Thx
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 you can use a balloon right?
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
well this is a recommendation video that is actually useful
Very true
painIS Soldier depends if you have the money to go scuba diving. its not cheap for the average person
poot poot frend

Im the 600th like
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. 🙂
I'm sorry to hear about your friend.
R.I.P

Now i don't want scuba .. they said only do to not die like this it breathing normal but I don't think it's only that....
Rip 🙏
I’m uncertified as a scuba diver and I recently bought a mini tank and this video might have just saved my life. So I thank you.
How deep have you gone ?
@@angelo7045 it didn’t work, but I just hold my breath and I’ve gone down to 10 ft
@@Cheese_Official1 the tank didn’t work 🤨 oh that’s lame I lost my

@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
@@angelo7045 it leaked so I couldn’t use it but I am like an fish and can hold my breath a while so I’m good
I don’t want to go scuba diving anymore...
I’ve been diving for years, it’s really simple to avoid this from happening. Just breathe.
There is no need to feel afraid as lonag as you have taken proper course and you know how to to scuba dive safely.
Lol same 😂😂
@@chris6200 You also have to control your ascent. The air is in your blood.
If I can’t scuba then what’s this all been about? What am I working towards?
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.
Happy to help~
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.
just call dr.murphy
Went scuba diving in Mexico and they never told us about this, thank god I never held my breath while going up.
Kaleb M scooba doo lol
WTF. It's literally rule 1. "Breath continuously and never hold your breath"
Mark O'Leary I mean it's Mexico so kinda sketchy anyways lol
Kaleb M profile pic matches the comment perfectly
It’s the first thing you learn when getting your OW certificate.. 🤦🏼♀️ Definitely shouldn’t have been allowed to dive without certification!
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.
I really should be studying. Idk how I got here
You are not the only one, I've got test tomorrow :D
Same...
Sucks to be you guys, I have 2 days ‘til summer.
Im gonna stay home from school tomorrow
Leo Vu for mine, already summer 2 months ago,almost school in june.
😄
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!
thesoulkeeper31 that is exactly why I don’t scuba dive - you have no backup if things go wrong
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.
thesoulkeeper31 something so simply yet so deadly
My certified friend told me be careful about free diving...now I realised he was right. Scuba made him careful
Basically don’t be stupid and get trained before diving. Always good to know.
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!!!
its like a gun. wont be printed on the device because you are supposed to have common knowledge before handling
Just breathe normally while ascending. As long as your trachea is open air has a way to escape.
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.
Well it's already taught during scuba diving classes. Why would would a cylinder company teach it? Cylinders are used for many different reasons.
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.
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.
Thank you, I'm glad you like it :)
This was very helpful. I only did scuba diving once and this was never taught and it is a scary fact.
Thank you Christian for this video. Great idea to help beginners understand why you never hold your breath when scuba diving.
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.
skyym3 wait, so if I held my breath while ascending (in a 12 ft pool) my lungs could rupture??
JonesiBoy Beastmode no, expect if you take more air underwater
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
from what depts is holding your breath dangerous? i mean if you forgot this in shallow 6 ft of waters, can it still be dangerous?
I FINALLY UNDERSTOOD IT! YOU OOK LIKE GATIS KANDIS!!
Thanks
This comment😂😂😂
That's what I thought😂
He said thanks😂😂😂
Kinda talks the same too
WOW this was really useful , thanks for the info
Great vid. Not stretched to 10 minutes but still explained well. Sad that some people are still left confused
Doing a 10 min video just to get more ad money is pointless
I dunno how this is in my recommendations I never even once though about this but pretty interesting
I remember when I got PADI certified, One of the first things they told us was to never ever ever ever ever hold your breath
Sean Kratovil-Lavelle same. Its one of the core rules.
Sean Kratovil-Lavelle that’s the first rule in diving I’m 12 and I did my PADI certification too
FINALLY A TUTORIAL IVE BEEN WAITING FOR SO LONG!!!!!!
omg you probably saved many ppls lungs with this video thank you!
Thanks mate! You too have a nice day!
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.
I am not a diver but this video is opened my eyes. Didn't think about that before Thanks sir.
This is a fantastic way of explaining this issue, thank you for a brilliant example on this.
This is one of the first things I ever learned in my scuba class. And it’s one of the most important things to remember while diving
Holy shit! I've always held my breath when swimming up
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.
@@rogue_spirit ok, thanks! I haven't really seen any videos before, soooo...
@@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.
@@rogue_spirit very good explanation !
@@buddhismful Appreciate your time reading it :)
This is the type of educational videos TH-cam should recommend.. Short and has great representation of facts.. 👍👍💯
Yes I did learn something. I’ve free dived 20ft in a diving pool and held my breath the whole time with exhaling. Thanks for the tip
But... my lungs are red.. so this isn't an accurate experiment
WOOOOOOSH
Young Thinker - iuvenis animo r/whoosh
your lungs arent made of plastic aswell
Young Thinker - iuvenis animo r/woosh
You are legend
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.
Wow thanks for this info, never know when I’ll need this knowledge
I'm not sure what prompted youtube to show me this but it's well needed.
Very helpful video, thanks you for a knowledge
I never felt diving so dangerous
But u can dive on without problem by putting on the kurama's cloak, Naruto
you're aware that im still a Genin right ?
@@danvrok4613 but ya can't die so easily
Kurama will come up
It is not if you obey the rules. Otherewise it is, very simple.
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!
It is different at 30’ down free diving , is great! Back when I was younger I did this a lot in Hawaii !
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?
i got gills im not worried...lol
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
Best recommended video yet!
The most important thing about scuba diving.. ALWAYS BREATHE! (PADI open water certified)
Good to know maybe this saved a lung of mine
Casper You wouldn’t lose a lung. That would be like losing a finger after getting a splinter
Lung doesn't heal like a splinter on your finger :D
Casper It will heal, just not the same way. I’ve ruptured a lung before, as long as you have another lung to rely on the other one will heal
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!
This is a really good piece of fact that most beginners will most likely not know.
I randomly come in to this video but I learn really new stuff from here thx!
Thank you for this the diving thing ur using (skorkel) I was thinking of buying it and I now know how to be safe 😁
This is a different product. This is the Spare air
Very interesting
Absolutely informative, yet simple enough for my simple brain to understand. Great stuff!!!
First time in my whole TH-cam life i got something useful in recommendation 😊
Lesson here is to not scuba dive with an oxygen source and holding your breath
Did he say Kristen Ritter lmao? And also why is this in my recommended? Still it was a good video 👌👍
He's got her sharp button nose and big eyes
Pussy Nutella "Did he say Kristen Ritter lmao?"
No, he said "Christian Wedoy" with a Norwegian accent.
felynecomrade "He's got her sharp button nose and big eyes"
That would be "Krysten Ritter," not "Kristen Ritter."
@@seikibrian8641 I don't get the difference
Oh that was 2 years ago, my bad
@@jairoja The difference is that one is spelled correctly and the other isn't. When referring to people, spelling their name right is important.
Thank you for this. I had no idea about that but dang, when I find myself in water I will remember this.
Good info. I never know about this until I watched this video.
The lungs be like: Don't let me hanging give me some air
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. :)
wow thank you so much i wanted to get into scuba but i did not know about this thank you for letting me know that can really save lives
Its the Boyle's - Mariotte law.
This was a very simple and short explanation - the best kind. Thank you!
Now i dont wana swim anymore
This was about deep diving. You can still swim, just don’t deep dive if your scared.
Julian Freediving does not pop your lungs but SCUBA can if you hold your breath while ascending. Make sure you go with a buddy though.
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.)
Julian Kunde "Now i dont wana swim anymore"
"Swimming" is fine. Just don't attempt scuba diving without proper training under a qualified instructor.

@@tylerdeth7757 lead weights.... scuba gear.... seasoned divers....plus....not that deep waters
Thanks for the advice bro👍
This one is a whole new knowledge for my brain. Thank you
I like to swim but this is one of many reasons why I won't scuba dive.
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
Diving is easier than swimming lol, literally all you have to do is breath...ITS AS EASY AS THAT!
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
Toxicating Bonnie reading this comment gave me cancer
Toxicating Bonnie Were you intoxicated when you typed your comment? You seriously need to read it and then edit it!
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)
around 5-6 minutes
Excellent demonstration, sir.
An excellent demonstration of "balls law"
Isn’t it a bit different compression levels since what you put in the bag is Co2 but what’s in our lungs is oxygen
Air only has 20% oxygen, so it does not make much difference
Zac Campbell It’s not going to make a big difference. It still does the same thing because it’s a gas
What scuba tank setup is that?
Zac Merriman the small tank hes breathing? its called SpareAir.
Your video was worth a thousand words.
I never knew or thought of this despite being a science student.
Everyone should know about this.
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
yep
DUDE YOUR IN 🇳🇴AND I KNOW NEWTON
Great
Learned something new. Thanks
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.
I Don't Want To Play "Who Hold His Breath For A Long Time Will Win" Anymore.."

Oh..
Nvm Im Scared To Do It
@@vibecat3307 its only under water because of the pressure difference
0:48
Constant mass, not volume. The volume changes with the pressure.
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.
Shat ap
Was looking for this comment
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.
Great demonstration
Thanks you save my life brother
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???
Jack Sparow offcourse
Yes
pickre Mathew lol
Just like if your not underwater, you pass out... which is worse if you are underwater... by a lot.
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.
I always breathe out whenever I go up I thought it was instinct
Thanks for this helpful how to guide
Suddenly this question came in my mind and you just solve it thankx
ITS GATIS KANDIS
IT IS? IM WONDERING WHY THEY LOOKED SIMILAR
smallblue08 It ain't him
God dammit u made my day😂
Are you well?
In case you want to follow me. This is what i look like from behind
I knew this because i watched 47 meters down 😊
WeirdName 47 meters down is far for the truth and very unrealistic regards to scuba diving..
Never thought about this, great point
Dude this is awesome.... I never knew that stuff. Thanks for giving me life facts!☺
Would it hurt before it ruptured? Or would it just explode without any forewarning?
Evan Woods you feel it, like when you push your belly out but in your lungs. If you take a deep breath until your lungs are full, you can kind of get a feel of what it’s like, but imagine it keeps going until you rupture a lung.
Evan Woods watch the whole video
B R I still missed it. You got a time stamp?
Evan Woods 0:01
Im confused.... Which way is up when you go down at the pool? Its trippy. XD
Up is up. Down is down. What's so hard to understand?
but when upside down is down up or up side?
No. Up is up and down is down.
Hopefully you're trolling
Who Dat he's saying that regardless of the orientation, the surface of the pool is up and the bottom is down
Thank you for the knowledge
So divers always keep breathing
bryce yes when coming back up or just exhale.
What happens if u exhaled your lung capacity. Can you breath in again or you must stop to take the breath then exhale again to ascend?
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 I think there is a formula explaining this. You can keep going up just have to do it at 1 foot per second.
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 listen too much music if I know this background song

Wonderful job. Very useful video!
Im doing my open water course and this thing had me worried. Thanks for explaing it mate.
Does this happen when you don’t have a snorkel or tank?
The air will expand and contract but its not dangerous for your lungs when you breathe in at the surface
Christian Wedoy ok thanks this freaked me out a little.😋
Venus Earth Somehow when you are under water your lungs can take in twice as much air as on the surface. So if you would somehow breath underwater the air till your maximum in and dive up again, your lungs would get ruptured, because at the surface they can't take that much air again.
It's all about the density of the air. 10m underwater the air your breathing is twice as dense. It gets less dense as your depth rises and expands. So basically at 10m the volume is the same but the density has increased
