    For a 150 ft dive that lasts 1 hour at depth you would require an estimated 250minutes of decompression time assuming the only gas you were breathing is air. This rough estimate was calculated using a square profile with 10ft deco stops and a 40/85 Gradient Factor.

    @@lowristocrat3824 It can, but with such an extreme dive profile I dunno how much of a difference it would make. Gas mixes such as nitrox, trimix, and heliox can be used to do things like reduce decompression time, extend time at depth, or increase the max operational depth. Nitrogen and oxygen are both narcotic and toxic above certain partial pressures. So with training, careful planning, and the right equipment, its possible to plan a dive that utilizes different mixtures at different depths to provide the desired dive profile. But it takes refined skill and equipment, and since I just hold a basic open water dive cert, that's the extent of my knowledge.

You need a series of really good and expensive air filters and water/oil separators to battle that problem, or you just use screw type compressor. Love your content and the way you tell your stories!

    Years ago I worked in a small dive shop on an island in the Pacific, the small compressor we used was essentially the same as used for tires, except that a system of filters (charcoal I believe) was used to clean the air that I pumped into 80 cf tanks. That's what I recall. I wonder if anyone has made the effort to introduce filters on the compressors they use to these divers. Or does it make a difference, I don't know. The shop also had a bunch of those frogman double hose regulators like Mike Nelson used on the TV show which looked pretty cool at the time. I don't remember seeing any PADI or NAUI cards or schools. The shop only rented to divers they schooled or divers affiliated with the US Navy. It wasn't unusual to see divers spearfish 300-400 lb grouper, or even larger bottom fish back then. The owner of the shop was one of the first divers approached by J Cousteau to test the SCUBA as invented by Cousteau.

    Modern diveing rules are more savety driven than anything else. You can go up and down in the collumn, higher pressure is the actual treatment for compression sickness. if he goes up to drop off a fish and then goes back down the nitrogen bubbles get compressed back down and hes fine. While he hops between surface and depth the actual pressure hes under is not as high as if he was constantly under water.

Was particularly epic in Tuamotu, French Polynesia, which is also where I learned how to scuba dive courtesy of the French Foreign Legion. That said, 75ft is my personal freediving record, which was quite deep enough thank you. Those guys who fish using pony bottles or air compressors... yikes. When I was 9 we came across a drifting panga in Baja California with a dead fisherman and air compressor in it. He made it back into his boat, but presumably succumbed to decompression sickness after. From the way he looked, it must have been an extremely painful way to go

    My grandfather used to spearfish whenever he could, he grew up during the Japanese colonization of the Philippines so he couldn’t really go to school, he decided he’d make a living off the sea, whether he was day fishing or night fishing he could dive up to 80-100 feet barefoot, no gear at all and could hold his breath for 2 minutes, said it was a lot slower though since he didn’t have a flipper when he first used to dive, notice how I singularly said “flipper” the man only had one flipper made out of a flat piece of plastic which he’d use to dive, my uncle now uses that same flipper whenever he goes fishing, he too can dive up to 20 meters or more, I also just use one flipper I made from a plastic barrel lying around in my dad’s construction yard but I can only dive 25 feet though :P I only get to see the sea every summer, can’t reach a depth of 20 meters just yet, hopefully one day.

    The sea nomads makes me wonder if in a few centuries jobs we take throughout our lives will make our bodies adapt to it. So like if we used our computers for many hours a day, everyday, would our eyes be more accustomed to our screens?

    I think a key ingredient is the danger involved. Having a small spleen makes you more likely to drown, but having irritable eyes... not a trait that will be quickly selected out.

    We also have badjao community (or sea jepseys) here in Philippine. There really good in diving probably because fishing is their number 1 source of income primarily spear fishing. Through the years of passing that kind of way of living they probably develop a very strong spleen.

    I was wondering why your channel was relatively quiet for a while. Thanks for making great content, as always. Any place with a lot of people in one spot seems to decimate the wildlife around the area. Its the same in the Caribbean too. Not that I blame them for trying to survive. I agree with you. While it is sad that old lifestyles die, I think its better for the people as well as the natural environment to help folks modernize. Its inevitable anyways, so all we can do is to help the smooth transition.

    The two videos were made in different places, although they are still of the same tribe, the one on Sumbawa has been slightly contaminated with the progress of the times and the mixing of tribes that has occurred through marriage, the tribes in the Bajo tribe on Sumbawa have also begun to wane. It's different from what NetGeo documented, they are still very natural and the tribes that NetGOE recorded are tribes in Sulawesi, they are still original, and the difference is that NetGeo made videos for years ago while this video was only made or uploaded a few months ago, due to the times the Bajo tribe has also been slightly affected by progress and has begun to abandon their diving habits a little, therefore their abilities begin to decrease, and everyone has different abilities.

    I think all races of people can free dive a similar amount, if you dive every day from a child you grow and adapt to it that's probably why they are great divers (bullcrap 15minutes as there would be video proof), its not just genetics its practice anybody who dives all day for their entire life will be able to do it no matter where they are from.

    That's an idyllic egalitarian view of nature and unfortunately nature doesn't know what egalitarian means. Genetics do play a role and can really change what animals can do and the way they live. I doubt in-experienced divers with 50% bigger spleens could easily out-match an experienced diver. But if both were experienced divers? The one with 50% bigger spleen would definitely have the advantage.

    @@massivecent3729 There's a paper on the research journal Cell. "Physiological and Genetic Adaptations to Diving in Sea Nomads" The proof is already there- just because you didn't see it yet doesn't mean it exists. You have a point though- the younger Bajau people dive with oxygen and have lost the ability to breathe longer under water than regular people- though they still have bigger spleens. They simply don't need to train themselves to breathe longer anymore. Our bodies are malleable enough that life and environment affect it- and skills not needed or used will be lot over the course of a lifetime even if you've got physiological advantages for it. The adaptation of bigger spleens still lives on in the local population- like how we have Wisdom Teeth for grinding up leaves but don't need them anymore.

    Love the way you ended the program. The answer to poverty is growth - that is the only possible answer. The only way to help save these aquatic environments is to reduce poverty, so that people can focus less on rote survival and more on creating and preserving a beautiful world. Wonderful, truthful documentary. Love your no-bullshit approach, that you gently criticized previous documentaries for avoiding the 100% truth, while also affording their creators credit for their monumental acheivements in bringing the world a version of these peoples' story. I also really like that you just showed things the way they are, and left your own perspective until the very end, after the viewer has had the opportunity to establish their own thoughts and make their own observations about how what they're seeing should make them feel. I appreciate that you afford the viewer that much credit.
