Subnautica But I CAN'T BREATHE IRL When I'm Under Water 

Hey guys :) Just in case this needs to be said - I of course don't encourage anyone try this themselves and if you do decide to try it, please stay safe and don't risk getting hurt! ❤

That challenge sounds mad. But now imagine this, with a random spawn. Like imagine you spawn in the lost river dear god-

respect for bacon forgetting that he could go to island for diamonds instead of going to bulb zone

Fun fact 1: It's actually harder to hold your breath underwater, because the water pushes towards your chest. Fun fact 2: You can find gel sacks in the big trees in mushroom forests, so hope this helps on your future chellenges!

Realistically, you would only have to hold your breath in the last 45 seconds that actually represent Ryley's lung capacity, but I like the challenge idea.

Crafting an Airbladder would have made this challenge way easier especially for deeper dives.

"the gel sacks are like diamonds, in the way that they don't spawn in anywhere shallow *at least as far as i know* ." Mountain Island: Am i a joke for you?

It would’ve been cool if you recorded how long you could hold your breath after to see if you improved

Can’t even hold my breath for 40 seconds props to you man

You can find gel sacks in the sparse reef at like 100m down and/or near life pod 19, where you can also find shale, lithium, rubies, moonpool and thermal plant fragments, as well as the vehicle upgrade console. Just a tip!

"I've never been more immersed in this game" Hehe... immersed... in water

"Warning: Emergency Power Only, oxygen production offline" *casual panic at 500m*

It'd be really cool to see this in BZ making use of the oxygen plants (I'm too lazy to try it myself)

this dude has played this game so much that he probably isnt scared of any leviathans now

Really liked the video! at first thought it was crazy but then a minute and 30 seconds is double the size of the normal oxygen tank in game so just doing without upgrading oxygen tanks is sorta similar but ya know holding you breath in real life

This is me whenever there's an underwater scene in a movie... I think someday I won't be able to regret it anymore... Edit: I also started holding my breath with you... hoping my lungs are as big or bigger than yours, wait that didn't really sound right...

You can enrol into scuba diving after this mad training!

Hey did you know that at the island where the big shoot bang bang gun is, there's a ton of diamonds if you just fallow the path. There's diamonds, gold, and lithium on the paths. Also the gel sacks can be found in the grand reef next to the floating island and next to life pod 19.

respect to bacon for forgetting that gel sacks spawn in the sparse reef

Keeping the Subnautica community alive with your unique and entertaining commentary and video ideas!

This is one of the best subnautica channels

6:34 even just one frame from that going deep is terrifying for me the bloodkelp dive is also super scary

fun fact, when your face comes in contact with water your brain turns off certain parts allowing it to be more oxygen efficient. That's why people can hold their breath better underwater

My guys risking his life to entertain us. Respect

At first I thought you had completely lost your mind, only for me to remember my first playthrough of the game. So good job.

Not only is this an awesome video but it’s An awesome channel the fact that you take the time respond to as many comments as possible is amazing!

Love the video! The amount of time and effort you put into your videos relly improve them!

This will be a wonderful video as always

For more immersion I recommend holding breath when he dives in the game.

cool epic beans tip!: you can go to the mushroom forest near the aurora, and the wall between the crash zone and mushroom forest, there should be a lot of shale on the wall (for newer players, shale gives you either: gold, lead, and you guessed it! diamonds! yippee)

you should do this in VR, that’d be a really immersive experience.

Thanks for this, Bacon! haha But imagine if you unfortunately "drowned" in that chair playing subnautica! You really took a risk for this content ; P That would have been embarrassing!

thanks for always reading and responding to all comments its really nice to see how much effort you put in and its really rare to find that these days

Love your content bro! Keep up the great work.

I had actually forgotten about ParashockX's existence before this video

you can find gel sacks and rubies in the Sparse Reef by the lifepod, I think it might be a bit shallower than the Blood Kelp zone, its also where I always get my first gel sacks so I can farm some more Edit, just realized the area you stumbled across was the Sparse Reef and that's where you found the gel sacks, I feel so dumb now XD

I feel bad for bacon putting himself through all these painful challenges for our entertainment

You always make me want to replay Subnautica lol, I might have to try this challenge for myself as long as I have the seamoth

Man with this much effort going into this video I felt like I had to comment Love your stuff man I started binging you a couple days ago and i'm still going lol love how much dedication you have, I tried to hold my breath and barely made it to 40 seconds and seeing you look physically tired and a little sick from holding your breath actually made me a little sad Love all your stuff and try not to torture yourself anymore!!

If i attempted this challenge i would just die like i cannot hold my breath for more than 20 seconds.

I'm curious if he's gotten better at holding his breath after this challenge lol

i play with myself to your videos, especially this one!

YOO you actually linked the no water challenge after mentioning it! I haven’t seen it yet but I will definitely watch it!

Who else tried the challenge with him 😂🔥

In water, you can hold your breath longer since your Heart rate decreases, so 1 min and 20 sec is 1 min and 30 sec

this was a really good video i enjoyed it alot , would of loved to see and hear you gasp for air as you resurfesd from the final blood kelp dive just for that extra viewer immersion

I love how you used the TF2 soundtrack in this video. It helps me forget that you're getting asphyxiated for my own entertainment.

I think I would love to play like this I definitely want to try it! I play very slow and methodical and love to take my time to build beautiful bases and their interiors as well, after such hard work with all that breath holding, it would really make for a nice place to relax in and just enjoy looking at and take pride in the work you've put into it :)

great video have been a fan for a long time love your videos.

fun challenge! i usually try to do this when starting a new subnautica playthru but give up pretty quick. 😁Trying to navigate the sunken ships on a breath hold can be torture too. respect!

People didn’t see the respect Riley had for holding his breath, until this guy came

I love your videos. Keep up the nice work!

This challenge is my favorite of all of your challenges

the concept of this video is crazy unique also i won't be able to keep count of days waiting for bz without water anymore cause of irl stuff but deep inside i will still be waiting... till the end of time

Late to the party but to be fair, you start with only 45 seconds of air in game and it takes the air tank to get up to 80 seconds of air, so you're apparently a lot better than they are.. especially if you consider when deep diving without a rebreather 80 seconds is more like 60 or less (depending on how deep you dive) I added a mod to mine the mega tank that gives 15 minutes of air, which makes it much more realistic to real air tanks at those depths.

That seems super fun! I have practiced holding my breath before and have gotten up to 4 minutes. I definitely need to try this myself and beat the game with it. Maybe I even limit myself to no vehicles except cyclops to make the endgame a little more spicy.

If you want a harder challenge, do this but beat the game without vehicles as well. Its very hard but you only have to hold your breath when your oxygen is 0 and the screen darkens.

Havnt seen such a challenge abt subnautica 😂 nic3 vid man

You can find gelsack easily in the crash site at about 30 meters deep and for the diamond, you can find them at barely surface in the cave on the island with the gun! ;) But I guess it will make a non-entertaining video. Nice challenge and great work as usual!

that happy and relaxing ending has the very totally, relaxing and safe music to match

Warner: teleports you out of the Cyclops, very far away and your being chased by a Sea Dragon. Rip

I feel like we have all held our breath when going underwater in a video game atleast once so this is a cool idea

OMG, even watching you go through this challenge was stressful. My lungs wouldn't be able to handle that)

Yeah, Gun Island + I had a spawn with a gel sac on the beach. Obviously that'd require underwater grow beds and a lucky spawn but hey you made it. :)

great video as always

Crazy to go to the bulb zone instead of the island while holding your Breatth💪

the diamond hunt for the laser cutter could've been alot easier, you can get loads of them from the gun island.

The madman actually did it! Great stuff.

Just a quick note, there is a much more shallow place you can get diamonds. At the mushroom forest closest to the aurora, there is a cliff out of rock which outcrops can spawn on with around a 1/3 chance of getting diamonds.

cool challenge lmao didnt think anyone would go this hardcore in subnautica

Love the vids And btw you can find daimonds on the island where the cannon building is in the cave area

For the next time, the jelly sacks are also found in the mushroom forest. They grow at the giant tree.

Great video! For next challenge you should try being submitted to radiation until the aurora is fixed :) !

Bacon, if you need a diamond just go to the gun Island instead of making your lungs suffer and a gel Sack is available in the mushroom forest at 200m deep😂

You shouldve done sparse grand reef caves, specifically where officer keens lifepod falls. Its only 200-300 meters deep and it has ruby, sandstone outcrops, qaurtz, shale outcroppings, and more important gel sacks. Its also right next to a large wreck, and an entrance into the blood trench

Unique idea for a challenge, but please be careful. It goes without saying, but this could potentially be dangerous. Love your content and stay safe, Bacon.

The game already scares me so badd and now even holding your breath,😂 i would'nt do it but damnnn that was epic

Amazing video as always!

Great vid man

thanks for this idea gonna try this

I’m pretty sure you can find gel sacks at the mountains just outside the giant gun, like barely submerged in water. You could stand on the beach and pick them up.

Reminds me of how when I watched movies as a kid I would always try to hold my breath when the characters were underwater.

This was a fun video to watch! Next Challenge - this but in VR 😂

I'm glad to see that you are still responding to the comments even after hitting 250k. Congrats!

Bacon always pushes through his comfort zone to give us some QUALITY ENTERTAINING vids

Bacon just wanted to let you know your videos make me smile every time I see the notification from your new videos!!!

here's a challenge: build a base using EVERY resource in the map. seriously, ALL of it. every outcrop, every creepvine, every large lump of ore; deplete the ENTIRE map of resources; including the edible lifeforms, and you can't use the ion cube fabricator.

I saw how you were struggling with the gel sacks but there’s actually a few at the mountain island and it’s only about 40-50 meters down and that’s where I get mine

lol and i thought i was being dumb for holding my breath when my character was underwater awesome video bro

I also have a challenge idea that I did, and it IS possible. Beating Subnautica, without holding your breath, meaning I cannot go below 45 units of oxygen. This is possible due to the Crash Zone Spit (Aurora sand mounds) can spawn metal salvage. I was able to collect a medkit from the medical kit fabricator, eat a nutrient block to regain some health, and carefully time my time in the radiation blanket to make it out slimly alive. With the 4 titanium from the metal salvage, I could turn 3 into a standard oxygen tank, and the challenge was pretty much normal once I made a vehicle. However, in those moments where I didn't, I would only have 30 seconds with a standard tank and 90 with a high capacity one. I will also try your challenge even though it is a bit unrealistic with the oxygen tanks work, but as you prefaced at the beginning, we are pretending they simply expand your lung capacity.

you.. are mad XD this was a worrysome, yet, wholesome video

The video was great I'll definitely try to play subnautica like that as well some time. Also diamonds are really easy to obtain on the mountain island. The caves there are filled with the right stone fragments and you don't even have to dive. just noticed somone commented that already sorry

I challenge you to either play Subnautica with every single mod you can find installed, or make a mod for subnautica in a video. If none of those sound challenging enough, I have seen videos about a mod that makes the game a lot harder by implementing the bends and other real-life problems of diving. Good luck and keep up with the awesome videos!

you are actually correct about the first 2 limestone outcrops always being copper and titanium, in fact all pairs of limestone for the entire game are always 1 copper 1 titanium guaranteed due to the way they programmed the probabilities

Crashfish: ah yes! A nice happy person! Plant: ah yea! Ima let you out so you can make them happier! Crashfish: ....... Plant: make them happier... please Crashfish: I go boom Plant: NAUR-

uhhhh yeah gelsacks spawns at the gun... Nice Vid Tho I love your channel!

I can't even hold my breath for 10 seconds,and you can hold it for an entire minute wow.

Feel like this is something we’ve all done, just with movies that have underwater scenes, still on finding Nemo!

I don’t mind you showing your face. In fact, I love it! It’s one of my prime contracts for subscribing!

You can find a gel sack on the alien island as well as the deepslate outcrop.
