    When I was young, I so wanted to be a deep diver. I grew up lifting furniture for a moving company and was used to hard work, but I wasn't disciplined, and I got off track in my youth. Desk jobs that weren't terrible were the best I could do, and not the adventure I wanted. Very cool vid. Dangerous job, but looks exciting.

    I heard somewhere that divers in the (de)compression tanks spend up to 28 days getting their body adjusted for the pressure at the depths they are diving and that it can sometimes be as much as 19 times to pressure of the surface?
    I couldn't believe that was right.
    Is it really as much as that?
    If so, it certainly proves that any space travel to planets with considerably denser (right word?) atmospheric conditions would definitely be possible and allow humans to walk on the the surface, providing the appropriate "acclimatisation" was implemented and the correct equipment was used.

    • @diverandy77
      @diverandy77  5 років тому +16

      It can be more than 19 times. At sea level the pressure is 1 Atmosphere (ATM) at 10m it is 2ATM, 30m is 4ATM, 100m is 11ATM. I have dived at 190m/20ATM and the deepest ever dive was to 701m/71.1ATM.

      Ok your comment is 3 years old, but anyway. They don't decompress for 28 days, but they live under pressure for 28 days, working, sleeping etc. Then after 28 days they decompress and go home. If they're pressurized to the pressure equal to 100 meter depth (330 feet), it takes approx. 3 days of decompression. Kinda crazy that my father did this for 20 years... he was rarely ever home.

    Stupid Question: Assuming the Diving Bell is at a depth of, let's say, 300 meters. What would happen if someone would climb down the hatch into the water at that depth only half-way down, submerging his body up until his belt? Would you actually feel the water pressure even if you just stuck your arm in the water? Without a diving suite, forgot to mention.

      Agm Smith It seems as if for every 100 feet, they do a day of decompression and then an extra day added on top. At 300 feet, they would do 4 days of decompression. The reason being that they surpass the normal bottom time to such an extent that they need to decompress THAT much.

    Hey i have a few questions... im not a very experienced diver though (im only 14 lol) so if this seems ignorant im sorry. Do you use heliox while diving this deep? And is that a warm water suit you are wearing while going down the diving bell? what depth are you at and what task are you doing at the ocean floor? Lastly how long is your decompression obligation at that depth?

    • @diverandy77
      @diverandy77  Рік тому +1

      Yes the breathing mix is Heliox. Yes it's a warm water suit. The water comes down from the ship and is regulated by a valve on the divers hip. In this video we were conducting valve ops and fitting a flushing hose to a manifold. Depth was around 100m. Decompression takes roughly 1 hour for every metre. 100m = 100 hours of decompression, but that is a very rough guide.

      @diverandy77  3 роки тому +2

      Yes about 5 degrees Celsius. The suits we wear have hot water pumped into them. There's a valve on the hip that regulates the flow and we can ask the diver supervisor to make the water hotter or colder to suit what we are doing.

    This may be a ridiculously dumb question but when you open the hatch to let the divers out of the bell does that water not come in because the bell itself is pressurized to the same pressure as the surrounding water?

    • @diverandy77
      @diverandy77  2 роки тому

      That is kind of true. The deeper we dive, the less Oxygen we have in the breathing gas. As a result it can be more difficult to breathe, especially when exerting yourself. The best practice is to remain calm, relaxed and carry out the diving activities as efficiently as possible.
