There is a material called Gortex. It allows air to pass through it but not water. We use it in some of our products at work. It's black. Could be that or something like that.

Gore-Tex - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yeah, I've got a Goretex jacket and a Goretex leg cover sitting in my closet. About a $150 jacket that you get for free in the military. You also get a lining for it. It's not really that badass, and it does restrict your movement quite a fucking bit. But hey, it's waterproof.

That is the zipper so they can enter/exit the bubble.

Air is way too buoyant for that. A bubble that size could easily have 1000 lbs inside of it without even fully submerging.

it could be attached to a winch and submerged couldn't it? that'd be pretty fucking bad ass. Do it in a large aquarium and you can swim with the fishes

You know, that would be an extremely awesome "ride" type attraction. Put person in a bubble and then put then in an airlock which would fill up with water. Then the person is released into an aquarium with a glass ceiling or something, and they can "roam around" for a bit, getting right up close to the fish and whatnot. After a certain amount of time they would need to return to the airlock so someone else could go.

I did something like that recently in Tahiti. Basically, it was this 80 lbs helmet that had an air tube continually feeding you fresh air. With the air going in and the weight of the helmet it was almost neutrally buoyant. It was badass they gave you a loaf of bread so the fish go ape around you. I got bored of feeding the fish after about 5 minutes so I spent the next 30 jumping around like I'm on the moon.

I think it'd be a cooler ride if they winched you down and then let you go, shooting you upwards like a bat out of hell.

Would you actually need decompression if you were in a bubble though? Wouldn't the pressure inside the bubble still be normal?
