This video is funny as hell. Don't play it with the kids around.

Oh, the horrible life of an ichthyologist.... :-D

Definitely funny!

Reminds of a time diving up here in Wisconsin. A friend of mine was using an air-integrated computer back then...before we started switching to hogarthian and all that good stuff. The computer toasted, so he couldn't dive. He was free diving, and we were starting in on a dive. He grabbed my friends octo and was swimming along. We hit a thermocline at 25' and he looked like a plucked chicken...hehehe.

What a hoot! Sounds like what you would hear if there was a mic in my regulator during a January dive at Gilboa. BRRRRRRRR

Hey now, for some of us up here in Wisconsin this is our SOP for most of our wreck dives every weekend on Lake michigan! Lot's of coloful and interesting language is spoken during that initial plunge into the water. As my friend Jim says; "once your face goes numb and the ice cream headache starts to subside, everything is just great!" As much as I've tried, I've never found any warmer water below 150 ft. other than 39 degrees. Most times we don't get feeling back in our fingers until we reach our 30 ft. deco stop...and that's WITH dry gloves. It was a funny video though.
