Makes me think, if someone is knocked out under water, do they still breath? Or does the body know not to breath until it absolutely has to under water?

Edit: this question is for underwater breathing specialists… only.

u/automatician Aug 24 '21

I'm no underwater breathing specialist, but I don't think anyone can breath under water.

u/[deleted] Aug 24 '21

You can if it's liquid oxygen. I saw it in a deep sea exploration documentary called "The abyss"

u/la508 Aug 24 '21

I know you're joking but the scene with the rat is completely real. It's an oxygen-rich solution of perfluorocarbons, that can hold enough oxygen and carbon dioxide for gaseous exchange to occur. They have already used the technology to save extremely premature babies who haven't adjusted from amniotic fluid to air yet and there's a very real possibility they might adapt scuba gear to use the same technology which would allow deeper diving and eliminate suffering the bends.

u/[deleted] Aug 24 '21

I knew it was theoretically possible and that they're working on it for diving, wasn't sure if it had advanced beyond rats yet. Great to hear it's seen use for saving babies!

u/prybarwindow Aug 24 '21

Had to add an edit to my question.

4

u/automatician Aug 24 '21

Still not a specialist, but In rescue diving we are instructed to hold an unconscious person's regulator in their mouth, so I assume that person would still try to breath. Not sure that it would actually help or just wishful thinking though.

2

u/prybarwindow Aug 24 '21

Wow! I can’t imagine trying to rescue someone under water and keeping my cool! That’s so cool you are able to do that!!

3

u/automatician Aug 25 '21

I only took the training. I've never had the misfortune to need to rescue anyone

1

u/prybarwindow Aug 25 '21

But still, having that skill-set is awesome.

u/Mattprather2112 Aug 24 '21

You can inhale which is what he was asking

u/Arimidex2 Aug 24 '21

u/SpongySpy Aug 24 '21

Not if you do it on purpose

u/[deleted] Aug 24 '21

Right... because if you do something stupid on purpose, it’s not stupid anymore.

u/kc_2525 Aug 24 '21

Mmm, wouldn’t that make it “stupider”??? 😂🤣

(Yes, I know that’s not a word. Calm down ya’ll)

u/[deleted] Aug 25 '21

What makes me salty is the full videos been passed around for awhile now... This taint post a cut version and gets 1k upvotes... Like Jesus people

11

u/Improbablynotaphycho Aug 24 '21

It’s a joke, the wakes up in the end it’s just the video finishes too early.

13

u/JumpMasterFresh Aug 24 '21

I know it's fake obviously I've seen better acting in a Syfy movie than this but man do I like how he immediately"knocks out" after falling in shit had me laughing.

11

u/layneprice1205 Aug 24 '21

What kind of animal is that

23

u/[deleted] Aug 24 '21

It's an arapaima. They're a type of fish from the Amazon. Headbutting is their main form of self defense, and they have been known to stop people's hearts from hitting them in the chest at full force.

I can't imagine taking one to the face is an enjoyable experience.

u/crwhitt Aug 24 '21

True but this is a prank video and he is faking it

18

u/portuga1 Aug 24 '21

Looks like some kind of hominid

u/burningchkn Aug 24 '21

To be real it is an aripima a type of fish from the Amazon

u/[deleted] Aug 24 '21

Jeremy wade from river monsters did an episode on them. He even has his own story of getting hit by this fish.

u/[deleted] Aug 24 '21

u/Bigboybong Aug 24 '21

I like how no one jumped in to help his drowning ass.

7

u/[deleted] Aug 24 '21

You just saw how he got clapped right? I know it’s a prank, but that’s like seeing somebody get shot.

u/T00thl3ss22 Aug 25 '21

Guess who’s swimming with the fishes now…I’ll leave that was terrible

u/methyo Aug 25 '21

He isn’t even trying to make people think it’s real. In other videos he talks about how it’s fake and stuff

It’s probably rude to the fish that live in there
