maybe we can supply some greenies with 20 foot snorkel hose (we dont want to pollute the air do we??)and tell them theyll be ok if the have a 75 lb. weight belt tied to them so it wont slip off!??? better to be safe than sorry!maybe we can get a big group of them together for this "happening"??:)

You can make a 2 man diving set up with a bellow. One guy up top working the bellow to pump air down to the diver. When I saw it done they had 2 guys up top working bellows and one guy down 20ft.

that sounds like what I made several years ago. it work with 20 feet of one inch soft plastic hose and used two ping pong balls for valves ,one for intake one for exaust. Someone borrowed it one night from my truck and I never made another one. One problem was not the lenght of the hose but the depth of water would collapes the hose. but it really worked well. ....wallyMi

Actually can be done with a 12 speed bike derailor attached to a t-80 but not sure of depth and you need a bicycling fool for a partner-John
