Great video as always James! Just a note, we won’t ever practically run out of helium, there are abundance quantities on earth actually, it’s just that it’s very hard to recover it economically so prices will likely remain high until we can cheaply source it from space later this century (possibly).

I'm merely an advanced open water PADI diver but you asked for nitro narc stories so... On my deepest dive, 130 ft, off the north coast of St. Croix, we were on a ledge of the reef drop-off. I was extremely euphoric and I had this Billy Idol song running through my head because it had been on the radio right before our dive. The instructor showed how colors other than blue were possible at that depth with a flashlight. Then he had us do some basic arithmetic on a chalkboard and I was less than precise. Only 13 minutes of bottom time if I recall, but it was super fun and I'm glad I was under the guidance of a professional. One day I'd like to get into technical diving.

That's an easy comparison. A rebreather, plus training, is between 6 and 10k $. Maintenance on a rebreather isn't too bad. Some new O2 sensors every year or two for $200-300 and a few bucks of Sofnolime per dive. The helium price depends on your location, but maybe $200 per twinset? I'd save up for a rebreather myself.
@scmsean2 жыл бұрын
@S M a rebreather will cost about 12K. Trimix will cost about 200 to fill doubles. So 60 fills comes out to 12k. Training for doubles or rebreather is about the same.

You also have to factor in time, 60 meter on twinset you probably do 20 minutes plus you use decompression gasses as well, on ccr you can do same dive and do 60 minutes at that depth.
@louwgreeff65912 жыл бұрын
As always great content. Its tragic that the costs of helium is so high. Not only do heluim allow for deeper depths safeley, but it could also considerably prolong your bottom time if you would normally dive at air depths, provided you dishing out the exstra costs. I predict rebreathers are going to be all over the show in the years to come due to the rising costs of heluim. As a entry level tech diver i would love to progress down the trimix pathway on open circuit but the more and more people i speak to advises to stop wasting money and go rebreather a.s.a.p. granted the theory remains the same, but on a fraction of the costs compared to all the wasted heluim on open circuit. Bottom line if you going to partake in diving that absolutely requires the use of trimix, a rebreather, even a rental unit will work out cheaper compared to the costs of open circuit on trimix and it comes with way more benifits. The future of open circuit trimix diving looks dim
@Yggdrasil422 жыл бұрын
Yeah, I just got cave trained in Mexico and never saw that many rebreather before. They're changing the game there. Longer dives allow exploring deeper into caves safely. Reduced decompression times improve comfort. No bubbles reduces damage to caves or reduces percolation when exploring brand new sections. Units like the KISS Sidewinder which were the most popular there are so simple to use and check that they're far less risky than older models. The Sidewinder's profile is barely larger than a sidemount diver so they can get into passages that back mount rebreathers can't get into. They mentioned they saw a big uptake in rebreather training in recent years.
@MAGAisacult2 жыл бұрын
In the 1980's, before the term "techical sport diving" even existed, cave divers were using tri-mix to enable deep cave exploration. We were unable to get Medical Oxygen for deco bottles, so we'd use cascade systems to download o2 to scuba tanks from welding bottles! Helium was handled the same way, and it took a lot of trial and error to get the correct mixture checked with an o2 analyzer.

My usual reaction to being narced is paranoia…specifically paranoia about suddenly discovering that I am in a lot of water. I know it’s happening because I look out at a beautiful underwater vista and think. “That water is really pretty…oh, that’s a lot of water, oh dear there’s more of that stuff on top of me, why am I under so much water?! This seems really dangerous.” These thoughts are so out of left field that every time it has happened, I make a deal with myself - “let’s just go up 10 feet where there’s less water and see if it’s narcosis” and though I’m still under lots of water, the feeling is gone pretty much instantly, so it definitely is. It’s happened to me at different depths, all of which I’ve exceeded on other dives with no narcosis and has happened to me in familiar locations as well. It’s an aspect of diving that I occasionally worry about, just because me and my usual buddy’s judgment are things I rely on, since we do a lot of shore diving and un-guided boat diving where the likelihood of us both getting narced is not that improbable. Given that I’ve been narced at like 75 feet (though my deepest is more like 95), I’m not even sure I’d want to go much deeper on air or nitrox…which does make the training and cost barrier to entry for trimix seem even more unfortunate. I’m even questioning some of the 95-100 dives I had been thinking about just because I can sort of picture how narcosis-based poor judgement could spiral into problems. For example, my buddy and I have shore dove the Harbor in Kona multiple times with a single tank, with the bottom at 95, but though it’s not an overhead environment, it’s at the entrance to the small boat harbor so you can’t surface directly without danger from boats and it’s sort of a long swim into the channel from where you drop, which is a bit of a hike over lava rocks to get to from the road. It’s also an area frequented by tiger sharks. We want to take two nitrox tanks each on sidemount and go look for Shawn the sheep that we’ve heard like the base of a huge buoy mooring there, but would probably take more time than an aluminum 80 at 95 feet after a long underwater swim can provide. When we were swimming out and back on a single tank without a task-loading mission like looking for and trying to photography microscopic nudis, it seemed reasonably safe, but I worry about getting narced and getting too low on air to make it back out of the channel before needing to surface. I wonder if I can rely on my normal narcosis paranoia to keep me from overstaying. For those depths that are below the traditional trimix zone and in what is considered traditional recreational limits, how do you decide whether the risk of narcosis is too great?

James, why don’t you mention CO2 as a major cause for narcosis? Because it’s not so much nitrogen as everyone is told to think. While at depth, say 6 atm, as long as you breath slow and deep it is possible not to suffer from narcosis as long as you don’t get a build up of CO2 in you body. Yes, everyone’s biology is different and different people suffer or don’t suffer narcosis at different depths. But between the surface and 190 ft it’s not a hard fast rule that all divers suffer narcosis.

Hey, haven't done much research regarding this but i am slowly learning regarding scuba diving. I apologize in advance if some of my terms are not proper. I have question regarding safety and for example when some of the incidents that happened while diving because the other guy didn't see or notice that his buddy is running out of air or has some sort of failure of his gear, so he either has to somehow get his attention in order for that other guy to share air with his buddy that needs help or that buddy need to do buoyant ascent. Why are divers not using full face masks with communication feature? I assume if that was the case we would have much less incidents. Maybe i am wrong and there are many bad side-effects or cons with taking that option. That's why i am kindly asking you or anyone else to answer me. Thank you again!
@Krahamus2 жыл бұрын
Yes you have hand signals if you out of air or running low, and why nobody using full face mask is because they are not cheap, plus you have to pay for mic extra most of times, also when it comes to emergency it will take time i assume to take mask off and give to someone else unless you have octo, and for ascent depends how bad is your situation, if you buddy gives you air, no need to ascent fast since you have air from him assuming he have spare/octo regulator, if not also is not emergency, it really depends what dept you are if you in not that big dept like 10 meters and only for 15 mins than you dont need to have ascent stop, and afraid of bends, but if its big emergency than going up fast only option.

Wel technicly helium can get narcotic. It just need alot more pressure. Below 150m diver stop using trimix and switch to full on heliox. No more nitrogen. But at like 300m helium gets a problem. You will feel it narcotic effect. And yes its insane deep. But saturation divers go there. They switch to hydrogen. Even lighter and less narcotic than helium. They went down to 540 or so meter in the water and 700m pressur room with it. It was basicly 5%oxygen and mix of hydrogen and helium for the rest. They never went beyond 700m.

Hi James. Good video. Question for you: Does the use of helium reduce the deco time? I know the more helium the lower the END but, being helium also a gas in our system, does it take the same time to offgas as nitrogen? I know it allows you to go deeper due to lower END but somehow I have in my mind that it takes the same or more time on the stops to release the gas. I hope one of these days I will have the time (and money) to go and do some training with you. Or maybe use you as our guide in the keys. Regards, MIguel

Your little bit of use during diving on an occasional trip is not really going to have any impact.
