SKhanmi:
You know why?

SKhanmi:
You know why?

Obakovicho:
They see things. But vowed not say else they'll get be killed when they enter the water again

SKhanmi:
I guessed as much. Seems like I'll have to experience it myself.

Now for laymen like us, you will wonder why they died and wtf is aero embolism. Well sea diving isn't as simple as potrayed on the TV. There are steps to be taken before descent and ascent. I'll try to break it down in layman language.

Basically, as one goes below certain depths in the sea, the pressure increases,imagine you lying on the ground and they placed a Boeing 747 on your back, adding more as you go deeper. Reason why deep sea divers are not crushed is that they stop regularly at selected points to let their bodies acclimatize to the pressure. This is done when going down or up. Now at this depths some gases like nitrogen which normally will be breathed out along with the rest will instead dissolve into the blood and tissues as inert gases during the period the diver is underwater. As he/she slowly rises up. It goes back to the lung to be breathed out. Imagine a rubber tire placed between two steel flat screens and pumped full of air to the maximum pressure allowed. At that stage only the pressure from the steel screens allows the tire to keep its elastic limit. Now imagine suddenly removing the steel screens. That tire is going to explode See the human as the tire and the steel screens as the sea pressure. Only in this case, the nitrogen becomes active and forms bubbles in the blood and tissues which blocks blood flow and cause damage by stretching, tearing, or pressing on the affected parts. Those Russian divers where forcibly ejected from a great depths to the surface.

This is what they must have looked like, See attached. Literally bursting from the insides.
