Canned oxygen

Post by justang1997 » Tue Jun 26, 2012 10:01 am

So I was at walmart last night and saw a new product in sporting goods. Canned pure oxygen. It was 10 bucks per can and I didn't have much time to read the can but looking on line I found it is 95% oxygen and 5% air. It has about 40 breaths and has lots of uses for athletes to recover quickly or cure headaches and hangovers.

First thing that popped in my mind was survival kit. Imagine a fire in a tall building and smoke is in the stairs or a anthrax scare if you work at a fed building.

Everyone knows the 3 days without water 3 weeks without food but forgets 3 minutes without air.

Lol. It looks like a water bottle. Which is a plus because it won't attract attention. Picture an aluminum water bottle with a cupped top. You fit it around your mouth and seal it up airtight and hit the spray trigger.

They are also very light weight. Felt empty.

So it could be emergency oxygen for a few seconds or a small, short lived defense torch weapon.

I like it.
