You state a lot of random things as a fact, while none of them are, not sure why the upvotes.
Other react mostly to guns, but as a diver I can assure you that there is no automatic brain damage from 'diving deep underwater', whatever that layman term means. There are many folks in diving community with 10s of thousand of dives working cognitively as well as their peers. If you mean Nitrox for bigger depths, again that ain't true, Nitrox is actually better than regular compressed air re effects like nitrogen bubbles in your bloodstream.
If you screw up or your equipment fails and end up with decompression sickness thats another story, but its like saying paragliding breaks your legs.
- kragen 2y agoi don't mean nitrox, and i agree that scuba diving doesn't cause brain damage at all (except, as you point out, in accidents) possibly people are upvoting because they know some facts you don't
- echoangle 2y agoBut what diving except scuba is relevant when talking about seals? Are they doing apnea diving?
- kragen 2y agothat was my inference, but i don't have much information about seal training, so i could be wrong. it's a little irrelevant though because, as i said originally, the description of the type of brain damage should rule out diving as a cause
