	wrt 28m at 30m, no - yon masochist hasn't taken in any more
Oxygen, he has one lungful to last him. The pressure might do up, but
his lungs get smaller. Now if he were to take one breath at 30m from an
aqualung, I don't know - anyone willing to try? I think there are drugs
available which knock out the breathing reflex??

	Now here's a question - At surface, el butcho has 12l vital
capacity (lung size). At 120m (=13bar) his lungs should be a little
under 1l. Chances are that they aren't, so what gives? There must be a
hell of a pressure trying to force body fluids *into* his lung spaces.
Is emphysema or pneumonia common for this type of thing?

	The vulture like public has a right to know...

	Jason.
