I've just learned that in 18th and 19th century, tobacco smoke enema (blowing tobacco smoke into the rectum) was used for resuscitating victims of near drowning: Tobacco smoke enema - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Seing that, I suggest AIDA and other training entities modify their procedure for rescuing a freediver after a blackout. Instead of the Tap-Talk-Blow (TTB) they should teach Tap-Talk-Blow-Tobacco-Smoke-up-the-Arse (TTBTSA).

Since smoke enema devices may be difficult to purchase these days, I suggest using water pipes instead - finally, divers in Egypt are quite familiar with them. They just need to learn using them the other way.
 
You wish! ;)

But I'm not sure what you want... To do the static... or to be the safety??? ;)
 
I will just collect the rectum smoke statistics and put them up on the ranking at Apnea.cz
 
Well, fluid goggles and and giant nose clips already ruined any credibility we had...
 
Yes agree, maybe we should also all ascent ass-first Trux so that we're ready for the enema in case of a BO. As Jouskari said, we don't have any cred left anyway. We might as well.
