In this video I will show you why it is dangerous to hold your breath while scuba diving. And what you should not do when diving My Vlog Channel: / @lordchristianwedoey My Website: www.christianwedoy.com
The small air tank In the video: amzn.to/2sO2gA3 Review of the small air tank: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-A8oy_dQNfMw.html Video with the small air tank: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ing4JFkWQl0.html
I honestly don't know how to feel about you putting links to the spare air tank. If people who don't know the ins and outs of diving use something like that they can get in deep (no pun intendet) trouble
Christian Wedoy Question. Does this apply also to the ears? I just watched your video about it how you reduce ear pain under water pressure and noticed it's the same as our lungs. Underwater the pressure makes the air go out and it sacks in so you blow air and it fills up again. But if you dive to the surface with that now twice as much air, doesn't it also rupture the ear drums?
Christian bro how do you hold your breath so long😨 I'm 11and I'm just curious I subscribed liked turned on notification can u please give me a shot out please bro thanks
I work in emergency medicine and I would like to extrapolate on one of the points you made. If your lungs "rupture" or have any sort of hole poked in them, air will start filling the space in-between your lungs and rib cage, collapsing your lung and putting pressure on your heart causing what's called a tension pneumothorax; If the rupture is both excessive (large tear) and untreated it will kill you if the air isn't let out, which is done by a needle decompression (basically poking a hole in your chest to let the air out).
Nieland Thanks for explorating on that, I pinned your comment. I'll make a more indepth video later. Wanted to keep It short and simple this time, so more people would watch the whole video.
holding your breath on accent will cause an AGE. Tension pneumothorax while diving is normally caused by a sudden strain eg. Coughing while ascending in the water column. While both diving disorders are POIS’s AGE is the most likely thing to happen while tension pneumothorax is less likely to happen. But in some extreme cases both disorders can occur.
Nieland, Your definition seem to be mixing with a Cardiac tamponade. Tension pneumothorax occurs when air accumulates between the chest wall and the lung and increases pressure in the chest, reducing the amount of blood returned to the heart. Cardiac tamponade, also known as pericardial tamponade, is when fluid in the pericardium (the sac around the heart) builds up and results in compression of the heart.
@angelo7045 25ft no es nada, yo bajo a pulmón a más de 15 metros con una sola respiración, si yo puedo, no creo que tú tengas problema en bajar tan solo 7 metros
Thank you. For the same reason, my friend’s sister died in a scuba diving accident yrs ago. I hope amateur divers would not take this lightly and spend a few minutes watching this as it could save their lives. 🙂
It's amazing and scary how forgetting simple facts could be dangerous. This information was taught in school and would be forgotten if not constantly reminded in everyday life. Experience and constant reminders are always needed.
So basically, if using a snorkel or just inhaling and then diving, you can come up back to the surface without having to exhale because the amount of air in your lungs has been constant since you were at the surface. But if you're scuba diving, you need to exhale as you come up to avoid this issue. Good thing I don't do scuba diving :D Thank you for the explanation!
Papa Bless That's why you never scuba dive ALONE. Your dive buddy is your backup and you are hers. That's why nearly all dive rigs include two second stage regulators- one for you and an "octopus" in case your buddy needs it.
You don't have to exhale, just breathe normally. The point is you want your trachea not to be closed. If you breathe in while ascending nothing happens since your trachea is open and air can escape from there.
My dad has been putting me through scuba diving since i was 3, so it’s only natural that he taught me this pretty early on, but thanks for informing everybody of what happens and why scuba diving is not just free diving, but with a tank, but that it can be very dangerous if the diver is inexperienced.
Such a good explanation of the risk. I think companies advertising the small scuba tanks are so careless as they do not point out the risks associated with bad use of the device. Thanks again for this! Be safe..always breathe out when ascending in the water!!!
meloniada I think it's not the company but the user who is careless enough to try new things without knowing how to do them properly. You take the risk or you prepare for it, decide.
So many companies are careless! LOL Almost all companies are! That's why people must use their brains and be responsible and research before you just jump into things.
I made a few different backyard underwater breathing devices when I was like 12. I researched first and knew that you were never supposed to hold your breath while ascending. I kind of already knew this from taking bags to the bottom of our pool (10 ft. deep) and blowing air into them and watching them burst when I got 1 or 2 feet from the surface. Then I checked a balloon I filled at the surface and watch it go down as i descended and back up again as I ascended. I have been certified since I was 18 and am now 48. Thank you for putting this video out there for anyone to see and learn from before they do like I did at age 12. You might have saved someones life with this information and most likely they will be young at age. Thumbs up and God Bless bro.
JonesiBoy Beastmode .... If you take a breath at the surface and then hold your breath and descend to the bottom of your 12 foot pool and then go back up to the surface, you will be fine. No problems what so ever. I you take a compressed container of air down to the bottom of your 12 foot swimming hole, then you take a big breath of that air "at 12 foot of depth" and ascend to the surface while holding your breath yes, you will die. Your lungs will expand and explode and it will be a terrible way to go. Air at the surface will decrease as you go down in depth. Air at depth will increase as you come up towards the surface. It is simple if you want to see it for yourself. Blow up a balloon at the surface of your pool and take it to the very bottom. It will decrease in size. The same will happen but opposite if you blow a balloon up while on the bottom of your swimming pool. Watch it as you ascend up to the surface. It will get bigger and bigger until you reach the surface. So if you have some sort of air you can breath with and you are at the bottom of a 10 foot swimming pool and you blow your breath out and take a nice breath in from your air supply, you need to exhale as you ascend towards the surface. the air that you took at the bottom is smaller in volume because the pressure of the water. It will expand as you go up because the pressure will be less on it. Our lungs don't have nerve ending that will tell you that they are getting to full and are going to burst. Please, please get some training if you are curious about scuba diving and want to explore it. It is a really awesome sport and the underwater kingdom is so beautiful. I got very fortunate when I was younger and had someone tell me the same thing I just explained to you. That saved my life cuz I would not of had a clue as to the actual science behind it all. I hope this info helps you. God Bless
That's very nicely explained and without any hidden information. I really truly thank you for putting your hard work in to this section to safe lives... Thank you.
If you swim and dive normally without any air source then it's ok nothing will happen to you. The video is about having air tanks/source+holding breath while ascending, big difference. Never seen freediving videos or pearl divers? ... that's how it works.
@@epicatom8892 You're welcome and no problem. Since you never been aware of this let me explain it to you and others a bit more: When freediving the volume of air in your lungs remains the same, it only gets compressed with depth and on ascension toward the surface it goes back to normal volume, so no danger here. The danger is when on depth using air tanks (scuba diving) or any other air source (like some air pocket on a deeply submerged vehicle/boat) someone could inhale and fill his lungs with air then start ascending while holding his breath! Since gas volume expands going from high pressure to low pressure (depth to surface as seen on video above) his lungs might tear up or explode internally causing severe damage or death. In case one finds himself in this extreme scenario (submerged vehicle etc) he can fill his lungs with air and start ascending BUT HE MUST exhale every few seconds or even keep his trachea+mouth open and let air escape by itself until reaching the surface. This emergency maneuver is also taught in navy schools for divers/submariners who happen to have a special suite that does it automatically with a valve in it. Stay safe and never dive alone! Salam.
There is a slice of life anime series with scuba diving being a main part of it, it's called Amanchu! And they actually went over this same subject in one of the episodes. Nice to know the author did her homework and was giving accurate information. This video was very informative and seeing a visual example helps with the understanding.
It's also really important not to use an air tank that is made to be filled up by a standard air pump. It's best to get air from a certified dive shop or a place that will fill up your air tank with clean air meant for breathing. Components of a standard tire pump or sometimes need grease or oil to work which can get into the air. This can cause many problems when you're diving.
I never ever really understood what actually happens, and why the lungs rupture and why you have to lift slowly... after this video i actually get it what happens haha! Good presentation!
Fallen Mango what about the air between your lung and chest will i just poke a hole to my chest? :D Idk i will do some research... But hey we're learning here stuff all the time
I should be getting a free education here at Finland but here i'm outside taking sun and being on youtube Well i ain't in school when its sunny day 25°c we don't get that too often :D 2 weeks school more and then i'm free yay but then work start yay... well good money good life? Wtf i'm still doing here commenting random stuff.. bye :D Okay i lied i'm just skipping 2h of svenska :D be in school kids!
Great and VERY VERY important info you shared with everyone. It is very important facts that people or shops tell you when buying a small tank. You've probably saved that many life's with your info and maybe you don't know it. Great outstanding info and video. Thankyou
Fallen Mango "This was about deep diving." No, it was about ANY dive where you take in compressed air at more than 1 atmosphere of pressure. The greatest change in volume happens in the shallower portion of a dive, not the deeper portion. ("Deep diving," by the way, is defined in a recreational scuba context as greater than 60 feet / 20 meters down. The greatest risk of pulmonary barotrauma during ascent occurs in the final 33 feet / 10 meters of an ascent, particularly the last 15 feet / 5 meters.)
I cant beleive this isn't more common knowledge. Especially since there are those mini tanks that people can just buy. When I was younger I almost made a contraption out of a pressurized bottle and i had no idea until i stumbled upon a similar video to this. Gotta say thanks for putting this out there and i hope more people see it. Edited for grammar. Typed this on a phone lol.
Arak Drakoniz scuba diving is one of the most amazing things you could ever do. Take a class and make sure you take all safety precautions before you jump in and you’ll be fine. Of course everything has dangers but that’s what makes it even more special
Arak Drakoniz you don't hold your breath when your scuba diving because when you scuba dive you literally will already heave scuba gear from something but scuba diving is with a tank that you can breath in and out. freediving is holding your breath not scubadiving idiot
One thing that wasn't mentioned on the video. If you try holding your breath with scuba diving gear and start ascending, you'll FEEL the air expanding in your lungs. I presume it's possible to damage yourself, but it's not something you'll do completely by accident. The expanding gas wants out and your body reacts to that naturally. :)
So, when you are freediving, you can hold your breath all the way until you're back at the surface (without mattering the dept of the dive?)? If I got it right you can because is the same amount of air, yes?
JAffacakeSON BLAHA That law has to do with temperature. The subject at hand has to do with changing volume due to a change in relative pressure; the guy in the video simply misspoke and my comment is a correction of that.
Uriah Siner that’s true. Mass doesn’t change. The air did not leave and none was added so the mass is the same. The volume DOES change because of the pressure squishing the lungs basically making them smaller. Constant volume is used with temperatures.
Kei Kurono have you ever been hit in the stomach hard to where you have a hard time breathing. That's what it's like and you choke a bit before you can take a breath.
Kei Kurono Coming from a certified diver, as long as you don't hold your breath you can inhale an exhale normally, like you do above water.

I'm not into diving but curious about how much air (minutes?) is in those small reservoirs. And would these be usable in land-based situations like an air reserve in a fire/smoke/dangerous pollution case? (Obviously not exposing the canister to direct fire)
What happens if I take breath hold it under Water till I can no longer can but still try to exceed pushing the pain and my breath beyond my limits. Will that cos any damage to my lungs???
So, just holding your breath? And then putting mind over matter and continue holding it? No, that won't damage your lungs, but if you aren't trained to do that sorta thing you CAN pass out, and then you're in real trouble, especially if you're under water.
Wait so is it ok if I go to a pool hold my breathe go under water come back up and breathe But it’s not ok if I hold my breathe while deep diving with a snorkel thing
