Watched the Mythbusters episode with the deep-sea-diver myth. i.e. if the air line suddenly fails, will the pressure of the deep sea stuff the diver up into his helmet with impressively fatal results?

 

To answer briefly - yes, yes it will. Just the scale test with one of the dolphin tanks and a gelatin-with-skeleton horrified Purrdence. And the full scale test 300ft down in the Monterey Canyon with a Meat-Man was even more delightfully ghastly. And then the helmet imploded. *thumbs up to the team for one of the best episodes EVAH*

Wow, I'm going to keep that video handy in the event I ever need to refute gamer logic with real world physics.

You're welcome. I wonder if they've ever done a "falling down side of building, grab flagpole" with subsequent coming off of arms?

Sorry I couldn't find more propaganda* from the Axiz powers. If anyone can discover the magic search terms that will help find 'em, post 'em or post links here. THX!
