    Just a boring point of interest but that stuff was actually real, the US navy used it to great effect but and its a big but, the divers died of secondary dorwning because the forget to take/clear (or couldn't) the stuff out of their lungs afterwards!!!

    Thats mad, cause I read that it would'nt work as our lungs are not powerful enough to inhale and exhale a liquid fast enough to get rid of waste gas!! (CO2 that is) where did you hear about it being used.

    In fact the camera man seemed to be focused on her for the entire movie, apart from that it was crap:)

    I was talking with a guy who used to be a sat diver, told me that when they were diving they were inventing the way commerical diving is now done, eg procedures, gases etc but he also told me that the US were doing some pretty crazy sh*t too and that there were trying out this brethable liquid gel stuff but to no avail!! crazy stuff
