Density increases which is why your air consumption increases. But what I should have said is the amount or mass stays the same. As water pressure increases, density decreases, the amount if the same, just more dense, causing each puff taken to consume more of the air. 3:26 and 3:34 I said Nitrogen Psychosis on mistake, it's called Nitrogen Narcosis (or even more correctly, inert gas narcosis)! Or often referred to as "getting narced". Psychosis can be a symptom of the narcosis but the name of this rapture of the deep is "Nacrosis". Also! If you experience Nitrogen narcosis, it is important to ascend slowly until symptoms alleviate. (thank you @thelooney1976 and @timgosling6189 for excellent comments on these) Also some additional great detail on oxygen toxicity and how it really effects the body if given by @provuk in the comments.
