye at switching to hydrogen just because they hadn't had any trouble with it YET.

@PenileAugmentation I am not an expert either but oxygen and hydrogen, when mixed, can explode. They dont really just combine into water. Oxygen is O2 which is two oxygen atoms. Hydrogen is H2, which is 2 hydrogen atoms. Water is H2O, and H2O2 is hydrogen peroxide . I could be a bit off here because it really has been a while since I took chemistry, or any science classes for that matter lol, but I believe the issue is that when you have H2 and O2 you need to separate the two oxygen and combine only one with the hydrogen in order to form water and there is a need to add energy to make any of them combine. I can not remember the actual process but if I am remebering correctly when the energy is added to break the hydrogen and get them to combine, the reaction is violently exothermic and is the explosion I was mentioning. The result produces water but not without an explosion that you really really dont want right next to you, especially under water. Like I said this could be a bit off and I know I am leaving some details out because I am going from memory but at any rate it is not something you want. Lol

Can't help but ask, when someone has to spend hours on decompression, what about when nature calls? Specifically #2. Or do diver fast for a day so they are "cleared out"?

I read that you drink enough water before scuba diving that you’re basically peeing clear. So yeah you do pee while diving. Don’t quote me though, just what I read online. #2 though I’d think it’s probably best to do that beforehand, but I’m sure there are some stories out there where this didn’t happen haha. And for someone that has multiple bowel movements a day, I’d think they’d want to get their GI tract problems under control before diving xD a handful of saccharomyces boulardii a day will keep it at bay xD

I like to hear stories where someone was diving and the good ol sneaky number 2 creeped up on a guy there was no way he was gonna be able to hold it. Yall know the #2im talking about. The one that hits you and it's either you find a toilet or your wet suit is gonna be pretty nasty once you do get to the surface. They should build in one of those little trap doors in the wet suits like they had in the old timers pajama outfits. Two buttons and your rear is free and you can let her rip.

Glad you guys take the time to explain your videos. Not only am I learning but feel I'm right there in the action.

I know it’s a 2 yr old video by now and I’ve just found it but I’ve already dived 😜 into your videos and I don’t care how much you pause it, I really appreciate the knowledge you guys share and the time you take to make your videos and let us be apart of them. Thanks from someone who is terrified of water but dreams to dive or even snorkel comfortably.

This is one of my favorite videos from you guys so far! I’ve binged 30+ of your videos.

Deepest I been was over 5000ft but I was flying a wasp. I was one of the sat divers who worked at the BP oil spill.after deep water horizon had it's blowout. Not sure if that counts because I was in a huge dive suit called a wasp but that was by far the deepest I have ever been.

That happens if you don't equalize the pressure in your sinuses by holding your nose and breath and pushing outwards, like you do when taking off on a plane. Also if you have a cold or allergies sometimes you can't equalize pressure even when you try so you can't dive.

Your explanations are always so good to the point of it being entertaining. Never was interested in diving, but always enjoy your vids.

Thanks for all of the pausing! These gas mixes have always sounded so intimidating to me, but now I understand them! I really enjoyed this!

How about Bond villains ? Are they dangerous to divers.? Lol

for a non diver, this is by far the most educational video. Thanks guys. Look forward to your videos all the time, watching in full! :)

Hey Woody, you hit pause all you need to don't worry about them.

Why is the air you are breathing compressed? I would have thought the air coming out of a tank is always 1 atmosphere. Why does it change? The tank doesnt know how deep you are. its encased in solid metal.

I'm obsessed. Your videos are not only dive inspiring. Also, the respect and compadre-ship (is that a word?) you two have is a refreshing way to watch on this platform. 🎉

I'm not a diver but have learnt SO much from the many vids of yours I've watched recently.... Love the repartee between you guys.

You can only go so deep without being enclosed in a full body pressure suit without your skull caving in. That depth is around 900-1000ft depending on your particular physiology some peoples skulls are the right shape and strength to do it, others are not.. at least this is what I have been informed by many reliable sources and at the beginning of the video, let’s see how this goes lmao.

@clapanse

Absolutely false. Saturation divers have gone twice that depth with no risk at all to their skull, since there's no air pocket in your skull (and thus the pressure balances just fine). Yes, saturation divers wear helmets, but those aren't helmets to hold out the pressure, and they maintain at full depth pressure equivalent for weeks at a time while working.

Woody is such an AMAZING teacher! I’ve learned more about diving from this channel than most people know. It’s always fun to share my knowledge I’ve picked up!

Keep up the great content , y’all are the reason for the content ! pause 100,000 times , real supporters are here for you guys ! Y’all are the show !

Wow the pressure thing was gold. Never thought about it

i LOVE you guys. randomly came across the channel and i am now hooked to diving even tho i never even though of doing it before :)

I love how often you stop to explain because you're so clear and funny to listen to :D I would never watch seek out those videos on my own.

Bravo, another amazing video. Watching your videos feels like I'm taking an educational dive class. I've never aspired to become a diver, nor do I'll ever. But the information and concepts in and of themselves are fascinating. Keep up the amazing videos guys.

I am quite hooked up on recreational diving (learning CMAS) - currently I am learning advanced theory - Your meticulous approach to safety, common and emergency procedures are inspiring. I am interrested in the science behind diving (saturation, deco, soft tissue reactions, emergency procedures...) and you seem to know it all :) Too many people are ommiting theory and safety basics under water and in my opinion they are simply lucky to be alive. Diving is beautiful and following your guidelines, it can be safe and enjoyable. You also make it understandable for non divers in absolutely perfect way - your approach shows that it does not take MIT grade to be able to perform open water recreational dive. One can deep dive in the theory, if he wants to, but if he wants just to get wet in 90 feet, there is not too much to it - learn theory, get training, stay calm, gear up and have reliable more experienced buddy (prefferably two - Woody and Gus). I learned (and am still learning) a lot from you, thank you.

Hi Gus and Woody! Love your videos. I just had one fun addition to your discussion on water pressure and "feeling crushed". At extreme depths, such as at Challenger Deep, the pressure is so immense that not only gas cavities compress, but also fluids do (water volume will compress by about 5% at these depths), and the cellular biology of the organisms that live down there is affected as well. I don't know if saturation diving will ever go to such extremes, but it could be a difficult biological limitation to overcome.

Fantastic, the science is my favorite part and you guys putting it context is always the best part of the channel

Great video, I'm not a diver but I find I'm so interested in how professional divers dive, what gases are used and why the gases are a mixture for certain depths, the more I watch your videos the more I learn about diving, keep on making these videos as there very informative.

Just a suggestion but have you guys thought about just playing the video all the way through and taking notes while video plays then after the video breaking it all down for us. Maybe you guys could watch the videos first and take all your notes so you'll be ready to break it down down for us. I love you guys and watch all your videos. I'm happy your channel is building pretty fast like it has been. Wish yall all the best.

Ohhh I'm super early. I'm literally watching this sitting in line to cross the Border, from Matamoros, Mexico to Brownsville, Texas! I'm a new sub and dig the content and learning about diving and the Do's and Don'ts. Keep up the good work Gents.

Keep pausing! Your commentary is really helpful. I don't dive myself so i love to listen to you guys explaining

I have zero desire to dive. But I stumbled across this channel and I love learning about it. Thank you

I love it when woody pauses it, because usually he provides a lot of key information that non divers should have context about, to know what is going on. Also, if ya'll are taking any suggestions, a thin white line or something between the 2 camera views when both of yall's cameras fill the screen would be nice, it would probably help blend the 2 camera views together a bit better, and hide the seam. Anyways keep up the work!
