Three panel comic.

Panel 1: a guy wearing swim trunks and a snorkeling mask walks confidently into the ocean on a public beach surrounded by some scattered onlookers. He is carrying an electric lantern and his snorkeling tube is very tall, extending up and out of the frame.

Panel 2: he continues forward into the water, nearly fully submerged with only the top of his head above water. The snorkel is still too tall to be seen completely in frame. The onlookers watch blankly as he disappears under the surface.

Panel 3: the guy is walking casually at the abyssal floor of the ocean, where no light penetrates. His electric lantern illuminates his immediate vicinity. He is surrounded by a collection of weird deep sea creatures, including a deep sea isopod, vampire squid, chimaera, and barrel eye fish. Can you name all the creatures in frame?

    How? Surely you would find out almost immediately that you can’t inhale against the water pressure and then just surface. It’s not like you are getting to 15m before you struggle, IIRC for most people you will be struggling or completely unable to inhale by just 1m. Even with training you are at best adding a few cm.
