In 1772, Frenchmen, Sieur Freminet invented a 'rebreathing' device that recycled the exhaled air from inside of the barrel, this was the first self-contained air device. Freminet's invention was a poor one, the inventor died from lack of oxygen after being in his own device for twenty minutes.


i know that its hard for a website to be alert and know everything but truly you have loads of inventors but nothing about them , i mean check out the history of scuba diving , there is just one paragraph
Calli you are right that the scuba diving has a lot of history but this is one of the biggest and most important inventions.
cool story bro.
yeah, except the pic isn’t even related to the paragraph – that’s a picture of the suit invented by Harry Houdini in 1921!
