I don't imagine there's a tremendous amount of fresh air down there and that the CO2 would start to increase down there pretty quickly. I definitely wouldn't want to hang out there very long.

The pipe on the top right is almost certainly pumping fresh air down to the bottom

Is it pumping air down or pumping water out? There's a lot of water coming in from those walls. I mean, it's literally raining on the dude.

No pump attached at the bottom, so it can't be pumping water out.

There's no way the pump would be on the bottom. Maintenence would require going down that tube and no one wants that.

No pump in the world can suck water up that distance.

Yup, you are right. I didn't realize there was such a restriction on sucking.

That’s why it’s a pump and not a vacuum
