Your tank is way to high up, the reg can needs to be between your shoulder blades.

@Gilldiver According to Tillman's "Underwater Education" (1962): "When using a double hose regulator the height of the tank and regulator must be above the critical free flow location when you are vertical and looking up." While I realize you can fine tune the regulator's performance by the height, if the tank was any lower the J valve function couldn't have been demonstrated without an extender. Ultimately regulators of this era are never going to perform as well as a Scubapro MK25/S600 anyhow.

You are so sensual underwater, would love to see more of you ;)

You should never dive alone, even in swimming pool with a cameraman.

I have a double hose reg. I found from actual exp. that if you sling the tank low on your back you breath better. Swimming vertical is the same. Never read Tillman's but I have experimented in the ocean. Also if u have to swim face down and horizontal, I found that once in a while if you look over your right shoulder you get a nice breath of air. Ya gotta stay calm to use these regs.

Watching this gives me a lot more respect for Lloyd Bridges. And for everyone else who used this type of gear back in the day.
