That depends on whose wetsuit you "soil"
B vitamins in higher doses can give you a jolt of fever and flu-like symptoms, and even make your skin flush to cherry-red. It usually only lasts a few minutes, and is harmless afaik. If you take a higher dosage all the time, your body gets used to it, but if you double up, or are short on the B vitamins before taking, you'll have the same issues. Scared the hell out of me the first time it happened. I can't imagine the fun I would have had discovering this inside an underwater cave....
Barfing on rebreathers is interesting. You have to bail out first. Doing so while fighting nausea is not a lot of fun.

Thats not gross. Gross is a fart with a lump in it, now that's gross. (See, soiling your wet suit posts for cross reference)

Anybody can be calm and centered with a few candles, some incense, quiet peaceful surroundings...the trick in life is to clear your head and find that calm spot in a *poo*storm...to filter out distractions in a beehive world and focus on simple, true things. - Bob Bates

This past Jan. while diving Peacock in the afternoon after one of those awesome tuna subs from the Lauraville store it was interesting.
I started the dive feeling great and when we reached about 200' from Olsen I felt a little ill, being conservative I thought it would be wise to go on to Olsen and hang out a bit or turn and exit.
As I was contemplating a group of divers entered from Olsen so I just thumbed and turned. MISTAKE!
I grew very ill just before Pot Hole and thought well it is vomit or vomit, so as already shared I let it roll.
It was very unpleasant and I always get chunks in my nasal passages thus requiring the under water nose blow!
With in 200' I was feeling better and at the exit I was good!
LESSON TO LEARN; Eat only dive safe foods and very small amounts!
It does add stress to a dive and since I have learned to call a dive if I feel bad!
It is not worth the risk to you or your team.

This thread is almost as funny as the pee valve thread from a few years ago. This is the most I have laughed since I broke my ribs and missed my cave diving vacation.
Bullfrog, just think I was using your regs, while you where watching the snow. I didnt heave though
