The real problem is getting the ice cubes in.
 
a lil salt never hurt nobody, unless rubbed in a wound

At depth the beer or Coke & Rum bubbles will expand and go catastrophic on you.

I seen it.

Hmmmm, so we have been taught wrong all these years? The gases expand with increased depth instead of compressing? Dang, that empty water bottle must not have gotten the memo.
 
Ahhhhh! THAT camel pack. Someone else told me they had a camel pack. I said "Really?" They said they never had any problems with it. And there I was wondering why I couldn't light MY cig's underwater. Makes more sense now.

I have seen one on a manufacture's website (am trying to find again). They had a camelbak type bag that had a rubber flap at both ends with a metal grommet at each end. They simply put the bag onto the two sta bolts between their back and the plate.
 
Another solution that I read in other forums was capri sun in the foil packs. I guess I could also put my camelbak bladder in my MC pack and just route the hose up my side. Just another idea.

I think what he meant:
The bubbles seemed to compress when I did it, but you let out one he11 of a belch when you come up FROM depth.
