:36:04
So, I got to the storage room at about 3:15
and cut off the power to the box.
:36:09
It cycled down to a tolerable level
at about 3:19.
:36:12
The trick is to get in
after it reaches a comfortable level...
:36:15
but before it shuts off completely.
There's a window there.
:36:19
So, does it hurt?
:36:22
Yeah, it does a little.
:36:24
It's not bad if you wait for the right time.
It's like a small static shock.
:36:28
-Once you're in, you're fine, though.
-What?
:36:31
I know you've done it,
and I can only assume that you don't have...
:36:34
cancer or male impotence.
:36:36
But what is your opinion
on how safe this thing is?
:36:39
I can imagine no way
in which this thing would be...
:36:42
considered anywhere remotely close to safe.
:36:44
All I know is I spent six hours in there
and I'm still alive.
:36:50
You still want to do it?
:37:09
I set the alarm on my stopwatch
for six hours.
:37:12
I regulated the O2 tank,
took some Dramamine, and tried to sleep.
:37:16
Did you?
:37:18
-What?
-Did you sleep?
:37:20
Not at first. I've never
considered myself claustrophobic...
:37:24
but I started sweating and I couldn't find
the right flow rate on the tank...
:37:29
and I was breathing differently than I was
when I was testing it on the outside.
:37:33
Eventually, I settled down, and...
:37:36
I don't know, maybe it was the Dramamine
kicking in, but I remember this moment...
:37:40
in the dark
with the reverberation of the machine.
:37:43
It was maybe the most content
I've ever been.
:37:49
I woke up on my own without the alarm...
:37:52
and waited for the machine to cool down.
Cool down from my perspective.
:37:55
It got to a point where it sounded safe
to get out...
:37:58
but the stopwatch still showed
a couple minutes...
