Sea otters can dive down to 600 feet, at that depth the pressure is about 265 psi. So the answer is yes, Steve can perform under pressure.

Sea otters eat 25 percent of their body weight in food every day. Sea otters’ diets include sea urchins, crabs, mussels, and clams, which they’re known to crack open with a rock and eat while floating in the water.

Not just any old rock, sea otters often have favorite rocks they keep in a fold of skin in their armpit.

Sea otters will also rape baby seals to death and keep the corpse for a few weeks to keep fucking until it's too nasty for the otters taste. ☺️

I knew water pressure got high pretty fast, but damn, didn't know it was that fast

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I might be off here, but iirc, eater is about 1000 times denser than air, so 10 meters of water gives you the same pressure as the 10 kilometers of air above you. It goes fast.

The metric system, so convenient

[–] Bach37strad@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

10 meters of water gets you:

97.78 kPa

0.98 bar

0.96 atm

14.18 psi

733.39 mmHg

28.87 inHg

Got me curious as to what a human could survive. The record is 702 feet, but he was a professional, and he actually did an even deeper dive, 831 feet, but sustained brain damage on the way back up. This is freediving with no breathing apparatus. Most people can only go a maximum of about 60 feet or less.

How do you know it's not a river otter?

[–] Aurenkin@sh.itjust.works 49 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Pressure...pushing down on me

[–] genuineparts@infosec.pub 24 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Pushing down on you. No man asks for.

[–] Assman@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I always thought it was "no man has more"

[–] ZeffSyde@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

I always thought it was "You're an asshole".

[–] theangryseal@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Alright stop! Collaborate and listen!

[–] jawa21@lemmy.sdf.org 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ice is back with a brand new edition.

[–] theangryseal@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well damn, I thought he said invention.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Something something grabs ahold of you tightly. Flow like a harpoon daily and nightly.

[–] MajorMajormajormajor@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 year ago

Pressing down on you

[–] Snowpix@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Da da da da... Da da da da... Dadada Dadada That's okay!

[–] GluWu@lemm.ee 23 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Do do do doo do doo do

Or is this ice ice baby?

[–] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

It was probably an I Love the 90s or something like that on VH1 that remixed it with a couple more "ours goes theirs goes ours goes theirs goes" that is stuck in my mind to this day

[–] Spiralvortexisalie@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Its over 40 years old (yeah you that old) so thats why so many might get lost but Under Pressure

[–] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 5 points 1 year ago

TIL that this track featured David Bowie on it.

[–] Kelly@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

You mean that song that ripped of the guy from SVU?

[–] rudyharrelson@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I'm 33 and heard this song for the first time on the radio maybe 6 months ago and instantly thought it was Ice Ice Baby. Never realized Ice Ice Baby was sampling a Bowie/Queen song til then.

[–] MalReynolds@slrpnk.net 17 points 1 year ago

Probably an instant hire from me if it's pulled off in any significant way...

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thought I was in c/otters for a sec.

[–] Vandals_handle@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I sea what you did there 🦦

[–] kurikai@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Took me a little while. But this is good

[–] match@pawb.social 6 points 1 year ago

just like Under Pressure, it's a lot easier to perform with a partner :3

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Now stop, collaborate and listen

Ice is back with a brand new invention

[–] Cosmicomical@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lol, but on a serious note if they ask you that question it 100% means the workplace is toxic

[–] blazeknave@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Lmao accidentally read this from Steve's perspective and thought "bullshit, that's a fun place to be!.. oh.. wait.. let me read.. oh yeah, horrible."

[–] LeroyJenkins@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

is nobody gonna say it? really? you guys realize Steve is a sea otter right? sea otters are the saltwater thugs of the animal kingdom.

[–] RustyNova@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] LeroyJenkins@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I just had to say it. it was my destiny and life's work to mention the sea otter

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

So they poured him a Mickey
