Swim to the underwater room (aka the Bubble Room)

For more information please visit http://subaqua.alldaydrive.com

Jordan (co-inventor) is camera man for this shot. The ring is made out of super heavy duty galvanized steel pipe that has been cut and welded into an octagon. Gussets where also welded into the inside corners for re-enforcement. Air is regularly re-freshed with a SCUBA tank.

Even though the Bubble Room is a DIY project it has taken years of improvements and some pretty heavy brainstorming sessions with some very bright and qualified people, to get it to where it is today. Not only is it pretty dangerous if you aren't acutely aware of the laundry list of risks involved, but the build in general is very heavy duty and well thought out. For example a bubble that size has a lifting force of approx 5,600 pounds! it's one thing when you underestimate a project and it goes wrong in your garage and nobody's lives are involved, it's completely another when the project puts your friend's and family's lives at stake 20 feet underwater. I know it's awesome and I don't blame anybody for wanting one of their very own, but please don't go out and kill yourself attempting to replicate a project with such huge forces and such high risk. If you feel the need for your own Bubble Room bad enough (why wouldn't you?) my brother and I can be commissioned to install a patented private model complete with fresh air pump, backup generator, detachable stainless steel ring, and a heavy duty, crystal-clear, collapsible, vinyl dome. One can be installed during the new construction of any private pool. For more information head over to our website and drop us a line!! subaqua.alldaydrive.com

This is a clip of the short journey from the shore to the bubble room. In this video is Jordan (my brother and co-creator of the bubble room), my dad (Bob), Danny (who's been down to the room many times) and a first timer! It's pretty cool to see people's first time reactions!

@freakqnc

well you're no fun, are you?

[freakqnc]

@slothscantswim Yeah imagine how happy would be the person getting there next who would be gasping for air like the person who filmed this... not a cool experience for them. Speaking of which with all the people taking air out and filling it with CO2 I wonder how many divers it can take before the underwater room becomes an underwater trap o_O a tad dangerous if a way to re-pump fresh air in is not added, just sayin'... have fun but be careful! ;)

[slothscantswim]

fucking smoke weed in it. i havent looked at something and thought "smoke in there" since way back in the day when it was still so novel... but man i shit you not thatd be a cool experience....

How does the room get more oxygen?

[NothingButJack]

@yokokitsune0800 Shave it for later

[Tucker29jmjp]

that is very cool, but once people go into there too much, it would fill with carbom dioxide, thus incapable to breathe air, right?
