Bubble Boy

So I was sitting here at the computer, working on my fantasy baseball team, and my brother asked me if the bigger bubbles in the fish tank go up faster than the smaller ones (The fish tank is less than a foot to the left of the monitor). I thought about it for a second and told him that the smaller ones are probably faster because they don't deform like the big ones do. I mean, I'm sure they deform somewhat and aren't totally spherical, but the big ones really mushroom out and wobble the whole way up. The smaller ones generally follow a more direct route to the top.

Anyways, we're pretty sure the smaller ones go faster upon close inspection.

This got me thinking. What if you had a super huge bubble underwater. Being so big, it would probably go up really slow. Like slow enough for me to beat it to the top if I really tried.

Well, what would happen if I brought a huge balloon to the bottom of a lake or shallow ocean. Like a balloon that was like 8 or 10 feet in diameter. Then, pop it while I was down there with it. Do you think that I could stick my head into the bubble and breathe the air on the way up? I know that only my head would be able to stay in there and I'd have to swim up really hard with the rest of my body, but I'm pretty sure I could keep my head in there. Inside the bubble! That would be so friggin' rad!

I wonder why nobody has thought of this already.

Yeah...I wonder...

Retard.
