and NO one has thaught to attach these tanks to a sled or somthing to swim with you and a interchangeable harness yet?!

I mean, how do you MOVE with these things hitting your knees!!!!
 
Well, that's certainly not how I'd carry that many bottles. Why he doesn't use a leash is beyond me. In any case, for dives of this nature, a scooter becomes a real requirement.
 
um no
not all of us are that crazy.
that's looney tunes right there
 
That is what we call a christmas tree diver.
 
The diver in the picture in the first post is taking an unecessary risk by failing to utilize a piece of scuba gear that would give him an extra margin of safety and is really not much more effort to carry.

Tech divers who know your stuff, take a good look at the picture and see if you can figure out what vital piece of gear is missing before clicking on the Spoiler tag to reveal it.

The unnecessary risk is having all those stages up front and both sides. If an emergency were to occur, there is no way he would have the mobility or the reaction time needed to react appropriately.
 
If there was a dive to need that much Gas Just get a rebreather at that point
 
That appears to be in pretty shallow water. Do you know what the dive objective was?

I am going to try this someday soon. Although I don't have any steel stages and have no way to attach them on the right side. But still I'm going for 5x Al80 stages
