It gets even more important if you're working with a Tri-mix or a closed or semi-closed system. leaks, explosive disassembly, AND potential contamination! Yay!

Yea I figured the threshold for error gets considerably smaller once you’re dealing with nitrox/trimix/anything else that’s not standard compressed gas. Thankfully I was just a divemaster that got to watch as my reg got worked on :)

Anything beyond nitrox is just indecipherable magic to me. Closed-loop systems seem simple in practice (a few one-way valves, some kind of CO2 scrubber, and O2/diluent tanks to add volume when needed), but the engineering of it is just beyond me.

I think I’ve shared a story in here before of a poor bastard who had multiple O2 sensor failures in his rebreather at about 100ft down and sailed off into the O2 exposure sunset, breathing the pure stuff at about 4atm. Dude survived because when he had the inevitable seizure, he clamped down on his reg instead of spitting it out. The pure O2 he was breathing at depth also crashed most of the nitrogen out of his system, so he didn’t even get any flavor of the bends iirc.

When my wife and I were first moving in we were using this old freight elevator in her building and she handed me her phone which I promptly dropped and it came so close to going down that way. Like millimeters away from going down.

No consequences for an airplane running into a cable?!

A wing hit no. Recall when a us military jet cut the cable on a 20 person cable car. I assume that cable was think af. Cable car fell and every one died sadly but the jet returned to base with minor damage.

That's a really common saying. Adam Savage was recently saying "buy the harbor freight/craigslist/big box store version first and if you use it twice a year buy the best version." It's just a "saying" though, he certainly hasn't followed his own advice about buying the best. Unless you're literally making money off your tools, you don't need "the best." When your job requires a tool, quick replacement probably matters more than having "the best." That's something I learned from boat-guys: if the only good local shop sells Yamaha, you probably don't want a Mercury. Is the $30 tool available in 2 days from Amazon good enough or do you have to use the $80 version that ships from Japan?

I was always told the opposite. Buy the cheap stuff, but relace anything you break with a nicer version so you eventually end up with a box full of cheap stuff that you never use and nice durable versions of all the stuff you use daily.

Does oxygen not fizz off when you decompress? Is it just so reactive that it ends up bound to you as soon as it dissolves?
