I mean, diving O2 rebreathers too deep and convulsing was the subject of a Sea Hunt episode, although few of you may remember this from first run. I have heard of doctors who, in trying to get an embolism subject to respond, will put them on pure O2 in a chamber at 165'. Sometimes it works, they say. But other than a last resort in accident management, what does that have to do with technical diving?
