Drowning is probably faster and less painful, though.

don’t you get the bends if you swim out of submarines at that depth? I guess that’s probably better than drowning…

10 -15 years ago? Damn, I’m old. What about the tower at Pearl Harbor, is that still there? I did 70′ holding my breath in that one.

The dive tower at the submarine school came down about 10-15 years ago – it was 150 feet.

There are private converted missle silos that are being used for recreational dive training that are probably deeper than this – but not as nice looking.

The U.S. Navy trains submarine sailors to escape from submarines in towers of water, that I believe, are about 118 feet deep.

I’m getting an earache just looking at it.

Aren’t some of those nuclear rod storage pools deeper than 100 feet?
