I am in by myself and wearing a mask....I am going to have to chack that out!

Yeah ask them if you can take your mask off and talk to yourself to check it out. It makes a weird sound due to the compressed air causing friction across your vocal cords.

Well no one wants to see a video of me with my pants around my knees bent over a table screaming for mercy all the time knowing that the doctor was trained by Hitlers henchmen.


ROFL! That was funny! You would be 100% correct in that statement.
 
You sure they are going to make you wear a mask?

I work part time at the Duke Hyperbaric Chamber part time and my understanding is the mono-place chambers they pump 100% O2 into them? And yes the 100% cotton clothing is for safety purposes.

Our chambers are large enough were the patients can either be in a recliner or stretcher (depending on what is wrong) and wear head tents that are filled with 100% O2. Us tenders just breath the air that is pumped in. At the end of the treatment we go onto face masks and breath 100%O2 on the way up.
 
Even with chambers pressurized with air (o2 mask/hood), and especially with o2 environment chambers, they usually don't let you take anything metal (other than your fillings) inside.... risk of spark. So no glasses, watches, dive computers... they would have let me wear contacts though.
 
Some of these those are just really really nice. Others are freaking hysterical. I guess I am going to have to change my avatar every other day or so. Thanks again that was super nice and thoughtful.
