There’s something amazing, yet terrifyingly creepy about this fantastic 1882 deep sea diving suit. It is currently on display in the Musee de la Marine in Paris.

    This is a very nice piece of equipment, and was made perfectly for the job it had, even back then. One of the glass circles even unscrewed to get you used to the pressure.
