  • According to Rosemary Lennon's biography of Letterman, a writer who tested the suit (without oxygen) during rehearsal passed out.

  • Good thing Dave had that oxygen source at the ready with all that carbon dioxide. Classic Dave from the good old 80s.

  • when dave was funny

  • Alka-Seltzer the rescue! Um, wait a minute...

  • @BeAStarEnt

    Yeah. All those tablets fizzing produces quite a bit of carbon dioxide.

  • lol, they definitely didnt want all that CO2 to get to him so they yanked him out quickly

  • How much time?

    45 seconds.

    How much time?

    30 seconds.

    He obviously didn't want to be in that tank for very long.

  • @oOoACFREEMANoOo Just CO2. Actually, this stunt raised the temperature of the Earth by 0.2 degrees though.
