Naw, I do this all the time to increase my vital capacity, and the cool thing is that you don't need to inflate your BC to float on the surface. The air in your neck floats your head well out of the water. >How come I can't feel my fingers or toes after a no stop dive at 180 FSW with >a bottom time of 60 minutes? Did you forget to light up a pack of smokes just before the dive? I find that this helps lower my gas consumption. Maybe it was something you ate? I like eating chili-cheese dogs with lots of onions just before the dive (it helps with the out-gassing). >Why can't I use Argon instead of Nitrogen in my trimix for a 300 ft. dive >(won't it keep my lungs warmer?) Hydrogen is the gas of choice. A 50/50 mix is good, but remember to keep your ppO2 below 5 or so. >How come my eyes pop out of their sockets every time I dive to 250 fsw with >my drysuit and no inflator? Again, the chili-cheese dogs can help you if you have no inflator. >Why shouldn't I use Plutonium in my weight belt with the deluxe crotch >straps? Just use Mercury in your tanks it's easier to find. Then you don't need to wear a weight belt. Just don't go upside-down for too long. >Everytime I fill my O2 tank to 6000 psi it explodes and ruins my friend's >Haskell and burns down his house - why? > >My friend John tells me that humans can breathe water, and is going to teach >me how on our next dive to 400 fsw - how come we use tanks then? I like to kill 2 birds with 1 stone. I breathe liquid O2 because it is safer to handle, and you don't get that salty taste. >I just gotta know... And I'm the one to tell you. I'm a NASTI certified dumpster diver instructor trainer, and I have to wear oversized jackets because all my patches don't fit on my normal ones. Jon P.S. This is just for fun, so please don't get pissed off. Try having some fun once in a while.
