What year did Jacques Cousteau first attempt to build an underwater breathing device?

Sorry to say he did not invent the "one man submarine." The first "one man" submarine was invented and tested in 1620 by Cornelius Drebbel. David Bushnell then designed and used a military type one man submarine in 1775, called "The Turtle."

Is there brain damage when a baby stopped breathing and lips turned blue?
Usually brain damage begins after about 3-4 min of respiratory or cardiac arrest. However If someone has not been breathing for up to 30 minutes, then we do not usually attempt to resuscitate them as they would have horrific brain damage if they survived. Personally, if I was presented with a baby with blue lips and not breathing, I'd have other concerns than how much brain damage they have. Sorry, just being sarcastic now. Dealing with abusive drunks on a 12 hour night shift will do that to you.... :(
Try is to attempt as shiver is to?

What was the screaming Jacques Cousteau heard on his dive in Greece?
Assuming the incident actually took place it could very well have been attributible to what Cousteau had dubbed "the rapture of the deep", this is a condition related to nitrogen narcosis whereby most gasses breathed under pressure produce a narcotic effect on the brain. Hallucinations, loss of conciousness, manic laughter, terror or death are all possible effects from the condition which generally kicks in at a depth of 3om (1oo ft) with mild effects (often likened to drinking one alcholic beverage for each 3o ft below 1oo ft) increasing in severity as depth increases. Divers attempt to combat this phenomena by using mixtures of gas with less chemically reactive constituents (such as helium) which is why in some old deep sea videos you might hear the entire crew of a research vessel speaking like chipmunks (and slathering all their food in kechup because they can't taste much else). There are limits to how much we can compensate under such pressures however and oxygen toxicity (which may pose long lasting health problems) is also another concern for the explorers of the deep. I have heard this incident supposedly took place during a very deep dive, and there are those who like to attribute this tale to the existence of "Hell". While I suppose there are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in my philosophy, and it would certainly be a really cool story (hey what if it was Hell, or some Great Old One or some type of ancient creature?!) I attempt first to seek out more mundane, entirely plausible explanations. They comfort me so. Best of luck to you readers and do look into nitrogen narcosis or "The Rapture of the Deep" (trust Costuea to come up with such a great, poetic name), some of the stories from deep sea divers are truly fascinating.

What are movies that are based on the life of cousteau?
Ciousteau himself produced ( The Silent World) a documentary starring, in a very real sense, the S.S. Calypso, in ther early fifties..Not, as the title hints a silent film. The problem of non-transmission of sound underwater was a tactical handicap to underwater films- not set on a submarine or diving bell. ( Cousteau and crew manned one of the these- the Conshelf III,. Cousteau"s French accent had my dad and I guessing if this possibly meant Conch Shell ( which is a sort of chamber) no.3) it meant Continental Shelf III,. Cousteau relied on voiced over narration to plug the( Silence) gap- a technique that did not always work- no attempt was made to Americanize the explorer.

What types of headphones work underwater?
There are new headphones called h2o audio. These are the only head phones the will work underwater because they have a protective waterproof material. It is not suggested to attempt using basic headphones underwater because they will fail.

Because religion is a worldwide tradition and a human need like breathing or drinking.
Can anyone sleep under the water?
To be able to sleep underwater, you would need to have very advanced equipment to help you cope with the conditions. For example a wetsuit, and oxygen tank/mask of some sort, and other things. But if you were to randomly attempt to sleep underwater, you would drown.
What is scuba diving used for?
S.C.U.B.A. is an acronym for Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus. No one should attempt to use scuba gear unless they are trained. While scuba is a safe sport, proper training is required. Check with your local clubs for instruction courses.
Can diving beetles breathe underwater?
While you could try, it is not recommended. If you attempt to take a Beetle underwater without specialised modifications, the car will most likely be unable to function because cars do not have gills.
