Worst way to go. Its slow, you have a lot of time to slowly be covered by sea water.

People get stuck there every year, many cannot be freed.

Its really crazy how quickly you can get sideways here. Even experienced people.

Marc Andre Leclerc one of the best climbers in the world died within sight of our suburbs here in JNU.

Seems like s snorkel device with about a 100' hose and a float up top with an air entrance could be a workable thing?

Although the panic of being stuck underwater and breathing through a snorkel for a few hours might really suck.

Best description of nature is:

"nature is not cruel it is indifferent. It doesn't care".
