Except for the deco part. The boss says (after many years of commercial and Navy diving) "Everybody is a Jolly drunk when they are narked. You get down around 160 to 180 on air, and you get buzzed (he has been to 385 in a MK5 during test's. He doesnt remember, but the guys *inside* the sub reported he was tap dancing on the hull). When you talk to guys on the comms, they just happy as jaybirds. You have to remind them, sometimes often, why they are there. To go that deep, holding your air in your teeth, is insane." > So you guys have a choice, do the deep air and roll the dice or do it right > and use trimix. And come home.
