Coolest Myth Ever! Deep Sea Diver CRUSHED

Mythbusters season 7 episode 19 “Dumpster Diving“ The myth is that if a deep sea divers air hose is cut, the pressure differences between the water and inside of the suit will cause the diver’s body to be crushed and squished up into his helmet. Something interesting: In an episode where they talked a little bit about the behind the scenes of this myth, they mention they had borrowed the helmet as part of an antique diving suit and they promised to return it in perfect condition. “The helmet was not in returnable condition“.
