Answer one question: Is 3 better than zero??.......
marchand:What else are we going to do with a spare air?
James Bond used a 'spare air' device once.... which film was that?
He was in the swimming pool... with sharks.... and it was disguised as a small pen. He must have gotten 15 minutes of air out of it.....
and the proper Spare Air cylinders are MUCH bigger.....
Thunderball! Largo covered the shark pool on him, so he whipped out his spare air and swam out through the trap door that the sharks came in through.
.....grab one of those tiny tanks and make it to the surface.
Teamcasa:Yet I'd bet my last dollar that there is not a single detractor that being caught suddenly OOA and no nearby buddy (spare me all the reasons why you would never be caught solo and OOA) that would not be thrilled to grab one of those tiny tanks and make it to the surface.
It was silly. How many times did he scooter past the cameraman? How many times did he trade out spare airs? I think the numbers are pretty close to the same.
I find this whole thing quite humorous that there is such a negative reaction to a tiny tank that holds anywhere between 3 and 12 breaths of air.

ONESPEED:Not everything needs to be analyzed in excruciating detail Walter, especially something OBVIOUSLY intended as a joke.
