At the beginning of the film, Richard Egan's voice-over twice specifies that the gas in his SCUBA tank is "oxygen." His tanks contain compressed air, which is approximately 79% nitrogen and 21% oxygen. If they contained pure oxygen, the diver would likely experience oxygen toxicity and go into convulsions within a short period of time at about 20 feet, and even more quickly at deeper depths.
