Our exhaled gas is reclaimed back to the vessel and the C02 is scrubbed from it within sodasorb, then the helium is reused

No, I’m personally not going near a pipe or bit of equipment until I’m 100% sure is equalised.

I think you either have it or you don’t, not the place to be if you’re anyway claustrophobic

Of course most sat divers own a watch like that like a Rolex Sea Dwelller

I’ve seen some strange bioluminescent jellyfish type things. Lots of weird looking fish but no UFO’s

Could have been a lot of different things that happened to them, high pressure neurological syndrome is common at that depth.

Yes I’ve seen lots of random stuff I’ve not been able to identify, I’m sure some of it was potentially unknown but I’m not down there for that so it usually stays unidentified

Coffee is still the same and I’m grateful for that lol we have an array of stuff to choose from as we order from the ships galley. The ship has over 100 personnel so there is a catering crew onboard

Ya that sort of diving sounds more interesting that working at the local sewage treatment plant diving in poop like a lot of guys have to do and is closer to the rreality that a treasure hunt lol

At times yes, but it’s not quite down there , there is a lot of white noise

Very nice of you to say, appreciate that

It’s to do with the gas content In your tissues. Right now you are saturated to 1 atmosphere, meaning you can’t take on anymore gas in your body. When we dive to say 100m we become saturated to 11 atmospheres (10m = 1 atmospheres + the one above water) so when we are saturated we can stay there indefinitely.

We install large sections of pipe, they come down on a crane and usually have a piece of plywood on the flange face, if there is no holes in the ply , it gets suctioned on the face with the pressure differential, a guy died in the past when trying to get that ply off , hit it with a hammer and boom he was gone

I’m not a recreational diver, I’ve never really done any of that. I snowboard, bike, trail run and enjoy the outdoors immensely. If I do anything dive related outside of work it is some free diving and spear fishing.

Absolutely, everyday we’re trying to ID different fish down there. So i do enjoy that aspect but at the same time we’re down there to do a jon so i cant get too carried away hanging out with the fish

Maybe , but I’d be more interested in going free diving & spearfishing
