    I mean the dolphin story is gruesome. But for this diver to get a severe injury he must be very close to the hole, almost touching it.

    The suction power is not that great in an underwater scenario.

    What made the dolphin so gruesome is that it was an explosive decompression and besides the driver closest to the door no server dismemberment took place, only a very sudden decompression making for a very sudden yet horrid death.

    If the diver in this diagram keeps a couple of centimeters away from the opening he is completely fine but if he manages to cover the outlet hole with some of his anatomy, the shit hits the fan.

    In one detailed study of Trigona hypogea in Brazil, the vulture bees mixed sugary plant products with a proteinaceous paste from regurgitated meat, and let it mature to form a sweet substance that was used as food; however, the two resources were initially kept in separate “pots” in the colony, neither being true honey (i.e., not derived from nectar), but they were then mixed together.

    So it’s not incorporated in the honey. They have a separate protein stache.
