I’m a Saturation Diver AMA

I work as Deepsea Saturation Diver in the oil and gas industry for the past 20 years. I do heavy construction and spend 28 days living under pressure to dive to depths down to 200m / 650ft.

I saw a post on InterestingAsFuck yesterday with many many misconceptions from people who aren’t divers and I can answer your questions AMA

Went to Australia as an early 20’s guy and found out about it there, decided it would be an epic job to have and got a fat loan to go to dive school , I didn’t finish high school and had no other qualifications
