Diving







History of diving

There is evidence that freediving has been practiced for thousands of years to get food or riches (pearls or coral, for example) and also for military purposes. Scuba diving, using helmet and breathing air supplied from the surface, began to develop throughout the second half of the eighteenth century but especially from the early nineteenth century and today continues to resort to similar techniques. However, the scuba diver limits the diver's mobility because the diver stays connected to the surface by an air hose.
The search for autonomy by inventors (autonomous diving is one that does not require any connection with the surface) produced throughout the nineteenth century some inventions of limited effectiveness. But it was not until 1942 that the technology was going to take a giant leap and allow the man to dive completely independently of the surface. Thanks to Jacques-Yves Cousteau who was a French naval officer, explorer and researcher who studied the sea and various forms of life known in the water. Cousteau is especially remembered for having been in 1943, together with Émile Gagnan, the co-inventor of the regulators still used today in autonomous diving.
