    Snorkeling gear? So, what, a 5 foot Reed like in looney toons? Because you don’t snorkel to sit on the bottom.

      You snorkel so you can continually see what’s below you without holding your breath. Then you spit it out when you’re ready to dive.

        Don’t you mean you spit it out when you come back from the depths like a whale?

          If you black out with a snorkel in your mouth while you’re diving, it will cause water to rush into your lungs and you will almost certainly die.
