Sep 3, 2015 at 14:20 comment added Ezra Bailey @TildalWave Very cool, thanks for the info! That does sound like it would be very uncomfortable to both fill up initially and remove it all at the end.
Sep 3, 2015 at 12:08 comment added TildalWave @SarahBourt Yes. There's even been Sci-Fi movies on the subject, but it's a real deal. That first breath has to be pretty painful tho.
Sep 3, 2015 at 11:51 comment added Ezra Bailey @TildalWave Interesting; would it actually be possible to breathe liquids in certain circumstances? (that sounds like a silly question, but I've found greater surprises in life)
Sep 3, 2015 at 11:50 comment added Ezra Bailey Sorry for the vagueness of the question. My significant other asked this at 1am while I was telling him about Titan, and google was only returning information on the lower limits of livability.

Sep 2, 2015 at 22:29 comment added TildalWave Excluding anything else but the pressure, if you're ready to breathe liquids, then we could technically survive up to the pressure where our body cavities collapse. Since those are filled with poorly compressible liquids, it would take quite some pressure to do that. Not sure we actually know at what pressure that happens tho.
Sep 2, 2015 at 22:22 comment added Organic Marble Given sufficient time to acclimate, I think this question reduces to "what is the maximum pressure saturation divers could withstand".
Sep 2, 2015 at 21:49 comment added kim holder Doesn't this largely depend on how one enters the environment? Divers can go pretty deep, but not in a rush.
