100 days under water; A researcher tries to break the record of life in the deep sea

The American researcher, who has been underwater to a depth of 9 meters since the beginning of March and lives in a space of 55 square meters, plans to continue living under pressure for 100 days.

“Joe Dittori”, a former diver of the US Navy and an expert in biomedical engineering, has been underwater to a depth of 9 meters since the beginning of March this year and lives in a space of 55 square meters.

This researcher, who had served as an officer in the US Navy for 28 years and during this time saw the concussions of many of her colleagues closely, plans to continue living underwater for 100 days, and if she succeeds, by the end of these 100 days If the water remains, it will break the record for the longest stay under the surface of the oceans.


Being trapped in a small box under the sea is probably one of the biggest nightmares of many of us, but this American researcher is conducting an experiment to stay in such conditions for 100 days to evaluate the effect of living in a high-pressure environment on the human body.

Dettori’s experiment will be very different from life in submarines, where pressure levels are regulated and balanced.


That is, the room in which Dettori lives, in terms of pressure conditions, will not be similar to submarines, and she can feel the pressure of the deep sea.

In addition, Dattori’s room has large windows, but she will not receive sunlight during this time; This may cause her body’s circadian clock to suffer.


Dettori can also swim at the same depth of the sea, but considering the limited space she has to walk, it remains to be seen what effect this inactivity will have on her body and muscles.

It should be mentioned that the previous record was recorded by two college biology professors in America named “Bruce Cantrell and Jessica”.

Bruce Cantrell and Jessica Finn spent 73 days, two hours and 34 minutes in a 28 square meter
chamber at a depth of 10 meters underwater.
