I saw a video on TV where they tested what happened when an old time diving suit would lose pressure underwater.

The air was supplied from above through a tube.

Occasionally there would be a catastrophic failure and loss of air pressure, and they would find a good portion of the body crammed up inside the diving helmet.

This was at less than 200 feet.

This is 2 miles down.
