The first person to use an underwater diving contraption is generally considered to be Greek philosopher and engineer Archimedes, who designed a primitive diving bell around 250 BCE. However, the first recorded use of a diving bell for underwater exploration is attributed to Sir John Smyth in the late 16th century. His design allowed for extended underwater stays, paving the way for future advancements in diving technology.

How did a scuba diving start?

Scuba diving began in the early 20th century with the development of self-contained underwater breathing apparatus (SCUBA). The first successful use of such devices can be traced back to 1943 when Jacques Cousteau and Émile Gagnan created the Aqua-Lung, which allowed divers to explore underwater more freely. Prior to this, underwater exploration was limited to surface-supplied air systems and free diving. The invention of SCUBA revolutionized underwater exploration, leading to both recreational and scientific diving activities.

How much saturation diving course?

To become a saturation diver you must first qualify and work as an air diver. Once you have a set amount of logged dive hours, working in surface supplied equipment in open water, you can complete a training course to gain your saturation (also known as mixed gas or closed bell) diving certification. The Underwater Centre in Tasmania provides ADAS diving certifications in both air and saturation diving, and The Underwater Centre in Fort William provides HSE diving certifications in both air and saturation diving. Both ADAS and HSE certificatoins are internationally recognised, allowing you to work anywhere in the world.

What is the first sign that you are drowning?

Firstly, you're underwater, or your head is underwater. Then, you'll probably feel faint or dizzy, and difficulty to move. That's a result of the mammalian diving reflex. It basically puts the body into an energy saving mode, supplying energy only to the vital organs to save energy. If still underwater for a long period of time, it's likely that the drowner will black-out, and die.


Use the word contraption in a sentence?

A contraption is another word for a (contrived) device, so a sentence with that word could be, " In order to bend the wooden strips into the shape of the canoe we were building, I had to first steam them and then place them in a CONTRAPTION called a 'jig', which put force on the ends to bend them, while holding the center in a fixed position."
