True Lies
That I watched a movie True Lies made me know how a dry suit is used. It can keep a diver warm and dry under ice water. Arnold Schwarzenegger wear shirt under the dry suit. After he has taken off the dry suit, he can wear a tuxedo at once and go to a diplomatic banquet.This is the scene of how Arnold takes off his dry suit.
The director uses a back-zipper dry suit for Arnold that must be unzipped by other people.
Had he used a front-zipper dry suit that can be self-donned, it would have been more convincing.
I also had another question from this scene. Can a shirt that was worn under a dry suit be as straight as a just ironed shirt? I did my proof later.

1. Dry suit
2. Thicker wet suit
3. Electronic heating warm diving suit

Dry suit is the most expensive solution. It costed over HK$20000 (US$2600) per suit twenty years ago, but it has dropped to below HK$10000(US$1300) in most of the brands.
Dry suit divers are required to take a lesson on the usage of dry suit, which includes a lecture and

Wearing dry suit can't urinate as free as wetsuit in which we may do whenever we want, if it isn't installed a pee valve. For men, their penis wears an uridome, which is similar to a condom but with an open end, to attach the pee valve. Therefore, the wearing procedure is very similar to wearing condoms with a little trick.

In the contrary, women can't enjoy such freedom. They used to wear diapers as their anatomy of genital is difference until 2006.A female diver, Heleen who is a Dutch, invented a primary version of she-p, which was made by latex, because she had envied the freedom of male divers. As a lot of people had an allergy to latex. Nowadays, they are made by medical grade silicone.

I wanted to prove whether True Lies is true. I wore a shirt with tie as undergarment. When I have been descending, the water pressure has been applying pressure on the dry suit and squeezing theDry suit with shirt and tie |
