Some day, after the aliens land and teach us about the galaxy, and upgrade our power plants to nuclear fusion, and teach us how to teleport, and cure cancer, and it is seen by all that their equipment operator's manuals are all written in S. I. units, the United States will then convert to the metric system. Until then, it's Little House on the Prairie reruns for everybody.

Im confused.
1. Why would Nitrogen dissolve more as you get lower, the water pressure isnt forcing nitrogen molecules into the blood solution. Because your blood vessels dont compress under all that pressure?
2. Why cant you just breathe out the nitrogen bubbles once they form in your blood?

Im a scuba diver. this is an awsom and simple vid describing the effects of pressure on living organismes. I know divers from all over the world. none of them have any prob with the units of measure. they are common enough to be understandable everyplace. thanx TED.

For the love of God please learn to use the metric system. It's just painful to watch anything scientific when it isn't in the metric system. No quantity or measurement relates to one another, but in metric, it does.

cool video but my main question was WHY does going deeper cause more pressure?
is it the weight of the water? or difference in gravity? or some sort of chemical that gets more potent at deeper levels?

Who releases fish back into the ocean with a fishing rod lowering it with decompression stops? Lmao I wonder how many do this as opposed to just cutting the line and throwing it back

Give a like if you played Tomb Raider 2 as a kid, had no idea what water pressure is, and thought it was awesome when Lara Croft swam to the bottom of the ocean

When your stomach is compressed with air wants to burp, how pressurized is your stomach? How extra in hPa?
Ratio of Ready to burp stomach: Empty stomach

reply

33 feet = 1 metre
14. 7 psi = 1 atm
For every 1 metre depth pressure increases by 1 atm.
SI unit makes a whole lot of sense than Imperial Unit.

I fish on oceans and fresh water and never seen a fish float after I toss it over. Maybe that species does that but this sounds fake
