I just thought of the ultimate trip tip......tripping while scuba diving in the peacefull, serene, life of the ocean...just imagine looking at the beautiful colorful school of fishes...and all the crazy and alien-like landscapes, corals, it would be soo cool....until jaws comes and chomps you into half.

I guess that would depend on where you are diving. Up here in Vancouver the water is quite cold and murky,with nothing colorful to see. It sound like it would be interesting somewhere warm, but a little too risky for me.

i think scuba diving would be pretty dangerous while tripping, just because you have to be aware of your nitrogen levels and all of that. you fuck up, and that's it for you. if it weren't for the practical reasons, it would be amazing.
snorkeling might be a little less dangerous, as long as you stayed in relatively shallow water. all the colorful fish and the beatiful clear water... that would be the shit.

what a horrible idea.
scuba diving sober is dangerous as is.
there are so many things to keep track of and remember.
you could die so easily scuba diving while tripping.
i hope no one does this.

I agree. Avoid diving in the water, stick with snorkeling at a beach of tropical reef or something. That would rock anyones ass off.
Anybody here ever tripped at a water park before?

I think tripping while scuba diving would be great. No hearing and no feeling just swimming around looking at crazy shit. I am sure if you have already learned how to dive and you take a low dose then you should be fine. A snorkel would be safer and probably still pretty fun.

Even swimming was too much for me. If you get the feeling that deep there in the water a shark is waiting, then you?re out of water in no time, and the feeling isn?t pleasant....

Scuba diving is not particularly dangerous, as long as you are properly trained and follow the rules. Of course unexpected things can happen just like with anything else.
But as cool as it is to imagine, scuba diving while under the influence of any drug greatly increases the risk and is incredibly irresponsible. I can imagine you could easily get carried away and forget there are certain precautions you have to take. This is alright to do if you have a death wish, or maybe if you took a very low dose and had alot of straight people around to help you.. but altogether it's a bad idea. Diving is an awesome experience anyway without drugs.

You don need drugs, just take a deep dive SCUBA course and go to the limit with compressed air (30 - 40 meters) and you WILL have a nitrogen NARCOSIS, that can be very strong.
SCUBA would be taken seriously, I now a couple people who have died.

I am a divemaster. Worked in Hawaii for a couple years doing it. If I found out that any of my divers were on drugs I would kill them myself back on the boat. If you're gonna do this, do it as a solo dive so you don't put your dive buddy(s) in unneeded danger. Oooo look at the pretty..... and forget to check your air and depth, it's your life. If you are going to be stupid anyway: Don't put those responcible for your safty in danger. Know the dive site inside out like the back of your hand. Only attempt in perfect weather/water conditions. And the big one, be an expert diver and an expert drug user 1st. 150 dives is an absolute minimum for this type of stupidity. Several trips under your belt is also a minimum.
Bottom line: don't do it!

not very smart
especially if you are near deep water
after one night of drinking and being tired, i almost killed myself
was at 100 ft on a wall to 4000
next thing i knew i heard clanging on the tank
i didnt think, didnt say i should check my depth
didnt check my bc
somehow looked at the gauge, not by choice, i wasd at 150!
i was nrac'd, when you get narc'd the danger is, you dont feel drunk or stoned
thats the danger, you dont feel it
well then , like a pavlov dog experiment i went up to the dive level of 100 ft, not because i thought ineeded to, i couldnt think, i just did it
then i ran out of air at 100 ft
if it wasnt for a dive instrcuctor with a pony
i would not have been able to decompress
bad bad idea, and that was just a little hangover, and im nitrox certified

That is so crazy and stupid. While shrooming you lose all sense of time, how could you remember to check your depth, how long you've been down?
As said before diving is so incredible without drugs, why risk your life?

if you just wanna see with it would be like to be fully underwater do it in a pool with plenty of people around to pull you out if needed. If its for the sights then, do it in a swimming pool thats been converted to look like the ocean floor with plenty of people around

Most of the best reef's are in depths under 40 ft... if you found something nice in like 15 ft water you could dive pretty safely for around an hour. I just got back from Grand Cayman~ often over 100ft visibility and no current, it'd be one of the safest places to try it... not that I'd want to. I tried diving in a pool high durring my certification and it was crazy fun.
Heh I can't imagine tripping on a wall dive... just 3 days ago I was on a wall dive at around 120 ft that dropped below 6000 feet- pretty freaky while straight.

I have wanted to do this for a while now and I have come up with a decent plan for those who are interested. First and most importantly, this is DANGEROUS and should not even be thought about being attempted unless you are BOTH an experienced certified diver AND an experienced tripper. Here is the plan:
This probably would only be fun in a shallow warm water coral environment such as in the Caribbean. Now it is true that there are lots of things to think about and keep track of while diving but the two critical ones are your air supply and no-decompession limits. This is why I would only recommend a shallow (<50 feet) dive, and not anywhere near a wall or anyplace where it is even possible to be deeper then 50 feet. This would allow you to focus only on your air supply (which you should CONSTANTLY be monitoring) because unless you are using a multi-tank setup your air supply is not going to last 80 minutes (which is the no-decomp limit at 50 feet). Secondly, I COMPLETELY disagree with the "divemaster" who recommends not diving with a buddy (which is the cardinal rule in diving). You should dive with a dive buddy you know who is sober and is COMPLETELY AWARE of what you are doing. Also, you should know the dive site well and take only a low (1/2 eighth to 1 eighth) dose of shrooms. I would also recommend practicing to see if you like it by snorkeling on shrooms first. As long as you don't panic, have a well planned dive(make sure your buddy has a secondary air source and you should have a pony bottle also), and follow these recommendations you can trip while diving with atleast a small assurance that you will be ok.

been diving since 1977....not a smart idea.....water is not a natural place for us to be....if things go wrong, we generally die. Much less chance of this on terra firma. I can understand the fascination - it is a beautiful world below the surface. A good dive is a trip all in itself, without the enhancement of shroomies. Too much stuff to keep track of and too uncertain to manage those not so expected occurences....

Yeah, a tandem or static line jump would not only be better, in my opinion; it would also be safer.
I've done one static line and me an the wife each did our first two tandem jumps this past summer. I thought about taking some peyote but I'm glad I didn't.
Many, many years ago, I was tripping with one of my spoiled, rich cousins down in florida where they had an enormous country club style pool in their back yard. It was complete with a high dive and an area 12 feet deep for diving. It was my first time visiting them at that house and they had some decent blotter at the time. Well apparently they dosed damn near every day and made a ritual of doing this thing in the pool that blew me away. They had several lengths of plastic hose, maybe 3/4" in diameter and at least 15 feet long with a tapered mouth piece on one end. They'd use zip ties to fasten one end to the pool ladder and they'd use these hoses as big ass snorkels. They even provided me with nose plugs. I wouldn't want to be scuba diving while tripping, but just being able to float underwater for an extended period without coming into contact with any solid forms was amazing. I remember, we were underwater for at least 30 min. and I lost all sense of my bodily confines. I felt like I was the whole pool, I couldn't tell where my body ended and the water began.
Good stuff.

I am an experienced diver and would never do anything like this. You would likely end up dead. Just eat some shrooms and go to the aquarium.

An aquarium is nothing like diving and shrooms are nothing like acid. I disagree you would likely end up dead, however if you think that way DO NOT DO IT. I understand the hesitation with the idea and I never said it was a safe thing to do. However, if you have respect and experience with both shrooms and diving and are willing to accept the risks then you are probably ok. I am not talking about tripping balls here, I am talking about taking enough to reach that threshold that would make diving an even more exhilirating experience.

Hmm, If going deep a very bad idea. If your in a shallow body, say 30 feet, it could be quite fun Id think. Take a friend and stay the fuck out of the ocean.

That's awesome. I am now making this my life goal. I did'nt think anyone was crazy enough to do it but now that I have heard of people doing it three diffent times I am gonna do it. But not with acid thats a little over the boundry for me. I think i'll stick with a low dose of shrooms.

I think it'd be insane but i'd only do it with my friend who was sober. It'd be even cooler if you could pipe some music in somehow so you can listen to bob marely, cake, or something really chill while you float around.

I think it would be beautiful and if your an experienced diver I think it would be a great experience. A friend of mine who's an experienced sky diver, wanted to go sky diving alone while tripping off shrooms (I don't even think hes had them before). He asked me what I thought because I eat them all the time. I said it would prob be cool as hell and amazing, or totally opposite. But either way, no matter how the trip is going it would be very dangerous and a lot could go wrong, pulling the shoot and other problems such as landing, and that not even thinking about law. Well either way its a stupid idea unless ur strapped to someone who's going to pull the cord for you. Scuba trip sounds awesome though. But only for experienced scuba divers and sh roomers.

That'd be cool as shit to be strapped on to a trained sky diver after dosing shrooms.. But it wouldn't last very long.

I've been tempted to try scuba diving while tripping after a friend told me about his amazing experience doing this. I don't think I really have the balls to do it though. I definitely agree that it's quite risky and you could get yourself in the shit too easily.
Swimming around in the surf is a great experience while tripping. Snorkelling is another great idea that would at least give something close to diving without the risk. I'm definitely up for taking shrooms while snorkelling this summer.

A few times, I have smoked bud before diving, and I LOVED it. It was awsome and all but you really haft to be carful. There are so many things to monotor while diving... debth, time, air, your buddy.... Get any of these things wrong... and It can be your life.

smoking is a lot different from shrooming. I'm sure if you took only an 8th and tripped on a 1 or 2 you would be fine and it would be a beautiful experience however it depends on the persons personality and I'm positive that experience in scuba diving and with shrooms greatly effect the outcome on whether or not its to risky or not. I have never been scuba diving where you have a tank and wet suit, but have been snorkeling/diving in Florida and it was beautiful.
