This is what is wrong with diving today. Steve, you are one serious idiot. I just hope you are not a dive instructor, but anyopne this stupid almost has to be. Let me assure you, moron, that the apparent limit of deep air was long ago tested using controlled circumstances, and it is either side of 500 feet before comeplete shutdown occurs, and we are talking a few feet either way, like the width of a roadway, for example. What has not been established is the limit of how many times one can safely perform what was once thought to be dangerous, like what I do. So far I see no limit, but then a stroke like you does not have the mental or phyical capacity , nor the balls, to deal with anythign that requires what that does. What makes no sense is why anyone would want to do something like that. Why not go see how much anethesia you can handle? Why not get out the baseball bat, and grease it up?
