  • Inside the Loge the pressure is like outside. So what about the deco-stops?

  • @LordHassi It's only 30 feet down. You don't need to do safety stops unless it's deeper.

  • Inside these Loge you got the pressure from outside, so what about the deco-stops?

  • SuriPlayah: At most you'd probably just stay there a day. So you don't need tons of clothes. They give you these bins to hold your personal belongings dry on the way down.

  • how do you take your clothes to the hotel without making it wet?

  • When they open that door on the floor, why doesn't the water go in the hotel?

  • @felipenoronha2 think of the lodge like a glass you hold under water in the sink. You take an empty glass, flip it upside down and put it down under water. you can see the air up inside the glass still. If you were tiny, you could swim down and up in to the glass, right? Same idea. When you are down in the lodge, you are compressed at that depth. In a submarine, you are at surface pressure, so it must be sealed (or everyone dies - ala beginning of The Abyss movie)

  • Just looked on the lodge website and it is about $500/person/night

  • So..question..how do keep some clothing dry? that means when you leave you be driving home in wet clothing..unless you have water poof suitcase

  • Take an empty glass, turn it upside down and put it under water. You can see how the air compresses, but you can still access it under water. The same principle applies here. You can still swim in under as it is air tight. You are only down like 20 or 30 feet so you will be at that pressure the entire time. Unlike a submarine which is at surface pressure the whole time as it is completely air tight.

    

  • how do you enter the hotel when its underwater... :/

  • @IchirukiSasusaku You scuba-dive to the bottom.

  • Awesome! A step back in time.

  • RAPTURE

  • cool concept but really not the best spot for the hotel, this used to be a lab right, from the look of this clip the view of the fish and hotel just plain unattractive to me.

  • Being that the pressure inside the capsules is the same as outside, you are at that constant pressure. As you go down, you equalize and are comfortable once down there. On your way up you'll have to go through the same drill. People in a submarine never experience this as the pressure in the sub is the same as the surface and the submarine hull is strong and is able to withstand the immense pressure. Not the same as down in Jules Undersea lodge (the same idea as out of "The Abyss" movie)

  • how do you get down there?

  • EW  the water looks like shit.

  • @sourdoughress

    thats how water always looks

  • No I live by the ocean

  • how do the maids change the sheets? and is there room service?

  • it looks nasty,

    i imagined something much better for an underwater hotel...

  • you do have oxygen

  • Nothing's changed!! Thanks for posting this!

  • It is still there, if you're curious.

  • Yeah I actually looked it up before I posted this. Damn, i'm gettin old.

  • doesent it hurt your ears?

  • What do you mean?

  • @aaronmgray

    When you dive down the 25 feet, do you ears hurt from the pressure?

  • It was so so long ago, I have no idea. If I had to try to guess, I would say it was $250/night, but I could be wrong.

  • @aaronmgray $250/night? Impossible, that's how much your average Embassy Suites hotel goes for.

  • so how much did u pay?

  • id doesent ''paysing to mee'' get yourself a better internettconnection. jurkoff

  • Uhhhh.... Maybe you should get a better internet connection so your buffer doesn't run out.
