impressive video with the new box GOPRO: apnea among tiger sharks

Let's get serious again, narcosis exists and it is normal and demonstrated.

I learned very quickly during my first dives at GERS in 1955 when my instructor, who became my friend, the mate maurice Piovano took me to dive on the Artesien. There was 56 M and he gave me the whole program

 - At 45 M you feel good

- At 50 M you will see you feel better but a little weird, and also more sure of yourself

- At 55 M it's cold and above all you will hear your regulator whistling (A CG 45)

And there he added seriously, you pay attention because that's narcosis

Subsequently he took me to 70/80 M to retrieve exercise torpedoes that had not come up to the surface. As I was warned, it went well, but we really felt “ensconced mortal” as they say in Provence.

We did the job anyway, very calm, breathing gently (a steel sort 150 Kgs and always CG 45) we pulled the big chain and ammarait the torpedo

Slowly ascent, quiet landings, refrigerated in our foam rubber or Mutta di Gomma garments, out of the water, blow of tafia!

There is also always the box next door with Dr. Cabarrou

Despite all this at GERS, no accident, except those of others ...
