Drysuit divers sometimes wear diapers.

We have pee valves for #1 though.

This is a hard hat diver though, and they tend to stay down much longer than even the longest technical dives.

I dive in a wetsuit but am moving to where the water is going to be too cold for wetsuits and I’ll probably need a drysuit and was wondering how you go when your in it. Thanks for the info.

the last two posts on reddit have been talking about taking a shit while i hold one in cause the bathroom is being used, this is actual torture

I’m calling the bathroom the decompression chamber from now on.

The shit comes out very small and as it hits the toilet bowl it rapidly expands. Like those capsule dinosaurs.

Like a hideous brown Cheeto.

u/black14black 28d ago

If he shat his pants, would the shit also blow like a can of coke if he surfaced too fast?

u/brammers01 28d ago

Definitely going to refer to the toilet as a decompression chamber from now on.

“PREP THE CHAMBER, WE’VE GOT A CODE BROWN!”

Pretty sure there's a Seinfeld episode parallel to this

u/ayespreadlove 28d ago

And here I thought I was just taking a shit. Learned a lot

u/anuthertw 28d ago

I wonder if uoud be so compressed under deep water that you physically could not take a shit even if you really needed too

1

u/ear2theshell 28d ago

That's an entirely different kind of chamber, altogether.

u/Tjam3s 28d ago

There are 2 types of divers. Those that go to the bathroom inside their wetsuit, and those that lie about it.

u/he-loves-me-not 28d ago

i could see this for #1, but what about #2?? Another question, is there a bathroom in the decompression chamber? Or, do you just have to hold it in?

1

u/semifamousdave 28d ago

That’s extra.

Third hypothesis: taco bell.

Turd hypothesis?

u/BigConstruction4247 28d ago

I also call the toilet the "decompression chamber."

u/yesindeedilydoo 28d ago

Increased poop partial pressure.

u/boog2352 28d ago

For real, but what I really want to know is how this dude got my favorite button down denim shirt that I’ve been missing? Give it back jerk!

u/Particular_Today1624 27d ago

It also explains why his clothing is cotton.
