Breath underwater without an air tank. -cool technology
 
http://www.isracast.com/tech_news/310505_tech.htm

An Israeli Inventor has developed a breathing apparatus that will allow breathing underwater without the assistance of oxygen tanks. This new invention will use the relatively small amounts of air that already exist in water to supply oxygen to both scuba divers and submarines. The invention has already captured the interest of most major diving manufacturers as well as the Israeli Navy.

I want one.

I prefer "Drunk card playing nerd with guns that jumps out of airplanes and breaks a lot of bones".

Clayton N, I really haven't watched TV in over 6 months and southpark is one thing I do miss. In short, I have no clue what that pic is supposed to mean.

although it sounds really cool, it still looks pretty similar to current scuba tanks.

I thought your post was going to be a picture of a snorkel.

True, but size will shrink in time and will also become more efficient. This device is new but it still greatly increases the amount of time you can stay underwater. Using an air tank you will have to get a new tank every 40 minutes or so. Tanks are huge. Here you just need a new battery or a power cord.

Plus with 1 minute recharge batteries:

SOLID STATE BATTERIES

And even fuel cells

The technology could evolve to let you stay down there all day. When SCUBA diving, 40 minutes goes by very fast.
