Scuba Doo

[eastlondonseagull]

This was featured in the Metro newspaper this morning, and I seriously thought it was a wind-up. But no. It's 'scuba' without the mask or breathing apparatus; you can wear glasses etc underwater and you needn't even get your hair wet.

Surely it's suss?!

Great Idea until someone drives in into sharp coral and the tank explodes. Or someone uses it without a safely line, and goes to deep and it just sinks into an Abyss.

That was I was thinking. They claim you don't need to be a strong swimmer. But what if something goes wrong and you crash? You'd be pretty f*cked, surely?

I can't see anyone that is a scuba diving fan, wanting one of those.

Not exactly practical!

As you say, you would be pretty stuck if there was a malfunction, whilst deep in the ocean.

Bizarre!
I wonder if it has a stereo?

someone at my work said "can't be real, look at the size of that starfish"

Although Starfish, five legs, could do a job......

And surely, the whole thing about scuba is that it's kind of hands-on - you're not supposed to handle coral etc but you at least get a proper sensation of swimming amongst the fish etc. In that bike thingie, how would you simulate that?

They're not built to go deep, only for shallow waters - normally in enclosed areas. I've seen them being used while on holiday and people did enjoy them. I'll stick to the BCD, regulator and octopus though.

I can't even see her starfish - is there another picture?

Thats what I want to know!

Oh Jesus, that looks like a recipe for disaster. Novice divers are quite often a liability but an inexperienced diver on one of these things!

A muppet on one of those could do a lot of damage to coral, or themselves if the water was deep. Can't see experienced divers wanting to use one.

 

[Lokki 7]

Nice legs though.

Apologies green guy. Clearly you wouldn't bump into things.

Quite! Afterall it said that I can wear my glasses in the Scuba Doo

Trust the Aussies to dream this up. I cant see them selling many..

That's why they got Andy Johnson to test pilot it.

Looks like a Scuba Don't to me.
