You should take note. It is things like this you need to know if you reverse off a deep water dock. Never come up faster than the smallest bubble. That's if you can manage to get out of the submerged Rangie that is.

thought if you did it on one breath, like free divers you can ascend at any speed ya like and not decompress.
This is a bit off topic now....:cool:

Who mention HeliOX? I haven't a fecking clue about that. I was talking about Nitrogen, the major cause of decompression sickness in SCUBA diving.
You can kill yourself by injecting air into a vein (artery?) no need to go diving.

No you said the bends and the narks were the same thing i think. They are not. In scooby do diving, yes nitrogen in the capillaries results in the bends. But only if you don't watch your bottom time or if you carry enough air for an extended stay and don't decompress. You cannot get the bends if you don't go below 30 feet anyway. HeliOx Helium /Oxygen is what is used for extended deep diving below 130feet to get ride of the raptures of the deep, as it is called, you get with Nitrogen. So in that case it would not be Nitrogen that gave you the bends, but you can still get it if you don't decompress.

Yeah that's true was trying to have a joke. No need to get bloody technical.:p:p:p
 
TOME FOR MY TWO PENETH
Decompression sickness known as divers' disease, the bends or caisson disease) describes a condition arising from dissolved gases coming out of solution into bubbles inside the body on depressurisation. DCS most commonly refers to a specific type of scuba diving hazard but may be experienced in other depressurisation events such as caisson working, flying in unpressurised aircraft and extra-vehicular activity from spacecraft.
Since bubbles can form in or migrate to any part of the body, DCS can produce many symptoms, and its effects may vary from joint pain and rashes, to paralysis and death. Individual susceptibility can vary from day to day, and different individuals under the same conditions may be affected differently or not at all. The classification of types of DCS by its symptoms has evolved since its original description over a hundred years ago.
Although DCS is not a common event, its potential severity is such that much research has gone into preventing it, and scuba divers use dive tables or dive computers to set limits on their exposure to pressure and their ascent speed. Treatment is by hyperbaric oxygen therapy in a recompression chamber. If treated early, there is a significantly higher chance of successful recovery.

I did not, read it again. I introduced Nitrous oxide to widen the topic and said that the bends was nitrogen bubbles in the blood stream, which for SCUBA diving at least, is correct..

Laughing is Nitrous Oxide, laughing gas:hysterically_laughi:hysterically_laughiNitrogen bubbles in the blood stream is the bends, divers disease:eek: As for joints, thats a mugs game.

Helium is a laugh, a lung full of Helium produces a high pitched sqeeky voice:)

Yes that is the bends (decompression sickness). But is not Nitrogen narcosis (raptures of the deep) which is a totally different thing.
 
as for free diving because your not actuly breathing while down and your down for such a short length of time i believe the record stands at 11.5 mins for static apnoea you dont get presure saturation
as a sub note did you know that at 100m your lungs are about the size of an orange

And your balls the size of a pea no doubt. Good luck to those who do it as a sport, need their bloody bumps feeling. 300 + foot is a bloody long way back up even with a tit in your mouth.

Think you may have been implying that Nitrogen would not make the car laugh. Well of course it wouldn't. But nitrogen in the blood stream causes both things. The Narks and Bends. You implied it just causes the bends. I think at least that's how it came accross.:):)

Well if you want to get truely technical about it. It does depend how deep your dock is. But say it was 60 feet for ease. At that depth the pressure is two atmospheres. 29.4 psi. So your in your Rangie at the bottom of the dock. You have to wait until the pressure equalises before you can get a door open. That last pocket of air where you take a breath before you try to regain the surface is at 29.4 psi, the same as the water around it. If you don't purse your lips and put your head back to let the pressure out as you rise you would stand a chance of a bursted lung. Just holding your breath until you got to the surface would be a very bad option.

Are you no nearer with the box? Bit of a bugger that, hope mine does not go tits up. Fingers, toes, arms, legs and nuts crossed.

Afraid no progress at the moment, I started with a cold after the New Year, developed into severe Brochitis and conjunctevitus (can't spell those) All my get up and go has got up and gone:eek:
Also waiting for my mate to create an open ended service pit which will make yanking it out easier:)

I stopped smoking in 71 Tony, but still suffering the effects. It's annoying because there is a lot to do and ever fewer years to get it all done:(

Yeah know what you mean. I am waiting for RS turbo engine block to come back from machine shop so i can rebuild it for my lad. With it clamped in engine stand and sat next to it, i can just about do it if i take my time. But it will take me a while, no more than a mornings work in the old days. Sex is still the same though. 30 seconds for the actual act, interposed by getting my breath back breaks. Total one hour. ;);)
