Diving is an opportunity to relax and immerse yourself
in a vibrant world full of secrets and adventures. The
concept of 'diving' (translated from English - descent under water, immersion of a diver). Diving is recreational scuba diving. It should not be confused with diving, since a diver is, first of all, a professional who has passed a special course. training, trained to dive, as a rule, to great depths and carry out special work there. Divers are simply enthusiastic people who dive with scuba gear under the water to enjoy communicating with nature and underwater inhabitants. Amateur diving is both diving in the crystal clear waters of tropical seas surrounded by colorful fish and corals, and exploring a ship that sank not far from some island. The diver and his partner put on equipment, enter the water and begin to study the underwater flora and fauna, slowly moving through the water column. They invented a diving suit with a steel helmet. It consisted of a steel helmet with a porthole and an air hose, and a rubber wetsuit. On his feet, the diver put on special boots with lead soles, and on his shoulders a special sleeve equipped with metal bolts for fastening the helmet. The Englishman August Zibe invented this suit in 1837. This costume without significant changes exists even now, in our days, and will probably continue for a long time. But a diver in such a suit is always tied with a hose to the ship, where the air pump is located. Consequently, there could be no question of freedom of swimming under water. Again, humanity faced the problem: what still needs to be invented so that the diver has unlimited freedom of movement in the water column.
And it was necessary to invent a scuba tank, a cylinder
with compressed air that would be attached to the diver's back. What Jacques Yves Cousteau did in 1945. He supplied the cylinder with compressed air and a special valve to which a breathing hose was attached. The air hose ended with a device that directed the exhaled air out into the water, at the same time equalizing the pressure of the compressed air to the pressure of the environment
