Also, NASA uses these rooms for Astronaut training in water.


Apparently you start to hallucinate after a while (longest someone was in the chamber for was 45 minutes), would be totally cool to hear what my body organs sound like though.

Oh, and apparently when it's pretty quiet I sometimes here these sounds: tinnitus. Most likely pulsatile, but I hear high pitched stuff which could be:

two recognized sources of very-high-pitched sounds might be electromagnetic fields common in modern wiring and various sound signal transmissions. A common and often misdiagnosed condition that mimics tinnitus is Radio Frequency (RF) hearing,[16] in which subjects have been tested and found to hear high-pitched transmission frequencies that sound similar to tinnitus.
