who loves jello :)

jello diving?? bad visibility & hard to breathe!!! (fun stuff)!!!

Actually, depending on the flavor, viz might be better than some of the places I dive... and breathing would be ok (exhaling might take effort), it's the moving around part I'm worried about. ...oh, BTW, KY was annexed and is part of New New England.

It's amazing the feedback you get in this forum from people outside of New England when you ask a question related to neither diving nor New England.

Jello can be used to environmentally seal you first stage if you are diving in Tappioca pudding.

Hey, that is MY JOB!

Actually, most of it wasn't as nice as tappioca pudding but sometimes had similar consistency. :11:

J-E-L-L-O is good stuff. Just don't put it in a public fountain. Had that happen to a local college fountain and needless to say, it plugged up really fast. I was really waiting for it to set up top side but it never happened, just turned green....guess what flavor that was.

To get this back to diving, we had a fun dive off andros we called a jello dive.

Drop a weighted line to about 150' in clear calm water not too far from a wall, but well out of visibility in 6000 feet of water. Divers drop to the weight and hang out with their back to the weight. It's just like diving in a HUGE bowl of blue Jell-O You couldn't see surface from that depth, and there was no visual reference in any other direction. You cant tell how big the "fishies" are until they make a turn. A 20' hammer head looks just like a 6' one until he turns a few feet away from you and you get perspective on him. Lots of neat things besides boneless toothy critters would show up to check us out too. It was simply the luck of the draw what showed up, if anything. It could be anything from schooling dophin to marlin to sperm whales.

Nothing beat it for relaxing after a day's work, about 15 minutes out from my office in the harbor.

lol I know, right. How did they even see this? Are you "Utahn's" lurking in our forum? lolz.

Well, red jello is the best, a mon avis.

Sorry I've been meaning to move this, since it was a reported thread. Anyway, how about some recipes for the stuff? I love it when it's in a mold and made with cool whip layers, or cream cheese. Or evaporated milk? Who knows?
