First diving helmets
Hi all, wondering if it would be beneficial to amend the section about Edmond Halley's diving bell to include mention that the first true diving helmets were also invented by him, and would have been attached to the air supply inside the diving bell. This is often credited to the Deane brothers, who did create the first well-known and commercially-available design. Halley's were very much simple buckets attached to a hose. I'll work on finding good sources, but diagrams should be accessible if you google "Edmond Halley diving helmets". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Divingenthusiast2005 (talk • contribs) 14:56, 20 May 2022 (UTC)
