  • Emile Gagnan and Jacques Cousteau were not inventors of aqua lung, they just developed it. Aqua lung was invented much earlier by other gentlemen, I don't remember the names, but I'm certain. Please check this information. 20.27 & 20:28, 28 March 2007 User:4.68.249.1
  • A similar breathing set was developed in the 1860's by Rouquayrol and Denayrouze, and it had a demand valve, but it was later forgotten. Cousteau and Gagnan did (re-)invent it. Anthony Appleyard 21:29, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
