Diver I.Q. Test!

[Papa Bear]

Okay a league is equal to 5 kilometers so how did Captain Nemo go 20000's Leagues under the sea?

[acelockco]

It is make believe man. Now it is all starting to make complete sense man. I was wondering how you came up with some of your ideas.

:p

Just messing with you...

[rubber chicken]

Distance travelled horizontally ?

That one is easy! He did it with the Nautilus!

;)

[h2odragon1]

Rubber chicken got it right!
Thats a good circumnavigation! :)

[shinek]

A league was a lot smaller in those days, that's what inflation does for you. ;)

[Papa Bear]

Rubber Chicken got it! It is the distance around the world under the surface!

[Papa Bear]

Next I am a solo Diver and I dive with two tanks equaling 108 cubic feet of air! One is not a 95 cubic foot tank! What are the two tanks? Standard non custom tanks with no over fills or under!

[Papa Bear]

Okay here is a chart of all the standard tanks: http://www.twotankedproductions.com/educationcoolstuff/tanksqa.html

[Papa Bear]

Okay I will give you the answer tomorrow!

Now, two divers are left behind at the end of the days third dive! When the surface the boat is going away fast...... They float for a while and see a small piece of land off in the distance! They start to swim for it and are making headway.... As the sun is setting the stumble ashore to find a small fish shed! In the shed is a Lantern, a Stove, and a fire ring just outside the door and a match box with one match left in it! The wind is coming up outside and they have to make the decision! What do you light first?

[Sarah]

The shed! lol

[dalehall]

Actually, I would light the match first. Kind of hard to light anything else if the match isn't lit. :D

[Papa Bear]

The Match is right of course! 2 for 3 not too bad so far! Any guesses on #2? Or do I post the answer? iDC even if you burned the shed the match would still be first! ;):p

[Papa Bear]

#4: Your survival skills are important! You and your buddy are researchers on assignment and you get stranded! You build a shelter with four southern exposers and while in side a large bear wonders by! You find a radio and have to tell before the battery goes dead where you are!

Where are you and what color is the bear?

[acelockco]

The North Pole and the Bear is White as it is a Polar Bear.

63 and a 45

[dalehall]

Nice Ace.. I had the same answer for the shelter one.. Never gave a lot of thought on the other one..

[Papa Bear]

Nice job ace! The two tanks are a 95 cft and a 13 cft I said one wasn't but never said the other wasn't! :p

[Papa Bear]

#5: Two SCUBA divers diving off the coast of Grease found two coins around the area of a sunken ship! They were Persian in origin dated 983BC they where near the landing sight of the battle of Thermopylae! Is this possible and why?

[Papa Bear]

#6: If you drove a dive boat out to the reef with 12 divers on it and 10 did the dive and the rest decided to do the afternoon dive, so you recovered all the divers and returned for new tanks and pickup a new load of divers this time 9 divers and two snorkelers and this time all went into the water, but the snorkelers drifted off not to be found! You return with 2 less and picked up 6 search and recovery divers and returned to the sight!

What is the name of the person responsible for the loss of the 2 snorkelers?

[Papa Bear]

#7: You book a live a board dive trip in the T & C islands. You are one of 18 divers aboard from all over the world! 4 from Great Britten, 2 from Sweden, 8 from Texas, 2 from Poland, yourself and a room mate from France! You are transiting to the Silver Banks in the middle of the night when a Carnival Cruise ship strikes your boat amide ship sending it to the bottom in the middle of the Tongue of the Sea! You're in International waters!

So where would the survivors be buried?

[Papa Bear]

#8: (I will be gone from the 2nd to the 6th so I am posting ahead a little we might not have service?) A dive boat leaves the dock with 32 80cft Aluminum tanks on board! The weather becomes so bad that the tank racks rip away and all but 13 tanks are swept overboard! How many tanks are left on the boat when it limped back to the dock without sinking?

[Papa Bear]

#9 How far can a diver go on a reef from a dive boat on an Aluminum 80cft SCUBA tank at a depth of 45ftsw? Given he has been asked to be back on board with 500psi in his tank?

[Papa Bear]

#10 Again your on a dive boat with divers from all over the world this coming week! The Boat is in Nassau Bahamas does the boat have 4th of July if it is registered in Belize and most of the divers are English?

Sh*t, when did the survivors die? I was hoping to see them again on another trip. Am I dead?

[Papa Bear]

Ace, your too smart! Wait to see how many you get and I will tell you your dive level! Good job! The answer: They don't!

[rubber chicken]

No, it isn't possible because coins won't be dated BC ( Before Christ) 'cause how would they know they were before him?

[Papa Bear]

RC gets another one! :D

[rubber chicken]

#10 Again your on a dive boat with divers from all over the world this coming week! The Boat is in Nassau Bahamas does the boat have 4th of July if it is registered in Belize and most of the divers are English?

Everybody has a 4th July, its just that not everybody celebrates it! Only the Americans for Independence Day, ( and the Brits for getting rid of the Americans :D)

[Papa Bear]

Man are you looking this stuff up? LOL Nice job! I got a Brit friend of mine on that one!

[lottie]
