Scuba Bowl Web Quiz

[DiveCaptDean]

Hey Lee-
Is it possible to get some of the locations that you got some of your information from..specifically the first question.  Keep in mind i did not submit my answers to enter the contest, but i did follow along.  So its for my own informaiton.....

Information that i found states that the first hyperbaric chambers( while crude ) were used as far back as the 1660's...yes 1660's and the first chamber in North america was in Ontario in 1860 and then in the US in 1861.  In 1893 i found that of course a chamber was in use for caissons disease, but more importantly, this was the first time that there was actually a model created for its use...thus the beginning of the evolution of  hyperbaric recompression therapy..rather than just the use of a recompression chamber. 

Just curious

Very fun contest by the way and congratulations to all of the winners...
