A diver's bell is used underwater. Why do you want to have one in your curry? Perhaps you meant you wanted to try the local curry in a diving bell? I am not sure how many studies have been done on eating curry underwater, but commercial saturation divers have to eat. I'm sure the food they get is pretty tasteless, so perhaps your studies on curry eating in diver's bells could show them an easy way to spice up their vittles?


(ok, ok, I'm done making fun of your grammatical and spelling errors, I promise! (wouldn't complain if you worked on them a little though) Try Death Bell for a silly single diver air bell. If you wanted to make one, please keep in mind the oxygen content of the air inside the bell. If it gets low enough, anyone breathing the air in the bell will quickly suffer from hypoxia and faces consequences such as death. Many places with air bells pump air down from a compressor. Otherwise, I'd be very very careful about breathing the air in one. )

Actually, are you asking where they are usually used because you saw one in a quarry? Or are you asking where are places that have them installed for divers to use.

I know Blue Grotto in Florida has a sort of dive bell that they pump air down to. It's not nearly as cool as you'd think as the sound reverberates so much that it's really unpleasant to hold a conversation in there.

I've been in caverns that have an air space you can get up into and to be honest, they're very noisy. Even without talking it sounds like a freight train in there. Neat, but noisy.

No doubt, and if they aren't being provided with air from a compressor somewhere you almost definitely dont want to try out the air that's there...
