Awesome Tips This Exolung promises 'unlimited' air supply underwater
The Exolung is aiming for the sweet spot between scuba and snorkeling by using the power of kicking legs to pull a steady supply of air down from the surface.

Deals for Days. Big home savings are happening now.
next step making a device that acts as artificial gills that take oxygen from the water and make it breathable for an actual unlimited air underwater. like that special tank from star wars the clone wars
Where can we buy or to order that kind of snorkel
gas mask but with a really long hose would work too
I think it's a great idea, and it will have a place for those who love the sea
It looks problematic for several reasons.
I see a whole lot of really stupid comments with people trying to feel smart by nitpicking this thing but I have yet to see anyone question as to what would happen if water somehow got on the inside of the diaphragm or another part of the diaphragm out right failed or even if one of the straps came loose and you could no longer pump the diaphragm? Could you quickly swim to the surface with no issues?
Just a warning the difference in air pressure between the breath you took at for example 5m deep vs the pressure of the air at the surface will be enough to burst your lungs.
Where can i buy this ? its looks pretty comfy.
This is more of a toy for using in pools and for snorkeling shallow reefs. You couldn't actually dive with this.
It doesn't solve the problem of air toxicity and DCS. If it's recycling oxygen it needs to have CO2 scrubbers or the user will black out. It also requires constant finning/propulsion, which brings additional problems in overhead environments. People have planned dives in excess of several hours on closed circuit systems.
I’ve been tricked into watching a an ad four an overly complex elongated snorkel
why do you need the exolung to begin with? you could just breathe straight from the hose
So basically when you get tired you drown….
If you had made one for a video would it have violated some patent law? I'm not saying it's a good idea, but would it have been illegal?
This is the dumbest looking contraption I think I've ever seen
Wrong dive kick.
A garden hose is a really long snorkle.
Well, this seems like an extremely good way to die
Please Advise me when EXOLUNG is available for purchase 🌟🌟🌟🌟
Would be better to have a compressor
I’m making one of these with tubes and a floaty and j don’t need to kick or anything with the current design
Nah this is stupid
So far proven not possible!
"A preliminary education course is not required". 🤨
Mh… maybe because traumatic gas embolism went out of style? 🤔
But you have to swim with frog kicks, right?
Really looking forward to trying one of these. I have reached out to the company over the past two years to get an ETA on its sale. They haven’t responded at all. ☹️ I’m starting to think it will never come to market.
Great concept, but I'm sincerely hoping this NEVER goes on sale
Imagine your enemy just blocks the hole where you get oxygen from at the top
So bad. Surface supplied diving would be better, even a hookah
I think yas need to find a element that can extract oxygen straight out ocean for breathing
cool for shallow water with no obstacles. Could be cool for getting down a little bit deeper near coral reefs. But thats about it.
Good video 👍
I'm disappointed in my expectation
Nope breathing requires kicking legs oh no hot a cramp
Scam
So, limited to 5m dives? That's not much. Black Rock near Ka'anapaali on Maui has most of the interesting stuff at twice that depth.
The manual pumping system has to change. Maybe use the wave action ( its energy) and add solar cells. Do not rely on one source of power. Getting stuck. Unable to move for 3 min. Death.
So it’s a fancy pipe?
They already make rebreathers for technical diving which recycle Ur breath so U can dive for hours on end
What a load of crappola ..problem number 1 :pressure loss at 5 m .. problem 2 : exerting leg muscles problem 3: pressure regulating
Is it for sale
Can you simulate something like fish like they breathe now that will be more scientific than that this is more basic
I like it. I would by it. Please link it here
Put a pump handle on the rebreather with a a small air tank and pump air into the tank.
What if it flips over
Imagine if the balloon on the surface was compromised
Very dangerous aparatus. Probably the reason why it didnt hit the market.
