Aircraft fuel tank diving

Over my lifeless body. Hell no.

I know it’s empty but there’s gotta be noxious fumes in there. Where’s the respirator? 💀

Aircraft fuel tank diving is a specialized form of technical diving that involves exploring and inspecting the inside of aircraft fuel tanks. This type of diving is typically performed by experienced and trained divers who have the necessary skills and equipment to safely navigate the confined spaces and potentially hazardous conditions of a fuel tank. The purpose of aircraft fuel tank diving can vary, but it is often done to inspect for leaks, corrosion, or other damage that could compromise the integrity of the tank. Divers may also be tasked with cleaning or repairing the tank as needed. Due to the unique challenges and risks associated with aircraft fuel tank diving, it is important for divers to undergo thorough training and follow strict safety protocols. This may include using specialized equipment such as drysuits, communication devices, and gas monitoring systems to ensure a safe and successful dive.

In Vietnam we had guys that would go into enemy tunnels as small as that only pitch dark and never knowing what surprises were waiting for them. Super courageous dudes and usually the smallest guys in the platoon. Called them tunnel rats
