u/MrWildspeaker 15h ago

Thank you. “POV” is almost as bad as “Nobody: “

u/Anne314 1d ago

Fuck no! But I'm a cork, I couldn't do that without a tank and a weight belt.

My roommate and I went swimming 2 weeks ago and he was asking how I wasnt exhausted already and I demonstrated exactly what happens if I actually try to swim down. Came back up to him cracking up cuz my ass floats.

u/Romero1993 1d ago

No, for various reasons.

I can't hold my breath that long, and I'm a weak and panicked swimmer

I haven't noped a blue hole this fast since my friend told me to Google "avatar rule 34"

u/29NeiboltSt 1d ago

I’m sure the other middle school kids love this joke.

u/yoda_mcfly 1d ago

It got mixed reviews like a lot of James Cameron's later work.

Guillaume Néry did it better/actually dove into a blue hole.

u/Royals-fan85 1d ago

How do her ear drums not implode?

7

u/codereef 1d ago

Equalizing your ears underwater can be done pretty easily. There are a few techniques. The valsalva maneuver is very common, and with practice you can even equalize without squeezing your nose. Surprisingly it is actually more difficult to equalize nearer to the surface because of the proportional change in pressure from air to underwater versus going a bit deeper while already underwater.

u/CupKitts 1d ago

I sure wouldn’t! 😃👍

u/NtGermanBtKnow1WhoIs 1d ago

If i knew how to dive, i'd definitely do that. i love deep sea dives, the deeper the better.

3

u/TheRealNooth 1d ago

If I could do this, I’d probably still prefer to bring oxygen. Needlessly risky.

1

u/NtGermanBtKnow1WhoIs 1d ago

Oh yeah of course. A proper deep dive with oxygen. But i was speaking hypothetically since i dunno how to dive at all and have never been anywhere in deep water.

u/big_d_usernametaken 1d ago

Nope.

Just nope.

1

u/ADumpsterFiree 1d ago

Can someone explain to me how tf people can swim that deeply without their ears imploding?

1

u/CptMisterNibbles 1d ago

Equalization techniques changing the pressure. Frenzel or VTO. Takes practice

u/gibson6594 1d ago

I thought your name is a play off Busta Rhymes. Lol

u/29NeiboltSt 1d ago

It is a pretty common repost here.

u/Necroma420 1d ago

I dont even like the ocean lol. I really wanna go on a boat sometime and go somewhere its just water in all directions, but I'll stay out of the water if I can help it. At least here it doesnt have that gross vegetation on the bottom like the lakes ive been to.

1

u/Effective_Pin_90 1d ago

if i could hold my breath that long absolutley!

1

u/big-bowel-movement 23h ago

No, I can’t hold my breath to even get to the jumping point, let alone for another minute while she falls down the abyss.

1

u/recruiterguy 15h ago

I literally ran out of breath before the clip ended. I'm certain that this little stunt is not in my immediate future.

1

u/RichieWitts 15h ago

Nope - just watching this I can feel something chasing me. I’m 100% sure that something is waiting for me there.

u/Sariluv88 15h ago

u/Difficult-Log9285 13h ago

Hells no. I would rather inhale deeply.

u/iSavedtheGalaxy 11h ago

Ever since I saw the video of the scuba diver involuntarily sinking to the bottom of the ocean, hell no.
