What happens to deep sea divers that go too deep?
Deep sea divers who go too deep can experience a condition called decompression sickness, also known as "the bends." This occurs when nitrogen bubbles form in the bloodstream as a result of rapid ascent, leading to symptoms like joint pain, dizziness, and shortness of breath. In severe cases, the bends can be life-threatening and require immediate medical treatment in a hyperbaric chamber.
