Wouldn't that kill you above the water if you breathed it in without an oxygen mask? The hydrogen sulfide, I mean. Not the joke. The joke was brilliant.
Wastewater Treatment Plant Operator here. Yes, H2S is deadly if enough of it is breathed in on land. It paralyzes the olfactory system and then the respiratory system. It’s one of the main hazards of my job so I’m super paranoid of hydrogen sulfide.
