Just a quick Comment, It is impossible to breath in thru a 15 ft tube
as the volume of the tube exceedes the tidal volume of the lungs
which is the same reason that a skin divers snorkle is so short,
I guess you could inhale thru your nose and exhale thru the tube but
sounds dificult to me, and hope the bees arn't around the far end of the
tube, GULP
