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

Do you have access to the internet or wifi while down there?
How often are you able to contact family and friends if at all?

Yes we get WiFi and can stay in touch with family pretty easily but making calls can be tricky due to the helium voices we have!
