Reply to comment by Scott_Abrams in Could being submersed in a sealed tank of fluid help humans survive heavy G acceleration in outer space? by cheeze_whiz_shampoo

I remembered a scene from the 1989 movie The Abyss where they used Oxygenated Perfluorocarbon on a rat for real before faking a scene where humans used it to survive going under the ocean so deep.

YouTube “Classified Breathing Fluid The Abyss” to watch it ( although I personally find it upsetting as I am a pet rat owner)
