My Rebreather FLOODED!
Ойындар
We broke one of the most important rules of diving a rebreather, we flooded the unit AND THEN tried to breathe from it again. What can possibly go wrong?
WARNING: DO NOT TRY THIS WITH YOUR OWN REBREATHER.

Wow, that's true! Gus is super different!
Gus: Don't post that we're idiots... Woody: Well...
I can't stress enough how much i love this channel. The experiment is mind blowing, seeing the scrubber completely dry is wild ! Why though is this not in every rebreathers ?
I can hear Edd yelling “shut the DSV before you do anything”. 😂
Gus just single-handedly got KISS to reissue the original Lunar. Now in orange! You guys are awesome. Woody is so sure you're not going to make it he had the rescue plan all drawn up in his head. lol Another excellent video guys.
Just love the two of you. Your friendship makes this channel. Nondiver here but getting warm to the idea.

Gus Cis-Lunar rebreathers were designed by Dr. Bill Stone, and used in the 1988 Wakulla Project The patents/etc were later sold to Poseidon and Dr. Stone worked for Poseidon for a while on their rebreather line John

This is the most HGTV style episode of divetalk i've seen...love it 😂

I'm a non diver and been watching this channel for just over a year. I have to say this was super cool to see. I didn't even know this was a thing haha Thanks for the good content!
Considering how well this worked, and how old the tech is, I’m really baffled this feature isn’t standard on rebreathers. Legitimately it sounds too good to be true; I’d love to see some follow up on the reasons why this isn’t used in modern rebreather units.

It could be a few things, either the material or procedure to make it is too expensive, the material to make it is too scarce, too few situations where it would actually be beneficial for the diver, or too redundant since they have a bailout tank to use which would drop the number of times it could be useful even more or some combination of those to justify its production. There just isn't a big enough need for it, at least for now, to be produced.

Everyone knows rebreathers are pure markup. They cost far less than the 10k people pay to make them. They know their market and would rather get more money than sell a superior product. Capitalism pure and simple.

I'd like to know as well and if anyone could answer, it would be Mike. I'm guessing it's more the risk rather than materials. Breathable materials exist and have advanced since that was made, eg at a very simplistic level, Goretex. But I'm thinking there's a risk that if you could safely flood a rebreather, people may think it's ok to dive without a bailout tank. Especially given cave diving can be getting you + gear through tight restrictions. So leave bailout behind, explore further. It'll be fine, right? Or another recovery job for Edd. I'm also thinking it might be a maintenance issue, so care for your membrane or being able to tell if it's degrading because that's also a SoL issue. So much like with rebreathers in general. I can't (or shouldn't) be able to wander into a dive shop or buy one on ebay because there are many ways to die. I did rebreather certification 20yrs ago and remember a big part of that was about understanding and caring for your rebreather.
The cut to the clip from Rocky 4 was perfect.

Awesome video! Side note - Gus, I definitely don't want to come off the wrong way and offend, but you're looking SO GOOD! As a mama losing her last baby's post partum weight I know how hard you must be working to see this kind of progress!! Way to go Gus!
I like how you all could've done this the first time in a safer environment like a pool or something and just did some small tests, but ya'll just went ahead and dove fully with it. Absolute madlads and I love it!
Gus have mercy! You are lookin so good! Woody glad you're all better. Love you both.
Que? I thought that wasn't possible as a rebreather tech diver but Gustavo you always amaze me
Bro im an auto mechanic and this looks like another genius invention that got scrapped because it was too good. I keep finding tech like this and its annoying. Idk if that actually happened with this one but i wouldnt be suprised 🤷🏾♂️ Too many greedy companies want products completely replaced and nonserviceable. Im really curious about the patent on that filter. Anyway love the content as always and glad ur safe 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
They should make more of these, its literally bullet proof 😮
I love this. Woody: "It's poison." Gus: "It's fine."
8:39 oh thumbs up? Looks like Gus owes everyone tacos
Gus brother you look freaking amazing keep up the good work!!!!!
Gus: "I'm holding the camera up with my arm during a video intro, but hear aquatic activities behind me and need to look and ensure the people are safe."
I just want to say you look great Gus. Keep up the good work
That weight off has taken ten years with it. Edit... seriously that guy is looking fiiiiiiine.
"Hi I'm Woody" is such a pepper upper!! Thank you guys for what you dont. I dont dive but i bet yall have already saved more lives than you know. More lives than the divers themselves know. Awareness is a beautiful thing and you two are beautiful peoples. Love from Kentucky yall
17:30 If Dive Talk doesn't upload anything for the next few days, I'd assume US Navy has something to do with it.
It's so crazy to me how much I love this channel, having never dove and might not ever. I'd like to but living in Oklahoma it's not the easiest or cheapest hobby to have.
I imagine there's a practical maximum operating limit (pressure) for the Semi-Permeable membrane that this uses to keep the water out of the sorb, as there would be a pressure differential across it given that air is a compressible substance while water is not. At some depth the water would inevitably breakthrough and flood the sorb leading to the caustic cocktail they mentioned.
@baginthewind4501
16 күн бұрын
Going deeper wouldn't change the pressure differential across the membrane. The absolute pressure would be higher on both sides of the membrane, but the differential pressure is caused by breathing only.

@@baginthewind4501 You make a good point. I suppose it depends on where that diluent is added to the loop (upstream or downstream of the membrane) when the diver changes depth which is a real possibility given the task loaded situation.

Pressure should play no role in how it effects the inside of the canister, especially if navy divers used this unit.

Keep doing what you're doing. I was diagnosed with asthma almost a year ago, so my dream to scuba dive can never come true anymore. But you still can, so do what you love to your heart's content.
Thank you 🙏 Dive Talk for the great information brothers!!
Looking super healthy Gus. Congrats!
I, like everybody else, can’t imagine why this wouldn’t be widespread. On the note that it might be military use only, it would be a cool video to review what SEALs use, maybe with Mr. ballen sharing what he’s allowed to from his time doing it. A video of you guys diving together would also be awesome.
That may be your last breath! -Woody
I believe CIS lunar was the rebreathers that Bill Stone Developed to push the sumps at Cheve and huatlah. Awesome to see one in action! Would love to pick Mike's brain, about the development of the KISS version
Oh the screaming goat was great! So glad you didn't die, Gus.
Way to go Gus! Great transformation
Lmao the woody subtitles 😂
Gus looking great man I know you have to be feeling amazing 👍👍
Awesome video you guys! I've only seen this done once before with the Megaldon both ccrs are absolute tanks!
Always love your enthusiasm. I didn’t know you were on a fitness quest but I had been noticing you looked thinner. I guess I should have thought there was a reason for the fasting. Congratulations, you look great!!👍
You guys with the sorbs are simply adorbs!
I was always paranoid about diving. Then I have found this channel and videos like this: It shows that even when things go horribly wrong, there are plenty of failsafes. Even in this vid, I was tensed up when I saw the bubbles coming from your rebreather. But you had fail safes and it was no problem, even if the rebreather would fail. That took away a LOT of my fears. I have written to a diving school 5 minutes ago. I wanna try it out sooo bad now. Thank you for focusing on safety and lifting the fear of a lot of non divers and maybe for giving me a new hobby?

I know nothing about diving, but you guys are extremely educational and entertaining 😂! I have been hooked on your channel for sometime, keep up the great content guys. Stay safe❤

I want to say thank you to Gus and Woody for your content. It's relaxing and very informative. I thought I heard you say you live in ATL, I'm in Bham, AL. I'm open water certified but always had problems understanding the calculations on the dive card for multiple dives. So I learn alot from you both. You can tell you're good hearted people and that you care. You both remind me of The Dukes of Hazzard..... everyone gets along at the end of the day! You are refreshing compared to alot of other TV content. I'm not sure if you have reviewed the following, but I wanted to share the name of the link on KZread. It's called: SUCKED THROUGH A TINY HOLE-BYFORD DOLPHIN INCIDENT. Feel free to say hello to me... Ron, from Alabama!
Once upon a time lived two divers making the impossible possible ! 🐙🐟🐳🦄
Damn how much weight have you shed dude? I'm inspired rock on! 💪🏻
When i see a new video from you guys, it makes my day. You are the best!
Gus you are looking great! Very fit! I'm doing the same thing losing weight and getting back in shape. I've cut back on fast food and pop... mostly haha. The 10 hour shifts of walking at work have gotten way easier and clothes are fitting better. Good luck man! I feel so much better then I did before, like last year!
Gus comes up from his dive sounding like Tom Waits
Awesome job! Great content as always!
That's totally fascinating!
a big rebreather company should find who owns the patent on that and buy it or lease it. tech like that should not be left in the past.
Great video. Gus you're looking so healthy lately, keep up the great work brother! 👍👍

Security through obscurity. Just because it works people who get to comfortable could end up making more problems for themselves if they dont have the experience of what to do next if things take a turn. Obviously you would just switch to open circuit if it failed.

Omg how cute are the little heads captioning what you are saying under water! 😊

I don’t know for certain, but that scrubber is so rare that even if it was in production I’m not really sure how many of these exist out in the world. Maybe less than 20 globally. Who knows.

Gus, I love your cute little matching Minions helmet and flippys. Always had a feeling you were a Minionatic
I've heard Woody make the comparison with car batteries a couple of times when talking about the caustic nature of the scrubber. Car batteries are acidic not basic. They contain diluted sulphuric acid. Love your stuff, keep up the good work!
Looking Good Gus! You too Woody. Stay safe, I dont want to see you guys hurt.❤

Great job and Gus you look fabulous.
You guys need to do a van tour, man that van looks nice.
New dive talk content grab your snorkel and flippers let's get some Bubba burgers then enjoy some diving
Even though you are 100% sure about the theory and the consequences, please don't test it in reality because it could have taken a toll on your life under water especially in the over head environment. Because you have had always condemned the divers for not being cautious during a cave dive so compared to that this is super dangerous when you are volunteering to test a product despite being aware about the side effects. Wish you all the best and please shoot and upload your dives so that we can get to learn lot more. ❤
Even in videos where yall are together in person, the orientation is the same, Woody on our left, and Gus on our right :)
the membrane on the outside is a semipermeable membrane like your cell walls. they are very expensive to produce but have some great advantages when it comes to flooding a rebreather and preventing channeling in the sorbe. I think that now the membrane should be a lot cheaper because they are more common and we could see this coming to other rebreathers soon.
BEFORE - Looking good guys! Nah haven't seen the vid yet so good luck. AFTER - Nice job you did well obviously - could feel the happiness from here.
Haha so cool! Great video! After all the joking in the intro I was surprised at how much as was still on the edge of my seat! Haha
Thts amazing I can definitely see the science Mikes very smart amazing system thanks for the video how long can you dive on that type of rebreather
There is a video on Blue world of a diver rebreather turning caustic. Great invention by Mike Young!
IDK if its the same stuff, but the Russian navy used to use something that wasn't just toxic but would explode on contact with water.
If he dies…he dies! Favorite movie Line of all time.
Gus, you look like you’ve lost an entire person in terms of your weight. It’s genuinely astounding. As a naturally skinny guy, I can tell you with confidence that neither I nor 99% of your viewers know the amount of work it takes to lose that weight and keep it off. From everything I’ve seen and read (not experienced, I’m privileged to not have to deal with being overweight), it takes effort just short of moving a mountain to make the changes you’re making. It is an entire lifestyle shift in every aspect. I’d love to hear more about your experience in general. You guys are both metabolic gas masters, so I’m sure you’re aware, but 80% of that weight you lost, Gus, you lost through respiration. Exhaling the broken down fat as CO2 accounts for nearly all of the weight lost. That’s a LOT of breathing to fuel a LOT of hard work. I’m rambling now, but I’ve never been diving, I’ve watched you guys for literally years, and I’m just so happy for you, Gus. Both of you bring me a lot of joy.
What can say…Thank You Mike Young
That thing looks so delicate I don't know how Gus was manhandling it like that. I'd be terrified to touch it lol🎉
Impressive guys.!
Damn! Gus is looking incredible!

This is what people mean when they say civilians get military technology 25 years later. "If you think this is cool, you should see the classified stuff."
Since you guys seem to be getting a lot deeper into the technical aspects of rebreather diving, I would like to hear what you think of the safety record for rebreathers. There was a pretty good presentation from Rebreather Forum 4 where DAN tried to estimate the rebreather fatality rate and found that it was around 2-4 per 100,000 dives. That would mean that as many as 1 in 25 divers on average wouldn't live long enough to see their 1000th rebreather dive. This would put rebreather in a comparable category as some of the more extreme danger sports.
Ha, pretty cool video! It is a bit mind boggling that this thing is 25 years old!

crazy what they could create in the past, i asked an expert what it would take to recreate this and they said "we can't, we don't know how"
great experience. thank you. one thing I don’t understand : if the loop is fully flooded why don’t the sensors get wet from the inhale side (where the special membrane would not protect anything) ?
